Strain Integrity

According to Allbud.com, ” Stargazer is an indica dominant hybrid (80% indica/20% sativa) strain created through a three-way cross of the infamous Warlock X AK-47 X Sensi Star strains. This celebrity child boasts an insanely high THC level that typically falls between 16-21% and a myriad of powerful effects that are said to be perfect for a lazy night gazing at the heavens. The high starts with an uplifting and clarifying happiness felt cerebrally that leaves you completely alert with a slight sense of hazy focus. This is accompanied by a peaceful and relaxing body high that starts in your spine and spreads to your fingertips with warm tingly waves. You’ll be completely at ease and very aware of what is happening around you with Stargazer, making it perfect for lazy evenings. Because of this combination of effects, Stargazer is said to be perfect for treating chronic pain, mild to moderate cases of depression, ADD or ADHD, and chronic stress. This bud has an insanely delicious aroma and taste of sweet minty cream with a pungent sour lemon aftertaste that still maintains a slightly nutty buttery taste. Stargazer buds have medium-sized lumpy and dense forest green pepper-shaped nugs with light amber hairs and a frosty white coating of sandy fine crystal trichomes. ”

From the OCS website, ” Stargazer is an indica-dominant flower grown by Broken Coast Cannabis. The cultivar exhibits flowers with large swollen calxes and very few leaves. A stunning deep purple bud covered in large trichomes. Offering significant caryophyllene, myrcene and limonene terpene content, it releases wafts of fruity gas and dank earthy aromas. Always grown indoors in small-batch, strain-specific rooms, and slowly hang cured and hand-trimmed. ”

Peace on Earth

Stargazer (Sonora) by Broken Coast (Tilray) packaged on August 27, 2020, cost $26.95 for 3.5 grams with 18.5% THC and an earthy sourness scent.  Our test amount was 0.26 grams.

The “high” starts during inhalation and continues smoothly after with a euphoric awakening.  Instant calmness and serenity invade our space with a touch of joy.  Stargazer launch with some cerebral stimulation can be best characterised as getting tranquilised with style.  Fifteen minutes later, Stargazer is a Smooth operator as we get even more tranquilised.   It is time to head out to pasture and lie down and gaze at the stars.  We are now one with the Universe.

Stargazer is a good blend of Indica and Sativa effects.  With more emphasis on blissfulness and tranquility, the sativa cerebralness compliments instead of overpowering the Indica bliss.  For 18.5% THC, this Stargazer is hitting well above the THC rating.

Activity pairing is best in the evening time slots.  Stargazer can help to rightsized a tilted day with some quality “Me” time.

Conclusion

Stargazer (Sonora) by Broken Coast (Tilray)

Stargazer is just another winning cultivar from one of the best LP in Canada, Broken Coast.  We reviewed Stargazer because it is now available in 1 ounce format at a cost of $249.95, which is an excellent deal.  This Stargazer review sample was purchased on “Sale” at a local brick and mortar dispensary.

THC:  18.5%

Quality:  8.4

Intensity:  8.2

Duration:  8.2

Total:  8.27

Cost:  $26.95 for 3.5 grams, 28 grams for $249.95

Would we buy this again?  Yes.  The THC rating and packaged date and are a couple of things about Broken Coast products that does not seem to matter.  Packaged in Nitrogen, Broken Coast products retain their freshness by as long as a year.  And, lower THC ratings does not seem to affect the quality of the “high.”  We would  always recommend trying Broken Coast.

On an investment note, Broken Coast and Whistler Medical are the two oldest medical cannabis producer in Canada.  As a heads up for Aurora investors, we can say the transition of WMMC to AuroraMedical looks to be cumbersome and painful.  This cannot be good news for Aurora investors.  For Tilray’s investors, it appears recreation cannabis is Broken Coast’s bright future.
