Blueberry is a classic hybrid-indica strain resulting from the crossing of Afghani, Thai, Durban Poison, and Silver Haze. This combination is credited for establishing a genetic foundation for many subsequent varieties. It is a strain that requires a moderate level of grower expertise, with a flowering phase that typically concludes in 56 days and provides a medium yield in an indoor environment.
The chemical profile of this THC-dominant strain is defined by a complex array of terpenes, beginning with myrcene as the primary constituent, followed by limonene, caryophyllene, pinene, beta-pinene, bisabolol, and humulene. This specific combination directs the sensory experience, providing a nuanced aromatic and flavor profile consistent with the observed variety.
Effects associated with Blueberry include feelings of relaxed, sleepy, and happy. Its efficacy in addressing symptoms of stress, sleep, and pain makes it a functional choice for those seeking these specific therapeutic applications. The strain serves as the parent to a wide-reaching genetic legacy, including offspring such as Bambala, BB Dawg Candy, Epsilon, Sodalicious, Blueberry Birthday Cake, Black Cherry Gelato, Blue Monster Holk, Indigo Berry Kush, April O'Neil, Auto Blue Amnesia, Avalon, and Azure Haze.

Russo 2011: naloxone-sensitive analgesia, potentiates barbiturate sleep; dominant sedating terpenoid; blocks hepatic carcinogenesis by aflatoxin.
Russo 2011: increases serotonin in prefrontal cortex + dopamine in hippocampus via 5-HT1A; Johns Hopkins 2024: significantly reduced anxiety vs THC alone.

Effects
Reported effects — derived from terpene chemistry and cannabinoid profile.
relaxed
eveningPrimary endpoint of myrcene+linalool sedating combinations; GABA modulation is the dominant mechanistic driver.
sleepy
eveningMyrcene potentiates barbiturate sleep (Russo 2011); CBN 2024 RCT reduces nighttime awakenings at 20 mg; nerolidol+myrcene+linalool GABAergic compounded effect.
happy
anytimeGenetic Profile
Indica-dominant
Primarily indica with sativa influence. Relaxing body with some cerebral lift.
THC-Dominant
High THC, trace CBD. Psychoactive. Full CB1 agonism — euphoria, appetite, analgesia.

Decided to wake and bake some Blueberry and that was a mistake. Got way too sleepy way too fast and spent the whole morning zoned out on the couch. Definitely a nighttime strain, I guess I learned my lesson.
Blueberry is my go-to for stress. A few hits from the bong and I'm floating, then crash hard. This strain gets me feeling good before bed, really helps me shut down after a long day.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Blueberry indica or sativa?
Blueberry is modeled here as a indica-dominant (primarily indica with sativa influence).
What terpene is dominant in Blueberry?
Myrcene is shown as the dominant terpene at approximately ~60%. Limonene follows as the secondary terpene.
Is Blueberry good for daytime use?
Blueberry is versatile and works across different times of day depending on dose and individual response.
