Growing Tips for Death Star OG
Death Star OG is considered an easy strain to cultivate if you have at least an intermediate experience level. Death Star OG marijuana plants will thrive indoors and outdoors, but have an easier time growing indoors because of the ability to completely control the climate. If you choose to grow indoors, you will have to replicate a steady environment similar to the climate of the Mediterranean. Death Star OG cannabis seeds grow into dark green plants with small leaves and round buds. The buds have flashes of dark orange due to the pistils growing from within. If you choose to grow outdoors, you will need to hope for consistent temperature and humidity to grow these plants to completion. Doing so will ensure that you grow healthy buds from the top of the plants to the buds closest to the soil. Having access to a greenhouse is the best way to give these plants the perfect outdoor climate without having to put up with unexpected outdoor variables. These plants grow to a tall height and can reach around 5-8 feet tall. Because the plants reach a maximum indoor and outdoor height of 8 feet, they require ample headroom so the topmost buds don’t burn or overgrow. The ideal temperature for these plants is around 68-80 degrees Fahrenheit and slightly cooler at night. Humidity levels should be kept around 40-50% during the vegetative growth stage and the flowering stage, but lowering the humidity every week will help this plant grow. Growing indoors will ensure that the moderate humidity levels and moderate temperatures are consistent and maintained every day that the plants are in the growing stages. Topping, Screen of Green (ScrOG), and Low-stress training (LST) methods are the most beneficial methods for this strain. If performed correctly, these techniques will help to increase the overall yields and improve bud production. These methods will reinforce the heavier bud sites, keeping the branches and stems from breaking under the weight while also controlling the canopy, allowing air and light to reach the lower buds. The Death Star OG strain requires an 18-20 hour light cycle to reach the vegetative stage of growth. You will need to alter the light cycle to a 12/12 cycle in order to induce the flowering stage of growth.
Yields, Flowering Time, and Harvest
- Flowering Time: Growing indoors, you can expect the Death Star OG strain to harvest after a flowering period of 60-70 days.
- Yields: While Indoor yields are around 450 grams per square meter, outdoor grows typically produce up to 550 grams per plant. These tall plants produce hefty yields of high-quality buds.
- Harvest: Outdoor growers can plan on harvesting their yields around the end of October, depending on when the seeds were planted.
Death Star OG: Woody Skunk
The Death Star OG cannabis strain terpene profile is directly responsible for how the plant smells and tastes, and the strong effects it has on its users. The most dominant terpene in this strain is caryophyllene, while delta-3 carene, humulene, and pinene are the secondary terpenes.
- Caryophyllene: Most Dominant – This spicy and peppery terpene can be found in cinnamon, cloves, black pepper, and some cannabis cultivars.
- Delta-3 Carene: Secondary Terpene – You can find this terpene in plants like rosemary, basil, and pine trees.
- Humulene: Earthy Flavor and Aroma – Found in beer with high hop content, this terpene is responsible for the earthy taste in cannabis plants.
- Pinene: Pine Needles – Commonly found in conifer trees and pine needles, this terpene gives cannabis plants their pine-like flavor and aroma.
