Blue Haze

An indica-dominant hybrid cross between Amnesia Haze and Blueberry, Blue Haze is renowned for its legacy as a 2002 High Times Cannabis Cup winner and its versatile medicinal applications. Boasting strong indica genetics and moderate to high THC levels of 16% to 26%, Blue Haze stands out among cannabis consumers for uplifting and stimulating the mind while relaxing and sedating the body.

Living up to its Blueberry lineage, Blue Haze has a sweet, fruity aroma reminiscent of a stroll through a ripe blueberry patch. Its flowering time averages between eight and 10 weeks, and it’s known to grow up to six feet tall. Novice cultivators be warned: The Blue Haze marijuana strain requires a lot of care and attention and may not be beginner-friendly.

Those who use Blue Haze medicinally report that it helps relieve migraines, headaches, stress, anxiety, and chronic pain. Like other indica-dominant hybrids, Blue Haze is often categorized as an evening strain due to its propensity to leave users sleepy and relaxed after consumption.
