Blue Animal
Also known as: Blue Animal Mints
Blue Animal Strain Overview
Blue Animal is a relatively modern hybrid cannabis strain that emerged in the early 2020s, representing a cross between two popular contemporary genetics: Animal Mints and Blue Sherbet. This strain has gained attention primarily through the West Coast cannabis community, particularly in California and Oregon, where boutique breeders have developed and refined its genetics. While not as widely documented as some legacy strains, Blue Animal has established a following among connoisseurs who appreciate its balanced effects and complex flavor profile.
The strain typically produces medium-sized, dense buds with a distinctive appearance characterized by deep forest green foliage interspersed with vibrant purple and blue hues, often accented by bright orange pistils. A thick coating of frosty trichomes gives the buds a shimmering, crystalline appearance that indicates its potency. The name "Blue Animal" references both its lineage and its visual characteristics, with "Blue" coming from the Blue Sherbet parent and "Animal" from the Animal Mints genetics.
Notable features include its balanced hybrid nature that provides both cerebral and physical effects, making it suitable for various times of day. The strain's terpene profile creates a complex aromatic experience that combines sweet, minty, and fruity notes. While Blue Animal has gained popularity in certain cannabis circles, comprehensive historical documentation remains limited compared to more established strains, and its availability varies significantly by region.

Blue Animal Strain Growing Information
Blue Animal is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors and are ready for harvest by mid to late October outdoors. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions. The strain performs well in both indoor and outdoor environments but prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with consistent temperatures. Plants tend to be medium in height, usually reaching 3-5 feet tall, with a bushy structure that may require some training and pruning for optimal light penetration. Special considerations include maintaining stable humidity levels during flowering to prevent mold, as the dense buds can be susceptible to moisture-related issues. The strain responds well to both soil and hydroponic growing methods.
