Bubble Gum Cheese
Also known as: Bubblegum Cheese
Bubble Gum Cheese Strain Overview
Bubble Gum Cheese is a modern hybrid cannabis strain that combines two well-known genetics: Bubble Gum and Cheese. The strain emerged in the early 2000s as breeders sought to blend the sweet, candy-like characteristics of Bubble Gum with the pungent, savory notes of Cheese. While its exact origins are somewhat debated within cannabis communities, it is generally accepted to have been developed by European breeders who were experimenting with these popular phenotypes. The strain gained popularity in both European and North American markets for its unique flavor profile and balanced effects.
The plant typically displays characteristics of both its parent strains, with dense, resinous buds that often exhibit a combination of bright green and purple hues, depending on growing conditions. The flowers are usually covered in a generous layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance. Bubble Gum Cheese plants tend to produce a strong, complex aroma that immediately announces its dual heritage - users often detect sweet, fruity notes reminiscent of bubblegum candy layered over the distinctive funky, cheesy scent that gives the Cheese parent its name.
Bubble Gum Cheese is considered a relatively stable hybrid that maintains consistent characteristics across different growing environments. Its balanced genetic profile makes it appealing to both recreational users seeking a well-rounded experience and medical users looking for versatile effects. The strain has maintained a steady following since its introduction, though it hasn't achieved the widespread commercial popularity of some other Cheese or Bubble Gum crosses.

Bubble Gum Cheese Strain Growing Information
Bubble Gum Cheese is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, making it better suited for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests occurring in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields are generally good, producing approximately 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can yield 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions.
The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor growing environments, though indoor cultivation allows better control over the strong odors produced during flowering. Plants tend to be medium in height, usually reaching 100-150 cm indoors and potentially taller outdoors. Bubble Gum Cheese responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training (LST) to maximize yields. Growers should maintain good air circulation and monitor humidity levels carefully, as the dense buds can be susceptible to mold in overly humid conditions. The strain has moderate nutrient requirements and generally shows good resistance to common pests and diseases.
