Layover
Layover Strain Overview
Layover is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain developed by the breeder Compound Genetics. The strain was created by crossing the popular strains Gelato 41 and Kush Mints, resulting in a genetic profile that combines the best characteristics of both parent strains. Layover emerged in the late 2010s as part of the modern wave of designer hybrids that emphasize both potency and complex flavor profiles. The strain has gained recognition primarily within connoisseur circles and has been featured in several cannabis competitions, though it remains less widely distributed than some of its more famous relatives.
The strain's appearance is characterized by dense, resinous buds that display a striking color palette. The nugs typically feature deep purple and forest green hues, often accentuated by vibrant orange pistils and a thick coating of frosty trichomes. The buds are usually medium to large in size with a tight, indica-dominant structure. Layover's visual appeal is one of its notable features, with the colorful presentation making it particularly photogenic and recognizable to experienced users.
Layover is known for its complex aromatic profile that combines sweet, earthy, and minty notes. The strain's effects are typically described as well-balanced, offering both cerebral stimulation and physical relaxation without excessive sedation. Growers appreciate Layover for its relatively manageable cultivation requirements compared to some other modern hybrids, though it does require attention to environmental conditions to achieve optimal results. The strain represents a contemporary approach to cannabis breeding that prioritizes both aesthetic qualities and user experience.

Layover Strain Growing Information
Layover is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, requiring some experience to achieve optimal results. The flowering time typically ranges from 8 to 10 weeks when grown indoors. Outdoor plants are usually ready for harvest in late September to early October in the Northern Hemisphere. The strain prefers a controlled indoor environment but can also be grown outdoors in Mediterranean climates with consistent temperatures. Plants tend to remain medium in height, making them suitable for indoor cultivation with limited vertical space. Expected yields are moderate to high with proper care, particularly when using training techniques like topping or low-stress training. Special considerations include maintaining stable temperature and humidity levels, as the dense buds can be susceptible to mold if ventilation is inadequate. Nutrient requirements are moderate, with particular attention needed during the flowering phase to support bud development.
