The Lineage of Australian Blue

Blue Haze is 80% sativa and has an above average THC content reaching to 24% with CBD content of .6%. Named "Best Sativa" at the High Times Cannabis Cup 2001, it has a similar profile to Blue Dream, another favorite strain. The buds are standard green, dense, sticky, and covered in frosty crystals. They are medium to large and cylindrical. Due to its resin-density, Australian Blue is challenging to break up.

The plant is thick and lacks an abundance of leaves. Experience is needed to grow Australian Blue, as it is susceptible to molds and mildew.

Australian Duck is of unknown origin.

Growing Australian Blue

Australian Blue is more for moderate users and tends to grow tall. It can be grown both indoors and outdoors. It doesn't have to grow in its Australia. However, environmental conditions must be similar. These conditions include dry and sunny moderate temperature environment.

Those who grow cannabis at home experience okay yields in any growing medium, including a variety of soils, when cultivating Australian Blue. Indoors takes 75 to 80 days and will yield about 0.75 ounces per plant. When grown outdoors, plants must be harvested in mid-November and will have a relatively low yield.

Where to Find Australian Blue

Australian Blue is found commonly on its homeland, yet the strain undergoes cultivation in North America and has even been found in Europe as well. States including California, Oregon, Arizona, and New Mexico have seen the strain crop up here and there, with little consistency.
