Four Star GeneralEffects & Experience
The dominant effects of Four Star General are relaxed, happy, euphoric, and the experience is more nuanced than a simple high/low/sedating label would suggest. Onset is gradual rather than abrupt, the peak holds for roughly an hour, and the comedown is smooth — which is why this strain shows up in so many "daily driver" lists from experienced consumers.
Growing Four Star General
Growing Four Star General fits indoor tent growers running standard 4x4 setups; the hybrid frame responds well to topping and LST. Four Star General is photoperiod, which means you control when it flowers by switching from 18/6 (vegetative) to 12/12 (flowering). Most indoor growers veg for 4-6 weeks before the flip. Indoor yields land around 450-550 g/m² under quality LED, and outdoor plants given full sun and 5-7 gallon containers reliably produce 500-700 g/plant. Expected plant height is 120-180 cm, with intermediate cultivation difficulty. Practical tips that move the needle: defoliate strategically on day 21 of flower; remove fan leaves blocking interior bud sites without stripping the plant; and feed cal-mag from week 2 onward at 2-3 mL per gallon — most reverse-osmosis and soft tap water setups need it. The most common challenge growers report is training timing — top at the 4th node, not earlier and not later, for the best canopy distribution.
