Starbud Strain Overview
Starbud is an indica-dominant hybrid (75% indica/25% sativa) strain created by HortiLab Seeds, originating from a mysterious clone received from a private grower in the Midwest United States. The exact genetic lineage remains unknown due to high levels of breeder secrecy. This award-winning strain gained international recognition after winning 1st Place in the Indica category at the 2009 High Times Cannabis Cup and has collected multiple prestigious awards including 2nd place at the 2011 High Times Cannabis Cup. StarBud is known for its striking appearance, featuring thick coating of trichomes that sparkle like stars, with long and lumpy spade-shaped dark olive green buds completely coated in super shiny amber and golden hued crystal chunky trichomes. The strain produces thick, heavy, and resinous buds with potent effects, and has been described as an indica flagship strain with buds so frosty they sparkle like stars in a clear summer night.
