GreenHouse Seeds Bubba Kush??

OG is from '91.

Bubba Kush started in '92 (from some random amazing bagseed that was deemed "Kush" - due to its bud structure). In '94, he received some Northern Lights from California. After careful selection, he found his keeper pheno (which was named "Bubba"). Somewhere around '96, in Los Angeles, his "Kush" hermaphrodited. When it did, it pollinated the "Bubba" (Northern Lights) strain, and hence, created Bubba Kush.

So as to the genetics, they are Northern Lights x Kush. GreenHouseSeedCompany does not follow the original genetics, instead, theirs is:

("Bubblegum" : Big Skunk x NL#5) x Kush

People bred Kush's into Landrace strains for commercial purposes.. not to make them better. I have smoked the original Acapulco Gold. If someone had contaminated it by breeding Kush into it, I can assure you, it would have been worse. Landrace sativas are amazing.. there is no need to "make them better".

Also, there is no Kush in OG Kush. It was a phenotype of Chemdawg '91 that was Selfed. If my memory serves correct, Swerve brought it to Tahoe around '96.

I will say this pre 98 bubba is way better than most bubba ....

By Bubba, are you talking about "Bubba" or "Bubba Kush"? The pure "Bubba" has been extinct for a while.

nice rebudle....
Your info sounds good .... but ive heard may stories and its mostly all hearsay ...
I thought that a member from the farm... caloua kid or texas kid.... cant realy remember the name ...
Had a great timeline that shed some light....
But even swerve thought it might be just a guess also ....
He believe the affy was the secret ingrediant in most bubba and og cases..
And thats why he uses it out in his crosses....

i have my own ideas .... and have talked to many pre 98 growers about the issue...
i wont get into the whole og debate... cause it wil never end...
But my club ...clone dispensiary only... has member growers that hold cuts of affy ... from 20 years back that are almost the same as the most ogs now ....

If youve had experience with true cuts of ogs over 20 years old.... i sill think about 18 ...lol
You willl notice a very kushness... and most people in la...sfv area will tell u the og out now is not that much different from the kush back then.....
Of course you will have too of been an avid smoker of kush for a long time in the socal black market .... and have grown out real deal chem to come to this conclusinon that i have ....

The only agreement being that most of these strains came about in an illegal era... and wasnt documented....
So its basically unprovable....

The internet wiill tell you jack shit on og and bubba ... the knowledge is here amoung the club owners and growers in the med scene...

Shep he said "crossing THIS SMALL POTENT LANDRACE". Not crossing TO LANDRACES.

Kush is a landrace too. Not just sativas.

I know. Many breeders bred Indica Landraces (Kush, Afghani, Pakistani, Indian) into really nice Sativa Landraces (e.g. to increase yield), which in my opionion, damaged a lot of the Sativa genepool. I guess my post was semi off-topic.

I have never had any issues with Greenhouse seeds, 100% germ rate and no hermies. I have their Bubba Kush outside right now, it's probably the strongest healthiest plant I have right now at about 9' tall. Definitely a strain I am going to hold on to. Have not seen the finished product yet but I am sure it will be good!

Green house bubba right here, jus starting to flower, stinks like amazing skunk. Kinda slow on the veg. Guna be a long flowering period. (prob mid to late oct.)

but its very bushy with mad bud sites. Guna be decent harvest of amazing smoke. Shits guna be smelly as hell.

I had 100% germ rate or 99% germ rate with all the bubbas i got.

oh and those pics are from 3 weeks to a month ago
