Strain overview: A descendant of OG Kush and another indica-dominant strain, Bubba Kush is known for its knockout potency. It delivers hash, chocolate, and coffee flavor profiles with effects that leave you in a tranquil state of bliss. This strain grows short and fat with large dense buds, speaking to its Afghani lineage.

Grow techniques: Bubba Kush is a great strain for hydroponic growers as the plants stay short and dense, growing beautiful trichome-covered buds. Pack them in closely and prune their lower branches to develop a beautiful SOG (sea of green). Top your crop to create full, even canopies in your garden.
