Feminized strain created from crossing Gorilla Glue #4 and a Black Domina x Blueberry hybrid that we have been working on for many years. We have this cross because of the stability and variety of flavors it gives to its offspring. The branched flowers are clustered close to the branches, but do not form large central flowers. This is compensated by the high density of these flowers, which may need support at the end of the flowering period.
In terms of smell, aromas that we would describe as "sweet chemist" dominate, although the essence of Gorilla Glue is retained by the fruity aromas of the father used. Its effects are physically strong and very relaxing, making this strain a suitable hybrid for smokers looking for a medicinal strain.
Appearance and growth patterns
Blue Monkey features a unique growth pattern characterized by the branched flowers that cluster close to the branches. Unlike other varieties, it does not produce large central flowers, but compensates for this with a high density of smaller flowers. These dense flowers may require support due to their weight. This distinctive growth pattern, combined with its beautiful variety of colors, makes Blue Monkey a distinctive sight in any growing configuration.
Aroma and taste profile
In terms of aroma and taste, Blue Monkey stands out from other varieties. It carries a predominant "sweet chemist" aroma that beautifully blends the earthy essence of Gorilla Glue #4 with the fruity undertones introduced by its parent Blueberry x Black Domina. The result is an enticing bouquet of scents that can ignite the senses and take the cannabis experience to a whole new level.
Effects and therapeutic benefits Blue Monkey is known for its potent relaxing effects. An indica-dominant hybrid, it offers a powerful body high that can help relieve the tension and stress of a long day. This deep relaxation makes Blue Monkey a favorite among medical cannabis users seeking relief from conditions such as chronic pain, insomnia and anxiety.
In addition to its relaxing properties, the strain can provide subtle cerebral stimulation, a trait it inherits from its Sativa lineage. This balanced mix of effects ensures a comprehensive therapeutic experience that can meet a wide range of needs and preferences.
Growing information
Blue Monkey has a flowering period of approximately 9 weeks, with outdoor harvest typically occurring in October. It is a medium difficulty strain that requires growers to provide support for the densely packed flowers as they mature.
Despite the lack of large central flowers, Blue Monkey is a decent producer, offering 400 - 450 grams per square meter. Its propensity for high resin production and compact growth pattern make it a favorable choice for growers seeking quality over quantity.
Summary
Blue Monkey is a remarkable cannabis strain that manages to capture the best characteristics of its parent strains, Gorilla Glue #4 and the Black Domina x Blueberry hybrid. Its unique growth pattern, distinctive "sweet chemist" aroma and potent relaxing effects make it a standout strain in the vast cannabis landscape.
Whether you are a grower looking for a stable, high-yielding strain or a consumer seeking a unique sensory experience with potential therapeutic benefits, Blue Monkey is a strain worth considering. An indica-dominant hybrid, it offers a powerful body high that can provide a much-needed break from the stresses of daily life, making it a preferred choice for many medical cannabis patients.
