Star Triangle
Also known as: Star Triangle OG, Star Triangle Kush
Star Triangle Strain Overview
Star Triangle is a relatively modern hybrid cannabis strain that emerged from the West Coast cannabis breeding scene in the early 2010s. The strain's exact origins are somewhat debated among cultivators, but most sources agree it represents a carefully selected cross between established genetics. Breeders aimed to create a balanced hybrid that combined the cerebral effects of sativa-dominant strains with the physical relaxation of indica varieties, resulting in a versatile cultivar that has gained popularity in both medical and recreational markets.
The strain's name references both its celestial-inspired effects and its triangular bud structure. Star Triangle plants typically produce dense, conical-shaped buds that are often described as having a 'starry' appearance due to the abundant trichome coverage that gives the flowers a frosty, crystalline look. The buds are usually medium to large in size with a compact structure, featuring hues ranging from deep forest green to occasional purple undertones, complemented by vibrant orange pistils. The visual appeal is enhanced by the resinous coating that makes the buds appear to sparkle under light.
Notable characteristics include its complex aromatic profile and balanced effects. Star Triangle has gained recognition for its consistency when grown under proper conditions, though some variation can occur depending on phenotype expression. The strain remains more popular in certain regional markets than others, with particularly strong followings in California and Colorado where it was initially developed and distributed.

Star Triangle Strain Growing Information
Star Triangle is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, making it better suited for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors and are ready for outdoor harvest in late September to early October in the Northern Hemisphere. 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 climates.
The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor cultivation but tends to perform better in controlled indoor environments where temperature and humidity can be carefully managed. Plants typically reach a medium height of 4-5 feet indoors and 5-7 feet outdoors. Star Triangle 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 most training techniques including topping and low-stress training (LST). Nutrient requirements are moderate, with some phenotypes showing sensitivity to overfeeding during the flowering stage.
