Star Tonic Strain

Tonics are more than just a fad. They are medicinal substances that stimulate and restore vigor. Star Tonic acts in the same manner in that, a puff of its CBD enriched smoke, delivers a soothing mental and physical buzz that generally enlivens users.

Though its breeders remain unknown, its knack for providing relief to patients can be traced to Cannatonic – one of the most prolific strains in the field of medical marijuana. Its chemical profile contains high levels of CBD that provide relief to patients with mental and physical conditions. Crossing it with Death Star, however, brought its power into full force. After all, the latter is a destroyer of planets.

Growing

Most medical strains are not available for sale as seeds. Their original breeders keep a proprietary hold on them to keep others from producing fake merchandise. This practice also assures users that the Star Tonic they are purchasing contain high levels of CBD.

With that said, it is easy to determine Star Tonic growth profile through its structure and classification. As a hybrid, it brings out the unique traits of both its Indica and Sativa genes. Though tall, its height rarely requires early topping except in the rare occasion of a growing space being too small. In such cases, cutting the vegetative period short will keep the plant from outgrowing its designated area.

Classified as a medical strain, it is likely that Star Tonic is cultivated indoors. This is not to say the plant does not perform well outdoors. In fact, it is quite sturdy in spite of its lankiness. However, it requires the stability of controlled environments to maintain its chemical profile. Keeping hygrometers all around the room will ensure that a balanced ratio between temperature and humidity. Applying either the Sea or Screen of Green methods will maximize the growing space and encourage more budding sites.

As it hits the flowering stage, Star Tonic yields vibrant bright green nugs with fiery hairs.

Flowering Time

Indoors

Star Tonic is a quick flowering plant that blossoms within 7 to 9 weeks. Once ready for harvest, it yields between 9 and 14 ounces worth of cured buds per square meter.

Outdoors

Like other plants, Star Tonic thrives in an outdoor environment with a fair amount of sunshine. Usually, flowers begin to bloom from late September to the second or third week of October with each plant producing at least 9 ounces of buds.
