Black & Blue
Black & Blue
Also known as: Black n Blue, Black N Blue, Black and Blue
Overview
Black & Blue is an evenly balanced hybrid strain (50% indica/50% sativa) created through crossing Aussie Blues and Black Russian genetics. This strain was developed by breeders including Alt Sol and New420Guy Seeds, with different phenotypic expressions. The strain gets its name from both its heavy parentage and its gorgeous, colorful appearance, featuring dark blue and purple hues reminiscent of its namesake. The buds are absolutely beautiful, displaying dense, grape-shaped forest green nuggets adorned with dark blue leaves, super thin orange hairs, and a frosty, thick coating of bright blue-tinted white crystal trichomes. As you break apart each sparkling nugget, complex aromas of sweet fruity berries, spicy hash, and woody pine are released. The strain represents a perfect balance of its parent genetics, combining the uplifting cerebral effects of Aussie Blues (a Blue Haze cross) with the relaxing indica properties of Black Russian (Black Domina x White Russian). This careful breeding has resulted in a unique hybrid that offers both mental stimulation and physical relaxation.
