Blue Grape Dream
Also known as: Blue Grape Dream Hybrid
Blue Grape Dream Strain Overview
Blue Grape Dream is a hybrid cannabis strain that represents a cross between Blue Dream and Grape Ape, combining the best characteristics of both parent strains. This strain emerged in the early 2010s as breeders sought to create a balanced hybrid with the cerebral effects of Blue Dream and the relaxing body effects of Grape Ape. The exact origins remain somewhat obscure, with multiple breeders claiming development, but it gained popularity in the West Coast cannabis scene before spreading to other markets.
The strain produces medium to large-sized buds with a distinctive appearance featuring dense, grape-shaped nugs that display a range of colors from deep purple to forest green, often accented by vibrant orange pistils and a generous coating of trichomes. The coloration is particularly pronounced in cooler growing conditions, where the purple hues become more dominant. The buds typically have a slightly fluffy structure with good density, making them relatively easy to break apart for consumption.
Blue Grape Dream is noted for its complex aroma and flavor profile that combines elements from both parent strains. The name accurately reflects its sensory characteristics, with users reporting a sweet grape flavor complemented by berry undertones and a subtle earthiness. The strain's balanced effects and appealing sensory profile have contributed to its popularity among both recreational and medicinal users seeking a versatile cannabis experience.

Blue Grape Dream Strain Growing Information
Blue Grape Dream is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The flowering time typically ranges from 8 to 10 weeks when grown indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in late September to early October in the Northern Hemisphere. Indoor yields average 14-18 ounces per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 16-20 ounces per plant under optimal conditions.
The plant prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with consistent temperatures and moderate humidity. It can be grown both indoors and outdoors, though indoor cultivation allows better control over environmental factors. The plants tend to reach medium height, typically growing 3-5 feet tall indoors and 4-6 feet outdoors. Special considerations include maintaining proper air circulation to prevent mold (particularly during flowering) and implementing temperature drops during the final weeks to enhance purple coloration. The strain responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yields.
