Blue Skittles not only sounds delicious as a blue skittle taste is one that a number of people love. For those looking to graduate to stronger marijuana, this can be a great step in the right direction.

Blue Skittles Strain Genetics

Is Blue Skittles strain an indica or sativa?

The Blue Skittles strain has great genetics as it is an Indica-dominant hybrid of Blue Diamond and Zkittlez. For some cannabis consumers, this could be a massively heavy Indica so consumption might be better at the end of the day.

Blue Diamond is bred by BioQueen genetics with an unknown lineage. The buds of this strain are large and ready to harvest after 8 weeks of flowering. Expect this Indica to have an earthy taste.

Zkittlez is a hybrid of Grapefruit and Grape Ape which contributes to its fruity flavor. This strain has won the 2016 Emerald Cup and 2015 Cannabis Cup in San Francisco. The strain was originally bred by 3rd Gen Family and Terp Hogz originally.

The combination of these two juggernaut Indica strains results in the beautiful and pungent Blue Skittles. Be careful with this strain as the high will increase for minutes after you last exhale.

Overconsumption can lead to sleepiness so make sure you follow the less is more smoking rule.

Platinum Zkittlez can be a great strain to try if you love any strain with Zkittlez lineage. Growing Blue Zkittlez needs to be done by first finding the seeds with the best genetics.

Looking up reviews of seed banks is important especially reviews that are left on websites other than the seller’s site.

Blue Skittles Strain Yield

Blue Zkittlez strain yield differs depending on whether it is grown outdoors or indoors. Indoor grows produce less in terms of yield unless you are growing an autoflowering strain. Blue Zkittlez can be grown both outdoor and indoor.

Be aware that this is an extremely pungent strain so covering this odor can tough when grown outdoors. Planting some Jasmine around the plants that is flowering can help cover the odor but will not eliminate it.

Growers will be happy as the yield for this strain is relatively high. A grower can expect 2 to 4 ounces per square foot indoors.

Outdoors a grower can expect 4 to 6 ounces per square foot. Blue Zkittlez is not the most difficult strain to grow but shouldn’t be for a first-time grower.

Blue Skittles Strain Flowering Time

The flowering time for Blue Zkittlez is around 8 weeks on average. October is the best month for harvesting if growing outdoors much like a number of other strains.

The appearance of Blue Skittles does not disappoint as the amount of trichomes can stop a cannabis enthusiast in their tracks. There is also a blue/purple hue with orange hairs that make this strain as attractive as it is fun to smoke.

Blue Zkittlez Strain THC Percentage

Blue Zkittlez has a decent range of THC percentage between 17 and 21. There are grows that come in around 15 percent which might be better for those used to low-THC strains.

This cannabis should be reserved for the end of the day and expect to be sedated. Your limbs will be sedated and feel heavy according to some consumers. 

The CBD content of Blue Skittles strain can be a little over 1 percent which is not as high as a number of other strains. The combination of CBD and THC has been shown to complement each other.

Take the time to find a high-CBD strain to smoke with Blue Zkittlez.

Flavor and Aroma of Blue Zkittlez

Myrcene is perfect for a person looking for a terpene to relax. Limonene tastes like lemons/citrus and also helps fight stress/anxiety.

For those that love the flavor of Blue Zkittlez, trying other marijuana skittles strains can be wise. The flavor of First 48 and Purple Cheddar are similar.
