Blueberry Phenotype
The Blueberry phenotype family encompasses cannabis cultivars expressing blue, purple, or violet pigmentation in flowers, leaves, and sometimes stems. This coloration results from anthocyanin accumulation, typically triggered by cooler temperatures during flowering and influenced by underlying genetics. Blueberry lineages often trace to D.J. Short's original Blueberry (1970s–1980s), which crossed Afghani, Thai, and Purple Thai genetics. Breeders working in this category have developed numerous interpretations—from subtle lavender hues to deep indigo expressions. The phenotype remains popular in breeding programs for its distinctive visual characteristics and the genetic stability some lines demonstrate across generations.

Breeders select Blueberry phenotypes to stabilize color expression in new crosses and to explore how anthocyanin genes interact with environmental and genetic variables. This family serves as a reference point for studying pigment inheritance patterns and for creating visually distinct market offerings.
