Energizing or sleepy?
Mostly sleepy, by most accounts: Leafly places Blue Cheese on the calming side of its scale and its users' top effect is sleepy, and Barney's Farm describes its version as sleepy and deeply relaxing.1,4
A minority of descriptions lean the other way: Weedmaps says consumers report a euphoric yet level-headed experience, Royal Queen Seeds calls its version clear, and the Zamnesia listing of Big Buddha’s version describes an active, happy high.3,5,7 Big Buddha also entered it in the Sativa Cup at the 2006 High Times Cannabis Cup.8 Reports may differ partly because several breeders sell different Cheese × Blueberry crosses under the name (see genetics).4,5,6
Why two batches can feel different
Potency alone varies: one in ten lab tests came in under 20.36% THC and one in ten above 27.64%.9 In our lab data, Maryland's 269 tests had a median of 26.03% THC and Michigan's 10 tests (a small sample) had a median of 14.21%.9 And Barney's Farm, Royal Queen Seeds, Dinafem and Big Buddha each sell their own Cheese × Blueberry cross, with THC claims from 10–14% to 26%.4,5,6,7
