Blood Orange Amethyst
Also known as: BOA
Overview
Blood Orange Amethyst is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain (70% indica/30% sativa) developed by Humboldt Seed Company through the stabilized crossing of Blueberry Muffin and Purple Panty Dropper strains. This strain represents a third-generation (F3) stabilized cross that showcases the breeder's expertise in developing aromatic and visually striking cannabis varieties. The strain was phenotype hunted from generational Amethyst backcrosses to create a truly unique citrus-heavy terpene profile that has gained recognition in the cannabis community.
Blood Orange Amethyst is renowned for its stunning visual appearance, featuring bright neon green buds with deep purple hues that give it an almost jewel-like quality reminiscent of its gemstone namesake. The dense, heavily-branched buds are generously coated with golden trichomes and vibrant orange pistils, creating an impressive bag appeal. The strain's distinctive aromatic profile combines intense citrus notes of blood orange and grapefruit with underlying earthy and skunky undertones, creating a complex sensory experience that captivates both novice and experienced cannabis consumers.
