Pre-98 Bubba Strain: Hybrid Indica/Sativa

Reg seeds- Pre-98 Bubba to Pre-98 Bubba BX2
Yield: Medium

Awards: 2011- 1st Place “High CBD”, High Times Medical Cup
Pre-98 Bubba is the Pre-98 clone only that we made famous back in 2004 when we first released it on the scene and to the general public. We took this clone and we backcrossed it for regular seeds so our male/female seeds are Pre-98 Bubba to Pre-98 Bubba IBL, we just call it now Pre-98 Bubba IBL because we have it in IBL form now, so IBL is the regular version, the male is the IBL. Female seeds are Pre-98 Bubba x Pre-98 Bubba S1. We get everything you like in the Pre-98 form, it has a nag champ/hash/chocolate coffee flavored plant. Will have a medium yield of golf ball style nugs. Short and fast flowering time, 55 days. Very thick stem, hardy plant.
Expect large, stout plants with heavy yields of top shelf herb. The combination of the P98 and Mango Isle has resulted in very unusual flavors that range from meaty skunked lime to creamy earthy spearmint. There was one expression that had an acrid ammonia flavor that required extra determination to make it through a whole joint. The flowers are sativa dominant in structure, very greasy spears with not much frost on the fan leaves, but plenty on the flowers themselves. Her effects across the board are a lovely hybrid, aiding in mental stimulation, clarity, and focus while providing a sense of physical soothing without weighing you down. These make for awesome daytime smoke to stay sharp and feel great with! The figures above are based upon my own experience and include transplanting from half gallon pots to five gallon pots. I have not pushed them to their full potential and I fully anticipate seeing some higher yields from you guys. Enjoy!
Performance is not compromised in any way whatsoever, however, with final yields of up to 600g/m2 indoors easily reached by applying a little love and care to Bubba’s needs. Blast yourself flying through into the world of Bubba Kush and experience one of the most soothing cannabis strains in the world. Genuine Afghani landrace lineage ensures absolutely outstanding potency, with exotic fragrances from the east reminiscent of aromatic Turkish delight chocolate bars. Why not take a ride on the unique magical carpet ride that is the one and only Bubba Kush strain?

About
Pre-98 Bubba is a relatively simple strain to grow. Her post vegetative stretch is average to above average. She has a uniform flower structure with dense, trichome oozing flowers that don’t get overly large and moldy like some other phenotypes of Bubba. Under certain conditions she has slight purple tendencies but just enough to paint the leaf tips and calyxes. The yield and flower time is average and on par with most other kush’s in the same family.
