Velvet Octane exhibits strong lateral branching, which promotes the formation of large spikelets in the later stages of flowering. The complex terpene profile, primarily composed of beta-myrcene and beta-caryophylline, manifests itself through sharp and piercing gas fumes, accompanied by a deep aroma of spicy black pepper and lemon citrus essence.
Strong cerebral effects are highlighted by a powerful combination of terpenes that create a very long-lasting effect, making this strain great for evening use.
Fast growth early in the vegetative cycle allows for larger, more vigorous growth than standard OG Kush strains. Nutrient intake is above average, but nitrogen intake remains moderate.
Indoors, 6-9 plants per square meter are acceptable, depending on the size of the pot and the growing season. In the early stages of flowering, the crown will need to be thinned to allow better light penetration once the crown closes. Thorough cleaning of growth under the first and secondary layers of the canopy is necessary to maximize bud production.
Direct flowering a few weeks after germination is suitable for Sea Of Green style growing. Indoor and outdoor growing requires the use of support structures (trellising) to aid in the final stages of development.
