Blue Monkey
Blue Monkey
Also known as: Blue Monkey Feminized
Overview
Blue Monkey is a feminized indica-dominant hybrid strain developed by Exotic Seed, combining the genetics of Gorilla Glue #4 with a hybrid cross of Black Domina × Blueberry that has been stabilized over many years of breeding. This strain represents a sophisticated blending of elite genetics that brings together Gorilla Glue #4's resin production and couch-lock effects, Blueberry's signature sweet berry aromatics and color potential, and Black Domina's compact structure and short flowering time. Blue Monkey was created during a period of rapid cannabis hybridization in the early 2000s when breeders began embracing precision techniques to develop strains with specific characteristics. The strain is approximately 80% indica and 20% sativa, contributing to its deeply relaxing and sedative properties. Blue Monkey produces dense, compact flowers with intricate trichome structures and high resin production, often displaying deep forest-green hues with subtle purple shades when exposed to cooler growing conditions. The branched flowers crowd along the branches without generating large central flowers, but this is compensated by the high density of the smaller flowers.

Growing Information
Blue Monkey is an intermediate-level strain to grow with a flowering time of approximately 9 weeks. Indoor yields typically range from 400-450 grams per square meter, while outdoor harvests occur around October. The strain requires support for its densely packed flowers as they mature. It grows strong and sturdy thanks to its indica genetics, reaching perfect flowering size within 15 days after germination. Blue Monkey thrives in both indoor and outdoor environments, with outdoor plants performing best in temperate to warm climates. The strain is known for its resilience and stable growth patterns, making it suitable for growers with some experience. Carbon filters are recommended during flowering due to the intense chemical-sweet aroma that develops.
