Velvet Thunder
Velvet Thunder Strain Overview
Velvet Thunder is an indica-dominant hybrid strain created by Trichome Orchards through a complex breeding project. The strain is the result of crossing Chimera #3 (Beleaf cut) with Black Velvet, where Black Velvet itself is a hybrid of Oreoz and Devil Driver (Clearwater cut). This multi-generational breeding approach creates a strain with sophisticated genetics and diverse characteristics. The strain displays an attractive appearance with flowers that are dense and tightly packed, showcasing a mix of greens and deep purples with terracotta-toned pistils. Buds are heavily coated in trichomes and exhibit expected colors ranging from pinks to deep dark purples. The aroma profile is particularly notable, combining wine and berry notes with expected flavors of berries, cider, and interestingly, nail polish remover - indicating a complex terpene profile. Users report that Velvet Thunder produces a steady, euphoric energy without typical sativa jitters, creating mental calm while maintaining alertness. The effects are described as fast-hitting with a cerebral lift that clears the head, boosts mood, and facilitates conversation while easing the body into gentle relaxation.
