Caviar Mule
Also known as: Caviar Mule OG
Caviar Mule Strain Overview
Caviar Mule is a relatively rare and potent cannabis hybrid strain that emerged in the early 2010s from the West Coast cannabis scene. The strain is known for its exceptionally high THC content and unique production method that involves coating premium cannabis buds in concentrated cannabis oil (typically hash oil or live resin) and then rolling them in kief (trichome crystals). This process creates what is known as 'caviar' or 'moon rocks,' though Caviar Mule specifically refers to the strain used as the base for this preparation. The exact genetic origins are somewhat obscure in cannabis breeding records, but it is generally accepted to be a cross between high-THC indica and sativa varieties selected specifically for resin production.
The appearance of Caviar Mule buds before processing is characterized by dense, chunky nuggets with a deep forest green coloration interspersed with vibrant orange pistils. The buds are typically heavily frosted with milky white trichomes, giving them a crystalline appearance. When processed into the caviar form, the buds become dark, sticky masses completely coated in a layer of concentrated oil and kief, resembling small, irregularly shaped rocks. The strain gained attention primarily through the processed caviar product rather than as a standalone flower strain, which contributes to its limited availability in traditional bud form.
Notable features of Caviar Mule include its extreme potency, often testing between 22-28% THC in flower form and reaching 50% THC or higher when processed into caviar. The strain represents a specialized category of cannabis products designed for experienced consumers seeking maximum psychoactive effects. Due to its rarity and specialized production method, Caviar Mule is more commonly encountered in dispensaries in its processed caviar form rather than as regular cannabis flower. The strain's history is intertwined with the development of cannabis concentrates and artisanal processing techniques that gained popularity in California's medical and later adult-use markets.

Caviar Mule Strain Growing Information
Cultivation information for Caviar Mule is limited due to its rarity as a standalone strain. Most available information relates to growing the base strain before processing into caviar. The plant is considered moderately difficult to grow, requiring attention to nutrient levels and environmental controls. Flowering time is approximately 8-10 weeks indoors. Expected yields are moderate, with indoor plants producing around 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. The strain prefers controlled indoor environments where temperature and humidity can be carefully managed, though it may be grown outdoors in Mediterranean climates with warm, dry conditions. Plants typically reach medium height (100-150 cm) and benefit from training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yield. Special considerations include the need for careful curing to preserve terpene profiles and the importance of harvesting at peak trichome maturity for optimal resin production. The processed caviar version requires additional expertise in concentrate production and handling.
