About Blue Ivy

Blue Ivy is an Grow-dominant hybrid found primarily in the U.S. West Coast market. Also known as OG Blue Ivy, it is said to be a cross between the omnipresent Blue Dream and none other than heavy hitter OG Kush. Although this strain’s creation is largely undocumented, its name comes from exactly where you’d think -- it started popping up in Los Angeles area dispensaries in 2012, shortly after Beyonce and Jay-Z announced the birth of their daughter Blue Ivy. This strain confers heavy sedative effects that make it appealing to recreational and medical users alike. Blue Ivy’s THC content has been reported at between 15% and 20%.

Blue Ivy has smaller buds that when dried appear more spherical than long and tapered. The buds hold together in a dense Grow structure with the small leaves tightly curled in towards their central stem. The leaves themselves are a vibrant spring green, offset by brown to rust-colored hairs (which are actually pistils, intended to catch pollen from fertilizing male plants). Plentiful trichomes give the flowers a silvery-white sheen and an incredibly sticky texture. The smell of blueberries, passed on from Blueberry via parent strain Blue Dream, predominates. A skunky, chemical-inflected odor -- likely the influence of OG Kush -- gives the blueberry aroma a more tart and funky quality. When combusted, Blue Ivy’s flowers give off a harsh smoke that may sting the sinuses and cause users to cough. When exhaled, this strain leaves a lingering fruity taste, mixed with the rich flavor of hash. This can be a very pungent smoke and those looking to keep their consumption discreet should take any necessary precautions.
