Red Bubba
Also known as: Bubba Kush Red Pheno
Red Bubba Strain Overview
Red Bubba is a rare phenotype variant of the legendary Bubba Kush strain, developed by Mike Crowe Seedery. This mostly indica strain is described as a cross between a Bubba Kush red phenotype and Bubba iX, with a flowering time of approximately 55 days. Like its parent strain, Red Bubba maintains the classic indica characteristics that made Bubba Kush famous. The original Bubba Kush emerged just after 1996, when an OG Kush pollinated an unknown indica strain obtained in New Orleans, with the mother plant supposedly being Northern Lights. The strain exhibits the typical stocky, short plant structure with dense, resin-coated buds that can display forest green to purple hues, though the 'red' designation suggests this particular phenotype may show reddish coloration. Red Bubba is characterized by chocolate nutella, nutty, skunky anise aromas with nag champ notes, maintaining the complex terpene profile that makes Bubba Kush varieties so distinctive. Due to limited cultivation and documentation, Red Bubba remains one of the more elusive variants in the Bubba Kush family tree.
