~ HUMBOLDT SEED ORGANIZATION 'BLUE DREAM' ~
(Blueberry x Super Silver Haze)
"Cali genetics have gained international fame and recognition thanks to their exceptional traits, and Blue Dream is a great example of that: a strain with very special features, all the spirit of the west coast. But let's see why this blue Cali dream has become so famous:
The legend that became a bestseller
It's true that our Blue Dream has turned into the number-one-selling strain of our catalogue, but, behind that achievement, there are many months of hard work. We wanted to release a strain that would break the established standards, which is why we selected two outstanding genetics to cross: Super Silver Haze and DJ Short's Blueberry. After a long selection process, we all tasted the resulting hybrid and agreed that there was something really big going on.
Why is it that people like Blue Dream so much?
Although it's true that Blue Dream is a blessing for cannabis growers, we can state that the key to her success lies in her effect and her taste. Verified. Even the most experienced marijuana lovers are fascinated by her balanced effect that starts with a pleasant cerebral high, typical of Sativa genetics, and turns more physically relaxing as time passes by. The perfect choice for daytime use, because she doesn't cause paranoia but provides a nice cerebral buzz. With THC levels going up to 19 %, the high delivered by Blue Dream gives our senses a massage that raises the spirits; more or less like a shot of endorphins that could promote creativity, help us fully enjoy a good concert or simply a pleasant evening with friends. That exciting sensation is partly provoked by the terpene profile of this strain. According to the evidence obtained in the lab, Blue Dream has a high myrcene, terpinolene and caryophyllene content. This results in a super intense and piercing aroma that has earned her a well-deserved reputation as the perfect strain for the elaboration of concentrates with the taste of sandalwood and blueberries. Those who love old-school cannabis will definitely enjoy every drag of this tasty strain. An off-the-charts intensity on the palate that seduces even those who think have tried everything: lemon, pine, incense, sweet fruits and Haze. Blue Dream offers a wide variety of therapeutic benefits too. She's an effective bronchodilator that can also alleviate headaches, anxiety or depression, among others. That's why she's the pet strain of many people over 40."**

Weekly Updates:
3/21- Here we go into the 5th week of flower for the Humboldt Seed Organization Blue Dream and what a week it will be! We're just past the half-way point for this lady and she's looking pretty good, although she is getting some leaf discoloration which is concerning me a bit as it has progressed further than I'd like. I'm hoping the top dress I did yesterday will remedy the problem but it will take a week or two.
After top dressing and thoroughly watering it in yesterday, today I let the Blue Dream dry out and will check the medium with a Soil Moisture Probe tomorrow to determine when her next watering will occur.
The Humboldt Seed Organization Blue Dream is really turning it on now and she's got the canopy filled with flowers that already are getting frosty! I'm only watering and doing some minimal canopy maintenance at this point which makes this stage of flowering so darn fun! As I said previously, she has some signs of a deficiency and I'm hoping that the recent top-dress will help her recover...time will tell.
3/23- I watered the Blue Dream today with .75g of well water that I ph'd to 6.5 @ 73β. She is really stacking her flowers now and they're getting visibly covered in frosty looking trichomes along with a noticeable increase in the aroma coming off them! I went ahead and also removed all of the damaged leaves so that I can see if her deficiency is resolved or not.
3/25- Yesterday I let the Humboldt Seed Organization Blue Dream dry out and after checking the medium today, I let her go another day before getting watered again as her medium was still pretty moist. I'm not seeing any discoloration in her leaves as of yet and am keeping my fingers and toes crossed that I've got a handle on the issue now!
3/27- I watered the Blue Dream today with .75g of well water that I ph'd to 6.7 @ 72β. The leaf discoloration seems to be leveling off and I'll know better in another week if my mistake(not top dressing sooner) is somewhat fixed.
Five weeks of flower on the books now and the Humboldt Seed Organization Blue Dream is only going to get better looking from here going thru the next few weeks! Thanks for visiting!β€οΈ
