**Stardawg** (often stylized as Stardawg or Star Dawg) is a legendary hybrid strain that has become a cornerstone of modern cannabis genetics. It is a phenotype of the original Chemdog 4 (also known as Tres Dawg) bred by Top Dawg Seeds. This strain is celebrated for its **potent cerebral effects** and distinctive **fuel-like aroma** that has influenced countless popular crosses. ### Key Characteristics: * **Genetics:** A phenotype selection from Chemdog 4 (Tres Dawg), which itself stems from the original Chemdog lineage. * **The High:** The experience is predominantly **cerebral and sativa-leaning**, beginning with a sharp, euphoric, and energetic rush that stimulates creativity and focus. This initial mental stimulation gradually mellows into a relaxed, full-body calm without heavy sedation, making it functional for daytime use. * **Aroma & Flavor:** The profile is unmistakably **dank and fuel-forward**. It hits the nose with a powerful, acrid scent of **gas, diesel, and skunk**, underscored by sharp notes of **pine and lemon**. The smoke is smooth yet carries a complex, earthy-pine flavor with a spicy, chemical finish. * **Cultivation:** Plants tend to stretch significantly during the flowering stretch, requiring some height management. They develop dense, resin-coated buds that exude terpenes. While resilient, they benefit from experienced attention to nutrient levels and environment to maximize their high-yield potential. Stardawg's robust effects and unique terpene profile have made it a premier breeding tool, giving rise to famous strains like **Stardawg Guava** and **Stardawg Corey**.
