DankStar
DankStar Strain Overview
DankStar is a relatively modern hybrid cannabis strain that emerged in the early 2010s, though its exact origins remain somewhat obscure within the cannabis breeding community. The strain appears to have been developed by boutique breeders seeking to create a balanced hybrid with pronounced aromatic qualities and reliable effects. Its name references both its notably pungent aroma ('dank') and its stellar reputation among connoisseurs for quality.
The strain typically produces medium-sized, dense buds that are forest green with occasional purple hues, especially when exposed to cooler temperatures during cultivation. The flowers are heavily coated in trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance, and feature vibrant orange pistils. DankStar is known for its complex aroma profile that combines earthy, skunky base notes with sweeter, fruitier undertones, creating a distinctive scent that is often described as both pungent and appealing.
While not as widely documented as some mainstream commercial strains, DankStar has developed a following among experienced users who appreciate its balanced effects and complex flavor. The strain's genetics appear to be carefully selected for consistency, though specific lineage details are not universally agreed upon in breeding circles. Its moderate growth characteristics and reliable flowering make it accessible to cultivators of various experience levels.

DankStar Strain Growing Information
DankStar is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in mid to late October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields are average to above average, producing approximately 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can yield 500-600 grams per plant in favorable environments.
The strain prefers a controlled indoor environment but can also thrive outdoors in Mediterranean-like climates with consistent temperatures. Plants tend to be medium in height, usually reaching 3-4 feet indoors and 5-6 feet outdoors. DankStar requires good air circulation to prevent mold due to its dense bud structure, and benefits from regular pruning to ensure light penetration to lower branches. The plants respond well to both soil and hydroponic growing methods, though soil often enhances the flavor profile.
