Blue Dream
Blue Dream
Also known as: Azure Haze
Overview
Blue Dream is a legendary sativa-dominant hybrid cannabis strain that emerged from California in the early 2000s and has achieved mythical status in cannabis culture. This strain is created by crossing the indica Blueberry with the sativa Haze, resulting in a 60% sativa and 40% indica hybrid that originated in California and has since achieved legendary status among West Coast strains. The strain started life as an elusive clone-only variety believed to come from the California beach town of Santa Cruz, and it wasn't until the early 2000s that renowned breeder DJ Short refined the genetic line.
Blue Dream's visual appearance is distinctive, featuring conical and fluffy flower structure with vibrant greens punctuated by fiery orange pistils and widespread, sizable trichomes that give it a glistening, frosty appearance. The strain offers some blue shades among the bright greens and bits of purple throughout its flower, with shocks of orange hairs standing out strikingly against this color backdrop. The strain has become one of the most popular cultivars of all time, spawning countless variations and remaining popular even after several decades, earning recognition as one of the greatest weed strains of all time according to High Times and the best-selling marijuana strain for Leafly in 2023.

Growing Information
Blue Dream is considered an easy strain to cultivate, making it suitable for beginner-level growers due to its vigorous growth and large margin of error tolerance. The strain typically flowers within 8-10 weeks when grown indoors, with outdoor growers expecting harvest around mid-October in the Northern Hemisphere. Indoor yields can range between 15-20 ounces per square meter with outdoor plants sometimes exceeding 20 ounces, typically producing 4-6 ounces per plant. Due to its sativa-dominant genetics, Blue Dream grows tall (4-6 feet) and requires proper pruning, training, and structural support, with significant stretch during early flowering making height management the primary concern for indoor growers. The strain thrives in most climates with ideal temperatures between 65-85°F and can be grown successfully both indoors and outdoors, though it's best known for successful outdoor growth in California-like climates.
