Blueberry Strain Review – Bonza Blog
Since its release in the 1970s, Blueberry has gained a massive following. Not only do people worldwide enjoy its Indica traits and outstanding flavors, but breeders have also used it to breed many other strains.
Credit goes to the “Willy Wonka of Cannabis” DJ Short for creating Blueberry using three strains.
Arguably the one Indica plant that matters is the Afghani strain from the borders of Afghanistan and Pakistan. The breeder then crossed it with two others, a pure Thai strain and the Purple Thai hybrid. The resulting offspring, named Blueberry, took most of its traits from the Afghani. Curiously, it seems to have developed the berry scent and taste on its own.

Odor and Flavors
From its name alone, one can conclude that the plant emits the odor reminiscent of grapes and berries. It becomes even more apparent once users break down the buds. It also comes with the same earthy freshness as that in a garden on an early morning.
Once close enough and all the way throughout its use, the sweet aroma of blueberry is evident in the air and the mouth. A slight note of pine is barely detectable, but it does add to the unique blend making it arguably the best tasting strain ever created.

Growing Blueberry
In general, growing Blueberry is not delicate. It does help if growers already have previous experience and know-how. Still, there is no reason why beginners cannot grow this plant successfully. All it takes it a little more effort in learning the techniques.
Space is also a consideration as it tends to grow with more lateral branching like typical Indica-type plants do. At any rate, it thrives in a warm climate if planted outdoors. Of course, that goes without saying that it grows very well inside the house too.
Blueberry is a little picky with regards to temperature and humidity. Fortunately, these can be managed without so much effort so as long as growers have the right tools. The plant is also highly adaptable to either the Screen of Green or Sea of Green training methods. Keep room temperature at 22C to 27C. Once it reaches nine weeks, it should be ready to transition to the flowering stage. Under 600 watts, it can produce up to 500 grams per square meter.
