Shuriken
Shuriken Strain Overview
Shuriken is a cannabis strain developed by Waffle House Genetics, featuring a complex three-way genetic lineage that combines (Star Pupil × Weapon X) × Super Silver Cough. This hybrid strain represents the convergence of purple genetics from Mass Medical Strains' Star Pupil and Weapon X breeding with Dynasty Genetics' Super Silver Cough, which is itself a cross of The Cough and Super Silver Haze F3. The strain takes its name from the traditional Japanese throwing weapon, reflecting its sharp, cutting-edge genetics and potentially potent effects.
The genetic foundation of Shuriken traces back to some notable cannabis lineages. Star Pupil, bred by Mass Medical Strains, is known for its purple coloration and introspective, enlightening effects. Weapon X, originally bred by CSI Humboldt and later incorporated by Mass Medical Strains, combines Mendocino Purple and Pakistani Purple genetics, contributing to the strain's purple phenotype potential. Super Silver Cough from Dynasty Genetics adds classic sativa characteristics from its Super Silver Haze heritage. Waffle House Genetics is known for focusing on breeding for unique effects and flavors, typically working with old school, heirloom, and landrace genetics to create distinctive recreational and medicinal varieties.
