Blackberry Dream is an energizing combination of Super Silver Haze and Kimbo Kush created by Elev8 Seeds. This hybrid strain features 70% sativa content with 30% indica characteristics and THC levels that test between 15-28% and low levels of CBD, depending on growing conditions.

Not to be confused with Blue Dream, the Blackberry Dream strain (cultivar) reportedly features a bouquet of spicy, herb-laden berries that pervade whatever room they enter. Its tangy, earthy flavors are enhanced by a layer of fruit, making it one of the more anecdotally desirable strains on the market.

Blackberry Dream’s sativa-characteristic effects act fast, producing a rush of energy that helps focus wayward thoughts, making it useful for those with attention disorders. After some time, the high reportedly become more physical, producing pain-relieving, calming effects that simultaneously soothe contrary or depressive thoughts.

Terpenes

The dominant terpenes in Blackberry Dream are myrcene, limonene, and beta-caryophyllene. Myrcene is well-known for its anti-inflammatory properties that help to minimize the experience of pain.

Citrusy limonene also has its share of anti-inflammatory benefits and uplifting properties that help lighten the burden of depression. The peppery beta-caryophyllene is also a mood booster and works on inflammation to soothe pain, swelling, and other issues arising from inflammation, such as lupus and IBS.

Flavonoids

Flavonoids are one of the lesser-known compounds in cannabis, and little is known about the flavonoids present in each strain because they are rarely tested. Like terpenes, flavonoids add to each strain’s flavor and fragrance profile.

Studies have shown that the major flavonoids present in all cannabis plants are cannflavins A, B, and C.
