Bob Saget
Also known as: The Bob, OG Bob Saget
Overview
Bob Saget, also known as "The Bob," is a sativa-dominant hybrid (70% sativa/30% indica) cannabis strain that has earned notable recognition in the cannabis community. This strain secured 2nd place at the prestigious 2016 Colorado Cannabis Cup and was created by master breeder Tierra Rojo (of New House Seeds) during the summer of 2010. The strain's unique name originated from a sloppily-written plant tag which appeared to read "SAGET" rather than "SAGE x" and just stuck because everyone thought it was funny.
Bob Saget is one of the most unique-looking plants, described as a "freak confluence of quality genetics which produced a plant which is perhaps greater than the sum of its parts." The plant displays distinctive characteristics including extremely resinous buds with almost no leaf aside from fan leaves, overly resinous nugs stacked like columns, and trichomes spread vibrantly over green, almost grey plant material tipped with muted purple, creating lumpy popcorn-shaped olive green nugs with bright orange hairs and amber crystal trichomes. The strain is held tightly by a very select few in the Colorado area as a clone-only variety, making it relatively rare and sought-after among cannabis enthusiasts.

Growing Information
Bob Saget can be cultivated both indoors and outdoors with a flowering time of approximately 77 days (11 weeks). The difficulty to grow Bob Saget is known for being average. The plant flourishes in coco coir with well-aerated mix and relatively heavy feeding, stretching a fair amount when kicked into flower but not excessively. SCROG or similar training is recommended to maximize yield, and height management techniques like topping and Screen of Green are beneficial for indoor cultivation. In the northern hemisphere, Bob Saget blooms between late October to mid-November and produces at least 16 ounces of buds per plant. The strain responds well to controlled environments and benefits from careful attention to terpene preservation during cultivation.
