Blueberry Yum Yum
Also known as: Yum Yum
Overview
Blueberry Yum Yum is a legendary balanced 50/50 hybrid cannabis strain that gained widespread recognition after being immortalized in Ludacris's 2004 rap song of the same name. The strain captured the High Times Cannabis Cup award for Best Indica in 2000 and has maintained its popularity among both recreational and medicinal users. This strain is believed to be a cross between the legendary Blueberry indica and the South African landrace sativa Durban Poison, though the original breeder remains unknown.
The strain exhibits remarkable visual appeal with dense, frosty buds displaying a rich tapestry of deep greens and purples, often interlaced with hues of blue that provide a direct nod to its blueberry heritage, adorned with vibrant pistils ranging from bright orange to fiery red. Dark orange and brown pistils wind through the flowers, and despite not appearing as coated with trichomes as many other strains, the dried flowers are still very sticky and typically need a grinder to be broken up. The strain's terpene profile is dominated by β-myrcene, β-caryophyllene, α-pinene, α-humulene, β-pinene, α-bisabolol, ocimene, d-limonene, phytol, linalool, and nerolidol, contributing to its distinctive blueberry aroma with undertones of pine, mint, and earthy notes.

Growing Information
Blueberry Yum Yum produces below-average yields of small, fluffy, sticky buds with dark orange and brown stigma hairs in a 56-to-63-day flowering cycle. The strain is suited for both indoor and outdoor grows and is reportedly resistant to mold, mildew, and pests. Several seed banks carry feminized Blueberry Yum Yum seeds, and claim that the strain is fairly easy to grow, making it ideal for novice and expert cultivators alike. Plants grow tall, so breeders are more likely to put it outdoors, but it is also possible indoors with a flowering cycle of 55-60 days. The strain requires moderate growing difficulty and benefits from proper ventilation and humidity control.
