✊2 different phenotypes to try. Not what I had in mind, but they will be a real delight. My guess is plant 1 will be very, very strong and plant 2 would be very very strong as well. ******************************************************** SMOKE TEST, REPORT & COMMENTS 2 WEEKS AFTER ********************************************************** Feels like I did not get a phenotype that is a real blend of those 2 legends. 2 seeds, 2 different plants, one looks like a Bubba, the other one like a Malawi. Results are not what I was expecting, has my first criteria to grow this strain was to improve the terpene profile of the Malawi. Plant 1, aka Malawi dominant Really finished like a classic Malawi (yes, Sativaman already grew a few of them😍...). Light green, chunky hard buds, drenched in resin, great calyxes ratio, and full of trichomes. Smell is what I'd describe as nutty woody oily like other Malawi. And like other Malawi I can get some vanilla and pine undertones that seems to go away in the first months. Gotta say, buds are harder than usual, and resin production was exceptional.. Effects are heavy. For seasoned smokers. Usually I smoke joints around one gram, with this one I've learned quickly that smaller is better. At higher dose it's good for greening out. Very heavy and psychadelic feelings, like edibles at very high dose (300mg thc+). I guess it would be fantastic for medical uses as a morphine substitute. At lower dose you get the excitement of Sativas, with increased hart beat, feeling like moving and doing stuff. Still some heaviness and distortion. At this strenght, when you get a hit, the psychedelic effects hit you and this is what I Love with this strain! It feels like you've jump out of plane in parachute, nice haed spin rush with diziness, Do I like her?, or Do I Love her?! = I LOVE her !!! this is the best *Malawi* I have ever grown!! Best effects, most appealing harvest, best burning qualities, but not with a dankier smell... Plant 2 aka Bubba dominant Finished with almost all qualities a grower could expect: killer looking buds, purple colour, rock hard buds, covered with trichomes ... but with very little smell and no taste!! =( ... I know this is a major deception and I am very sad to write this.. Truth hurt but it is what it is. ACE did not used a modern cut, neither the classic one for this cross: they used the Katsu cut. While Katsu is the father of every Bubba, the Katsu cut is a floral version. I've smoked a lot of this when I was young.... Nothing bad to say but not what you expect when you talk about Bubba kush. ACE's mission is to preserve and spread biodiversity so I guess using an old school underground cut for a cross, even for a *classic*, makes sense.. *sight* .... Effects, well she smokes like an indica, not too heavy, and as the opposite to her Malawi sister, effects gets more psychedelic on the mid term instead of the short term. While not being too strong this is a nice blend of both body and mind buzz. So.. Do I like her? or Do I Love her!?? I like her.... this is not exceptional smoke, a little blend, and reason to grow this was for some Dank, Stinky, Pungent, Skunky aromas. None of them are here.

Dear Gaia Green, Please, can you put more K in your so called cannabis friendly nutrients?? This ratio of N-P-K is not optimal for growing cannabis...

Bubba Kush meeting (mating) with Old Malawi killer πŸ˜‹πŸ˜˜ Bubba Kush is one of my best indica, for taste, smell and effects while Malawi is my best sativa for it's effects. This is officially a wicked and insane cross according to Phylos Galaxy!! To resume, these 2 specific genetics have a lot of differences and something special could happen when they are crossed!!! *************************************** Grow cycle went like a charm. While in vegetation both phenotypes grew at about the same paste except for plant 2 being more columnar but denser. Soon after flip the Malawi dominant, plant 1, stretched more and the Bubba showed thicker stems. Total stretch is between 2-3 times. After flip bud formation went fast, and the difference between the 2 plants kept pushing. Plant 1 showed the conic bud structure and plant 2 had the flat crown and more leaf like an indica. They have both ripen at about the same paste all along weeks. Results are two different but somehow similar, crazy and stunning phenotypes. The Malawi dominant plant seems to be the one with the less influence of the cross. It looks similar to Malawi but chunkier, with rock hard buds that are covered with trichomes at a level I've never reached before. The buds are dripping with resin and oil. Out of the tent she smelles like a bouquet of flower but when gently rubbed the buds smells like Malawi with hearty touch. Leaf to bud ratio is excellent and trimming was easy. The Bubba phenotype looks absolutely killer. I don't know if it's from the Malawi or the Bubba Kush but she have some purple hues mostly at the top and some fully purple calyxes mostly at the bottom. The level of resin is not close to the Malawi, but the smell is dankier with a touch of rotten smell, grape and heart. She was leafy and it showed in her buds. trimming took more time.

@HighRoller909, Seedsman used to be good but orders don't end up making it thru customs anymore stealth just doesn't cut it unfortunately . I may try one of the other "seedbanks" but because they won't send original breeder packs It is unknown whether you are actually getting what you paid for??

Well, let's wait after the flowers are cured. I have faith in Ace.

@sativaman, the truth shall be revealed only after curing. I think some terpenes stay only for a short time and some are shy. The shy terpenes comes out only after a month or so i. The jar. Sativa is some time like this. I smoke joint so not a big fan of kush. I think kush is great with a bong.

@Med_in_Tropic, I did not know about Katsu. Just saw a vid on youtube he explains the difference and origins of pre-98 Bubba kush and the Katsu cut. then he comments: if I give you the 2 different bags to smoke you would know instantly they both are Bubba Kush and pronably won't be able to identify witch is witch.. Happy to hear that!! Characteristics should be very similar...

Dear friend, you may have mite infestation. This could cause more trouple on some strain than other. Ace did listed resitance to spider mite on PCK x KC to be "average-high". For me, if it is not very high then it would need attention.

Well @sativaman, what works for 6 legged insects may or may not work for eight legged mites. I had a heck of a time with mites at the moment. Comes with the wet season.

@Med_in_Tropic, Oh yeah.. I forgot.. also have on hands some diatomaceous earth spray but it shoots like a jet it is designed for ants nest.. (Ants don't care about diatomaceous heart and it did not hurt them)

@Med_in_Tropic, I sure hope it is not mites.. never had any mites issues indoor. I cannot see any bugs or signs even with the jewellers lope. No signs of web or honey like with aphids. From my experience running these LED it still can be a Magnesuim problem. Really crossing my fingers for a mag deficiency. Letting the soil drying out a bit and tomorrow I will drench it with a triple dose of epsom salts and see what happens. Otherwise I have some 'Doctor Doom Spider Mite Knock Out' I used it on my basil plants a few years ago: all leaves turned black, dried and died..😰😱 Last resort insecticide...

@Med_in_Tropic,..Yep!! in fact I did not realised the Bublawis are advanced as well!! (Gotta say that pre-flowers started very soon after week 8. I am not counting days from flip to 12-12 but rather when I detect firsts pre-flowers).

@Grey_Wolf, I am not quite sure now mate! Just went true defoliation and they smell like Bubba! (great stickiness already!) Stem is thick and sturdy not like old Sativa would be. I would love any of the combinations: Bubba would be one of my favourite Indica and Malawi my top Sativa. Cannot wait see the outcome!!!
