blue dream?

BD is very popular and common here in SoCal, but there are obviously a few different cuts going around. Original 'lore' had it that it was clone only and originated up around Santa Cruz, so that sounds like a good place to start a hunt for the cut. The cut I prefer has a loose, haze-ey look to the bud, a slight incense smell, distinctive blue exhale smoke with persistent, sweet 'funk' that hangs in the air. I've found the B.C. strain 'Island Sweet Skunk' to have some very similar plants to BD. Male I.S.S.'s would be a logical choice to go into an elite cut of BD if one had no related genetics.

What do you mean by "my blue dream?" Is this the blue dream i have been seeking? Please forgive me for being so new.

i didnt know about it till last week, but like these guys were saying, there might be some weaker strains out there, giving blue dream a bad name, but the fruit i found was superb. and yesterday, it was in two out of the three disp. i went to.( not the cutting, just the fruit ). but i was looking for something different this time, so i got some A- train, which seems to be a very good sativa also. but if u are anywhere near southern Ca. san diego has it at " the good place coop ", and " UNIFIED COLLECTIVE ",

Blue Dream is a great strain and a great smoke. Clone only and supposed to be from the Santa Cruz area but not confirmed. She has the very distinct taste and smell when smoked and the high is so sublime. I keep her in the garden but I have the original cut and have grown it several times. She is a great yeilder and a real good cut all around. I think people fell in love with her for just those reasons. Good smoke, good yeild, good smell and a short flower time. She really is a dream. Too bad everybody and her momma is growing her.

I'm smoking it as I type this,.....and it's just ALL over the SF bay area, it's rare when you go into a club and they DON'T have Blue Dreams (kinda over saturated out here, IMO)

it's a predom sativa with a nice "indica" like kick towards the end of the high

I grew it because it yields 2+oz per plant indoors (1K-hps/soil), but I did NOT expect to like the high as much as I do.

I let mine go 70 days before I harvested, and to be honest, I had mostly clear gland heads, and only a very few cloudy, and NO amber,...but it kicks you in the head very well.

Great strain, get it if you possibly can

I didn't know it originated in the Santa Cruz Area. I happen to also have originated in the Santa Cruz Area was well.

I started smoking about 10 years ago. At the time the two dominant strains in "my" valley were Trainwreck from Lompico, and White Rhino from up in Bonny Doon. There was other stuff around of course, lots of "humboldt" and a good deal of sativa outdoor organics.

Blue Dream didn't really hit the scene out there, as far as I can tell, up until about 6 years ago. I remember the first time I had it, gave me that kind of "too stoned" to go grocery shopping feeling. The paranoia was intense and the high was very heady. This was just around the time I'd had a knee surgery, so I'd been smoking a lot for the pain, and just a few hits of this stuff got me spun.

Now, I know a guy, who knows a girl, who has a brother that is known as Mountain Mike. This guy has been growing bud with his family for YEARS and if anyone in the Santa Cruz Area was blending Haze (or Sativa dom skunk) and Blueberry Genetics it'd been that guy.

The Blue Mystic from Greenway in Santa Cruz sells out the day it hits the shelf. Finding it there is tough despite the flood of it in the area. The smoke they get is VERY blue, with strong berry and sweet flavors. Kind of like butter pecan pancakes with blueberry syrup. There is also a kind of sharp Hazish flavor at the end of the smoke that always makes my mouth go leaky faucet.

The Blue Mystic I got from another dealer in my area was good stuff, but different. Less berry flavor, more couch lock, same paranoia. Could be method related more than genetic related though because it was still very clearly Blue Dream.

So in my area, if it smells like the redwoods then it's Lompico Trainwreck. If it's absolute fire and has a very hashy flavor then it's probably the Bonny Doon White Rhino. Sativa dom and smells like rotten fruit is the Blue Dream. Santa Cruz indica is usually SoCal based Kush genetics or nor cal based widow. Everything else is outdoor skunk, the hippies down by Borders off Pacific Ave. will sell you decent dime bags of the stuff if you run dry.

I do have to put that Lompico Trainwreck as number 1 on my list though. The shit was epic, it's what hooked me and I've been looking for a cut of the plant for about a year now. I know the guy I used to get the stuff from so maybe some day. The Blue Dream though, if it did come from the Santa Cruz Area, I'd bet money that Mountain Mike or the Sanchez Bros. in Boulder Creek had something to do with it.

