Information on Blue Hippo

The result of a cross between Spanish Blue Elefant and Vanilla Berry Pie, this feminised strain offers dense, resinous flowers with purple hues that evoke the blue hippopotamus that gives it its name.

An irresistible choice for discerning growers looking for yield, resilience and terpene sophistication.
Blue Hippo Seeds: Gourmet genetics with a Californian pedigree
Blue Hippo is born from the cross between Spanish Blue Elefant (Blue Dream × Afghan Kush 80's Heirloom × Sour Berry) and Vanilla Berry Pie [(Magnum Opus × Royal Kush F11) × (Cherry Pie Kush × Sunset Sherbet)].
This masterful combination brings together the best of the Californian lineage: potency, creamy berry flavour, earthy-incense background and an exotic bouquet that evolves puff after puff.
Spanish Blue Elephant brings citrus notes and a bright mental effect thanks to Blue Dream, as well as good structure. Vanilla Berry Pie, on the other hand, incorporates a dense, almost gourmand organoleptic profile, with hints of cream, toasted almond and berries.
The result: an elite genetics, balanced 50% indica / 50% sativa, ideal for those who value complex nuances and a rounded effect on body and mind.
High yielding, fast flowering crop
Blue Hippo has been designed to offer maximum yield without sacrificing quality. Indoors it completes flowering in just 55 days, an exceptional figure for such complex genetics. During cultivation it develops a robust structure, with short internodes and good branching, ideal for applying techniques such as SCROG, main-lining or lollipopping.
In indoor crops it can reach 700 g/m², while outdoors it can easily exceed 2200 g per plant, provided it receives sufficient light and care. Its indica heritage provides remarkable resistance to moisture and common pests, making it an excellent choice for variable climates.
Reliable genetics for both experienced growers and growers looking for bumper harvests without the hassle.
In addition, its flower density and trichome thickness make it ideal for both solvent-free and BHO extractions, offering high yields while maintaining terpene.
Aromatic profile and effect of the Blue Hippo buds
The aroma of Blue Hippo is a true symphony of contrasts: creamy berries, lemon, hints of incense and an earthy, resinous base reminiscent of classic hashish.
On the inhale, the sensation is sweet, fruity and smooth, with hints of toasted almond and a slight fizzy aftertaste. In the mouth it expands with a silky texture that lingers over time and will delight the most experienced palates.
In terms of effects, it offers a perfectly balanced hybrid experience. It starts with a creative and euphoric cerebral high, ideal for socialising, working or enjoying art, and leads to a progressive physical relaxation that does not numb, but envelops the body with wellbeing.
With THC levels of around 26%, it is a potent but manageable strain, perfect for those seeking a pleasant, clear-headed and functional high.
