To date probably my favorite strain so far. Evenly mixed 50/50 Sativa Indica plant that has a very large yield of frosty sweet buds. I did recieve a very Indica Afghani looking plant but turned out to be male. The other 2 females were pretty much uniform in every possible aspect.

The seeds I rece

Grow: Plants were very vigorous... Most of the females were very stout save one more Sativa leaning pheno (my favourite) which grew a bit lankier. All the plants had side branches which kept up with the main colas in length.
All the plants were quite frosty and beautiful but the more Sativa pheno

Grew these two Bubblegum plants indoors from seed. I had two different phenos present themselves. One leaned to the Sativa side, the other to the Indica side. The Sativa leaning pheno smelled of the famed grape bubblegum while the Indica pheno simply smelled very sweet but not exactly "grapey".

The BG’s were seeded with the moist paper-towel method, 5/5 succeeded in 10-15 hours. All were potted and put under 2x36W fluoro's. Vegetated for 28 days in 20/4 light cycle, then flowered 12/12 for 56 days under a 250W HPS. I also had a few Nirvana Skunk#1 seeds going, ended up giving them all away ...continued

Germinated 3 seeds, ended up with one healthy female. Vegged the female for a long time (2months) waiting for room in flowering cabinet. flowered for 65 days SCROG style, very manageable stretch.

The plant I ended up with looked more on the Indica side. I grew in Soil with hydroponic nutrients

Vegetative: Growth was as expected. the crippled one stayed small, but started to take off after 2 weeks, t

Here are a few notes on these genes.

Expect two to three phenotypes. One Indica-like pheno, one mix, and one sativa-like pheno were grown. The Indica yielded 1-2 oz better than the sativa pheno. The sativa has a nice clear stone with a very light fruity grape flavor. The Indica has a more relaxing body stone but with a somewhat harsh lightly fruity flavor.

The seedlings showed sex by their 25th day of life, 4 females and 2 males. They were SCROG'ed and vegged for a while, and then flowered on their 38th day when they were about 24". Plants grew 4-8" after flowering even though they were given Superbud.

Trichomes were apparent by their 16th day flowering, started turning milky by day 56, and then amber by day 63. Buds were harvested at day 65 when trichomes were about 33% amber. The Indica pheno yielded about 4.5 oz, the mix pheno yielded 3.5 oz, and the sativa pheno about 3 oz.

This was my first harvest, and the bud is better than the commercial stuff around here. The relaxing stone of the Indica pheno is my favorite. But the sativa pheno is a nice change.

The BubbleGum is good Smoke. Growing it well it gets a little tall for my taste She can get 6 feet tall veging from seed for only 6 weeks putting a pot under her thats like 7 to 7 and a half feet tall. I had 2 out of 4 females.

Vegetation for 3 weeks at 24 hours. Not many leafs and small when they showed. She was top heavy so I strung her up for about half of her budding. She was short but nice nuggets. She looks like cotton candy. Another Nirvana bargin.
