The occasional smell of the skunk that you may encounter as you drive through farmland with trees lining the edges is not likely to bring you back fond memories. Dark Star has transformed that once-disgusting aroma into one you’ll enjoy.
When you break open the dense flower, it releases a strong scent of earth. A sweet, almost acidic scent tickles your nose and gives you the first clue to the plant’s psychoactive properties.
Dark Star High
Other cannabis flowers seem to be more relaxed and happy. Dark Star has a similar effect, with a slower and more soothing high. This pungent strain will send a relaxing, comfortable vibration through your chest and legs after a few taste.
It is common to notice that the tension around your eyes and face dissipates when you listen to this strain. Dark Star may cause you to close your eyes, which will allow you to release stress that you didn’t even know you had. The evening flower is a subtle, but inviting plant that makes a wonderful companion after dinner.
The plant, like all psychoactive drugs, is often more an enhancer rather than a catalyst of radical change.
You can relax and unwind with a few sips of earthy Dark Star if you are having a difficult day. The plant is not a quick fix to good health or happiness. When consumed correctly and under the right conditions, this herb could help achieve your goals.
Dark Star Strain Background
Breeders at T.H. Seeds are the geniuses behind Dark Star. The strain has been designed with mildew and mold resistance, making it a great flower for those who live in moist climates.
The plant has indica genes. Dark Star is a perfect example of how indica strains aren’t always as sedating and couch-locking as they seem.
This flower’s dense buds and purple peak colour are a testament to its heritage. Purple Kush has roots in Northern California, and it is a purist indica. Mazar I Sharif comes from Northern Afghanistan but is less common.
Combining the two produces a tall plant that has high yields, and trichomes in large quantities. Lab tests have revealed that the herb boasts upwards of 16 percent THC. Dark Star may not seem like the most impressive flower in the store, but it’s still a potent plant.
Dark Star Strain Benefits
Most people are now aware of the fact that cannabis is much more than just THC. Cannabis can produce upwards of 400 different chemical compounds known as terpenes.
Dark Star produces two distinct terpenes: myrcene and beta-caryophyllene.
Myrcene, a musk-scented molecule that is more commonly found in lemongrass, may have muscle relaxant and hypnotic properties, that give Dark Star a sedative effect.
Beta-caryophyllene, which gives a pepper-like aroma to cannabis flowers, is not as sedative as myrcene, but it is thought to have relaxing and anxiolytic effects.
This flower has a mellow personality, especially when combined with myrcene’s potential to relax muscles. The herb may be best for people who are looking to relieve stress both mentally and physically. It is best to save it for evening.
