indica-dominant strainBlack Velvet
According to the source, Black Velvet is an indica-dominant cross of Jealousy and Oreoz. Dark berries, creamy gas and dense, resin-rich flowers with violet coloration define the description. The dataset states a high THC level, but provides no specific effects, terpenes, flowering times or information about the responsible breeder.

Editorial profile
Black Velvet in detail
Origin & classification
Black Velvet is presented in the available source description as an indica-dominant hybrid of Jealousy and Oreoz. Unlike many strains with only similar names, the parent combination matches exactly in the description text and the raw dataset. The name fits the appearance outlined there: the flowers are described as dense, rich in resin and violet in color. “Velvet” can therefore be read as an allusion to the dark appearance and creamy-feeling aroma profile. However, no explicitly documented explanation of the name is available.
Aroma & flavour
Dark berries and creamy gas take centre stage aromatically. The berry impression provides the sweet, fruity side, while the gassy component gives the profile a distinctly sharper, fuel-like depth. The source describes these two directions together rather than as separate variants. No further flavour notes are documented. An analysis of the terpenes present is also missing. Statements about which terpene produces the berry, cream or gas notes would therefore be speculative and are not added.
Terpene profile
The flower characteristics are among the few additional details documented. A dense structure, heavy resin coverage and violet hues are mentioned. These details refer to the version described and should not be understood as a guarantee that every phenotype will look identical under all cultivation conditions. Temperature, maturity and gene expression can influence coloration in particular. The material contains no specific information about plant height, branching, yield or flowering duration. Nor can it provide a reliable basis for assessing suitability for specific growing environments.
Effect tendency
The source gives a range of 22 to 28 percent for THC. This indicates a strong potency level in the samples recorded, but remains dependent on batch and phenotype. CBD is not quantified. Specific descriptions of effects are entirely absent. Neither the indica-dominant classification nor a high laboratory value alone proves relaxation, heaviness or drowsiness. Black Velvet should therefore initially be described through its well-documented characteristics: Jealousy × Oreoz, dark berries, creamy gas, and dense, violet, resin-rich flowers. Breeder, terpenes, effects and cultivation data require further primary sources.
