Blueberry
2/21/2015
On the advice of my friendly budtender at Karmaceuticals in Denver, I bought a Blueberry clone. It was nice and lime green and about 6 inches tall. The Clone was well-rooted in rockwool with a nice cluster of healthy, snow white roots showing from the bottom of the rockwool cube.
I took the clone home and transplanted it into a party cup full of Roots Organic potting soil. After a couple of days, I could see a change in color at the end of the growing tips and the clone began to get taller.
Once the clone was about 10 inches tall, I transplanted into a 5 gallon pot of Roots Organic potting soil. This is where the plant began to take off. Place under 12 hours of light under a high pressure sodium bulb, the plant really began to take off with particularly explosive lateral growth. The plant was becoming a bit taller, but also much bushier. I was feeding once a week with Dyna Gro Foliage Pro at a concentration of 1.0 EC and pHed to 6.8.
I topped the main colas several times. Within three weeks, there was significant bud growth and the plant was looking extremely healthy. I decided to keep the nutrient concentration pretty low at 1.0 EC because it is best to start low and see how the plant responds. 1.0 EC seemed to be enough as the leaves remained green and healthy and the bid sites kept on a coming.
Within 5 weeks, I thought the plant smelled exactly like a delicious blueberry muffin with a hint of skunk in the mix. It is a wonderful smell! The buds continued to swell throughout the grow. There was also an awesome surprise: One night after the temps dipped into the 40s in the grow room, the buds became purple!
I chopped the plant at 60 days. After a week of drying and two weeks of curing, the buds weighed in at 2.5 ozs.
This is a heavy indica smoke. It is fruity and delicious and the buzz lasts a good two hours if you can stay awake that long! This medicine melts pain and worry away, and will put you to sleep if that is what you are looking for. I would definitely recommend this strain for excellent smoke, good yield, and easy to grow.
