Overview

Blueberry is a legendary indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain created by renowned breeder DJ Short in the 1970s. This iconic strain emerged from DJ Short's experimental breeding program involving exotic landrace genetics from Afghanistan, Thailand, and Purple Thai varieties. The strain was first developed in the 1970s by breeder DJ Short and won the High Times Cannabis Cup 2000 for Best Indica, cementing its place among cannabis royalty.

Blueberry exhibits the classic characteristics of its indica heritage with small, densely-packed flowers with compact forest green leaves often flecked with traces of purple and red. When grown in cooler temperatures, these sticky buds may even feature hues of deep purple and sometimes even red. The strain's most distinctive feature is its unmistakable aroma and flavor profile that has a sweet, fruity scent reminiscent of fresh blueberries, combining the taste of ripe blueberries with subtle hints of vanilla and woodsy undertones. This exceptional flavor profile has made it a cornerstone strain for countless modern hybrids and earned it recognition as one of the most influential cannabis genetics of all time.

Growing Information

Blueberry has a flowering time of approximately 8-10 weeks and is considered suitable for beginner growers as they are straightforward to grow. The plants are usually compact and bushy, a trait inherited from their indica genetics, making them well-suited for indoor growing setups. Thanks to her Afghan genetics, she stays relatively compact indoors, but can grow to a significant size given the space and a longer veg time. Indoors it can provide 18 ounces of bud per square meter, while outdoors you can expect a yield of up to 25 ounces per plant. Blueberry isn't the easiest variety for newer growers and can be a fussy feeder, requiring stable growing environment with optimized climate, nutrients, soil and lighting. Keeping the plants in a slightly cooler environment during the late flowering stage can enhance the strain's signature coloration.
