Katsu Pupil
Also known as: Katsu Pupil F1
Katsu Pupil Strain Overview
Katsu Pupil is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain (approximately 70% indica/30% sativa) created through a collaboration between Mass Medical Strains and Katsu Seeds. This strain was developed by crossing Katsu Bubba Kush with the signature Star Pupil strain, combining the heavy narcotic effects of the legendary Pre-98 Bubba Kush lineage with the euphoric, uplifting qualities of Star Pupil. The collaboration resulted in a potent strain that adds purple coloration, hybrid vigor, and the distinctive "pupil funk" characteristics to the renowned Bubba Kush genetics. The strain exhibits dense, spade-shaped olive green buds with bright purple undertones, thick red-orange hairs, and chunky purple-tinted white crystal trichomes. Katsu Pupil is known for producing super frosty and dense buds with varying degrees of purple coloration - some phenotypes display solid purple throughout while others show green with purple streaks, contributing to exceptional bag appeal. The strain typically flowers in 7-9 weeks, with some fast-finishing phenotypes ready in as little as 49 days, though most require the full 9 weeks for optimal development.

Katsu Pupil Strain Growing Information
Katsu Pupil can be cultivated indoors, outdoors, and in greenhouse environments. The strain has a flowering time of approximately 7-9 weeks (49-63 days), with some phenotypes finishing as early as 7 weeks while most benefit from the full 9-week cycle. Plants exhibit vigorous, bushy growth characteristics and respond well to training techniques like SCRoG (Screen of Green). The strain prefers moderate difficulty cultivation and benefits from proper support due to dense bud production. Indoor yields are moderate to high, and the plant structure is indica-dominant with good branching. Purple coloration typically begins around day 14 of flowering. Plants are relatively resilient but may show occasional late-flowering hermaphroditic traits that require monitoring.
