Bubba Kush (Dr.Reefer)

From:  Dr. Reefer

Grade:  B

Type:  Hybrid – Indica dominant genetics.  Don’t know Dr. Reefer’s exact genetics, but most info points to Bubble Gum  x Master Kush (or OG Kush).  Bubble Gum can be Indica or Sativa dominant based upon the specific seed or clone, but was originally made from 3 Sativas and 1 Afghani Indica.

Price:  $30/gram

Appearance:  Although it was really pretty, this category is one of the reasons this specimen didn’t score higher.  The buds were loose with a lot of space inside.  They were there but you could see right through them, like the AT&T 3G map.  They had beautiful color, but they just weren’t grown up to the highest standards.  Kush is often lighter and less dense, but this was past the norm in my opinion.

Aroma: A mild piney smell up front followed by a very light fruit undertone (not a strong fruit or citrus as often reported).

Taste: Tastes as expected from the smell, with an unexpected familar residue that reminded me of some old “cough” strains from FTC970 in the mid to late 90′s.

Buzz Type: Though Indica dominant, I was met with an immediate energy and euphoria that had me on my feet rocking back and forth in the kitchen.  There was no couch lock incentive at all, and I was extremely talkative.  I believe this strain has the sativa heavy version of the Bubble Gum in its roots.

Buzz Length: Medium. 1 – 1.5 hours

Pain Management: (We are NOT doctors – personal opinion ONLY)  I found this strain to assist with mild-medium pain, but not sufficient for over the top pain.  It isn’t going to knock you out if that’s what you need.  It will provide motivation, however, and that is often useful depending on your needs.

Overall: I liked the Bubba Kush quite a bit.  With a little better growing I think this could have been an A- strain, but I don’t think the Bubba Kush in general can score much higher than that.  The OG Kush and the Plum Kush reviewed previously are both better options if you have them available.
