Apart from its high levels of THC, it pairs a stimulating cerebral effect with a soothing buzz to create the perfect wake-and-bake psychedelic high.
Moreover, it is a versatile hybrid that appeals to users of varying experiences.
Information about Valley Girl:
In creating such a well-balanced hybrid, Archive Seed Bank took a cut of the original OG Kush cultivated in San Fernando Valley.
SFV OG, as it is aptly nicknamed, is a medicinal strain that boasts a powerful body high without the downtime.
It was later paired with a backcross of Face Off OG to enhance its relaxing effects and stress relieving components.
Though widely regarded as a thrill seeker’s dream, Valley Girl sustains its therapeutic value by providing temporary reprieve against multiple mental and physical health conditions.
Moreover, it is a favorite among growers for its highly resinous buds.

Though they mostly go away on their own, downing a few glasses of water will help rehydrate throughout the high.

Growing
In spite of its Indica-like structure, Valley Girl is a finicky plant. It is sensitive to fluctuations in weather, strong gusts of wind, and high levels of moisture in the air. This is not to say the plant will not thrive outdoors. Rather, it requires the special attention of a seasoned grower to bloom successfully in areas that are not as warm as the Mediterranean. For this reason, many prefer growing their batch in less volatile environments.
Grown indoors, growers from the northern hemisphere can mimic the warm, semi-humid climate of equatorial regions by adjusting factors like lighting and heat. Meanwhile, placing hygrometers all over the growing area will help monitor the temperature to humidity ratio. Though not at all tall, early topping is required for limited areas to keep the plant short.
What is necessary, however, is trimming away any parts that interfere with the circulation of light or air. Pruning away dead branches or leaves will also help distribute nutrients to healthier budding sites. Because of its hybrid structure, Valley Girl performs well in either Sea or Screen of Green method.
During the blossoming phase, Valley Girl produces dense buds look almost ghost white due to the thick coating of trichomes. Perfectly contrasting it are fiery hairs and deep green leaves that gleam from the light frosted dust.
At the moment, Valley Girl seeds are only available in regular form. For this reason, aspiring growers must soak the buds before germination. Apart from softening the hard shell, the method encourages more calyx-filled plants to grow so green thumbs do not end up with a batch made of 50% males. Applying Low-Stress Training will keep successful females from turning into hermaphrodites.
Flowering Time
Indoors
It typically takes between 8 to 9 weeks for Valley Girl to blossom. But, to get the best out of the strain, it is best to harvest the batch after 10 weeks to increase yields. Once mature, it produces 12 to 14 ounces of buds per square meter.
Outdoors
In the northern hemisphere, Valley Girl flowers between the second to the fourth week of October. However, it sometimes extends to the first week of November depending on the weather. Regardless, it yields at least 14 ounces of buds per plant.
