The stardawg strain has been on the lips of growers across the world for the last couple of years due to the incredible reputation it has garnered from producers and consumers alike. The StarDawg name comes from the star-like crystals which dazzle from its bountiful buds in the growroom. Stardawg was created by crossing Chemdawg #4 and Tres dawg and is a slightly Sativa dominant hybrid. We got our hands on a photoperiod clone of the strain and combined it with our auto line to create our own version of Auto stardawg.
Like all of our strains, Auto stardawg is very easy to grow and as long as basic levels of care and attention are given, then the grower will see incredible growth from week 3 when she first starts to produce pistils and begin her stretch. Auto Stardawg tends to produce multiple branches with fat buds rather than a single dominant cola meaning that this strain works brilliantly in SOG setups.
Harvest time comes at around 9-10 weeks from seed and she will generally top out at 80-100cm with tons of branches and heavy trichome covered buds. If grown in soil with only limited feeding, yields of 60-90g per plant can easily be achieved whereas with a hydro setup and intense feeding schedule 250g+ per plant is definitely on the cards.
Once harvested and cured, the crystal covered buds of Stardawg shine like the milky way and give off a delicious citrus aroma with peppery, pine-like undertones.
The effect of Stardawg is almost instant and very hard hitting due to THC levels in excess of 23%. Auto stardawg has an all-encompassing high with a strong cerebral element and total body relaxation. Medical users have noted that this strain helps to increase appetite and can relive feelings of nausea.
