Alpha Blue

Alpha Blue (also called Alpha Dream or Dream Diesel) is a cross of Blue Dream and NYC Diesel, according to sources online, though some say it’s Sour Diesel instead of NYC Diesel. Regardless of genetics most consumers agree it tastes like fuel and berries with a hint of sweet skunk. Alpha Blue’s strong aroma of sweet berries masks its more bitter flavor. According to Pacific Seed Bank, the cultivar averages around 15-20% THC with 3-10% CBD.

Alpha Blue won second place for Best Sativa at the High Times Medical Cup in both Denver and in San Francisco in 2011.

Alpha Blue is an easy-to-grow cultivar with characteristics typical of Sativa strains, according to the seed bank. It grows tall in any environment and flowers in about eight weeks, resistant to most pests. The cultivar has dense, spade-shaped buds with bright green leaves, red and orange pistils, and a dusting of trichomes. It produces large yields, according to Pacific Seed Bank.
