How to grow Velvet Octane
Seb's take
Afghan OG and Geist OG, selected down to a more compact plant than most OG Kush relatives, with broad fan leaves shading purple. The high keeps the dreamy character of both parents but sits mostly in the head rather than the body.
Growing Velvet Octane: what to expect
Feminized photoperiod stock. You control when she flowers, which is a responsibility as much as a convenience; the light schedule guide keeps you on the right side of it.
She takes a conventional 8 weeks to flower. Conventional is underrated; so is knowing what week you're in.
At around 400 cm, headroom is the whole conversation. Measure your tent, then measure it again — the light planner will keep the light off her canopy.
Expect 450 – 600 g/m² — a working grower's yield, reliable rather than theatrical. The harvest guide will see it in safely.
Listed at 21% THC — potent, verifiably. The figure comes from the breeder's testing, not from our enthusiasm.
