Estrella Roja Strain Overview
Estrella Roja is a predominantly sativa cannabis strain developed by the breeder 'Breeders' through a cross between Punto Rojo (Colombian Red Point) and Malva Silvestre. The strain is described as being 'with intermediate leaves (between thin and wide), with sativa predominance, descendant of one of the best varieties in the world, the well-known Punto Rojo (Colombian), crossed with the beautiful Malva Silvestre with purple tones' and has a genotype of '80% Sativa 20% Indica'. This variety is characterized by being a very fast sativa, cold weather causes it to externalize a wide range of purple colors, even so several of its phenotypes do not need cold climates to achieve those beautiful red and purple tones.
The strain derives its genetics from the renowned Colombian landrace Punto Rojo, which is known for the presence of 'red points' or 'red dots' in the flower pistils and is regarded as a boutique specialty kept by local farmers as a favorite for personal use. During flowering, its multiple shoots resemble a star, exhibiting its resplendent trichomes as if it had its own light, its effect is grandiose and psychedelic. The plant produces citrus aromas combined with laurel and flavors of mandarin, pine, sweet fruits.

Estrella Roja is a mostly sativa strain that can be cultivated indoors and outdoors with a flowering time of approximately 90 days. The vegetative stage requires a minimum of 30 days. The plant is suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation, with outdoor growing showing the strain's full potential. Cold weather causes the plant to display a wide range of purple colors, though several phenotypes can achieve beautiful red and purple tones without requiring cold climates. During flowering, the multiple shoots resemble a star formation. This is considered a moderately challenging strain requiring experience with sativa genetics due to the long flowering period typical of Colombian sativa lineages.
