I've been experimenting with smoking less often, and more mindfully lately (not just smoking before bed out of habit), smoking with a purpose. I picked up this sativa on the way home and went for an evening walk around my quiet suburban neighbourhood. The taste of this was delicious, earthy, floral, and obviously some sweet blueberry, and was quite smooth. Before I knew it I was up and walking, enjoying some beautiful tunes from Sufjan Stevens and Hope Sandoval. I was mesmerized by their beautiful voices. I ended up at a wetland in my neighbourhood where a large maple tree grows. When I feel down I often go here for some alone time and sit in the tree and sulk. Not this time however. I did a pull up on one of the branches, and then swore an oath to this mother tree that when things go wrong, I will no longer feel sorry for myself but instead take the actions I need to take to get my shit together. It was spiritual and liberating. The end of the high leaves you calm and relaxed, and a bit tired. Blueberry Blast: Great energetic strain, quite psychedelic and positive, nice relaxing end.

Blueberry Blast certainly “blasted” me, in more way than one. It was a beautiful Seattle day when my best bud and I each smoked a J on a local pier. Immediately after finishing, I noticed a “deepening” of my vision, both in a sense of distance and an enhanced appreciation of my surroundings. The bustling sounds of the city became more apparent and I felt my audio perception was enhanced. Every sound felt more prominent and detailed. The high was pure Sativa, very cerebral and mentally stimulating. We both became very talkative and adventurous, our enthusiasm for exploring the city was heightened even more. Some mild anxiety crept into my mind when exploring a crowded farmer’s market, but I am prone to anxiety regardless of whether I’m high or sober, so this should be taken with a grain of salt. It should also be mentioned that we felt some mild to moderate impairment from this strain. It was certainly very potent. It “blasted” us with mental euphoria and mental impairment alike. It should definitely be approached with caution if one is new to cannabis. Primary effects that I noticed included: -Cerebral, stimulating head high -Enhanced visual and auditory perception -Mild to moderate impairment of attention -Occasional mild dizziness -Uplifting, happy feelings Overall, this was a very enjoyable strain. A simple joint a piece uplifted us past the stratosphere and into psychedelic shores of our own mental cosmos. You can’t go wrong if you’re looking for a happy, mildly trippy high. I would definitely recommend it!
