Cheetah Piss

Also known as: Funky Kitty

Breeder: Cookies / Growing Passion

Cheetah Piss is a balanced hybrid from the Cookies catalog, crossing Lemonnade, Gelato 42, and London Poundcake 97. Named as an homage to the classic Cat Piss strain of the early 2000s, it delivers a sophisticated terpene-heavy profile that combines sharp ammonia-citrus funk with creamy dessert sweetness. Expect a fast-hitting cerebral euphoria that settles into non-sedating full-body relaxation — a true all-day strain. With THC commonly landing between 20–26%, Cheetah Piss offers a potent but functional experience driven by a complex terpene profile led by caryophyllene, limonene, and humulene.

Lineage & Genetics

Cross: Lemonnade x Gelato 42 x London Poundcake 97

Lemonnade is a sativa-leaning Cookies family strain known for its bright lemon-citrus terpene profile and energizing cerebral effects. It contributes the sharp citrus and ammonia top notes that define Cheetah Piss's nose. Gelato 42 is a phenotype of Gelato (Sunset Sherbet x Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies) known for its creamy dessert sweetness and balanced effects. London Poundcake 97 (also known as London Pound Cake #97) is a Cookies strain with heavy, dense buds and a sweet, grape-cake aroma. It brings wide leaf sets, dense internodal spacing, and the creamy dessert backbone to the cross.

Cheetah Piss is a balanced hybrid from the Cookies catalog, crossing Lemonnade, Gelato 42, and London Poundcake 97. Named as an homage to the classic Cat Piss strain of the early 2000s, it delivers a sophisticated terpene-heavy profile that combines sharp ammonia-citrus funk with creamy dessert sweetness. Expect a fast-hitting cerebral euphoria that settles into non-sedating full-body relaxation — a true all-day strain.

Environment & Climate Cheetah Piss excels indoors where temperature and humidity can be precisely controlled. It also performs well outdoors in warm, dry Mediterranean climates with long summers and low rainfall. Avoid humid coastal or tropical environments — the dense bud structure is mold-prone without excellent airflow.

Plant Structure & Training Plants are medium to tall with noticeable stretch during early flower, showing wide leaf sets from the Poundcake lineage and dense internodal spacing. Low-stress training (LST) or a SCROG net is strongly recommended to manage canopy height, improve light penetration, and maximize the number of flowering sites. Top once or twice during veg to encourage lateral branching.

Feeding & Nutrition Run moderate nitrogen through veg and taper off entering flower. Increase potassium during weeks 6-10 and supplement with calcium mid-flower to support the heavy trichome production. Cheetah Piss responds well to both soil and hydro but needs a dialed feeding schedule — overfeeding burns terpenes and locks out flavor expression.

Flowering & Harvest Flowering runs 8-10 weeks indoors depending on phenotype. Buds swell noticeably around weeks 6-8 with the signature ammonia-citrus aroma intensifying from mid-flower onward. Outdoors, harvest in late September through mid-October. Watch trichomes carefully — the creeping effects mean the plant can look ready before peak terpene maturity.

Terpene Preservation This strain's value is its terpene complexity. Lower humidity to 40-45% in late flower. Drop nighttime temps to 65-68°F to stress terpene expression. Increase airflow to prevent terpene volatilization from heat buildup in the canopy. These steps preserve the full ammonia-citrus-cream layering that defines the cultivar.

Drying & Curing Slow dry at 60°F / 60% RH for 10-14 days — rushing the dry flattens the citrus top notes and leaves only the diesel. Cure in glass jars at 58-62% RH for at least 2-3 weeks, burping daily for the first week. Properly cured Cheetah Piss develops that signature layered nose: citrus first, cream second, funk last.

Yield & Bud Quality Yields are medium to medium-high. Expect dense, boutique-style buds with bright neon-green coloring, orange pistils, and a thick coating of golden amber trichomes. Indoor yields run roughly 0.5 oz/sq ft; outdoor plants can produce 5-10 oz per plant with adequate root zones and full sun.

Pest & Disease Notes The dense, resinous bud structure makes Cheetah Piss susceptible to botrytis in humid conditions. Maintain strong airflow throughout the canopy, defoliate lower interior growth during weeks 2-3 of flower, and monitor closely after any rain events outdoors. Clean, consistent environments are essential for this cultivar.

History & Origin

Cheetah Piss was developed by Growing Passion in collaboration with Cookies, the iconic San Francisco cannabis brand founded by Berner. The strain is a three-way cross of Lemonnade, Gelato 42, and London Poundcake 97 — all members of the extended Cookies genetic family. Named as an homage to the classic Cat Piss strain of the early 2000s, Cheetah Piss quickly gained recognition for its pungent ammonia-citrus funk and sophisticated terpene complexity. It has become a staple on Cookies menus and dispensary shelves across legal markets.
