This sativa dominant strain of marijuana is a hybrid. It was first developed and grown in California. It’s one of the more popular strains on the west coast. Although it’s dominant in sativa, Haze is one of the parent strains, which brings about total body relaxation. It does have a mild effect on the mind, bringing on an energetic boost in thinking and creativity. It has a wonderful balance of calm and focus. This is a perfect strain for people who’ve had a busy and mind-boggling day and need to relax and re-center in the evening.

The Blueberry indica parent plant, along with the sativa Haze parent strain, offers a quick response to symptoms, but it does not cause drowsiness, making it a good fit for a daytime medicine as well. It’s best suited for patients looking for pain relief, help with depression, nausea and racing thoughts. It is also recommended for people who suffer from frequent headaches and fatigue. The main benefits of Blue Dream are happiness, relaxation, euphoria, feeling uplifted and increased creativity.

Patients should be aware that this strain can cause dry mouth and eyes.

Blue Dream can be purchased at Earth’s Healing Dispensary, conveniently located at 2075 E. Benson Hwy. and 78 W. River Rd., in Tucson. Connect at EarthsHealing.org. See ad, page 35.
