When the breeder of the original Blueberry releases a variety
named “True Blue,” Blueberry fans are in for a delight. DJ
Short’s True Blue was carefully selected from a double
Blueberry cross. The Blueberry variety originally derives from
a marriage between a female with Thai and Oaxacan roots, and
an Afghani indica male. The strain’s characteristic lavender
tones were inherited through the mother’s genetic line.
DJ Short’s flavor connoisseurship influences his growing
preference for soil-based gardens with organic nutrients, but
his varieties adapt well to hydroponics, aquaponics or
aeroponics systems. True Blue has a light appetite for
nutrients, especially nitrogen, although these plants will be
happy with generous helpings of worm castings and bat guano.
Like her Blueberry parents, True Blue forms many branches,
especially when topped, and finishes at a medium height.
Beginning a lusty dark green, these plants develop the soft
lavenders for which they were named, as well as a
mouthwatering sweet musky odor. Some plants show
variegated (crinkled) leaves that are a benign inheritance from
the Thai family. This hybrid’s flowers have petite calyxes that
form along tight spade-shaped buds, taking on a “fox-tail”
structure.
True Blue finishes in 8-9 weeks on average indoors.
Outdoors, she ripens in late September to late October
depending on latitude. In a location near the 45 degree North
latitude, she was successfully harvested within the normal
growing season. True Blue’s finished buds have photo-worthy
color, and their aroma mellows from its musky quality to a
fruity floral sachet once cured.
The True Blue buzz is a lucid, inspiring, social high that
creeps up gradually. This is pot to share! Friends will admire
the connoisseur flavors, and the warm euphoria of True Blue’s
stone will make for a fun and congenial smoke-out.
