The Astronaut
The Astronaut Strain Overview
The Astronaut is an indica-dominant hybrid strain (80% indica/20% sativa) created through crossing the classic Skywalker OG and The Missing Link strains. This strain was specifically bred to deliver an out-of-this-world high that launches users into outer space with its heavy cerebral effects. The strain earned its space-themed name from its ability to create a lofty, head-in-the-clouds experience coupled with cushioned body relaxation. The Astronaut buds are characterized by fat and fluffy spade-shaped forest green nugs with thick orange hairs, rich amber undertones, and a coating of dusty amber crystal trichomes. With its high potency averaging 20-26% THC and minimal CBD content, The Astronaut has gained recognition among cannabis enthusiasts for its consistent flower structure, dense resin production, and modern dessert-gas flavor profile.
