With a name as mysterious and prestigious as Blue God, this strain has a lot on its shoulders and its soothing effects do their best to back it up. As a pure indica you might think you already know what to expect with this bud but there’s more to it than some simple sleep-inducing puffs. Here is the lowdown behind this award-winning nug.
What is Blue God Strain?
Starting off, even its origins are not usually heard of in the USA: Jordan of the Islands is the Canadian cannabis company that produced this one-of-a-kind flower. As a Cannabis Culture Toker's Bowl winner, there must be reasons for such an accolade. This is not a surprise however as both its parents are cannabis cup winners in Blueberry and God Bud. Blue God, having garnered the triumph in 2002 - placing 4th, is not the most hyped up strain but is available in medical marijuana dispensaries in Arizona, British Columbia, California, Colorado, and Oregon. With THC levels averaging in the 20%, it is just enough to cap your night on a sweet note.
