91 Octane: The Ultimate Fuel Injection
91 Octane: The Ultimate Fuel Injection
Strain Overview
Type: Indica-Dominant Hybrid (80% Indica / 20% Sativa)
Breeder: Exotic Genetix
Lineage: Biscotti x Scotty 2 Hotty
Market Status: The "Supercharged Classic"; 91 Octane was released as part of the massive Scotty 2 Hotty drop. It serves a very specific purpose in the lineup: to maximize the "Gas" potential of the Biscotti lineage. By crossing the legendary Biscotti mother with the Scotty 2 Hotty father (which is itself a Biscotti cross), Breeder Mike essentially created a Biscotti Backcross. The result is a plant that doubles down on the savory, roasted fuel traits of the mother, creating a smoke that smells like a coffee shop located inside a gas station.
THC Content: Very High (24% – 29%)
Dominant Terpenes: Caryophyllene, Myrcene, Limonene, Humulene
Key Effects: Narcotic Sedation, Heavy "Headband" Pressure, Muscle Relief, Deep Sleep
91 Octane is a fuel lover's dream.
It is not a fruity strain, and it isn't trying to be "candy." It is a savory, heavy, industrial smoke designed for people who want their cannabis to smell offensive in the best way possible. It takes the sophisticated coffee/chocolate notes of Biscotti and drenches them in raw, unleaded gasoline.
History and Lineage: The Biscotti Backcross
This strain is a "line breeding" project designed to reinforce specific traits—namely, the gas and the density.
The Mother (Biscotti): The Bay Area icon (South Florida OG x Gelato #25). Famous for its sweet cookies, roasted coffee, and heavy diesel aroma. It is a low yielder but a high-quality smoke.
The Father (Scotty 2 Hotty): The Exotic Genetix stud (Biscotti x Rainbow Chip). As we know, this male adds vigor, density, and color. But crucially, because it already contains Biscotti genetics, crossing it back to the Biscotti mother reinforces the Biscotti traits.
The Synthesis: 91 Octane is essentially "Biscotti on Steroids." It retains the delicious flavor of the mother but grows with the aggression and yield of the father. The double dose of Biscotti genetics ensures the terpene profile is overwhelmingly gassy and nutty.
Terpene Profile: Coffee, Leather, and Gas
The aroma of 91 Octane is dark and rich. It smells "expensive" and heavy.
Dominant Terpenes
Caryophyllene (The Fuel): The dominant terpene. It provides a sharp peppery, spicy diesel kick that hits the nose immediately.
Myrcene (The Musk): Adds a heavy earthy, herbal, and balsamic base that gives the smoke a "chewy" texture.
Limonene (The Sweetness): Provides a subtle burnt citrus rind note that brightens up the heavy fuel, preventing it from smelling flat.
Flavor Notes:
The Aroma: It is pungent and savory. It smells of spilled gasoline, roasted espresso beans, and worn leather.
The Smoke: Thick and oily. It tastes of nutty dough, dark chocolate, and spicy fuel. It leaves a coating on the palate that lingers for a long time.
Strain Effects: The Full Tank
91 Octane is a "nighttime only" strain. It is heavy, sedative, and potent.
The Experience
The Fumes: The high hits instantly with a feeling of pressure behind the eyes. It is a disorienting, stony onset that feels like a rush of fuel to the brain.
The Idle: Very quickly, the cerebral rush settles into a hazy contentment. You feel happy, but your mental processing speed slows down.
The Park: The Indica genetics take over completely. A wave of heavy physical relaxation washes over the body. You feel glued to your seat.
The Shutdown: This is a sleep-inducing strain. It is perfect for turning off the lights and crashing after a long, stressful week.
Best For: Severe insomnia, chronic pain, muscle recovery, high stress, and "lazy Sundays."
Growing 91 Octane: The Dense Machine
Growers love this strain because it offers the Biscotti quality without the Biscotti yield issues.
Growth Structure
The Yield: Moderate to High. It yields significantly better than the original Biscotti mother. It produces rock-hard, golf-ball-sized nuggets.
The Structure: It grows Short and Bushy. It stays relatively squat, making it great for indoor tents with limited height.
The Colors: It is a dark plant. The leaves turn deep olive green and purple, and the buds are often dark, contrasting with the bright orange pistils.
The Frost: It is covered in greasy resin. The trichomes are sticky and oily, not dry or sandy.
The Time: It finishes flowering in 8 to 9 weeks.
Grower’s Tip: Because the buds are so dense and the plant is so bushy, airflow is critical. You must defoliate the interior of the plant to prevent stagnant air pockets. Also, this strain loves Magnesium—keep it fed to prevent purple stems and yellowing leaves.
Final Verdict: The Double Dose of Diesel
91 Octane is the ultimate expression of the Biscotti lineage. It takes the roasted coffee and gas profile that everyone loves and turns the volume up to maximum. It offers a smoke that is savory, rich, and undeniably potent. If you are looking for a strain that tastes like a premium espresso shot mixed with high-octane fuel, fill up your tank with 91 Octane.
You should choose 91 Octane if:
You love Biscotti/Coffee flavors.
You want Heavy Sedation.
You want "Gas" over "Fruit."
You have a High Tolerance.
