Bubblegum XL
Bubblegum XL
Also known as: Bubble Gum XL
Overview
Bubblegum XL cannabis seeds are the result of crossing Power Plant and Santa Maria. The Bubblegum variety first emerged in Indiana, yet subsequent phenotypes were later perfected, both in New England and the Netherlands — the cannabis capital of Europe. The Dutch phenotype — developed by TH Seeds — entered circulation and put Bubblegum on the radar of cannabis users all over the world. This sweet and aromatic strain went on to garner quite the reputation, winning awards at the High Times Cannabis Cup and the Spannabis Cannabis Champion's Cup in 2005.
Bubblegum's cannabis seeds feature a perfectly balanced genetic profile of 50% sativa and 50% indica. The buds are pale green with many orange hairs. The bud itself is a bit airy and covered in crystals. Bubblegum XL has a sweeter aroma than many other Amsterdam strains, with a sweet earthy flavour. Bubblegum XL is a modern, yield-forward interpretation of the classic Bubble Gum family, celebrated for its dessert-sweet bouquet and balanced, feel-good effects. The exact parental combinations can vary by seed house, but the guiding intent is consistent: deliver that hallmark sweet-candy terpene profile with better yields and fewer finicky growth habits. The "XL" tag is not merely marketing; it typically reflects selection pressure on inflorescence size, calyx density, and overall harvest mass per square meter.

Growing Information
This plant can easily yield 500 grams per square meter when grown indoors, not the largest yield but the quality makes it worth it. Indoor plants range between 2.6 - 4.6 feet and outdoor plants can grow as tall as 78 inches. Bubblegum XL can grow as short as 80 centimeters, and as tall 140 centimeters indoors. When grown outdoors, its shortest height is at 160 centimeters, while it can be as tall as 200 centimeters. Plants reared from Bubblegum XL cannabis seeds require around 8–9 weeks to reach maturity, producing dense, highly resinous buds. However extra attention must be paid to avoid problems with mould and rot in wetter climates. She will not grow too tall and doesn't even stretch up too much like some Dutch strains do – staying small and manageable. Suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation, with outdoor harvest typically ready in October.
