White Bubba Kush
Also known as: White Bubba, White Bubba OG
White Bubba Kush Strain Overview
White Bubba Kush is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain that emerged in the early 2000s as part of the popular 'Bubba' family of strains. This variety combines the genetics of two legendary strains: White Widow and Bubba Kush. The strain was developed by breeders seeking to enhance the resin production and potency of traditional Bubba Kush while maintaining its signature relaxing effects and distinctive flavor profile. White Bubba Kush represents a successful fusion of Dutch breeding expertise with classic American genetics, creating a strain that has gained popularity in both medical and recreational cannabis markets.
The strain's appearance is characterized by dense, chunky buds covered in a thick layer of frosty white trichomes, giving it a 'white' appearance that inspired its name. The nugs typically display deep green hues with occasional purple undertones and vibrant orange pistils. The heavy trichome coverage makes White Bubba Kush particularly suitable for extraction purposes, including the production of hash and concentrates. The plant structure is typically short and bushy with broad leaves, consistent with its indica heritage.
White Bubba Kush is known for its complex aroma and flavor profile that combines earthy, hash-like notes from its Bubba Kush lineage with subtle citrus undertones inherited from White Widow. The smoke is generally smooth and thick, with effects that are predominantly physical and sedating. While not as widely documented as some mainstream strains, White Bubba Kush has developed a dedicated following among indica enthusiasts who appreciate its potent effects and distinctive characteristics.

White Bubba Kush Strain Growing Information
White Bubba Kush is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plant has a flowering time of approximately 8-9 weeks indoors and is ready for harvest outdoors in late September to early October. Indoor yields typically range from 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions. The strain prefers indoor cultivation where environmental factors can be controlled, though it can be grown outdoors in warm, Mediterranean climates. Plants remain relatively short, usually reaching 90-120 cm indoors and 150-180 cm outdoors. Special considerations include maintaining proper humidity control during flowering to prevent mold due to the dense bud structure, and providing adequate support for branches as the heavy buds develop. The strain responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yield.
