San Fernando Valley Strain Info

San Fernando Valley is an Indica-dominant strain that has a stimulating but relaxing blend of effects and a vivid sweet flavor. It works great for those who need pain relief while keeping the mind clear, all without getting glued to the couch as with many Indica hybrids. SFV has earned such a good rep for itself that it came in third in the Indica category at the 2012 High Times Cannabis Cup.

Genetics

One of the best-selling U.S. strains, SFV started out as a phenotype of the legendary OG Kush. Word has it that the breeder Swerve, founder of The Cali Connection seed bank, was the first to cross it with an Afghani landrace. It didn't take much longer before everyone else found out about it too!

Flowering Time

For an average indoor grow, San Fernando Valley takes anywhere between 56-70 days to flower after you switch your light schedule to 12/12. If you’re growing outdoors, you’ll have to wait until late October for the perfect harvesting window.

Yields

When it comes to harvests, SFV is a high yielder that produces dank, resinous buds. Indoors, this weed can yield about 1.15 oz/ft² (350 g/m²), or expect 1.1 lb (500 g) per plant outdoors.

Effects

When smoked, SFV buds immediately cause a warm sense of relief reaching your head and giving you a delightful euphoric buzz that goes on to fill your body with tranquility and drowsiness. Best suited for evening-time use, this strain can make muscle aches and sleep problems a thing of the past.

Medical Properties

The cerebral buzz produced by San Fernando Valley can help with common mental disorders such as anxiety and stress. Not only does it reduce stress levels, but it also has analgesic (pain-killing) and anti-inflammatory properties that can come in handy when managing symptoms of arthritis, migraines, cramps, or muscle spasms.

THC and CBD Levels

Depending on the cultivation methods used, San Fernando Valley can contain up to 23-25% THC, while CBD content is typically negligible.

Smell and Taste

San Fernando Valley sports an aroma reminiscent of a musty Skunk, with tropical and sweet notes also present. The taste that hits your tongue when smoking this weed is fruity, with a strong essence of lime and lemon. It's so delicious that not everyone can resist another toke.

Grow Tips

Thanks to its Indica genes, the crops are relatively easy to manage and are resistant to pests, mold, and diseases. They thrive indoors but can also be grown outdoors, where the climate should be mild and dry with a lot of sunlight, as in the place that gave this strain its name. The plants don’t grow very large for an Indica hybrid, reaching 4-5 feet (120-150 cm) under optimal conditions.

• This herb is a great choice for growing in a SOG (Sea of Green) setup.
• When growing indoors, it thrives in both soil and hydroponic growing mediums.
• Make sure to prune and trim your plants to maximize the development of the colas.
