Velvet (Sativa Dominant Hybrid) – 3 oz for $225

Velvet Bud is visually very impressive, standing out with medium to large, well-formed flowers. These buds range in shape from roughly spherical to more elongated and cylindrical. Although genetically mostly sativa, these flowers adhere in a dense, characteristically indica structure, with small leaves that curl tightly inward toward their central stems. The leaves themselves are a dark shade of forest green, although some phenotypes can boast surprising flashes of deep purple. These latter colors come about thanks to pigments called anthocyanins, which are activated by cold weather during the growing process. Finally, Velvet Bud’s flowers are coated in resinous trichomes that make them more sticky than velvety to the touch.
