Hybrid

Blackberry Fire

Blackberry Fire is a diesel-flavored combination of Blackberry Kush and Fire Lady created by the breeders at Purple Caper Seeds. This cultivar contains 70% indica and 30% sativa characteristics, with THC testing at approximately 23% and little-to-no CBD present.

The Blackberry Fire strain features a sweet, berry-esque aroma with hints of a diesel stink. A deeper whiff of these dense, spherical flowers yields hashy notes attributed to the strain’s Kush genetics, whereas their smoke produces a sweeter, more tart berry flavor.

Blackberry Fire took home second place at the 2016 HempCon Cup Awards, where it was lauded for its mix of psychedelic cerebral effects and heavy physical relaxation. Its potent, balanced mixture makes Blackberry Fire helpful for various medical uses, including depression, insomnia, and chronic pain.

Terpenes

Blackberry Fire features a terpene profile of strong-smelling terpenes, including myrcene, limonene, and beta-caryophyllene. Myrcene has well-documented sedative effects and anti-inflammatory properties. Limonene also has its share of anti-inflammatory benefits and uplifting properties that help lighten depressive moods. Beta-caryophyllene, the peppery terpene, produces its share of uplifting effects that can help cheer up patients. Its ability to combat inflammation makes it handy for soothing pain-related swelling or overactive immune responses.

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.

Medical Applications

Due to its abundance of THC and mix of terpenes, medical marijuana patients look to Blackberry Fire for aid in treating depression or quelling the anxiety of stress. Others also harness Blackberry Fire’s sedative effects to ease the experience of pain or cultivate restful sleep.

Depression

Blackberry Fire’s soothing effects can reduce the severity of depression, thanks to its limonene content, while converting dark thoughts into a tranquil state of serenity.

Anxiety, Panic Disorders

Similarly to how it helps with depression, Blackberry Fire’s relaxing and positive effects make it a practical choice for easing stress when it becomes overwhelming.

Chronic Pain, Muscle Pain and Other Types of Pain

Blackberry Fire’s myrcene content works in tandem with THC to relieve the mental experience of pain in chronic or acute conditions and to work on inflammation, a key element of numerous health concerns.

Insomnia

The cultivar also produces such a powerful relaxation that those experiencing insomnia choose it to get a good night’s sleep.

Dosing

Dosing is a highly personal experience; one cannabis user may experience an utterly different outcome with a cultivar than another. Blackberry Fire’s sedative properties make it a more helpful strain for those prone to panic with high doses of THC.

However, the strain still features more than 20% THC content and is recommended for more experienced consumers. We recommend starting with a low dose of Blackberry Fire and waiting to evaluate your response to minimize the chance of experiencing anxiety or paranoia. Remember, everyone’s endocannabinoid system is different, and the goal is to find the best minimum dose for your desired health outcome.
