Blue Frost
Also known as: Blf
Overview
Blue Frost is a striking indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain (60% indica/40% sativa) created by UK-based breeder Goldenseed through the crossbreeding of Blue Monster and Jack Frost. This strain derives its name from its exceptionally frosted appearance, characterized by dense clusters of crystalline trichomes that create a silvery sheen and appear tinted blue under proper lighting. The lineage from Blue Monster bestows robust growth patterns and distinctive blue-purple coloration when exposed to cooler temperatures, while Jack Frost contributes potent effects and abundant trichome production. Blue Frost exhibits a unique visual presentation with small to medium-sized conical buds that display mossy green foliage interspersed with patches of pale blue and deep violet hues, all covered in a thick coating of translucent white trichomes that give the strain its signature frosty appearance.
The strain's complex aromatic profile combines sweet fruity notes reminiscent of berries and blueberries with unexpected sharp, cheesy undertones and earthy, herbal accents. This sophisticated flavor profile translates to the smoke, offering a multi-layered experience that balances fruity sweetness with pungent cheese-like flavors and minty overtones. Blue Frost has established itself as a premium strain among connoisseurs and medical users alike, known for delivering balanced effects that combine mental clarity with physical relaxation. With THC levels consistently ranging from 15-22% and minimal CBD content around 1%, this strain provides substantial potency while maintaining manageability for experienced users seeking therapeutic benefits without overwhelming sedation.

Growing Information
Blue Frost is considered moderately challenging to grow, making it more suitable for intermediate to experienced cultivators. The strain has a longer flowering period of 9-11 weeks when grown indoors, requiring patience but rewarding growers with quality over speed. Indoor yields typically range from 3-6 ounces per square meter (400-550 g/m²) with proper lighting and ventilation. The plant grows to a moderate height of 5-8 feet and responds well to training techniques like SCROG (Screen of Green). Outdoor cultivation thrives in Mediterranean-like climates with consistent sunshine and semi-humid conditions, with harvest typically occurring in late September to early October. Temperature control is crucial - maintaining 70-80°F (21-27°C) during the day and allowing 5-10°F drops at night enhances the strain's signature blue coloration. The strain benefits from well-draining, organic-rich soil and a balanced feeding schedule with higher nitrogen during vegetative growth and increased phosphorus and potassium during flowering.
