Homegrown Fantaseeds
Australian Blue crosses Homegrown Fantaseed’s prizewinning
strain, Blue Haze, with an Australian sativa given to them in
1999 by some friends from down under. Australia is well known
as one of the great global spots for sativas. Blue’s 90% sativa
mother, the “Duck” or “Boesi” strain, contributes a classic
sativa high and the clean musk of a lemon grove to this hybrid.
The haze influence combined with the dominant sativa make
Australian Blue a leggy plant that loves to branch and get tall.
She forms branches from the bottom and grows into a slender
Christmas-tree shape.You don’t have to be in Australia to get
good results with Australian Blue, but you do need to be in a
locale where the weather supports an 11-week flowering cycle
and the thermometer stays above 17° Celsius (62° Fahrenheit).
In locations that don’t meet these criteria, Australian Blue can
be grown indoors. Homegrown Fantaseeds prefers gardening
this variety in soil. Indoors, the average expected yield is ¾
ounce (20-25 grams) per plant, a fairly typical sativa yield. The
buzz from a haze-sativa is lucid and uplifting, sometimes
bordering on the psychedelic.When harvested too early, it can
be a little speedy, but at the proper maturation, Australian Blue
delivers the type of high sativa fans love—thoughtful and
euphoric, relaxed yet awake and ready to enjoy what the day
sends you.
