HSO Blue Dream Replacement?

Any suggestions on some decent replacement strains for old school HSO Blue Dream? I use to grow this 7-8 years ago and it was straight fire. Absolutely covered in trics, smell/taste was delicious, fairly dense nugs, great yields, and amazing bag appeal. It never failed to impress my circle of friends.

However I ordered some seeds of this again recently and it was straight fuckin garbage. And I mean that literally. Nothing even remotely close to what it use to be. Not sure if HSO got new parents now or something but yeah, straight trash. I've read many older threads regarding this strain and there always seems to be a pretty even split of people who both love this strain and people who hate it. Now I see why.

I know Blue Dream is played out now and not many people grow it anymore but I miss it tbh. Any suggestions out there on something with similar traits? Doesn't necessarily have to have "blue" in it. Also I live in Canada so will likely need something in seed form.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

I'm ordering Dr Greenthumb's Blue Dream next, I've grown 6 of his strains so far and the results have been good.

He's in Canada too, Ottawa region.

I actually have a few black dogs in my garden right now that i'll be chopping down soon. Looks and smells amazing but totally lacking in yield and bud size big time.

Here's a quick snap of my Black Dog, 7 and a half weeks in. Looks and smells like quality smoke but the small buds and yields are disappointing. If I could get something like this but with better yields I'd be a happy camper.

a really good haze/indica cross that comes to mind is Ace Seeds Haze X Kali China. All of their Kali China crosses are good, but since we're talking about Blue Dream, a haze cross seemed appropriate. I would 100% grow this strain over anything that calls itself "blue dream" nowadays.

Sound great with the purple Haze from Oldtimer1, and they just released C5 Haze x Kali China.

DJ Short did a remake of Blue Dream using the same 2 lines as parents. It's called Azure Haze. I ran a single f2 seed of this years ago and got a killer plant that smelled like blueberry muffins. I'd look there.

Hazeman has that crossed to the Blue Dream for a fraction of what you would pay for Azure Haze at Djs shorts. I had forgot about that but I remember now seeing it on his list. @infinitygenetics on IG

Wonder which one is better? Might be time to find out first hand. Maybe I should order several "Blue Dreams" from different breeders and see what happens. Might cost a few dollars but probably totally worth it in the end I bet.

Did the seeds come in the original breeder wooden packaging with the glass tube glued inside. As far as I know alot of hso seeds are very hard to get now, alot of places are out of stock. Hso got raided and shut down a little while back so alot of people brought what they could. For abit now there stuff has been rare and quite hard to get.

Dj's johny blaze if you can find it in stock is some serious stuff. It longer flowering and more sativa tho as it uses the old original pure f1 nevils haze put to a excellent blueberry clone.
