What is the Blue Iguana strain?
Blue Iguana is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 32.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and blueberry and citrus flavor profile.
Blue Iguana is a well-regarded hybrid cannabis strain developed by Mosca Seeds through the crossing of their award-winning Double Dutch (mother plant) and Old Time Moonshine (father plant). Originally created as part of Mosca Seeds' breeding program, this strain has gained recognition for its unique appearance and balanced effects profile. The strain's name derives from its distinctive bud structure, which resembles a large, well-fed iguana when fully developed.
The plant exhibits typical hybrid characteristics with a medium-sized, branchy morphology that benefits from a slightly extended vegetative cycle to maximize cola development. Blue Iguana is classified as a slightly indica-dominant hybrid according to Mosca Seeds, though some phenotypes may lean more toward sativa expression. The strain features dense, heart-shaped buds with vibrant emerald-green coloration, notable blue undertones, and thin orange pistils. These buds are heavily coated with chunky, golden-white crystal trichomes that contribute to their sticky texture and visual appeal. The strain's aroma profile is particularly distinctive, combining skunky, tar-like, and earthy base notes with hints of blueberry sweetness, citrus, and spice.
