Blue Lobster Strain: The Blueberry Hybrid From Maine

By · Published · Updated

Blue Lobster Strain: Effects, Taste and Genetics
A note from Steven De Guzman

Blue Lobster won Gassiest and the terps prize at the 2023 East Coast Zalympix. A Northeast Leaf review likened it to blueberries and grapes soaked in cran-apple juice with lime zest, so cold cran-apple juice with a squeeze of lime makes a fitting match.

What is Blue Lobster?

Blue Lobster is a hybrid cross of Apples and Bananas and Eye Candy. Leafly credits Cipher Genetics with breeding the original cross and Maine Trees with hunting, naming and popularizing it, opening its description with a nod to Maine's lobster. Weedmaps credits the breeding to Chris Lynch, known for his work with Compound Genetics and Cipher Genetics. A few databases list Blueberry x OG Kush as the parents instead, but Weedmaps says those listings conflict with the established pairing.

Leafly and Weedmaps both report that Blue Lobster won Gassiest and Best Terps at the 2023 East Coast Zalympix and placed second overall. Leafly also made it a nominee for Strain of the Year 2025. Leafly and Weedmaps class it as a hybrid, while AllBud calls it slightly indica-dominant, at 60% indica.

Look, smell and taste

Leafly describes deep green buds tinged with dark periwinkle under heavy frost. Weedmaps calls them mint green with deep purple accents, and AllBud describes dense, long, grape-shaped buds with thin orange hairs.

Blueberry candy and grape lead the aroma, according to Leafly, with plum, apple and some citrus behind them. Weedmaps adds tart fruit and a lingering fuel note, and AllBud picks out lemon and Granny Smith apple. Leafly's lab data lists limonene as the main terpene, ahead of myrcene and caryophyllene; our limonene explainer covers that citrus terpene.

Effects people report

Leafly reviewers most often report feeling relaxed, euphoric and talkative, and Leafly rates the strain as mostly calming. Leafly's Strain of the Year nominee write-up calls it buzzy and talkative at first, fading later into a calm, relaxed haze. Weedmaps says fans describe an upbeat, euphoric headspace with settling physical relaxation; some find it sociable, others report a quieter finish. AllBud says the high comes on quickly.

The negatives Leafly reviewers mention most are dry mouth, dry eyes and dizziness. Leafly also tells people with a low tolerance to tread carefully. Start with a small amount, and do not drive for at least 6 hours after use, as Canada's lower-risk cannabis use guidelines advise.

How strong is Blue Lobster?

Every source puts it high. Leafly lists 27% THC and says most cuts test above 25%, AllBud lists 26% to 30%, and Weedmaps gives 25% to 32%. Numbers change from batch to batch, so check the label; our guide to how much THC percentage matters explains what the number does and does not tell you.

Similar strains

Weedmaps lists Blue Zushi, Blue Cookies and Lemon Cherry Gelato among strains similar to Blue Lobster, along with Sticky Buns, Gastro Pop and Biscotti. Leafly lists Blue Zangria and Blueberry Lobster as its offspring.
