Blue Dream is a favorite among cultivators of the flower due to its large yield and low maintenance nature. It can flourish indoors or outdoors and rival the height of Lebron James. This also means it is perfect for amateur growers of the seedling, who are getting their fingers green for the first time. A good quality yield will show vibrant orange trichomes upon its bright green color, with medium to large buds.

Flavour/Smell

The soft taste allows you to indulge in the high, without a harsh undertone to its flavor.
