Appearance & Aroma
Berry Bomb is characterized by small to medium-sized nugs that stick together in pebbly, dense bunches. Their bases are broad, and the flowers narrow down into a spade-like form. The tightly-curled leaves are a soft shade of green and threaded with orange to rust-coloured pistils. Many Berry Bomb phenotypes also display softened hues of blue and purple in their leaves; these dramatic hues come about when pigments called anthocyanins are agitated by cooler than average temperatures throughout the growing process. A layer of transparent white trichomes gives the colourful buds a dewy surface and a sticky texture.
The impact of the parent strain Blueberry on Berry Bomb’s fragrance is clear, as the distinct aroma of blueberries exudes from the cured flowers. Some woodsy notes of pine and cedar ground out this fruity character and keep it from scenting overly sweet. Splitting open the flowers may yield some peppery odours as well. When lit, Berry Bomb provides a smoke that is smooth yet thick and lung-expanding. This smoke offers a sweet and tart blueberry tang upon exhale. Notably, this strain’s blueberry taste and smell are entirely incidental to the blue colouring of its leaves — this is because, while pigmentations define the plant’s hues, its flavour profile is formulated by separate chemical compounds known as terpenes.
Ellie Berube –
These are great thus far. I’ve only recently started using these, so I haven’t noticed any major differences. However, the owner is lovely, and the capsules come with a cute little tracker/notebook!
