Strawburst
Also known as: Strawberry Burst
Strawburst Strain Overview
Strawburst is a relatively modern hybrid cannabis strain developed through selective breeding to combine desirable traits from its parent strains. The strain first emerged in the late 2010s from breeders seeking to create a flavorful, balanced hybrid with pronounced berry characteristics. While its exact origin story varies among different seed banks, most accounts suggest it was developed by crossing Strawberry Cough with a potent indica-dominant strain, though some sources indicate different parentage.
The strain is characterized by its distinctive appearance featuring dense, conical buds with vibrant orange pistils weaving through forest green calyxes. A generous coating of trichomes gives the flowers a frosty, crystalline appearance. The buds typically have a moderate to high density, with some phenotypes displaying purple hues when exposed to cooler temperatures during cultivation. The strain's name derives from its pronounced strawberry aroma that bursts forth when the buds are broken apart.
Strawburst plants exhibit hybrid growth patterns with moderate height and branching structure. The strain has gained popularity in both recreational and medicinal cannabis communities for its balanced effects and exceptional flavor profile. While not as widely documented as some classic strains, Strawburst has developed a following among connoisseurs who appreciate its unique terpene profile and reliable effects.

Strawburst Strain Growing Information
Strawburst is considered a moderate difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-9 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields are moderate to high, averaging 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant in favorable environments.
The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor cultivation, though it thrives in controlled indoor environments where temperature and humidity can be carefully managed. Plants typically reach heights of 100-150 cm indoors and 150-200 cm outdoors. Strawburst responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training (LST) to maximize yields. The plants prefer stable temperatures between 20-26°C (68-78°F) during the flowering stage and benefit from good air circulation to prevent mold, particularly in dense bud structures. Some phenotypes may display color changes (purpling) when exposed to cooler nighttime temperatures during late flowering.
