Ukiah Berry
Also known as: Ukiah Blueberry, Ukiah Blue
Ukiah Berry Strain Overview
Ukiah Berry is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain that originated in the Ukiah region of Mendocino County, California. The strain was developed by local growers in the Emerald Triangle region during the late 1990s and early 2000s, though its exact breeding history remains somewhat obscure due to the underground nature of cannabis cultivation during that period. It represents a classic example of the berry-flavored indica strains that became popular in Northern California's cannabis culture.
The strain is characterized by dense, medium-sized buds that display a distinctive color palette ranging from deep forest green to purple hues, often accented by vibrant orange pistils. The buds are typically coated in a generous layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance. Ukiah Berry is known for its pronounced sweet berry aroma with earthy undertones, which becomes more complex when the buds are broken apart or smoked.
Ukiah Berry has maintained regional popularity in Northern California but has not achieved widespread commercial distribution like some other berry strains. Its effects are typically described as deeply relaxing and physically soothing, making it a favorite among indica enthusiasts seeking evening or nighttime use. The strain's terpene profile contributes to its distinctive flavor and aroma characteristics, though specific terpene percentages can vary between different phenotypes and growing conditions.

Ukiah Berry Strain Growing Information
Ukiah Berry is considered a moderate difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The strain has a flowering time of approximately 8-9 weeks when grown indoors, with outdoor harvest typically occurring in late September to early October in Northern Hemisphere climates. Indoor yields are moderate, averaging 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-700 grams per plant under optimal conditions.
The plant tends to stay relatively compact, reaching heights of 3-4 feet indoors and 4-6 feet outdoors. It prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with warm days and cool nights when grown outdoors. Indoor cultivation requires good air circulation and humidity control to prevent mold, as the dense buds can be susceptible to moisture-related issues. The strain responds well to both soil and hydroponic growing methods, though soil cultivation often enhances the terpene profile. Regular pruning and training techniques like topping or low-stress training can help maximize yields and light penetration.
