Bubblegum Sherb
Bubblegum Sherb
Also known as: Bubble Gum Sherb, Bubblegum Sherbet, Bubble Gum Sherbet
Overview
Bubblegum Sherb is an indica-dominant hybrid strain that represents a carefully crafted fusion of two iconic cannabis genetics: Bubble Gum and Sunset Sherbet. This strain emerged from meticulous breeding programs that sought to combine the nostalgic bubblegum sweetness of the classic 1990s Bubble Gum strain with the creamy, dessert-like qualities of Sunset Sherbet. The result is a predominantly indica hybrid with a typical 70% indica to 30% sativa ratio, celebrated for its exceptional terpene profile and high potency levels reaching 30-32% THC. Breeders selected the most potent, flavor-rich specimens from both parent strains through multiple generations of testing to achieve genetic stability and consistent quality. The strain exhibits dense, resin-covered buds with a robust, spade-shaped structure that showcases light green coloration with visible trichome coverage. The aromatic profile is complex and layered, initially presenting sweet bubblegum and fruity berry scents, which evolve into more nuanced notes of ripe strawberry, Meyer lemon zest, vanilla cream, and subtle earthy undertones. This sophisticated flavor development reflects the strain's carefully curated genetics and makes it particularly appealing to both recreational and medical cannabis users who appreciate dessert-like cannabis experiences.

Growing Information
Bubblegum Sherb is considered an easy-to-moderate difficulty strain suitable for both novice and expert growers. It thrives in both indoor and outdoor environments with a flowering time of 8-10 weeks. Indoor cultivation yields approximately 450-550 grams per square meter (1.47-1.80 oz/ft²), while outdoor growing can produce 600-800 grams per plant (21.16-28.21 oz/plant). Plants typically reach heights of around 5 feet (1.5 meters) and exhibit a compact, indica-dominant structure with minimal side branching. The strain prefers temperatures between 68-78°F during the day with nighttime drops of 7-9°F. Humidity should be maintained at 55-60% during vegetative growth and reduced to 40% during flowering, dropping to 30% near harvest. Outdoor growers in the Northern Hemisphere should plant in April for an October harvest. The strain shows good resistance to pests and diseases but requires proper odor control due to its strong aromatic profile during flowering.
