Blueberry Diesel
Blueberry Diesel
Also known as: Blueberry Sour Diesel, Blue Diesel
Overview
Blueberry Diesel is a cross between two popular strains, Blueberry and Sour Diesel, creating a 50% indica and 50% sativa hybrid, offering the best of both worlds with its balanced effects. Though some sources describe it as indica-heavy hybrid (40:60 sativa/indica ratio), most agree it maintains a relatively balanced profile. This strain is known for its moderate THC content, averaging around 15-20%, with some batches testing as high as between 14% and 23%.
When ready for harvest, this strain will have nugs that are colorful, being mostly deep green with hues of purples and blues with a thick layer of trichomes to make it look frosty. The buds display an interesting color palette with mossy green leaves interspersed with rust-colored pistils. There are occasional flashes of dark blue and indigo, adding a unique visual appeal. It is probably best known for its strong blueberry smell with hints of fuel from its Diesel lineage, with a blend of sweet blueberry and pungent diesel aromas, with hints of berry, earthy, and sour notes on the palate. The strain combines the relaxing properties of its Blueberry parent with the energizing qualities of Sour Diesel, making it suitable for both daytime and evening use.

Growing Information
Growing the Blueberry Diesel strain is merely a moderate challenge, which can be managed by both seasoned veterans and novice growers. The flowering period for Blueberry Diesel plants is approximately 8 to 9 weeks, with some sources reporting a short flowering period of 55-65 days indoors. Growing Blueberry Diesel indoor, you might need to account for a larger space as it grows to 4 feet, while in an outdoor setting with open spaces, Blueberry Diesel grows up to 6 feet. Indoor yields are around 450 grams per square meter, while outdoor grows typically produce up to 550 grams per plant. Blueberry Diesel prefers a warm and somewhat humid environment for optimal growth. Growers should aim for temperatures between 68 and 80°F (20 and 27°C). It tends to grow very tall, and if grown indoors, you'll have to employ a specific technique called Low-Stress Training to help the thinner stems support the chunky buds they produce. Outdoor growers can plan on harvesting their yields around the middle of October.
