Dub
Also known as: Dub OG, Dubb
Dub Strain Overview
Dub is a hybrid cannabis strain that has gained recognition primarily in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States, particularly in Oregon and Washington. The strain's exact origins are somewhat obscure, with multiple breeders claiming development, but it is generally accepted to have emerged in the early 2010s. Dub is known for its balanced effects that combine physical relaxation with cerebral stimulation, making it a versatile choice for various occasions.
The strain typically produces dense, resinous buds with a distinctive appearance featuring dark green leaves often accented with purple hues and a generous coating of trichomes. The buds are usually medium to large in size with a compact structure. Notable features include its complex aroma profile that evolves during cultivation and curing, and its relatively consistent performance across different growing environments.
While not as widely distributed as some commercial strains, Dub has maintained a loyal following among connoisseurs who appreciate its reliable effects and distinctive flavor profile. The strain's name is believed to reference both its West Coast origins and its ability to provide a 'dub' (slang for twenty dollars' worth) of quality cannabis experience. Some sources suggest the name may also refer to the 'W' shape sometimes visible in the bud structure when properly cultivated.

Dub Strain Growing Information
Dub is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The flowering time typically ranges from 8 to 10 weeks when grown indoors. Outdoor plants are usually ready for harvest in late September to early October in northern hemisphere climates. Expected yields are moderate to high, with indoor growers reporting 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can produce 500-700 grams per plant.
The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor environments but prefers a Mediterranean-like climate when grown outside. Indoor plants typically reach heights of 100-150 cm, while outdoor plants can grow to 180-220 cm. Special considerations include maintaining proper humidity control during flowering to prevent mold, as the dense buds can be susceptible in humid conditions. The plants respond well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training (LST) to maximize yields. Nutrient requirements are moderate, with some growers noting sensitivity to nitrogen during flowering.
