The Deputy is a modern hybrid strain with a lineage that remains largely undocumented by breeders. While the plant is recognized as originating from Star Dawg, its full genetic history is incomplete, and no official breeder description provides a definitive account of its development or ancestry. This lack of clear provenance is characteristic of the strain, as participants in its cultivation have not publicly confirmed a broader pedigree, leaving its precise origins as a subject of ambiguity rather than established record.

The chemical profile of The Deputy is defined by a complex array of terpenes, led by limonene, myrcene, and caryophyllene, followed by nerolidol, humulene, and linalool. Minor terpene contributions include beta-pinene, pinene, camphene, terpinolene, and bisabolol. Based on these concentrations, the strain tends to present a nuanced aromatic experience, though because individual batch testing varies, the sensory impact is an estimated balance of these twelve compounds. Regarding its potency, the strain is THC-dominant with an estimated average of 19.5% THC and approximately 0% CBD.

Users of The Deputy report feeling relaxed, happy, and uplifted following consumption. These effects align with its common use cases, which include the management of stress, pain, and sleep difficulties. Designed for both indoor and outdoor cultivation, the strain exhibits moderate growth difficulty and requires a 63-day flowering period to reach its full potential, typically delivering a high yield. At this time, there are no notable offspring recorded in established breeding annals.
