Gary Payton x Oreoz

Gary Payton x Oreoz merges a high-profile Cookies cultivar with 3rd Coast Genetics’ powerhouse Oreoz, resulting in a compelling hybrid of significant collector interest. This cross brings together a celebrity-endorsed Cookies strain with an award-winning Michigan-bred cultivar, emphasizing elite lineage over typical strain characteristics:

• Gary Payton – A sought-after Cookies cultivar bred in collaboration between the Cookies brand and breeder Kenny Dumetz of Powerzzzup Genetics. Named after the NBA legend, Gary Payton combines The Y (GSC × Cherry Pie) with the elite Cookies phenotype Snowman. The Y delivers a strong Cookies heritage, reinforced by Cherry Pie’s rich lineage, while Snowman, known for its dense frost coverage, contributes potency and intense bag appeal. Released by Cookies in 2019, Gary Payton quickly became famous for its potent hybrid effects and superb genetic pedigree, earning multiple cannabis-cup accolades and widespread acclaim among connoisseurs and collectors.
• Oreoz – A standout creation from Michigan-based 3rd Coast Genetics, Oreoz blends Cookies & Cream (Starfighter × GSC by Exotic Genetix) with Secret Weapon (Cheese Quake × White Widow). Oreoz quickly gained a reputation for its remarkable resin production, striking appearance, and indulgent Cookies-inspired lineage. Its dense, frosty structure complements the robust Cookies genetics of Gary Payton, making this cross especially appealing to collectors seeking elite combinations of modern cultivars.

(Collectors note: Gary Payton was a Cookies/Powerzzzup exclusive cultivar, originally only available as a clone-only strain. Crossing it with Oreoz provides a rare seed form of Gary Payton’s genetics combined with the distinct quality of 3rd Coast Genetics’ prized Oreoz cultivar.)

Gary Payton x Oreoz is special because it pairs Cookies/Powerzzzup’s celebrity-endorsed, highly coveted hybrid Gary Payton (The Y × Snowman) with 3rd Coast Genetics’ celebrated indica-rich Oreoz. This bold combination unites two of the cannabis world’s most collectible, hype-driven genetics—perfect for connoisseurs aiming to showcase top-tier, contemporary strains in their collection.
