What is the Stardawg strain?

Stardawg is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 25.0% THC, known for its energetic effects and chemical and citrus flavor profile.

Stardawg is a sativa-dominant hybrid cannabis strain that originated in California's Bay Area, bred by Top Dawg Seeds. This potent hybrid is a cross between Chemdawg 4 and Tres Dawg, inheriting the legendary genetics of two highly regarded parent strains. The strain gets its distinctive name from both its lineage (incorporating 'dawg' from both parents) and the dense coating of crystalline trichomes that cover its buds like twinkling stars. Stardawg typically exhibits a 60% sativa to 40% indica genetic composition, though some phenotypes may vary slightly in their indica/sativa balance. The strain gained particular recognition when its Guava phenotype won first place in the Best Sativa category at the 2012 Denver High Times Medical Cannabis Cup. Several notable phenotypes exist, including the Guava, Illuminati, Corey Haim, and Kate Upton cuts, each offering slightly different characteristics in terms of potency, flavor profile, and flowering time. Stardawg buds are characterized by their dense, popcorn-shaped structure with bright minty green coloration, olive and amber undertones, and prominent orange pistils. The strain is renowned for its exceptionally long-lasting effects, often persisting for 3+ hours, which is significantly longer than most cannabis strains.
