The dominant Indica genes of Blueberry feminized will produce a hardy plant that adapts very well to the great outdoors. Its Afghani heritage gives it superior resilience against colder temperatures. Given enough natural sun and nutrients, it will surprise you with a generous yield that outperforms other strains. On the other hand, growing it indoors allows you to control the environment better and accelerate the flowering period to only nine weeks.
Our Blueberry seeds are feminized, which means that they are specially bred to produce female plants exclusively. As this white paper from 2017 says, productivity doubles when male plants are eliminated. Because there are no males around to pollinate them, your females will produce significantly larger yields that contain more THC. As your plants enter the flowering stage, your growing area will be filled with the delicious aroma of fresh blueberries emanating from plenty of sticky, purple-toned buds. The fairly high 16% THC level will also impress you.
If you choose to grow Blueberry feminized indoors, you will need a wide space for it to spread out. Regular pruning will let you sculpt it into a bush shape in order to generate more bud sites. In addition, pruning helps to prevent powdery mildew. This fungal disease can take over an entire plant quickly and decrease the quality and quantity of your crop. Furthermore, Blueberry requires more nitrogen than other strains, and so it is important that you feed it adequately. Using a super soil as your growing medium is a good start, but you still need to augment it with a micronutrient mixture throughout your plant’s life cycle. If all goes well, you will begin to see some buds about two months from the time it germinated.
Outdoor growing, however, will bump up your yield considerably. The plant is a bit fragile at the start, but if you keep in a greenhouse first and then transplant it outside after the last frost has gone, it will definitely flourish. It needs sunny and airy conditions, although it can handle the cold easily. The ideal temperature is 65 degrees Fahrenheit (18.5 degrees Celsius), but brief spells of 45 degrees Fahrenheit (7 degrees Celsius) will not hurt your yield. Letting it mature out in nature will also give you the opportunity to use organic fertilizers like worm castings and bat guano if you wish.
As Blueberry feminized approaches harvest time, its compact forest-green leaves will be tinged with purple and red. This is due to the high concentration of anthocyanins, a flavonoid that provides color as well as antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits. The trichomes are transparent, which makes them harder to see than the milky or amber-colored glands that are present in similarly resinous strains. Nonetheless, Blueberry’s buds are just as sticky. After harvesting, make sure to properly dry and cure them to intensify the bright purple color and fruity aroma.
