Blenders
Also known as: Blender
Blenders Strain Overview
Blenders is a modern hybrid cannabis strain that emerged in the early 2010s from the Pacific Northwest cannabis breeding scene. The strain's exact origins are somewhat obscure, but it is believed to have been developed by boutique breeders seeking to create a versatile, well-balanced hybrid with broad appeal. The name 'Blenders' reflects its harmonious blending of effects and flavors from its parent genetics, creating a smooth, integrated experience rather than a jarring alternation between contrasting qualities.
Visually, Blenders typically produces medium-sized, dense buds with a distinctive appearance. The flowers often display a vibrant green color with occasional purple hues that emerge under cooler growing conditions. The buds are usually heavily coated in trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance, and feature bright orange pistils that create visual contrast. The strain's aroma profile is complex and well-integrated, with multiple scent notes blending together rather than dominating individually.
Blenders has gained popularity among both recreational and medicinal users for its balanced effects that combine cerebral stimulation with physical relaxation. The strain is particularly noted for its smooth onset and gradual transition between effects, making it suitable for various times of day and experience levels. While not as widely documented as some mainstream commercial strains, Blenders has developed a dedicated following in certain regional markets where it is appreciated for its consistency and versatility.

Blenders Strain Growing Information
Blenders is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically have a flowering time of 8-10 weeks when grown indoors. Outdoor harvests in the Northern Hemisphere usually occur in late September to early October. The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor growing environments, though indoor cultivation allows better control over the expression of its color variations.
Indoor yields are typically moderate to high, averaging 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant in suitable climates. The plants tend to maintain a medium height, usually reaching 120-160 cm indoors and potentially taller outdoors. Blenders responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training (LST) to maximize yields and manage height.
Preferred growing conditions include stable temperatures (20-26°C / 68-79°F) and moderate humidity levels (40-50% during flowering). The plants have moderate nutrient requirements and are somewhat resistant to common molds and pests, though proper airflow is essential due to the density of the buds. Some phenotypes may display purple coloration when exposed to cooler nighttime temperatures during the final weeks of flowering.
