Appearance

Double Dream CBD typically produces medium to large, spear-shaped colas with moderate density. The buds are often coated in abundant, glassy trichomes, giving them a frosted appearance. Pistils mature to a copper-orange, contrasting with lime-to-forest green calyxes. Sugar leaves may display faint lavender hues in cooler temperatures, particularly from its Blueberry heritage.

Aroma & Flavor

The aroma is characterized by a layered bouquet of sweet blueberry and candied citrus peel, complemented by lighter floral notes and a hint of sandalwood. Upon grinding, berry jam and subtle peppery notes emerge. The flavor profile mirrors the aroma, opening with ripe blueberry and citrus, followed by creamy, herbal, and floral undertones.

Effects

This strain is noted for its cerebral effects, providing a smooth uplift that is generally not overstimulating. The balanced cannabinoid profile helps to temper the psychoactive intensity, making it a dependable choice for those seeking mood enhancement without significant intoxication.

Terpenes & Cannabinoids

While specific percentages vary, Double Dream CBD often exhibits terpene profiles rich in myrcene, limonene, pinene, and caryophyllene, with contributions from linalool and ocimene. Cannabinoid content typically features THC between 6-10% and CBD below 1%, though CBD-dominant phenotypes exist. This combination contributes to its balanced effects and distinct aroma.

Growing

Double Dream CBD exhibits hybrid vigor with a strong apical drive and long lateral branches suitable for training. It requires a moderate flowering time and can produce competitive yields of sizable, shapely colas. The plant architecture is generally manageable, with flexible stems and medium-long internodes.

Origins & Lineage

Double Dream CBD is a derivative of the original Double Dream, which itself is a sativa-leaning cross of Blue Dream and Dream Star. Breeders have developed CBD-forward versions by crossing Double Dream with CBD-rich strains or selecting for higher CBDA expression, aiming to retain the original's desirable traits while reducing THC potency.
