Blue Kush
Blue Kush
Also known as: Blue Kush Auto
Overview
Blue Kush is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain created by Spanish seed bank Dinafem through crossing two legendary parent strains: Blueberry and OG Kush. This strain represents a sophisticated genetic fusion that combines the fruity sweetness of Blueberry with the potent, earthy characteristics of OG Kush. Blue Kush is notable for being a sativa-dominant hybrid despite its Kush lineage, offering an energetic kick rather than the typical sedative effects associated with most Kush varieties. The strain exhibits a complex terpene profile dominated by myrcene, with significant contributions from limonene, pinene, and caryophyllene, creating a rich aromatic bouquet that captivates the senses.
The plant produces dense, resinous buds with a popcorn-like structure once cured, featuring mossy green leaves threaded with yellowish pistils. Some phenotypes display hints of light to deep purple coloration inherited from the Blueberry parent, particularly when exposed to cooler temperatures during cultivation. Blue Kush has gained recognition for its balanced effects that provide both cerebral stimulation and gentle physical relaxation, making it suitable for daytime use while avoiding the heavy sedation typical of indica-dominant strains.
