Dragon Berry
Also known as: Dragonberry
Overview
Dragon Berry, sometimes styled as Dragonberry, is a modern hybrid cannabis cultivar prized for fruit-forward aromatics and balanced effects. Because multiple breeders have released a Dragon Berry or Dragonberry, the lineage is best described as a family of closely related hybrid concepts rather than a single canonical cross. Commonly reported parentage chains pair a berry-heavy lineage such as Blueberry, Blackberry, or Strawberry Cough with a 'dragon' line like Dragon OG or Red Dragon. These pairings are consistent with the observed aromatic profile: ripe berries with tropical, floral, and subtle spice-fuel notes. The most commonly cited genetics involve crossing Cherry Bomb and Turbo Diesel, though some variations have emerged through the work of renowned breeders like MTG Seeds. Dragon Berry rose to visibility during the mid-to-late 2010s as craft breeders pursued dessert-style flavor profiles combining classic berry genetics with more modern hybrids, finding a receptive audience aided by consistently sweet aromatics and a balanced hybrid effect curve.
The buds display lumpy round dark olive green nugs with dark purple undertones, amber hairs, and a coating of sandy milky amber crystal trichomes. Across legal markets, total terpene content for Dragon Berry often measures between 1.5% and 3.0% by weight, which positions it among the more aromatic cultivars. This strong terpene expression drives its signature flavor as well as the perceived entourage effect that users describe. The strain features an insanely delicious berry fruity flavor that's accented by fresh pine on each smooth exhale, with aroma maintaining a notable punch of sweet cherries and diesel as the nugs are burned. What really makes the Dragon Berry cannabis strain stand out is its fantastic taste - a dazzling mix of vanilla, berries and mint forms a palate both deliciously different from many other strains.

Growing Information
The Dragon Berry strain is quite demanding in growing, with difficulty known for being average. This weed flowers in 53-61 days (approximately 8-9 weeks), having dark olive buds with dark purple undertones and a crystal trichome coating. Growing indoors, this cannabis flower reaches 30-60 inches, while outdoors 60-80 inches. Experienced growers have reported yields of around 500-600 grams per square meter under ideal conditions. This strain thrives in controlled indoor environments as well as outdoor settings with moderate climates. For indoor cultivation, growers are advised to maintain a consistent temperature range between 70°F and 80°F, and a humidity level around 40-50%. Regular pruning and low-stress training techniques have proven effective in managing the plant's bushy structure, with proper trimming potentially increasing yield by up to 20%. The robustness of Dragon Berry makes it suitable for both hydroponic and soil-based systems, though soil cultivation remains the most widely used method.
