Don't let the name thoroughly intimidate you - Death Star is a renowned strain humbly bred in the American Midwest. The potent strain is known for its diesel-like smell, thick, gray coating of trichomes, and robust high (that many say packs the power of the Force). Since the strain landed a flattering featuring in High Times in 2010, Death Star has become a superstar. The indica hybrid came onto the scene in the early 2000s and was grown by, "Team Death Star," a mysterious group of growers from the Midwest. The strain made its way to the East Coast and since has gained national popularity!

Overview of Death Star

Death Star is a superstar in the cannabis world. Since an illuminating feature in High Times in February 2010, the strain has gone on to win critical acclaim and Cannabis Cup awards. Death Star's regularly high THC content contributes to these experiences. Death Star routinely possesses THC portions from 18% to 20%. The most top test result reflects a 26% THC content.

The strain's taste can contain a slight, citrus kick that comes late rather than sooner. The sweet flavor arrives in waves and flows in and out of the dominant diesel taste. Death Star's taste is a mash of its parent strain's flavor profiles. Users identify Death Star by its sweet, skunky smell and fat, sticky buds.

Sour Diesel further contributes to Death Star's signature hash-like, diesel flavor while Sensi Star contributes to the strain's compact bud structure.
