Azula
Azula
Also known as: El Azul, Azul
Overview
Azula is a modern cannabis hybrid with multiple variants circulating in the market. The most documented version is from Triptoe Seed Co, created by crossing Bluebeam #2 and Critical Hog. This strain emerged during the late 2010s boutique breeding wave, capitalizing on the popularity of berry-gas chemotypes and dessert terpene profiles. The name "Azul" (Spanish for "blue") references the strain's potential for blue-purple coloration, particularly when exposed to cooler temperatures during flowering. Azul, Spanish for blue, is a label that growers often reserve for phenotypes showing pronounced anthocyanin expression, especially under cool night temperatures late in flower. In markets where Spanish-language branding resonates, such as parts of the Southwest United States, Azul has become a recognizable moniker for a blue-leaning hybrid with premium bag appeal. There are also documented variants including an Azul strain from Sunset Sherbet x Biscotti genetics, which creates confusion in the marketplace as different breeders may circulate different cuts under similar names. Because Azul is a name rather than a universally standardized clone, batches can vary in both chemistry and morphology depending on the breeder and cut. Given naming variability, treat "Azul" as a sensory and chemotype promise rather than a guaranteed genetic clone.

Growing Information
Azula is an indica/sativa hybrid from Triptoe Seed Co that can be cultivated indoors with a flowering time of approximately 44 days. The strain is only available as feminized seeds. This strain is extremely potent and features lots of lemon gas terps in most of the lineage. The short flowering period makes it appealing for indoor cultivation, though specific details about yield, height, and growing difficulty are not widely documented. Growers should expect moderate difficulty due to the strain's potency requirements and specific environmental needs for optimal terpene expression. Temperature control is important for achieving the blue coloration that gives the strain its name.
