Blucifer
Blucifer
Also known as: Bluefer, Blue Lucifer
Overview
Blucifer is a sativa-dominant hybrid cannabis strain developed by Terraform Genetics in 2013 through the crossing of Conspiracy Kush and Blue Dream. This strain exhibits 70% sativa dominance, resulting in energizing yet balanced effects that have made it popular among recreational and medical cannabis users alike. The strain's name is a nod to Blue Mustang, the 32-foot, electric-blue statue that guards Denver International Airport and is famously nicknamed "Blucifer," reflecting the cultivar's Colorado pedigree. Blucifer stands out visually with its distinctive appearance, featuring small to average-sized flowers with multicolored leaves displaying a mottled mix of green and purple, with the purple hue coming from high concentrations of anthocyanin in the strain's genetics. These eye-catching buds have a fluffy sativa-influenced structure and are threaded through with bright orange pistils while being coated in cloudy, translucent trichomes. The strain's THC content has been measured at between 16% and 25%, making it a potent option for experienced users. CBD is typically low in this sativa-leaning hybrid at under 1% in most phenotypes, with the focus remaining on THC-driven effects.

Growing Information
Blucifer can be cultivated both indoors and outdoors with equal success, though it requires some previous growing experience due to its stretching characteristics typical of sativa-dominant plants. The sativa-dominant genetics become visible early as Blucifer plants tend to stretch considerably, requiring growers to be more hands-on to control plant size. Indoor flowering time ranges from 8 to 9 weeks, with some growers harvesting as early as 7 weeks. Expected indoor yields range between 12 to 16 ounces per square meter. Indoor cultivation benefits from topping plants early and using Low-Stress Training methods like Screen of Green to manage height and increase cola production. For outdoor success, the strain requires a semi-humid, Mediterranean-like climate, and growers can enhance purple coloring by exposing crops to cold nighttime temperatures before flowering begins. The strain is only available as clones rather than seeds, making it more suitable for experienced growers knowledgeable about soilless growing methods.
