A hundred times more poisonous than cyanide, blowfish carry a paralyzing agent called tetrodotoxin in their organs and skin.
While its flesh is considered a delicacy in some countries like Korea, China, and most especially Japan, one improperly prepared slice of fugu sashimi can be lethal to consumers.
Information about Blowfish marijuana strain:
Named after the fish, it does not mean that the cannabis strain is lethal for human consumption. Instead, the plant has earned the moniker because they both share the same dominant qualities. Very true to its name, it delivers a remarkably potent sedative-like effect to the body and phenomenal head high not found on most hybrids. Developing Blowfish took a long time. Bred by Dutch Flowers, the idea was to improve on the two glaring weaknesses of G13 – yield and taste.
To do that, they used a male Oregon Funk. The resulting hybrid, while it was indeed better in that its yield increased, was lacking in potency. So, the next thing they did was to use Blue Dot to pollinate G13. Like the first one, the resulting hybrid bestowed the genetics of G13 with improved flavors while retaining its potency. However, it did not improve the yield.
Next, Dutch Flowers decided to cross the two descendants of G13 from Oregon Funk and Blue Dot.
It worked like a charm because the resulting hybrid this time around fulfilled the goals of the breeder.
Blowfish, in essence, is G13 reborn. With the insanely powerful mind-warping effects of G13 and pleasant smell of Blue Dot all rolled into one strain, what could go wrong?
As for the growers, the new hybrid now boasts of the traits that made Oregon Funk a voracious producer.
