Black Violet
Black Violet
Overview
Black Violet is a sophisticated hybrid cannabis strain developed by Robin Hood Seeds, representing the pinnacle of modern breeding techniques. Developed during the golden era of advanced genetic manipulation in cannabis, Black Violet was designed to bring together the best attributes of both indica and sativa types under one genetic roof. Released in 2015, this strain emerged as part of Robin Hood Seeds' emphasis on creating strains that combined high yield and potency with distinct aromatic and visual signatures.
The strain exhibits near-perfect genetic balance, with statistical data from recent trials indicating a near 50/50 split in indica and sativa genetics, contributing to its versatile appeal for both recreational and medicinal consumers. Black Violet's genetic lineage represents a fascinating mix of indica and sativa genetics, originally stemming from a careful cross of robust, high-yield strains that have been selectively bred over multiple generations. The strain's visual appeal is particularly noteworthy, featuring the characteristic dark purple and black hues that give it its name, enhanced by dense trichome coverage.

Growing Information
Black Violet can be cultivated indoors, outdoors, and in greenhouses with a flowering time of approximately 70 days (10 weeks). Indoor growers should maintain temperatures between 68°F and 78°F during vegetative phase, and slightly lower during flowering to promote resin production. High-output LED lights can increase trichome production by up to 15% compared to traditional HPS lamps. For outdoor cultivation, the plant requires at least 8-10 hours of direct sunlight per day, with temperate region farmers reporting yields ranging from 400 to 500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. The strain requires proper ventilation to prevent mold and mildew, particularly due to its dense bud structure. Available only as feminized seeds, making cultivation more predictable for growers.
