What is the A1 strain?
A1 is a hybrid cannabis strain, known for its euphoric effects and blueberry and citrus flavor profile.
A1 is Blue Steel (locomotion) crossed to Alaskan native Vintage Blueberry. Blue Steel is a select phenotype of TGA's Locomotion strain, aptly named blue steel for its near perfect representation of Blue City Diesel. Developed by AK Bean Brains, an old school Alaskan based breeder who first started growing after collecting NL1 and Devil's Club Indica in 1985, and began breeding after receiving bag seed from Hawaiian import bud that would eventually become Hawaiian Cat Piss. After discovering strain catalogues, he started purchasing genetics and cultivars to improve and preserve his own seed stock.
This strain has been cycled around the Alaskan medical scene and has been described as "Veteran approved medicine". Genetic analysis data indicates that A1's lineage has a fairly even split, approximately 50% indica and 50% sativa, although environmental factors can sway the expression of traits slightly in either direction. The plant boasts an incredible palate of rotten blueberry tangie fuel, with very heavy tangie flavors that has consistently tested at 4% terpenes, which are notably high in alpha and beta and myrcene. Pay attention to her fade as she puts out colorful hues of magenta and purple due to naturally high levels of Anthocyanin.
