Blue Bosc Strain Overview (Notsodog's Sour Diesel x Hypothermia)
Effect:
Blue Bosc is a hybrid that blends the sharp cerebral energy of Notsodog's Sour Diesel with the deep, body-melting calm of Hypothermia. The result is a strain that kicks off with a fast-acting mental buzz—euphoric, uplifting, and mentally clarifying—before easing into a warm, tranquil body high. Unlike strains that push too far into sedation, Blue Bosc offers a smooth comedown that still keeps you functional. It’s an excellent choice for those seeking a boost in mood or focus during the day, with enough body relaxation to ease stress or minor discomfort without full couchlock. Perfect for daytime or early evening use, especially for those who enjoy being mentally alert while physically at ease.
Taste & Smell:
Blue Bosc brings a bold and complex terpene profile that leans heavy on diesel, sour citrus, and subtle berry. From the Sour Diesel side, expect a loud, fuel-forward aroma that punches through with earthy citrus and chemical notes. The Hypothermia influence mellows the sharper edges with sweet, frosty blueberry and floral undertones. Together, the profile is unmistakably diesel-heavy but rounded off with a chilly sweetness—like sour citrus zest layered over frozen berries and gas like a blueberry zotz candy drizzled with pear accents. The aroma is loud, persistent, and especially appealing to fans of old-school fuel strains with a modern fruity twist.
Growth:
Blue Bosc inherits the vigorous growth structure of Notsodog's Sour Diesel, known for its strong vertical growth and stretch during flowering. The Hypothermia genetics introduce dense, resin-heavy buds that may need trellising or stakes to support the weight in late flower. This strain thrives with proper pruning, topping, and good light penetration, especially to manage lower bud sites and improve overall canopy development. Resin production can be exceptional with the right environment, making it a solid choice for extractors. Growers should be prepared to manage stretch and provide structural support, but with attentive care, Blue Bosc can offer both quality and quantity.
Suited for Beginners?
Blue Bosc is best suited for intermediate to experienced growers. While it's not overly finicky, the combination of vertical stretch from the Diesel lineage and the weighty, resinous buds from Hypothermia demands attention to structural integrity and environmental control. Novice growers might find it slightly challenging, especially in smaller or less optimized spaces. That said, cultivators who can manage space, airflow, and support will be rewarded with frosty, aromatic flowers that are both potent and visually striking.
