Seeds of Freedom
Morning Star was developed in 2004 with outdoor growing in
mind. The goal was to create a potent, high-resin variety that
finished early. Breeder D, the chief genetic engineer at Seeds
of Freedom took one of his favorite plants, an F2 Sensi Star
female, and crossed it with an early flowering Leda Uno male.
In testing, this male reacted quickly to the change in
photoperiod. The male Leda Uno helped increase the yield and
shorten the ripening time, producing plants that finish early
with impressive resin development and potency.
Morning Star seeds produce fast growing seedlings that
develop into sturdy, branchy plants. The plants are light green
color at optimum health, producing thin, long, sativa-like leaves
with a slight internode stretch. Because plants are speedy and
branchy growers, they establish themselves quickly outdoors
and can get quite large, especially if they were started indoors
and then moved outside. Plants that are pruned can get very
bushy from the strong side branching, which leads to large
yields. One must take care when growing outdoors during a
wet season, as some mold problems can occur. This variety has
been cultivated outdoors since its creation, and the ripening
time is fairly consistent and reliable. It can be harvested from
September 1–15th in Ontario, which is between 42–52° North
latitude.
Morning Star is low on the smell factor while in the garden,
exuding a fresh aroma that makes it suitable for indoor
gardens, where it is best as a multi-branch plant. If the bottom
branches are trimmed, these plants can also work in a sea of
green, producing large yields of fruity floral buds when
flowered for 7–8 weeks. The taste has a fruity lemon-citrus
subtlety, even exuding a slight citrus tone on the exhale.
Morning Star produces a cheerful, upbeat, and functional
buzz, which makes it a great smoke among friends. The high
comes on quickly and is fairly long lasting. This is a great
smoke to start off the day. With its delightful taste and
motivational high, it may just become your Morning Star.
