Hong Kong Star Strain
Hong Kong Star is a popular and well-balanced hybrid that is sometimes referred to simply as “Hong Kong”. Hong Kong Star is mainly a social strain that is a cross between Sensi Star and Sour Diesel, with moderate THC levels that range between 14-18%. Though the exact ratio is unknown, Hong Kong Star is said to be Sativa dominant and is regarded as the perfect daytime medication. It provides a perfect uplift and can be used to get through mundane chores such as mowing the lawn or sweeping the yard. And the strain is flexible enough so that those who need to get to sleep can take more and it will send them to slumber. It is a very balanced high that keeps people present and focused, but happy and blissful. Users report feeling balanced with a clarity and focus that is rare to come across with other strains. Hong Kong Star will devour fatigue and grant consumers an abundance of energy and focus. The smell and taste of Hong Kong Star are not as pleasant as other strains, being a spicy mix of Diesel and Skunk. The taste is harsh and hash like, with no hints of sweetness. Hong Kong Star is covered with white crystals with medium density dry buds. The effects of this strain are felt within 5-10 minutes and are initially noticed in the head, sometimes behind the eyes. While Hong Kong Star is an excellent uplifting and happy strain, it will eventually result in a relaxing sleep. It is a long-lasting strain and the effects last around 3 hours, and for this reason, it is best used in the evening and the afternoon. The Indica effects are just as strong as the Sativa qualities when they kick in and this strain has a number of users.
