Blue Pine
Also known as: Blue Pineapple, Blue Pine OG
Blue Pine Strain Overview
Blue Pine is a hybrid cannabis strain that emerged in the early 2010s from the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. The strain represents a carefully balanced cross between Blueberry and Pineapple Express, combining the relaxing qualities of indica genetics with the uplifting cerebral effects of sativa heritage. Breeders sought to create a strain that maintained the distinctive flavor profiles of both parent strains while enhancing potency and resin production.
The strain's appearance is characterized by dense, conical buds with a forest green coloration accented by vibrant orange pistils. A generous coating of trichomes gives the buds a frosty, crystalline appearance that hints at its potency. The foliage often displays subtle purple and blue hues, particularly in cooler growing conditions, which contribute to its name. Blue Pine has gained popularity among both recreational and medicinal users for its well-rounded effects and complex aromatic profile.
Notable features include its relatively fast flowering time compared to many hybrid strains and its adaptability to various growing environments. The strain has become particularly popular in legal markets across North America and has developed a reputation for consistent quality when grown under proper conditions. While not as widely documented as some classic strains, Blue Pine has established a dedicated following among cannabis enthusiasts who appreciate its balanced effects and distinctive flavor combination.

Blue Pine Strain Growing Information
Blue Pine is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The strain has a flowering time of approximately 8-9 weeks indoors and is ready for outdoor harvest in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields typically range from 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions.
The plant prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with consistent temperatures and moderate humidity. It can be grown successfully both indoors and outdoors, though indoor cultivation allows better control over environmental factors. Blue Pine plants typically reach a medium height of 100-150 cm indoors and 150-200 cm outdoors. Special considerations include maintaining proper air circulation to prevent mold in dense buds and providing adequate support during flowering as buds can become heavy. The strain responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yield and light penetration.
