Panama Blue
Also known as: Panama Blue Dream, Blue Panama
Panama Blue Strain Overview
Panama Blue is a sativa-dominant hybrid cannabis strain that combines genetics from Panama Red and Blue Dream. This strain emerged in the early 2010s as breeders sought to create a balanced sativa with enhanced flavor profiles and reliable effects. Panama Blue inherits the cerebral stimulation and energetic qualities from its Panama Red parent while incorporating the smooth, manageable effects and berry flavors from Blue Dream. The strain gained popularity among sativa enthusiasts who appreciate its clear-headed effects and complex terpene profile.
The plant typically displays medium to tall stature with elongated, spear-shaped buds that are moderately dense. The flowers exhibit a distinctive coloration with deep green foliage accented by purple and blue hues, particularly in cooler growing conditions. Orange pistils weave through the buds, creating visual contrast. A generous coating of trichomes gives the flowers a frosty appearance. The strain's aroma combines earthy, woody notes with sweet berry undertones and hints of citrus.
Panama Blue is known for its balanced sativa effects that provide mental stimulation without excessive anxiety or racing thoughts. The high typically begins with cerebral activation and creative energy, gradually transitioning to mild physical relaxation. This makes it suitable for daytime use when focus and productivity are desired. The strain has gained recognition in both medical and recreational cannabis communities for its reliable effects and appealing sensory characteristics.

Panama Blue Strain Growing Information
Panama Blue is considered moderately difficult to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 9-11 weeks indoors and are ready for harvest by late October outdoors. Indoor yields average 14-18 ounces per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 16-22 ounces per plant. This strain thrives in both indoor and outdoor environments but prefers warm, Mediterranean-like climates with consistent temperatures. Plants can reach heights of 5-7 feet outdoors and 3-5 feet indoors with proper training. Regular pruning is recommended to improve airflow and light penetration. The strain responds well to SCROG (Screen of Green) and LST (Low Stress Training) techniques to maximize yields. Panama Blue has moderate resistance to common molds and pests but requires good ventilation to prevent bud rot in dense colas.
