Jilly Bean -- a cross between a female Orange Velvet cut and pollen from a Space Queen male -- was created and bred indoors at West Coast seed bank TGA Genetics by co-founders Subcool and
MzJill. Subcool told Weedmaps they picked up the Orange Velvet clone, called “Melvin” at the time, roughly around 2006 from a nearby family that had the mother plant. They crossed the female with
their own Space Queen male, which was the last remaining seeds of its kind left at the time.
