Breeder's Description - 'Bubble Gum'
|
Bubble Gum is a medium tall, usually not too branchy (sometimes stretchy) plant, producing compact, crystal covered buds. Originally the Bubble Gum was developed by growers in Indiana, USA. From there the genetics moved to New England and eventually Holland. lt took many generations to finally produce this stable Bubble Gum, with the characteristic, sweet smell (truly resembling a typical bubble gum taste) and euphoric high; the original trademarks of this famous strain. The only inbred strain (no F1 hybrid) in the Serious menu. of 1994, a in 1995 and again a in 1999, giving Bubble Gum a tot ...continued

Ok if u dont like sweet variaties then dont get this.
This has got to be the sweetest bud i've grown.
Out of my nicely packaged 15 seeds i put two in,one turned out to be female which is what this report is based on.
Once the plant had established itself and grown for roughly 4 weeks to a height of 15inc i put it in to flower(not before taking clones,which i found to root quite easily).
Once flowering had been triggered she stretched to 3 times her vegg size.The buds form in dense clusters that stink of the sweetest candy u could imagine,covered in sticky resin.As it matures the hairs turn brick red,the last two weeks this plant really packed some weight on.
The smoke is unreal.Too strong for some(of my pansy mates anyway).3 of my mates that tried this did'nt like it-it gave them a whitey!
The buzz lasts along time and is very euphoric,hits u after half a joint,the taste is well very sweet and does remind u of bubblegum or candy.Once it has kicked in i find it very creative and good for chillin with,but be warned this is very strong smoke.

I have attempted many hydro grows but this girl took to water like a fish and exceeded all my expectations (Now I know why BOG calls himself the Bubblegum Guru). At first site these girls can be quite breath taking and the quality of the final product is one to be reckoned with. This strain is without a doubt one that will be kept as a mother I expect many generations from her along with many years of euphoric happiness.
My seeds where purchase through www.goldenseeds.co.uk they where real professionals I had one pack delayed and they sent me a pack of Jack frost as an apology (though it was only a day later than what they expected 7 days in total) I don’t know what this strain is but my buddy offered me every bean he had for them, so they must be worth something I think I will spout a few and see what they can do. I will deal with this company again they seem to have a fair selection with some home breeders of their own. All in all I would rate my experience with www.goldenseeds.co.uk at an 8 and the beans from Serious Seeds a 9 but that is just me. My germination rate was almost 100% after 3 days I had little new additions to my Kab family.
The over all final tallies of dried smoke was close to 4.5 Oz, my mother plant has gotten to a height of 5ft and I think I will keep her there just keep topping her. All in all with proper caring, grooming and nutrients you will find yourself with that one plant that can cover that hole you have in you Kab, I know I did.
The night I took my cured buds out was the night my first child was born (beautiful baby boy) need less to say it was not cigars we where passing out. I would have to say after watching all my friends smoke and the happiness I felt this from this joyous day, girl has earned herself her rightful place and will never have to challenge for her seat.

Well what can I say about this plant that's not been said already. It's a very hardy that plant takes nutes good and high temps as well!
I started 6 seeds from a pack of 15 but non of them showed face so I planted another six luckily they all came up so that was a 50% germ rate .
I had 50/50 fem to male ratio. Gave one to a friend so this report is based on the two best ladies!
Firstly there is my bushy lady who I tied down to see how bushy I could get her and as you can see in the 3rd pic she's a bushy lady!!
The other one was not tied down and she grew one main cola with many lower tops below!
These ladies where very impresive for my first full grow. I would advise anyone to grow some Bubble Gum for a very rewarding smoke.

I germed four out of four and got 3 females.
veged for a month then put into flower, grows twice to 3 times the size in flower so be warned.
Buds are rock solid and grow very dense indeed, big thick main cola's on pheno 1, smoke gets you stoned, but not devastating.
Pheno 2 is the lesser yielding but a somewhat (not over the top) sweet taste after a good cure.
I guess i really love my potent strains, which this one just doesnt rate. If kept in flowering for 75 days maybe the taste would have been better, so it was most likely my fault as i only let them go to 65 days.
Grown in drip feed reticultaing hydro system, under a 600watt Lucagrow, I yielded about 3.5 ounces each off the pheno 1 and about 2.5 from pheno 2
smell on these could be a problem if you have many plants, under a 600 watter is no thing for me anyway.
