What is the Blue Dream strain?

Blue Dream is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its euphoric effects and berry and blueberry flavor profile.

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.
