Crystalberry
Crystalberry
Also known as: Crystal Berry, Blueberry Crystal
Overview
Crystalberry is an indica-dominant hybrid (80% indica/20% sativa) strain created as a powerful cross of Sensi Star F2 X DJ Short's Blueberry. This strain emerged from a breeding program that selected from crosses using two popular and well-loved varieties – the Sensi Star and DJ Short's Blueberry. Both of Crystalberry's indica-dominant parents have the distinction of ranging outside the expected indica-driven high. Crystalberry brings together the potent indica stone with a hint of surprisingly heady euphoria usually reserved for more sativa-leaning strains.
Visually, these buds have dense dark forest green nugs with gorgeous purple and blue undertones and surprisingly vibrant red hairs speckled throughout. These nugs are completely caked with frosty crystal trichomes and visible sweet sticky resin, which explains the "crystal" portion of the strain's name. Where this plant may outshine others is in gland production, which follows in papa Sensi Star's footsteps. The strain is notable for its impressively prismatic sheen of resin, producing a more cerebral indica that hash fans will favor.

Growing Information
Crystalberry is not a tall plant with the compact structure of an Indica and rarely goes beyond 3 feet when cultivated indoors. Thick and sturdy in stature, Crystalberry looks like an indica and grows to a respectable yet compact size. When forced to flower at 12-16 inches, this strain reaches a height of roughly 3 feet (1 meter) at maturity. Like other Indica-dominant strains, has a short flowering period that lasts between 7 to 9 weeks. At harvest, growers can expect 10 to 12 ounces of buds per square meter. With its high resistance to the cold, Crystalberry blooms earlier from the last week of September to the middle of October. Once fully mature, each plant produces at least 12 ounces of buds. The strain is easy difficulty to grow and can be cultivated both indoors and outdoors.
