Blue Dream is a cross of Blueberry and Haze and was bred to provide the body high of an indica and the cerebral sativa effects. Blue Dream is highly effective for pain management without the sedative effects of a pure indica. Effects are long lasting and she has a pleasant fruity taste.

Summary:
* I first medicated with Blue Dream years ago (I believe 2008-9) and have come across a few batches my during my initial years as a Medical Marijuana patient. But over the past two years of so, I've just strayed away from this strain probably due to its popularity as this has become a very popular strain for California growers. In California, Blue Dream and Blue Dream crosses are everywhere!
The marijuana nuggets I received were really nice and large which is typical of this strain. I love how I can squeeze a marijuana nugget and get that Charmin like bounce back. I was able to break off a piece of a marijuana nugget really easy without the whole nugget itself falling apart; very tight nuggets. Of the two large marijuana nuggets in hand, the second nugget I medicated with was very "sticky" as compared the first one I smoked off of. Residue and a slight scent was left on my fingers that I detect hours later.
This batch of Blue Dream had a nice scent that is not overpowering in the container nor does not linger with a "stench," but not the case with exhaled smoke; that did leave a STRONG "stench" in the area that took a few hours to dissipate. The scent left behind by exhaled smoke was a fruity funk; very pleasing to me, but NOT for the rest of my family. Thus, most smoking sessions were done out in the backyard.
On my first bowl, I was hit with an immediate sense of awareness. I "felt" a noticeable cerebral tingle that got me up and going. That "tingle" increased in intensity to the point where I could not sit still. I felt periods of a headband style kind of cerebral pressure. I had no issues working or playing while medicated with this batch of Blue Dream; although this strain did want me to be outdoors. Unfortunately, I was stuck many times indoors working. I felt somewhat "relaxed" on the come down.
Overall, the batch of Blue Dream is a nice day time strain and even for the evening if a pick up is needed to get you up and going. Can't forget about the focus this batch provided me, as for my "real job" that pays the bills, I did lots of work in timely fashion (getting stuff complete days before my deadlines).
I gotta say, no wonder Blue Dream is such a big hit in California. This batch I came across was an excellent Blue Dream grow. Seems to me California growers have "perfected" this strain. A real solid Sativa if you come across a good grow such as this!
The aroma of Blue dream is always fresh and amazing, it has a great Sativa high that gives you a positive vibe while taking away minor pains and aches. The light green bugs and orange hairs are always amazing looking when I get a good batch of Blue Dream as well as the trichomes that usually cover the buds heavily. This is a great energetic, happy type buzz that still has some great medicinal properties.
