Royal THCV
Royal THCV Strain Overview
Royal THCV is a unique cannabis strain bred by Royal Queen Seeds through the crossing of a pure African sativa with Durban Haze, specifically selected for its elevated THCV content. This resulted in a genetic profile of 95% sativa and 5% indica, making it a predominantly sativa-dominant hybrid. The strain produces a rare 1:1 ratio cannabinoid profile containing 7% THC and 7% THCV, which is exceptionally high for THCV content compared to most cannabis varieties that only contain trace amounts of this novel cannabinoid.
THCV is a rare cannabinoid found in certain South African genetics, particularly in Durban Haze lineages. Royal THCV joins strains like Durban Poison, Jack the Ripper, and Doug's Varin as one of the few cultivars with notably high THCV levels. As one of the most unique cultivars in the Royal Queen Seeds catalog, this strain offers something that most other varieties lack: high levels of novel cannabinoids. The strain represents a significant breeding achievement in cannabis genetics, specifically designed to showcase the unique properties of tetrahydrocannabivarin alongside traditional THC.

Royal THCV Strain Growing Information
Indoor cultivation yields plants reaching 80-120cm in height with a flowering period of 9-10 weeks and yields of 500-550g per m². Outdoor plants can reach 180cm and produce 425-475g per plant, ready for harvest in late October. The strain preserves many growth traits of its African sativa parent, growing tall during vegetative phase and stretching significantly during flowering, making outdoor cultivation in large open spaces recommended. Some growers report this strain being quite sensitive and taking longer than other Royal Queen Seeds varieties. For indoor growing, consider flipping to 12/12 lighting 1-2 weeks earlier than normal and employ regular pruning, defoliation, and training to control growth. Difficulty level is intermediate to advanced due to its sativa-dominant nature and height management requirements.
