It is important to not let them be overgrown by neighbouring plants which may grow faster at first. The initial stages of seedlings can be tender, and you have to take care a bit for them in that stage. It is a strong and beautiful plant which grows a heavy stem, you never need to tie heavy buds up. Upon being asked about special considerations to Bubble Gum, Simon explained: “The bubble gum strain shows a remarkable uniformity in plants grown from seeds. It is remarkable that the Bubble Gum strain is the only inbred strain (no F1 hybrid) in the Serious menu, thus being especially uniform. He says that it is not possible to give exact sativa/indica percentages, but reveals that the genetic background of Bubble Gum consists of three different exotic sativas, amongst them Mexican and Columbian, and an Afghani indica. It took Simon five generations to end up in the desired breeding result, officially registering it then as “Bubble Gum”. He focused his research on two of the three lines, finally deciding for one type that should become his Bubble Gum strain. Seeds` BG will be another story…) considers his Bubble Gum as “mostly indica”, whereas Simon puts his version into the “Mostly Sativa” category. Seeds did work further with another of those 3 plants than I did”. Three breeders – three ways of breeding: These seed meisters were going to make their own special selection out of the three different genetic types they had received. And from that moment on, different new chapters were written in the breeding history of Bubble Gum, its development kind of branched out. So the Indiana Bubblegum arrived in the Netherlands in the hands of three breeders. Sees as well as to Simon and Tony (the two splitted up shortly after, with Simon founding Serious Seeds and Tony Sagarmatha Seeds) from Cerebral Seeds. In 1993, this guy gave three very different female Bubble Gum plants to Adam from T.H. Asking both the above-mentioned breeders resulted in two corresponding versions of the Bubble Gum`s breeding story, giving good reasons for the existence of two high-quality Bubble Gum strains: The original material was developed by a grower in Indiana (USA) during the 80ies. So I decided to trace back the real roots of Bubble Gum. Seeds (both residing in Amsterdam), not to mention all those internet-based criminal copy cats here. Growers get especially confused, when a certain strain is offered under the same name by two or more seed banks: who has the original one, whose are copies? The Bubble gum strain is such one contentious strain, of which at least two seed banks do offer their own versions, in this case Serious Seeds and T.H. There are several strains out in the world of cannabis genetics whose origin and further breeding process seem to be unclear. Serious Seeds Bubble Gum strain – a “seriously” refined classic Text & Photos: Green Born Identity – G.B.I. The legendary sweet strawberry flavor of this variety is well pronounced in plants grown from feminized seeds! The Bubble Gumis the motherplant of the legendary Strawberry-Banana produced by Crockett Family Farms. In November 2018 an extract from Bubble Gum made by Nectars Collective has won the FIRST place in the category Hybrids at the 4th annual Jack Herer-Cup in Las Vegas, USA. In September 2016 the feminized seeds of Bubble Gum have won the third place in the category Sativa at the Expogrow-Cup 2016 in Irun, Spain. In 20 it won 5 local and national Cups in Spain alone!

The Serious Seeds Bubble Gum is more sativa like in looks and effect, a sturdy and strong plant, with the characteristic, sweet smell (truly resembling a typical bubble gum taste) and euphoric high the original trademarks of this famous strain. Each created their own ‘ original Bubble Gum strain’ from that genetic material. Later this Indiana Bubblegum genetics came to the Netherlands and were given to two different seed companies. Originally the Bubblegum strain was developed by growers in Indiana, USA. Plants grown from seeds are very similar to one another. Legendary for its bubblegum sweet smell and euphoric high the Bubble Gum strain grow into a medium tall plant, usually not too branchy (sometimes tall) and produces compact, crystal covered buds.
