Humboldt Blue Dream

~ 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."** **CREDIT: Humboldt Seed Organization ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ~THE SETUP~ ~ This will be a 100% Organic grow ~ Initially seed was planted directly into the medium. ~ Planted into a 1qt. plastic pot filled with that was hydrated with distilled water warmed to 78℉ with a 6.5 ph. ~ Seed germinated for three days before breaking ground. ~ Grown in a 10g fabric pot filled with Mother Earth 70/30 Coco/Perlite amended with Xtreme Gardening Mykos, Gaia Green 4-4-4 (2tbsp/g) / 2-8-4 (1tbsp/g) and 30% Worm Castings. ~ Top dressing every 3-4 weeks with Gaia Green slow release dry amendments and Earthworm castings. ~ Straight well water ph'd @ 6.2-6.8 when needed and bi-weekly Compost Tea's. ~ Grown under HLG 650R's with a 18/6 light cycle for vegetation, then 12/12 to flower with supplemental UVA added during the last weeks of flower.

I apologize for being a bit behind on my diary entries. I just acquired a new addition to my fam... an 11w old puppy! Her name is 'Money' and I've been spending time bonding with her. Stay tuned for some pic's of her once she's gotten settled in. I started off this week with a good watering of the Blue Dream, giving her .75g of well water, which I ph'd to 6.5 @ 72℉. I'm continuing to split the water used, 75% through the top, the rest into the pan where it is absorbed up into the medium. I also spread out a couple of her branches into the trellis net and removed some small growth that was far below the canopy in the trellis. 3/9- I'm cutting back on the amount of water to .5g as she is not drinking as much as she was previously and I want the medium to be able to be dry enough that when watered, fresh oxygen is pulled all the way through the medium and roots. I watered today with .5g of well water, to which I also added 5ml/g of Earth Juice OilyCann, and then ph'd it to 6.6 @ 73℉. The Blue Dream is looking fabulous and I can't wait to see how her flowers will develop as this is my first experience cultivating this strain! 3/11- I skipped watering today after checking the medium with a soil moisture probe and seeing that it was still VERY moist, I opted to let her go for one more day before watering. Her water consumption has noticeably dropped in the last couple of weeks and I have compensated for this by extending the times between her watering. It's pretty obvious that the Blue Dream likes her medium a bit on the dry side as she's really looking happy! 3/13- I ended this week with a good watering that I finally felt was needed after doing my daily check of the medium's moisture level via my Soil Moisture Probe. I went ahead and gave the Blue Dream .75g of of well water, to which I also added 5ml/g of Earth Juice OilyCann, and then ph'd it to 6.4 @ 74℉. Really the only issue I have noticed is on a couple of the older fan leaves there is some browning occurring just on the serrated tips of the leaves. I'm thinking that it could be a bit too much Nitrogen in the medium, which would also account for her leaf tips 'clawing', or a CalMag issue, which is what I use the OilyCann for. For now, I've increased how often I supplement the CalMag and will see if it cures the issue. Conversely, if it turns out to be a N issue, I'll just let her ride and adjust the last top dressing quantity of nitrogen, which has already been begun on the last top dress. See you next week my friends! 😎🙏❤️ 💚 Thank you for checking out my passion in life! Please visit as often as you wish and I hope you enjoy this journey as much as I know I will! Grow what you love, Love what you grow!💚
