Blue Chemo
Blue Chemo
Also known as: Blue Chemo by Jordan of the Islands
Overview
Blue Chemo is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain developed by Jordan of the Islands, created by crossing the legendary UBC Chemo with Blueberry genetics. The strain features a genetic composition of Blueberry x Chemo with a flowering time of 45-55 days. Breeders report that up to 85% of the genetic makeup of Blue Chemo is indica, with the remaining percentage contributing to enhanced flavors and slightly elevated levels of limonene and myrcene. This strain represents a therapeutic-focused breeding achievement that maintains the powerful medicinal properties of its Chemo parent while introducing the distinctive berry flavors and colorful characteristics of Blueberry genetics. Bred by the innovative Jordan of the Islands, this strain has quickly become a topic of interest within the cannabis community. The strain exhibits the classic indica structure with dense, resinous buds that may display purple or blue hues, particularly when exposed to cooler growing temperatures. Blue Chemo is notably less sedating than its pure UBC Chemo parent, making it more versatile for daytime medicinal use while still providing substantial therapeutic benefits for pain management and appetite stimulation.

Growing Information
Blue Chemo can be cultivated indoors and outdoors with plants needing a flowering time of approximately 50 days. Pest management involves the use of organic pesticides and integrated pest management (IPM) strategies, with data suggesting that early intervention and neem oil reduced pest infestations by nearly 40%. The strain requires intermediate to advanced growing experience and performs well in controlled indoor environments where temperature and humidity can be carefully managed. The curing process, which can take up to four weeks with periodic burping of storage containers, has been shown to significantly enhance terpene concentration by up to 30%, ensuring the final product reaches premium quality. Plants exhibit typical indica structure with dense, bushy growth and may show purple or blue coloration in cooler conditions. The strain is known for producing quality over quantity yields with dense, resinous buds.