NIce lazy,
So much info on the strain in question.
So comparing blue mystic to blue dream, are they similar in genetics that you can tell? Or completly diff.?. If that blue mystic is selling out everywhere perhaps thats where I should start.

Well... As it would happen I'm growing some Blue Mystic right now. About 4 weeks in to flowering.

What I can say is that Blue Mystic is a true hybrid. It shows Indica heritage during early veg, with the sativa shape of leaves arriving during flowering. It is budding and swelling quicker than my Skunks, so I'm thinking about a 65 day flowering period will be appropriate.

Nutrients for my Blue Mystic has been difficult to dial in. I had a minor pH imbalance that they responded to with a K deficiency. I treated that and then got an Mg deficiency. I treated that and then got a P deficiency. After treating all of that now I'm seeing minor nutrient burn.

It vegged like a breeze but it's all pissy compared to my lemon skunks and cole train now that I'm in flowering. I've done a lot of research in to this strain and everyone else that grows it has a hell of a time keeping it healthy during flowering. It is advertised as sativa dom, but my Lemon Skunk (which is supposed to be indica dom) has more of a sativa back bone that my Mystics do.

I imagine that Blue Mystic is better suited to an organic soil grow than the Hydro-Organic Coco run I'm doing now. Hydro has made fixing issues easy but the plant has no constitution for imbalances.

Right now I'm running 1/5th strength nutrients and I've cut my calcium supplement out (I think I'm locking out nutrients with a Ca excess). The plants aren't necessarily doing bad, they just aren't lush like they used to be, and I'd classify Blue Mystic as an advanced growers strain for sure. Definitely something that requires a bit of practice, finesse, and experience. They don't eat much on the upside so that could save a lot of money in the long run on nutrients.

Death to the Mystics' Enemies! (tell me what that's from for 5 bonus points)

I haven't grown Blue Dream, but I hear it is easy to grow, and it handles High EC/PPM very well. I am pretty sure that Blue Dream is supposed to be a BlueberryxHaze concoction while Blue Mystic is a BlueberryxSkunk (though it could very well have some NL genetics). I usually prefer my skunk blends (Skunk x Hindu Kush is bomb) which is why I chose Blue Mystic over Blue Dream to grow this time around.

I think that's from legacy of demetrius? Either that or Warcraft. Either way, I think some orcs were involved. Just my two cents, I have to go Hazes over skunks.

anyone got pics of either? i would love to see em

The Blue Mystic is on the left in this picture. 1 of those 6 is a sharks breath (front left).

In the rest of the pictures I highlighted a few of those blue mystic plants about 7 weeks later with an outline of Santa's face. The close up shots are of the frostier bud now 4 weeks in to flowering.

this is a first i believe seeing claim of an incense trait intriguing

always thought this too be a fruity weak strain ,i hadnt had much interest in her until recently somone i highly respect spoke good about her sayin she was spicy and powerful also.

rainman

great pics brother

considering you say you hav the original cut and i respect your opinion ,id love to hear a smoke report ,im curious as too the taste/aromas you detect

Here's a couple in different stages, I was gifted some BD cuttings whose mother came from Harborside. Do these look like the stuff?



(They came with the borg which has messed up the room, but neem is keeping it in check. You can see the damage on older leaves. Dads, don't forget to check your girls for crabs if they've been near oakland lately! (JK))

These have been a cinch to root and veg and have been subjected to temps as high as 111 'til I got my issues sorted (they stay around 78 now). The scrog attempt is looking great. I have a kush and BlueCheese in scrog at the same stage, too, and the BD is putting them to shame after just 10 days. I haven't smoked any of those 3 strains yet, BTW. If these look like the right stuff, BD is working its way towards the midwest, I assure you!

My as in the cut I have. I really could not tell you if there are differing genetics between BD cuts out and about, but I have Blue Dream, and it is a 8 week strain. I was lucky enough to obtain some cuts about 1.5 years ago. Fairly easy to grow, good finisher.

Tell ya it's made it's way to CO... in a dispensary & they are attempting to pump it... flagship & all... sell cuttings

Too bad it came out commercial... but that place has nothing but mold & bugs in their store... likely their entire flower room is like this too!


Depspite the source... doubt I'll ever bother smokin on it again... they even had other commercial hack that smoked better... just to say, if ya never got the cut, could likely find much better out there...??? Wasn't moved on the high at all... ho hum...
