Medical Applications

Pre-98 Bubba Kush is reported to provide a moderate potency, delivering relaxing and sedative effects that may aid in alleviating various physical and mental health conditions.

Chronic Pain, Muscle Pain, and Other Pain Types

Cannabis, with its anti-inflammatory and analgesic compounds like THC, CBD, and beta-caryophyllene, can assist in reducing or diverting pain.

Arthritis

CBD may activate CB2 receptors, reducing inflammation

Depression

CBD's modulation of serotonin transmission offers anti-depressant and anxiolytic effects.

Anxiety, Panic Disorders

Cannabis, rich in anxiolytic compounds, can mitigate stress and reduce cortisol production.

Insomnia

THC's ability to stimulate adenosine release aids in promoting sleep.

Headache & Migraine

Cannabis contains various compounds, including anxiolytic, antidepressant, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, analgesic, and stress-relieving elements, providing relief from migraine headache pain.

Dosing

Caution is advised when using it to address stress and anxiety symptoms, as even moderate doses could potentially induce paranoia. Inhalation of cannabis takes up to 15 minutes for THC to reach peak bloodstream levels. When experimenting with high THC strains, it's prudent to begin with small doses, progress gradually, and wait at least 15 minutes between administrations (tokes, bites, etc.). For edibles, waiting one to two hours before considering a redose is recommended, given the heightened potency of ingested cannabis.

Growing

This strain yields sizable green buds adorned with purple accents, featuring flowers enveloped in delicate white pistils and an amber frost upon maturation. Exhibiting broad leaves and compact nodes, growers observe robust growth.

Ideal for novice cultivators, this variety proves relatively easy to nurture. Its manageable, compact structure with good branching benefits from selective trimming of larger fan leaves to enhance light penetration into the lower canopy and promote improved air circulation.

Pre-98 Bubba Kush thrives in hydroponic systems and is a moderate feeder. While naturally compact, strategic training methods, particularly the "screen of green" (SCROG) technique involving early vegetative stage topping, can enhance yields. This method encourages lateral shoot production, evolving into colas (flowers) as branches are gently woven through horizontal support, maximizing light exposure for potential bud sites.

With a medium yield, it averages 300 grams per square meter indoors and 400 grams per square meter outdoors.

Height

Pre-98 Bubba Kush typically reaches a height ranging from 60 to 80 inches indoors and outdoors.

Humidity and Temperature

For optimal growth outdoors, Pre-98 Bubba Kush thrives in warmer climates. Maintain relative humidity between 40%-60% during the vegetative phase, reducing it to 30%-40% in the flowering stage to thwart mold, including bud rot. Keep temperatures within the range of 71-82°F (22-28°C).

Flowering

The flowering duration for this strain extends slightly beyond the typical timeframe for indica varieties, spanning around nine weeks or 63 days. Notably, some growers assert successful harvesting at approximately seven weeks.
