Pre-98 Bubba Kush S1
Also known as: Pre98 Bubba Kush S1, P98 S1, Pre 98 Bubba S1
Pre-98 Bubba Kush S1 Strain Overview
Pre-98 Bubba Kush S1 is a feminized self-pollinated (S1) version of the legendary Pre-98 Bubba Kush clone-only strain that emerged from California in the late 1990s. This indica-dominant strain (85% indica/15% sativa) was created by crossing Pre-98 Bubba Kush with itself to preserve the original genetics in seed form. The Pre-98 Bubba Kush clone became one of the foundational Kush strains that sparked "Kushmania" in the 2000s and is referenced in countless hip-hop songs for its potent narcotic effects. The S1 version maintains the characteristic dense, golf ball-sized nuggets covered in frost, with dark forest green buds featuring purple hues and burnt orange pistils. Known for its compact structure with broad leaves and medium yields, this strain produces the same chocolate, coffee, and earthy kushy goodness that made the original famous. The origins of Bubba Kush are disputed, but one account suggests it came from an accidental pollination in the early 1990s between a "Crippy" bagseed female and a Northern Lights female that had hermaphrodite flowers.

Pre-98 Bubba Kush S1 Strain Growing Information
Pre-98 Bubba Kush S1 is considered suitable for beginner growers as it is relatively easy to cultivate and forgiving. The flowering time is 63-70 days, with plants being "caked with frost by 55 days" but requiring the full 70 days for maximum narcotic effects and strongest terpene profile. This is a moderate yielder that produces golf ball-sized dense nuggets. The plants grow into a medium size with compact nodes and can be cultivated both indoors and outdoors. It prefers warm, dry climates when grown outside and responds well to hydroponic systems as a medium feeder. The strain benefits from Screen of Green (SCROG) training methods and maintains stable genetics with minimal hermaphrodite tendencies. Indoor yields average 300g per square meter, outdoor yields around 400g per square meter. Plants typically reach 60-80 inches in height and prefer humidity levels of 45-55% during vegetation, dropping to 30-40% during flowering to prevent mold.
