Blue Satellite
Also known as: Blue Satellite #2, Blue Satellite #2.2
Overview
Blue Satellite is a distinguished sativa-dominant hybrid cannabis strain created in the late 1990s to early 2000s by Canadian breeder collective Spice of Life Seeds, led by Breeder Steve. The strain is the offspring of Blueberry Sativa and Shishkaberry, representing a purposeful cross that emerged during a period when Blueberry-derived cultivars were redefining flavor and bag appeal across the Pacific Northwest and British Columbia. This genetic blending preserves about 70% sativa genetics to imbue the strain with uplifting and energizing qualities, while the remaining 30% indica genetics provide a balanced growth structure. The strain has earned 'connoisseur classic' status among collectors of Blueberry family genetics and continues to be sought by aficionados who want a throwback sensory profile with contemporary resin coverage. Blue Satellite's impressive flowers range from medium to large, clinging together in distinct spade-like shapes that taper from a broad base to a pointed tip, with densely-packed buds despite the strain's sativa leanings. The buds display vibrant green colors with hints of blue and purple, covered in frosty trichomes that indicate their potency and quality.

Growing Information
Blue Satellite is suitable for both indoor and outdoor growing with a flowering period of about 7-8 weeks. Due to its sativa nature, plants are likely to stretch during flowering, making it ideal for indoor growers with ample vertical space. The strain has moderate difficulty to grow and produces high yields. Outdoor cultivation requires a semi-humid climate with daytime temperatures between 70 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit. Plants grow particularly tall due to sativa influence and may require pruning, with flowering times potentially extending to 9 weeks or longer. Cultivation can be a rewarding challenge, best suited for those with some growing experience, as the strain thrives in controlled environments where light, temperature, and humidity can be closely monitored.
