Sour Bubba
Also known as: Sour Bubba Kush
What is the Sour Bubba strain?
Sour Bubba is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 26.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and chocolate and coffee flavor profile.
Sour Bubba is a boutique hybrid that marries the legendary Sour Diesel with the equally iconic Bubba Kush, created by The Bank Genetics. This indica-dominant hybrid (approximately 70/30 indica/sativa) provides a synergistic balance between the sedative qualities of Bubba Kush and the mental invigoration of Sour Diesel. Sour Diesel brought soaring, citrus-diesel aromatics and energetic uplift, while Bubba Kush contributed dense structure, resinous flowers, and tranquil body effects.
Sour Bubba features round, densely packed buds with a fluff of moss green colors, curly brown leaves, and shiny white trichomes. Consumers report that Sour Bubba features a dank odor of sour, herbal musk streaked with incense, thanks to its Kush heritage. The cultivar is prized for its balanced-yet-heavy experience: a fast lift behind the eyes from the Sour side followed by a steady, body-centric melt from the Bubba lineage. Many consumers describe it as a late-afternoon or evening strain that won't immediately glue you to the couch at moderate doses, yet can be profoundly sedating at higher intakes.
Sour Bubba is a medium-height hybrid that flourishes in both indoor and outdoor gardens, favoring a semi-humid climate with temperatures between 70 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit. The cultivar flowers in 70 to 84 days indoors and in early October outside, producing an average yield. Because its parent lines are stabilized classics, Sour Bubba tends to exhibit predictable growth traits and consistent bag appeal when produced carefully.

How do you grow Sour Bubba?
Growers must anticipate a moderately challenging experience with medium-tall plants that benefit from LST and pruning early on if they want to see maximum results, being abundant yields ranging up to 550g/m². The short flowering cycle of 9 weeks makes for a quick turnaround. Sour Bubba can be cultivated indoors and outdoors with a flowering time of ±63 days (60-65 days). Growth stature is average to tall with medium density colas and high yield potential. Sour Bubba responds well to both soil and hydro/coco systems, delivering best results in environments that emphasize steady VPD and moderate feed strength. Indoors, aim for day temps of 68–78°F (20–26°C) and nights at 60–68°F (16–20°C), keeping a 8–10°F differential to limit excessive stretch. Relative humidity should hover around 60–65% in late veg, 50–55% in early flower, and 40–45% late flower to prevent botrytis in dense colas.
