Tropical Starburst
Tropical Starburst Strain Overview
Tropical Starburst is a slightly indica-dominant hybrid strain (65% indica/35% sativa) that pays homage to the beloved Starburst candy through its exceptional flavor profile and balanced effects. Created through the crossing of Pineapple Express and Deep Chunk, this strain was developed by The NugLab to combine tropical fruity characteristics with robust indica genetics. Named after the iconic candy, Tropical Starburst delivers on its promise with a sweet and fruity tropical candy taste featuring mouthwatering pineapple and sour citrus notes, complemented by hints of spice and hash when the buds are broken apart.
The strain produces small, rounded olive green nuggets with bright neon undertones, thin light orange hairs, and a generous coating of tiny, frosty white crystal trichomes. The visual appeal matches the sensory experience, making it a popular choice among both recreational and medical users. Tropical Starburst is known for its slow-burning effects that gradually creep into both mind and body, creating a building sensation of euphoria and physical relaxation. The strain's unique terpene profile, dominated by limonene, caryophyllene, and linalool, contributes both to its distinctive flavor and its well-rounded therapeutic effects.
