Where Lucid Blue Comes From

Sources disagree on one parent. Leafly lists Blue Dream crossed with Grateful Breath and credits Gage Green as the breeder. AllBud lists Amnesia Haze crossed with Blue Dream and gives no breeder. We went with Leafly’s version because it names a source, but the conflict is worth noting.

Both agree that Blue Dream is one parent and that the result leans sativa, about 80% sativa on AllBud. Leafly describes Lucid Blue as a Blue Dream-like strain with a stronger effect and Haze-type traits.

Leafly lists energetic, creative and focused as the top effects, with euphoria, uplift and relaxation also reported. AllBud lists euphoria, tingly and uplifting.

Leafly says the strain is designed for people with a high tolerance, and warns that the rush may cause anxiety in new consumers. Expect strong munchies. Like many Haze-leaning strains, it suits daytime creative work better than winding down.

Lucid Blue Terpenes, Aroma and Flavor

Leafly lists pepper, blueberry and diesel flavors, with reviewers also noting hashish and lemon. AllBud lists blueberry, fruity, herbal, spicy and sweet flavors and berry, blueberry, earthy, fruity and spicy aromas.

Caryophyllene is the most abundant terpene on Leafly, followed by pinene and humulene. That points to a peppery, piney, slightly hoppy profile beneath the blueberry sweetness.

  • Beta-caryophyllene: peppery and spicy, also found in black pepper and cloves
  • Pinene: fresh pine, also found in pine needles and rosemary
  • Humulene: woody and hoppy, also found in hops and basil
