Shuteye X Star Dawg by Greenpoint Seeds
Shuteye × Star Dawg
Shuteye X Star Dawg is an indica-dominant hybrid developed by Greenpoint Seeds, created by crossing the Shuteye and Star Dawg strains. This cultivar is recognized for its balanced cannabinoid profile and its ability to deliver both relaxing and uplifting sensations. It aims to combine the sedative qualities of traditional indicas with subtle energizing notes from its lineage.
Appearance
This strain features dense, compact buds characteristic of its indica heritage. The buds display deep forest green coloration, often accented with hints of purple. They are typically coated in a generous layer of trichomes, giving them a sparkling appearance, and are frequently adorned with orange and deep red pistils.
The compact bud structure is noted for its suitability for efficient curing and storage, potentially aiding in cannabinoid preservation. Growers have observed a symmetrical branching pattern, contributing to the plant's overall balanced visual presentation.
Aroma & Flavor Profile
The aroma of Shuteye X Star Dawg is a complex blend, characterized by earthy undertones combined with bright citrus notes and a spicy zest. Upon closer inspection, a sweet, honey-like aroma may also be detected.
The flavor profile mirrors the aroma, offering a palate that balances sweet honey notes with a piney earthiness. A refreshing herbal aftertaste is often reported, making for a nuanced sensory experience.

The strain is often associated with a gentle, uplifting mental sensation that complements its physical relaxation, providing a balanced experience for many consumers.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
Laboratory analysis indicates that Shuteye X Star Dawg typically contains THC levels ranging from 18% to 22%, with modest CBD content usually around 1% to 1.5%. Key terpenes identified include Myrcene, Limonene, and Caryophyllene.
The cannabinoid and terpene profile is thought to contribute to the strain's effects, potentially enhancing its therapeutic efficacy through synergistic interactions, often referred to as the entourage effect.
Origins & Lineage
Shuteye X Star Dawg was developed by Greenpoint Seeds through a cross of the Shuteye strain and the popular Star Dawg. Both parent strains are known for their indica dominance and significant genetic contributions.
The breeding process involved meticulous selection and controlled pollination techniques, aiming to preserve and enhance the indica-dominant traits while incorporating desirable characteristics from both parents. This resulted in a strain with approximately 70% indica genetics.
Growing Information
While specific cultivation details are not extensively detailed, the strain's indica heritage suggests a potentially robust plant structure. Early trials indicated a significant improvement in yield consistency, with some crosses showing up to a 35% higher yield compared to standard indica controls.
The dense bud structure observed may suggest a need for proper airflow to prevent potential issues during flowering. The strain's overall robustness and yield potential were factors in its development by Greenpoint Seeds.
