Blue Dream cannabis is one of the most recognizable strains in the cannabis world. Whether you’re well-versed in the various strains or just a casual smoker, a recreational consumer or a medical one, you’ve probably heard of Blue Dream. Here’s a breakdown of your favorite strain, including its origins, flavor profiles and insights into why people love it so much.

Being birthed from the Blueberry strain, it is no surprise that the first whiff of this strain is of fruit, specifically berries. You could be whisked away to berry picking or fresh summer fruits when you inhale Blue Dream.

Some also smell citrus, and still, others characterize it with hints of floral or sandalwood notes.

This is one strain that will leave a lasting impression, in your nose and on your belongings. The pungent aroma just means that you’re getting the most out of your bud.

Unsurprisingly, the flavor of this strain is fruity and floral. Where other strains lack in presence when it comes to flavor, this one will certainly not disappoint. Some reviewers note hints of lavender on their tongue, and still more say it is an excellent balance of woodsy and crisp.

While the energetic and, sometimes, darting effect of this strain can be difficult for sufferers of severe anxiety, it’s uplifting effects can also benefit during bouts of depressions or exhaustion.

Blue Dream is a great choice for those with chronic pain, headaches or severe mental fatigue. If you are simply feeling overworked, overtired, achy and upset, Blue Dream is a great strain option to reduce those effects.

Moreover, this strain is a great appetite inducer — if you have a loss of appetite due to medication, this might be your solution.

Because of the low percentage of CBD and CBN in this strain, it is not highly recommended for those battling severe medical conditions. While some strains have been shown to reduce symptoms of epilepsy, side effects of cancer treatment, neurological disorders and Multiple Sclerosis, this strain is not the best choice for those conditions.

Blue Dream also may not be right if you have diagnosed anxiety as the high THC content tends to make some feel unsettled and anxious.
