Uptown Girl
What is the Uptown Girl strain?
Uptown Girl is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 23.0% THC, known for its focused effects and citrus and diesel flavor profile.
Uptown Girl is a cannabis strain with multiple versions created by different breeders, each with distinct genetics and characteristics. The most prominent version is an indica-dominant hybrid developed by Omuerta Genetix, created by crossing Starlet Kush with Oak Tree. This F1 cross combines the high-end Kush qualities of Starlet Kush, which has deep Afghani heritage and exceptional trichome production, with the hardy resilience and powdery mildew resistance of Oak Tree. Another well-known version was created by Barney's Farm as a sativa-dominant hybrid (80% sativa/20% indica) using Thai Landrace x Burmese Landrace genetics.
A third notable version exists as a clone-only strain from Dallas, Texas, originating from bag seed and selected in the 2010s by a cultivator in the uptown area of the city. This version gained popularity in Dallas's uptown and Cedars neighborhoods during the latter half of the 2010s. The strain typically produces light minty green, super furry popcorn-shaped nugs with dense centers and thick amber hairs covered in chunky white crystal trichomes. Depending on the version, flowering times range from 63-70 days, with the strain adaptable to both indoor and outdoor cultivation.
