Ghost Valley
Also known as: Ghost Valley OG
Ghost Valley Strain Overview
Ghost Valley is a relatively modern hybrid cannabis strain that emerged in the early 2010s from the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. The strain's exact origins are somewhat obscure, with multiple breeders claiming development, though most sources trace it to Oregon-based cultivators who sought to create a balanced hybrid with distinctive aromatic qualities. The name references both its ghostly pale trichome coverage and its purported development in a secluded valley region known for clandestine cannabis cultivation.
The strain is characterized by dense, conical buds that display a striking contrast between dark forest green foliage and a thick coating of frosty white trichomes, giving the appearance of a light dusting of snow. Orange pistils weave through the buds, creating visual appeal. Ghost Valley plants typically exhibit moderate to high resin production, making them popular among concentrate producers. The strain has gained a following in both medical and recreational markets for its balanced effects and complex flavor profile.
Notable features include its adaptability to various growing environments and its relatively consistent performance across phenotypes. While not as widely distributed as some commercial hybrids, Ghost Valley has maintained a dedicated following among connoisseurs who appreciate its nuanced effects and aromatic complexity. The strain's genetic stability has made it a favorite among home growers seeking reliable results with moderate cultivation difficulty.

Ghost Valley Strain Growing Information
Ghost Valley is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants have a flowering time of 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests typically ready in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-700 grams per plant under optimal conditions.
The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor growing, though it thrives in controlled indoor environments where temperature and humidity can be carefully managed. Plants typically reach a medium height of 120-180 cm indoors, with outdoor specimens sometimes exceeding 200 cm. Ghost Valley responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training (LST) to maximize yield and manage height.
Special considerations include maintaining good air circulation to prevent mold in the dense buds, particularly in the final weeks of flowering. The plants prefer a consistent nutrient regimen with moderate feeding levels. Some phenotypes may exhibit slight sensitivity to nutrient burn, so careful monitoring is recommended. The strain shows good resistance to common pests and molds when grown in proper conditions.
