Bubblegum Kush: Burst Your Bubble

Bubblegum Kush seeds grow into medium to tall plants with long buds and short leaves. The plants are exclusively green, with the buds appearing more pale than the leaves and branches. Looking closely at the buds, you can see orange pistils forming while every inch of the plant is coated in thick, sticky resin. This resin helps give off the aromatic skunkiness of the plant. After harvest, you are left with dense and dank nuggets of green and amber. Breaking these nuggets apart increases the scent that draws you in long before you ever partake in the herb. Although the Kush variant of the Bubblegum strain has not taken home any major awards, its parent strains have won notable awards globally. On the local level, Bubblegum Kush has taken home a few trophies, and its reputation in the marijuana marketplace is stellar. The Bubblegum strain has won multiple Cannabis Cup awards, making the B Kush strain a winner by proxy.
