All Blue by Avalanche Genetics
Blueberry (presumed)
All Blue is a hybrid cultivar developed by Avalanche Genetics, known for its emphasis on visual appeal and balanced effects. This strain is recognized for its berry-forward aromatics and the potential to develop striking blue and purple coloration, particularly under cooler environmental conditions.
Appearance
All Blue produces dense, medium-sized conical flowers characterized by high calyx-to-leaf ratios and abundant trichome coverage. Under optimal conditions, the bracts exhibit gradients ranging from forest green to deep blue and violet hues, especially as harvest approaches. Pistils mature into rich orange or copper tones, creating a striking contrast against the blue-tinted sugar leaves. The buds are typically 3-6 cm in length, compact, and weighty, with a frosted, sticky appearance due to dense trichome heads.
Aroma & Flavor
The primary aroma of All Blue is a sweet blueberry scent, often compared to jam or compote. Underlying notes of vanilla cream, light florals, and a subtle earthiness ground the bouquet. Upon grinding, brighter citrus notes become more apparent. Flavors often follow the aroma, presenting as sweet berry with hints of citrus, floral, and sometimes a peppery or herbal finish.
Effects
All Blue is described as a hybrid with a consumer-friendly balance, offering both steady body relaxation and a clear-headed uplift. While specific effects can vary, its lineage suggests a profile that is generally not overpowering, making it suitable for a broad range of users. The indica component may contribute to relaxation, while the sativa influence can provide a gentle cerebral lift.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
While specific cannabinoid percentages vary, All Blue typically falls within a 15-25% THC range, with CBD levels below 1%. The terpene profile is often led by Myrcene, contributing a musky-sweet backdrop. Other commonly reported terpenes include Caryophyllene, which adds a peppery warmth, Limonene for citrus notes, and Linalool, which contributes floral and citrus shimmer. These compounds contribute to the strain's distinct aroma and flavor characteristics.
Growing
All Blue typically exhibits an indica-leaning structure with compact internodes and broad leaves, making it manageable in size, often not exceeding 100-130 cm indoors. It shows adaptability to cooler finishing temperatures, which are crucial for enhancing its characteristic blue and purple coloration. Growers often report rapid rooting, tolerance to moderate feeding, and dense calyx development. The plant is considered relatively predictable and stable for cultivation.
Origins & Lineage
All Blue is a hybrid developed by Avalanche Genetics. While its exact parentage is not publicly disclosed, it is understood to belong to the 'blue' family of cannabis strains, suggesting a strong influence from Blueberry genetics. Classic Blueberry lines trace back to Afghani indica and Thai sativa landraces. This heritage is believed to contribute to All Blue's berry-forward aromatics, visual characteristics, and balanced indica/sativa effects.
