Sensory data is a curated, hand-mapped seed; detail completeness is high. Identity confidence is medium. The diagram is this strain's own sensory radar, not a photo. Batch quality still depends on grower, freshness and storage — none of which is captured here.
Background
The story
“Diesel and sour earth over a skunky base.”
The nose is loud and gassy: diesel and sour earth over a skunky base. The effect is strongly relaxing — a euphoric head sinking fast into a couch-locking body, firmly a nightcap.
It's pungent, dense and very potent. For heavy diesel genetics with a knockout body, Death Star earns the name.
