Cheese has one of the most recognizable aromas in cannabis, and it took a top-tier Blueberry to stand toe-to-toe with it. Blue Cheese from Royal Queen Seeds brings the two together in a feminized photoperiod hybrid that smells like a gourmet dessert board: sweet berries on one side, funky aged cheese on the other.
Royal Queen Seeds crossed Original Cheese with Oregon Blueberry Blend, then backcrossed the offspring to Cheese to lock in stability and sharpen both flavor and effect. The result is a 60% indica / 40% sativa plant with THC levels up to 19% and a medium CBD level.
Indoors she grows 3 to 5 feet (90–150 cm) and finishes in 55–60 days (about 8 to 8.5 weeks), yielding 18 to 19 oz/m² (510–540 g/m²). Outdoors she can reach 5 to 7 feet (150–215 cm) and produce 18 to 19 oz/plant (510–540 g/plant), ready in late September.
Flavor and Effects: Sweet Berry Meets Dank Cheese
A few weeks into bloom, Blue Cheese starts releasing a sweet yet dank cheese aroma that only gets stronger as the plants mature. Once cured, the flavor balances the earthy, musky funk of Cheese with the candy-like, fruity sweetness of Blueberry. It’s a contrasting pairing that somehow works perfectly, like blueberry jam spread on a sharp, aged cheddar.
The effect follows the same balanced path. A comfortable physical relaxation settles into the body and invites you to slow down, while the mind stays reasonably clear rather than foggy. Royal Queen Seeds sums it up as clear, physically relaxing, and stoned.
That makes Blue Cheese a great companion for relaxed evenings, a good meal, or a laid-back weekend afternoon with friends.
Growing Blue Cheese: Ideal for SOG and Hydro
Blue Cheese performs extremely well in a sea of green setup and adapts easily to both hydroponic systems and soil. Her buds are very dense and, when grown well, become coated in a thick layer of trichomes that sparkle under the light.
She does have a slightly higher leaf-to-flower ratio than average, so trimming takes a little more time. That extra effort pays off in the final product. Indoors, keep humidity under control in late bloom to protect those dense buds. Outdoors, her preference for short summers suits cooler climates with a late September harvest.
