Strain History
Fast Flowering Blueberry takes one of the tastiest strains ever and reduces the flowering time down to 50-55 days. Most cannabis enthusiasts are familiar with DJ Short’s famous Blueberry strain which won Best Overall Strain at the 2000 High Times Cannabis Cup in Amsterdam. Her genetic makeup is a mix of Oregon Purple Thai, Highland Thai, Afghani, and an auto-flowering male. Blueberry is 80% indica with 15% sativa and 5% ruderalis.
Blueberry Fast Appearance
Blueberry Fast Flowering produces giant colas relative to the overall size of the plant. The buds are deep green with red and purple coloring and even some hints of blue popping up. The crystals are snowy white and cover not just the flowers but also a good amount of the sugar leaves. Dried buds are spear-shaped and have round calyxes with juicy resin heads all over.
Flavors
Above all else, Blueberry is about flavor. There are very few strains that can compare to the delicious musky and sweet berry taste of an original Blueberry. An impressive amount of today’s most popular elite hybrids are built upon this very strain. The smoke is extremely smooth and contains notes of vanilla, pine, berries, and bubblegum.
Terpenes
Blueberry Fast Flowering’s dominant terpene is myrcene, which is responsible for the sweet berry flavor. Smaller amounts of caryophyllene, pinene, and linalool add some herbaceous and spicy floral notes. Myrcene is the most abundant terpene in cannabis strains as well as other medicinal plants like lemongrass and thyme. Strains like this with high amounts of myrcene can provide a relaxing effect that helps soothe the stomach and ease minor aches and pains.
Cannabinoids
Fast Blueberry is optimal for medical consumers looking to make use of the therapeutic benefits of cannabis. The average THC content is 19-23%. CBD is less than 1% but, the entourage effect of the terpenes with the cannabinoids can produce a highly relaxing feeling sought after by many patients. Most cannabis dispensaries will offer one if not multiple variations of the Blueberry strain.
Fast Flowering Blueberry Effects
Blueberry Fast Flowering still provides the relaxing indica blanket effect that many users love about the original Blueberry. The high starts behind the third eye and then progressively moves down the rest of the body. The initial onset is fun and spacey. Be careful to not get tempted by the amazing taste and smoke too much because before you know it, you’ll be lying on the floor in a stupor.
Growing Blueberry Fast Flowering Seeds
During early growth, Blueberry Fast Flowering keeps low, with tight internodal spacing. The buds on the main branches usually come together to form one giant cola. Plants produce little excess leaf which makes it really fast and easy to trim. In just 9 weeks from seed, this variety can yield about 16oz/m2. Outdoor Blueberry plants can do very well and harvest close to 8oz/plant and finish flowering by mid-October. Thanks to the mostly vertical growth, Blueberry grows well using the SOG method where the blue and purple colas form an army of amazing blue and purple colored colas.
