White Star
Also known as: The White Star, WhiteStar, Southern Lights
White Star Strain Overview
White Star is a sativa-dominant hybrid strain (60% sativa/40% indica) created through crossing the potent NYC Diesel and Sensi Star strains. Formerly known as Southern Lights, this strain has gained recognition for its award-winning genetics and impressive characteristics. White Star gets its name for the crystal-coated branches that shoot out like star rays, creating a distinctive appearance that sets it apart from other varieties.
The strain showcases small and fluffy forest green nugs with thin, furry orange hairs and chunky, golden-white crystal trichomes. This strain features a unique orange and yellow looking resin tint that develops as it matures. White Star is notably hardy and resistant to mold and stress, making it appealing to both novice and experienced cultivators.
Developed by multiple breeders including Digital Genetics and Top Dawg Seeds, White Star has established itself as a potent strain with high medical value. The strain combines the cerebral stimulation of its sativa dominance with the relaxing qualities inherited from its indica genetics, creating a well-balanced hybrid that appeals to both recreational and medical cannabis users.

White Star Strain Growing Information
Recommended for indoor gardens, this variety's flowers may begin to reach maturity at around 9 weeks but the average time is closer to 10 weeks. Some gardeners prolong the bloom to between 10 and 12 weeks for continued trichome production. The White Star can be cultivated indoors and outdoors with a flowering time of approximately 61 days (58-63 days). Indoors, the strain will do well in soil or hydro mediums and grow up to two metres. Flowering time is 10 to 12 weeks, and yields are around 400 grams per square metre. Outdoors, the plants will thrive with plenty of warm sunshine and grow to three metres or more. They need support in the later stages of growing as they stretch out. The strain has a 2.0x stretch ratio and growers in northern countries with cooler summers will struggle to grow this strain successfully outdoors. It flourishes in soil or hydroponic systems and it's recommended to prune the plants to encourage budding and flowering. Set up a support system in the period that it carries heavy buds.
