Blue Sunshine
Overview
Blue Sunshine is an indica-dominant hybrid strain (60% indica/40% sativa) created through crossing Blue Dream and Sunshine Daydream strains. Originally developed by Bodhi Seeds, this strain has gained popularity for its balanced effects and appealing characteristics. Named for its gorgeous appearance and celebrity parentage, Blue Sunshine is a great choice for any fan of its parent strains. The strain's genetic lineage traces to Blue Dream, a legendary combination of Blueberry and Super Silver Haze, crossed with Sunshine Daydream, a potent blend of Appalachia and Bubbashine.
Visually, Blue Sunshine has flat and spade-shaped minty green nugs with deep blue undertones and a coating of frosty, tiny gold and blue-tinted white crystal trichomes. As you pull apart each sparkling little nugget, aromas of sweet fruity blueberries and fresh woody pine are released. The flavor is very similar, although on the sweeter side, with a fresh blueberry overtone accented by sweet creamy sugar and a touch of pine. The one of a kind aroma has notes of creamy kush, blue cake frosting, and sweet berry pine with undertones of pungent herbal piney dankness when the buds are broken up.
With THC levels ranging from 16.8% to 21%, and a distinct terpene profile featuring myrcene, caryophyllene, and limonene, Blue Sunshine offers an extraordinary sensory experience. The strain has established itself as a versatile option for both recreational and medical users, appreciated for its reliable performance and balanced hybrid nature.

Some phenotypes report higher yields of 600-700 grams per square meter indoors and 1000-1400 grams per plant outdoors. The strain is known for its relatively short flowering time, typically ranging from 8 to 10 weeks. Blue Sunshine is suitable for both indoor and outdoor growth environments, making it a versatile option for growers. One grower noted that certain phenotypes may have low mold resistance, so proper environmental controls are important. The strain responds well to training techniques and is considered moderate difficulty to grow, requiring attention to environmental conditions for optimal yields.
