There are cannabis strains that have a real impact among growers and consumers, plants of such an exceptional quality that, when legalisation arrives, their sale will end up being a complete success. That is what has happened with Blue Dream which, according to a recent study created by the analysis company BDS Analytics, who have thousands of strains in their databases, is number 1 in terms of sales in both Colorado and Washington. This is without taking into account the popularity the plant has had for a long time in California given that it was developed there, specifically, in Humboldt county. For years it has been among the top 10 most requested strains thanks to its quality and the fact that it has a THC level of 18%, among other factors. Those responsible for creating this report have spent years working to collect information about the legal sale of recreational cannabis and medical cannabis, thanks to data provided by dispensaries and other distribution centres. Roy Bingham, managing director and founder of BDS Analytics, believes that the success of Blue Dream resides in the fact that the market itself, just like this cannabis, is becoming ever more sophisticated.

Also, growers state that this Blue Dream seeds are a very easy to plant that obtains significant results and that anybody can have a go with it. It is highly resistant to threats such as powdery mildew and by using very little light you can obtain a great crop indoors. Its clones always provide good results; therefore, it becomes a specimen that any grower would dream of using in optimised systems such as the SOG method. On the other hand, its seeds are easy to find at banks such as the Humboldt Seed Organisations, which has committed to a strain like this, which is looks like it will last. Also, it can be used to create delicious concentrates which taste of sandalwood and blueberries. According to laboratory tests, it has high terpene content, including myrcene, terpinolene and caryophyllene. Its consumption acts a bronchodilator and it works very well to calm headaches, anxiety and depression. That is why it usually becomes the perfect remedy for people over the age of 40. All of these characteristics have managed to make Blue Dream seeds so popular. The DJ Short Blueberry and Super Silver Haze have become modern icons thanks to Blue Dream which has also become a reflection of the new hybrid lineage movement, which has also contributed to demand for it.

How to grow Blue Dream seeds

It is also worth bearing in mind that the quick and aggressive growth of the plant is combined with a vigorous rooting system that facilitates short indoor growing periods inside, inducing the plants to enter their flowering cycle. It has a strong and robust structure which requires only a minimum level of attention during the initial phases. Those who are accustomed to growing it recommend using nets: the SCROG method works very well to get the best performance out of this variety. The use of cages is highly advisable, as Blue Dream can reach up to 4.57 metres in height and width (depending on the size of the flower pots and what the plant feeds on). Experts usually recommend using secondary white nets and end points that serve as supports. This is an especially Sativa strain that needs between 70 and 77 days to mature. It has a visual finish that combines blue and silver tones, something that makes it a very beautiful specimen which, furthermore, produces crops of more than 1 or 1.5 grams per watt of light power, therefore with some outside crops, with the strength of the sun, it is possible to obtain up to 6 kilograms per plant. Also, it smells strongly of pepper, gasoline and fruits of the forest. It has a penetrating and earthy aroma, which helps to cause an exciting, stimulating and energizing high that creates euphoria but also relaxes depending on the situation. Generally, the high usually begins with a Sativa effect and ends approximately three hours after with Indica and causing muscle relaxation and the elimination of any kind of discomfort. The most regular consumers suggest consuming it outside in order to increase creativity. Another factor that plays a role in the success of this cannabis is its marketing, where the plants quality is combined with good and innovative techniques when it comes to making it available to users. In places such as Colorado and Washington, thanks to the permissiveness of the law, plants, flowers, cannabis foods, oils and all kinds of derivative products with this strain are starting to be sold. They are presented in characteristic packaging and appear on shelves, displayed in a very attractive way.

A top seller cannabis strain

Brands tend to be increasingly emphasised, and this is also beginning to be seen with cannabis. However, with Blue Dream it is not necessary to make a lot of effort in this regard, as the name alone evokes something that anyone would want to purchase and grow, without the need for slogans. This strain, in plant form as well as with derivatives, will also have guaranteed success.

According to BDS Analytics, 63% of purchases in places that have legalised cannabis are linked to flowers or buds, while only 12% are linked to cannabis foodstuffs. The rest are different types of concentrates and presentations. At the moment, it seems that the near future will revolve around these concentrates, especially in Washington, although it is a very young market which will surely bring lots of surprises. Of course, a product with the characteristics of Blue Dream seeds could overcome any challenge it faces along the way. It does not appear that this kind of cannabis needs to adapt consumers, because it has already won them over.
