Hash Star
Also known as: Hashstar
Hash Star Strain Overview
Hash Star is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain developed by the breeder DNA Genetics. The strain was created by crossing two classic indica varieties: Sensi Star and Hash Plant. This combination brings together the potent resin production of Hash Plant with the robust structure and powerful effects of Sensi Star, resulting in a strain that lives up to its name with exceptional hash-making qualities.
The plant typically displays dense, chunky buds with a frosty coating of trichomes that gives it a sparkling appearance. The coloration ranges from deep forest green to sometimes purple hues, with vibrant orange pistils weaving through the compact flower structure. The buds are often rock-hard and resinous, making them ideal for extraction purposes. The strain's name reflects its heritage and primary characteristic—it produces copious amounts of resin with a consistency and quality reminiscent of traditional hashish.
Hash Star has gained recognition among both recreational users and medical patients for its balanced yet potent effects. While it maintains indica dominance in its genetic makeup, some phenotypes may express slightly different ratios of indica to sativa characteristics. The strain is particularly noted for its reliability in cultivation and consistent performance across different growing environments, making it a favorite among growers seeking predictable results with traditional indica traits.

Hash Star Strain Growing Information
Hash Star is considered a moderately easy strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The flowering time typically ranges from 8 to 9 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in late September to early October in the Northern Hemisphere. Indoor yields are substantial, often producing 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can yield 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions.
The plant prefers indoor cultivation where environmental factors can be controlled, though it can also thrive outdoors in Mediterranean or similar climates. Hash Star tends to remain relatively compact, with indoor plants reaching 80-120 cm in height and outdoor plants growing to 150-180 cm. The strain responds well to training techniques like topping and LST (low-stress training) to maximize yield. Special considerations include maintaining good air circulation around the dense buds to prevent mold and providing adequate support during late flowering as the resinous buds become heavy.
