Manufacturer Information
Genetics & Origin of California Octane
California Octane comes from the Humboldt Seed Company and goes back to three parent lines: Dream Queen, I-369 and Papaya. According to the breeder, the strain inherited its distinctive terpene profile from them. The manufacturer lists it as a hybrid with an Indica tendency; it does not state exact percentages. It gives the average THC content as 26%; a CBD value is missing. The plants grow medium-sized, have robust branches and form densely stacked, pyramid-shaped flowers covered by a thick layer of aromatic, sticky resin. The seeds are feminised and photoperiod, so they only flower after the light cycle is switched to 12/12. In our range, the strain is also available as California Octane Triploid.
