Blue Vortex

Don’t worry. Be happy. That’s the message Revolution Health Center in San Jose sends with Blue Vortex, a stronger, sativa variant of Blue Dream that decreases anxiety while adding energy. It’s a cross of mainstream favorite Blue Dream—which is name-checked by Justin Timberlake on The 20/20 Experience—and Vortex, a 2010 Cup-winner from TGA Subcool seeds. Blue Dream is Blueberry and Haze, while Vortex combines Apollo 13 and Space Queen. Our samples were very Blue Dream-like: light green with long orange pistils. The blue spheres smelled really grassy and light—not berry or funky—and very much like Haze. The trichome-dusted, soft, dry medium density nugs were well-cured. Grinding released a hint of berry and lemon. The smoke was light, Haze-tasting and potent without an after-taste. Patients are using cannabis sativas for depression and anxiety.
