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.
Blue Diesels has been reported to have the following effects:
The following adverse effects have also been reported:
This fast-acting strain produces a pleasant, moderate- to long-lasting body buzz. Individual strains may have more or less THC depending on the individual plant and its growing conditions. The blue coloring also varies depending on when the plant has been harvested and which temperatures it has been exposed to.
Cannabis may help relieve some of the symptoms of EDS, such as chronic pain and joint issues.
Utilizing CBD and other phytocannabinoids and terpenes in cannabis may help replace the lost endocannabinoids, helping treat pain and mood disorders associated with NF1 gene mutations. Using THC may help boost dopamine levels in the brain.
Medical cannabis may also help reduce the intake of stimulant medications. Terpenes like beta-caryophyllene and limonene may be beneficial for reducing the intake of stimulants and addiction in general.
Cannabis’ ability to modulate serotonin transmission can help relieve the intensity and frequency of headaches in some cases.
A suitable THC dosage varies from user to user, and many variables are at play. The dosage depends on an individual’s unique endocannabinoid system, whether you are consuming edibles or inhaling smoke, and whether you seek pain relief, sleep, relaxation, socializing, euphoria, etc.
Blue Diesel is an excellent choice for a beginner, as it is a forgiving strain and isn’t heavily impacted by minor temperature, humidity, and water differences. However, it will respond poorly to sudden negative conditions. Even when optimal growing conditions aren’t met, the strain can produce a good crop with high yields.
Blue Diesel grows well inside and outside, though it usually provides a better yield in outside conditions. Although the plant prefers dry, sunny climates such as those found in California or the Mediterranean, it also has some resistance to mold and mildew. It can be grown in slightly more humid conditions if careful.
Blue Diesel is a medium to tall plant and may benefit from topping (removal of the upper portion of the plant) at five to seven weeks, especially when grown indoors. Plants usually grow to between 4 and 6 feet in height, depending on growing conditions and whether or not the plant is topped, and plants tend to grow taller in outside conditions.
Although Blue Diesel is somewhat resistant to the damp, low humidity helps prevent the growth of mold and mildew. The strain prefers dry, hot climates such as those found on the middle to lower West Coast of the U.S.
Flowering occurs at around 55-60 days, or in late September to early October, in the northern hemisphere. Blue Diesel is an exceptionally high producing strain when grown in good conditions, producing up to 1.8 ounces per square foot and 21 ounces per plant outdoors.
Blue Diesel strain is excellent for providing analgesic effects while still being productive. As the strain doesn’t cause hunger or fatigue, Blue Diesel is often used to improve creativity, enter a “flow state,” or make housework more pleasant.
Blue Diesel weed is a hybrid resulting in approximately 60% indica and 40% sativa.
The Blue Diesel marijuana strain primarily creates feelings of happiness and invigoration. The high THC content produces a moderate to long-lasting body buzz but can cause a headache on the comedown. Blue Diesel is very aromatic, with a sweet berry and diesel flavor.
