Blue Thai
Blue Thai
Also known as: Blue Thai Kush
Overview
Blue Thai is a slightly sativa-leaning hybrid originally conceived in the Netherlands as a cross between Blueberry and pungent landrace variety Thai Skunk. Created by Dinafem, the Spanish-based breeding company responsible for other taste-focused strains in the Blueberry family like Blue Kush, this strain represents a successful stabilization of challenging Thai genetics with the reliable growing characteristics of Blueberry. Blue Thai is distinguished by large-sized buds that have a tapered shape similar to hops, with a dense, tightly-packed structure characteristic of predominantly indica varieties. The mossy green leaves are threaded through with pale yellow pistils, and many phenotypes show off flashes of purple ranging from lavender to deep violet. These vibrant colors come about when high concentrations of anthocyanin pigments in the plant's genetics are agitated by cool nighttime temperatures during the growing process. The strain has gained recognition for its balanced effects that provide relaxation without sedation, making it suitable for daytime use while still offering the therapeutic benefits associated with both its parent lineages.

Growing Information
Blue Thai can be cultivated indoors and outdoors with a flowering time of approximately 60 days (8 weeks). Indoor yield reaches 600g/m² while outdoor yield ranges from 700-800g/plant with plants reaching up to 3m in height. The strain is quite resistant to mold due to its quick flowering time and genetics, making it less exposed to moisture. Blue Thai thrives in controlled indoor environments and performs well outdoors in temperate to warm climates with a dry finish, preferring temperatures of 24-28°C in vegetation and 20-26°C in flower. The strain prefers moderate humidity and temperature conditions, with optimal growing temperatures between 70-80°F (20-27°C). Considered suitable for beginning growers due to its resilience and manageable growing characteristics.
