Headband Clone

What Is the Headband Strain?

As a indica, Headband exists in circulation as a cutting passed between growers rather than as a seed line.

Its lineage is OG Kush x Sour Diesel, bred by Dr. Greenthumb. That cross is the reason it behaves the way it does, and it is also the fastest way to guess how it will grow if you have run either parent before.

Potency is listed at 20 to 27%. Treat that as a range rather than a promise, because how you finish a plant moves that number more than most growers expect.

The dominant terpenes are limonene, the citrus-forward one, myrcene, which is the heavy, fruity note in most classic indicas and caryophyllene, the peppery one. Terpene content is what you actually smell and taste, so it tells you more about the experience than the THC figure does.

How to Grow Headband Clones

The flowering window is 9 to 10 weeks. Because you are starting from a rooted clone rather than a seed, you can add roughly two to three weeks of veg to that and have a realistic total for the run.

Indica-leaning plants like this one tend to stay short and wide, stacking nodes close together. That is easy to manage in a tent but it also means less airflow through the middle of the plant, so thin the inner growth once it fills in.

It comes off the ClonesUp bench, where the small-batch and exotic cuts live. Batches there are limited, so a strain can go out of rotation for a season.

Headband ships from ClonesUp at $89. Ordering sends you straight to that nursery, because the people who rooted the plant are the ones who should be boxing it.

However you order it, the cutting arrives as a rooted plant, generally 8 to 12 inches tall, from HLVd-tested stock and labeled with the strain name. Stock is frequently cut to order, so plan on up to two weeks from order to delivery.

Open the box the hour it lands and follow the day-one arrival routine. The first 48 hours decide the next four weeks, and the numbers that matter are specific rather than obvious.
