Bodega Bubblegum
Bodega Bubblegum
Also known as: Bubblegum Kush
Overview
Bodega Bubblegum is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain created by Greenpoint Seeds through crossing Indiana Bubblegum with Stardawg. This strain represents a modern evolution of the classic Bubblegum genetics, adding the potent characteristics of Stardawg to create a well-balanced hybrid that combines sweet candy-like aromas with skunky, earthy undertones. The strain typically exhibits a 70% indica to 30% sativa ratio, making it ideal for relaxation while still maintaining some cerebral activity.
The strain is renowned for its beautiful multi-colored foliage and dense, frosty buds that are heavily coated in trichomes. Bodega Bubblegum plants display vibrant colors during flowering, with deep variegated leaf structures and clusters of rusty orange pistils. The aroma profile is complex, featuring the signature sweet bubblegum scent inherited from its Indiana Bubblegum parent, combined with chemical, diesel, and earthy notes from the Stardawg lineage. This creates what users describe as 'sweet and gummy industrial chemicals' - a unique aromatic signature that sets it apart from other strains.
Bodega Bubblegum has gained popularity among both recreational and medical users for its well-balanced effects that provide both mental stimulation and physical relaxation. The strain offers a quick flowering time and hardy growth characteristics, making it attractive to cultivators seeking both quality and efficiency.
