Trouble Gum
Also known as: Trouble Gum Auto, Trouble Gum Autoflower
Trouble Gum Strain Overview
Trouble Gum is a modern hybrid cannabis strain developed by the Spanish seed bank Kannabia. The strain represents a carefully engineered cross between two notable parent strains: Bubble Gum and a proprietary autoflowering variety. This genetic combination creates a plant that inherits the sweet, fruity characteristics of Bubble Gum while incorporating the convenience and rapid growth cycle of autoflowering genetics. The strain was specifically bred to offer consistent performance and reliable results for both novice and experienced cultivators.
Visually, Trouble Gum plants typically display a compact, bushy structure with dense, resinous buds that are often tinged with purple hues, particularly in cooler growing conditions. The flowers are covered in a generous layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance. The leaves tend to be dark green with occasional purple accents. The strain's name reflects both its sweet flavor profile and the 'trouble' it might cause due to its potent effects, though this is more of a marketing play on words than an accurate description of its cultivation challenges.
Notably, Trouble Gum is available primarily as an autoflowering variety, meaning it transitions from vegetative growth to flowering based on age rather than light cycle changes. This characteristic makes it particularly suitable for growers in regions with shorter growing seasons or those seeking multiple harvests per year. The strain has gained popularity in European markets and among home growers who appreciate its balance of recreational effects and cultivation simplicity.

Trouble Gum Strain Growing Information
Trouble Gum is considered an easy-to-grow strain suitable for beginners, particularly in its autoflowering form. The flowering time is approximately 8-9 weeks from seed to harvest. Plants typically reach a height of 60-100 cm indoors and 80-120 cm outdoors. Expected yields are moderate: 350-450 grams per square meter indoors or 30-80 grams per plant outdoors. The strain performs well in both indoor and outdoor environments, though it thrives in Mediterranean climates when grown outside. Special considerations include its preference for stable temperatures (20-26°C) and moderate humidity levels. As an autoflower, it does not require light cycle changes to initiate flowering, making it ideal for continuous harvest setups. The plants are generally resistant to common molds and pests but benefit from good air circulation.
