What is the Blue Shiva strain?
Blue Shiva is a indica cannabis strain, known for its relaxed effects and blueberry and earthy flavor profile.
Blue Shiva is an indica-dominant cannabis strain developed by Jordan of the Islands, created by crossing Shiva Skunk with Blueberry. This strain represents a harmonious marriage of two beloved genetics, combining the potent effects of the legendary Shiva Skunk (a cross of Skunk #1 and Northern Lights #5) with the sweet, fruity characteristics of Blueberry. Blue Shiva exhibits typical indica-dominant traits with its relaxing yet uplifting effects, making it suitable for users who want to unwind without experiencing heavy sedation or couch-lock. The strain is characterized by its tall, light green plants that produce exceptionally long, dense buds with a high bud-to-leaf ratio. Jordan of the Islands, a respected Canadian breeder, specifically chose this combination because both parent strains were longtime favorites, resulting in what they describe as an "amazing cross" with a very pungent and sweet profile. The strain has gained recognition for its blueberry-Afghan flavor profile and strong aromatic qualities, representing a classic example of skillful cannabis breeding that balances potency with palatability.
