Boo Boo
Also known as: BooBoo, Boo Boo Kush
Boo Boo Strain Overview
Boo Boo is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain that emerged in the early 2010s from the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. The strain's exact origins remain somewhat obscure, with multiple breeders claiming development, though most sources attribute its creation to local growers in Oregon and Washington who sought to create a potent, relaxing strain with distinctive flavor characteristics. The name 'Boo Boo' reportedly references both the soothing, comforting effects users experience and the strain's tendency to produce dense, compact buds that resemble small bumps or 'boo-boos' on the plant.
Visually, Boo Boo plants typically display deep green foliage with occasional purple hues that become more pronounced during cooler nighttime temperatures in the flowering phase. The buds are characteristically dense and resinous, often covered in a thick layer of trichomes that give them a frosty appearance. Orange pistils weave through the compact flower structure, creating a striking contrast against the dark green and purple background. The strain's aroma profile is complex, combining earthy base notes with sweet, fruity undertones and a hint of spice.
Boo Boo has gained a reputation among cannabis enthusiasts for its balanced yet potent effects that begin with cerebral stimulation before transitioning to full-body relaxation. While not as widely commercially available as some mainstream strains, it maintains a dedicated following in certain regional markets, particularly in the Pacific Northwest where it originated. The strain's genetic stability and relatively straightforward cultivation requirements have contributed to its persistence in the cannabis community despite limited large-scale commercial production.

Boo Boo Strain Growing Information
Boo Boo is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants have a flowering time of approximately 8-9 weeks indoors and are ready for harvest by mid to late October outdoors. Indoor yields typically range from 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions. The strain prefers a controlled indoor environment but can also thrive outdoors in temperate climates with consistent sunlight. Plants tend to remain relatively compact, reaching heights of 100-150 cm indoors and 150-200 cm outdoors. Special considerations include maintaining stable humidity levels during flowering to prevent mold (due to dense bud structure) and implementing proper nutrient management as the plants can be sensitive to overfeeding. Some phenotypes may benefit from low-stress training techniques to improve light penetration and airflow.
