All About the Blue Dream Strain Effects and Benefits
Starting from humble beginnings and relative obscurity, the Blue Dream strain effects are now some of the most enjoyed across America. Drawn by a sweet blueberry pie aroma, novice and experienced consumers both ask for the Blue Dream strain by name. After enjoying the sweet, sugary inhales and relaxing blueberry exhales, many consumers report an uplifted and energized euphoria that can be focused and very creative. Some have reported therapeutic benefits that include relief from pain and reduced anxiety.
Genetics, Potency, and Appearance of the Blue Dream Strain
Genetics:
The reason Blue Dream effects are so powerful is because this strain has legendary parents. Blueberry Indica strains, known for a strong cerebral euphoria, and Haze Sativa strains, enjoyed for the energizing feeling, have been in California since the 1970s. But it wasn’t until 2003 that the two were crossed to create the Blue Dream strain.
Potency:
Blue Dream is a Sativa-dominant hybrid strain that is 60% Sativa and 40% Indica. The potency level of Blue Dream is anywhere from 17% – 24% THC and 0.1% – 0.2% CBD. It is the lower CBD percentage that helps to create such a strong euphoric feeling.
Appearance:
Whether it is grown indoors or outdoors, Blue Dream flower has the same appearance. They are dense and fluffy. Most of them are popcorn-shaped and bright neon green with amber and light purple hairs. Each flower is richly dusted with sandy white trichomes.
Blue Dream Strain Terpene profile
The beautiful berry scent and tasty blueberry pie flavor are a result of Blue Dream’s complex terpene profile. All plants have a terpene profile that contributes to the aroma. In the cannabis sativa plant, a little more than a dozen terpenes have been identified. The most prominent one in Blue Dream is Myrcene followed by Alpha-pinene and Beta-caryophyllene.
Myrcene:
Scent: Earthy, fruity, and clove-like. Also found in hops, mango, thyme, and lemongrass.
Effects: Many people say it relieves stress and anxiety at the end of the day. Research has shown Myrcene also helps reduce inflammation.
Alpha-pinene:
Scent: Very strong pine with a slightly minty fragrance. Also found in pine, cedar, and sage.
Effects: Reported to help reduce anxiety while making someone more talkative. Studies show that this terpene helps as an anti-nausea and antioxidant.
Beta-caryophyllene:
Scent: Sweet clove and wood with a hint of pepper. Also found in oregano, basil, and pepper.
Effects: Many say it helps reduce anxiety and helps them relax in social settings. Studies have shown that Beta-caryophyllene can also relieve pain while reducing cholesterol.
Blue Dream Strain Effects
Blue Dream is a Sativa-dominant by a very thin margin. Because it is so close to a true hybrid, this strain has equally strong effects on both parents. Many report the effect to be a nice balance of intensely relaxing euphoria and strong mood enhancer. Others report a motivation boost and focus coupled with a rush of creativity. Due to the higher THC potency level of Blue Dream, these effects can be very strong.
Many like to consume Blue Dream throughout the day because it can help overcome big projects or reduce stress very quickly. Others like to save Blue Dream for the end of the day to help reduce pain and improve sleep.
Blue Dream Strain Benefits
The Blue Dream strain was originally released to the public through the California medicinal program because of its strong therapeutic benefits. Many patients continue to turn to this potent and balanced strain to assist with many ailments. Below are just a few.
