Bubba Kush is one of the top Kush strains in the USA, a country well-known for its love of Kush. It is 90% indica and is the result of crossing a pre '98 Bubba Kush with itself. It is smaller than many Kush strains and is suited to smaller pots that can be moved around a garden or simply placed on a balcony for maximum sun exposure.
It grows well indoors and outdoors where in the latter's case it can reach 200 cm. tall when grown directly in the ground. Indoors yields are good at 500 gr/m2 after a flowering period of 60 - 65 days. Outdoors as much as 800 gr/plant can be harvested during the middle of October in northern latitudes.
The smell and taste are quite intense and are spicy and with an oily quality as well. THC production is high and CBD low and the effect is cerebral while also being powerfully narcotic. If sleep is a problem this could well be the answer.
Strain FAQ
What enhances the herbal taste?
The terpene Linalool enhances cannabis' herbal fragrance, despite its association with floral and pungent lavender. It gives a floral touch to the herbal experience by calming and enhancing the earthy, spicy terpenes.
What distinguishes Kush strains' scent and flavour?
Kush strains are cannabis' aromatic wonders and are known for their diverse terpene profiles. Myrcene, limonene, and caryophyllene combine earthy, citrusy, and spicy notes that dance on the palate and tickle the nose.
What's special about strains that finish in mid-October?
Short-season locales benefit from strains that flower by mid-October. As winter approaches, they are already finished, avoiding the risk of frost, mould, and pest damage.
Are feminized strains known for having consistent cannabinoid levels?
Yes, consistent cannabinoid profiles are to be expected with feminised strains. These plants are genetically adjusted for qualities like THC and CBD production, so a more uniform output can be expected. This benefits those who need exact cannabinoid levels for medical or recreational use.
Are North American and Canadian breeders responsible for auto-flowering strains?
North American and Canadian breeders pioneered the use of Russian and Central Asian Cannabis ruderalis genetics in photoperiod strains. This crossbreeding has developed auto-flowering cultivars that flower depending on age rather than light exposure, a major development for shorter growing seasons.
