Blue Brilliant
Also known as: Blue Brilliant Auto, Blue Brilliant Autoflower
Blue Brilliant Strain Overview
Blue Brilliant is a hybrid cannabis strain developed by the Spanish seed bank Kannabia. The strain was created by crossing Blueberry, a classic indica-dominant strain known for its sweet berry flavors and relaxing effects, with an undisclosed sativa-dominant parent believed to be a Haze variety. This combination results in a balanced hybrid that offers both cerebral stimulation and physical relaxation. The strain was specifically bred to be available in autoflowering versions, making it accessible to growers of various experience levels.
Blue Brilliant plants typically display characteristics of both parent strains, with dense, resinous buds that exhibit a range of colors from deep green to purple hues, often accented by vibrant orange pistils. The buds are usually medium to large in size and covered in a generous layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance. The strain's name reflects both its lineage from Blueberry genetics and the 'brilliant' quality of its effects and appearance. While not as widely documented as some mainstream strains, Blue Brilliant has gained recognition among European growers and consumers for its balanced effects and manageable cultivation requirements.
The strain's aroma profile combines sweet berry notes inherited from its Blueberry parent with earthy, sometimes spicy undertones from its sativa lineage. When properly cured, the buds emit a complex fragrance that becomes more pronounced when broken apart or smoked. Blue Brilliant is considered a mid-level potency strain suitable for both daytime and evening use, depending on individual tolerance and the specific phenotype. Its effects typically manifest gradually, beginning with cerebral stimulation before transitioning to more relaxing physical sensations.

Blue Brilliant Strain Growing Information
Blue Brilliant is available in both photoperiod and autoflowering versions, with the autoflowering variant being more commonly cultivated. The autoflowering version typically completes its life cycle in 9-11 weeks from seed to harvest, making it suitable for growers seeking quicker turnaround times. Plants usually reach a moderate height of 80-120cm indoors and slightly taller outdoors. The strain is considered moderately easy to grow, suitable for growers with some experience. It responds well to both indoor and outdoor cultivation, though indoor growing allows for better environmental control. Expected yields are moderate to high, with indoor growers typically harvesting 400-500g/m² and outdoor growers achieving 50-100g per plant. The plants benefit from standard nutrient regimens and training techniques like low-stress training to maximize light exposure. Blue Brilliant is relatively resistant to common molds and pests but requires adequate ventilation, particularly during flowering when buds become dense and resinous.
