BUBBA WAS FUCKING BAD Well this bitch hermied on me! Pulling off the underside bud growth and confirmed it had couple males. In my hand and dried up pollen sack exploded, the pollen shot up in a little “puff” cloud. I’m mad, now I have some shitty pollen floating around my grow room. The bitch got taken out of the grow room that instant. I chopped her and weighed her wet and then threw her out. Don’t want to risk having pollen in my grinder/on my fingers when I go into the tent to take care of the other girls, that is isn’t worth the oz or two of crappy bud. Hopefully it didn’t fuck any of my other girls, but odds are that it may have impregnated my sour jack sitting right next to her. Crop King Seeds should NOT BE SELLING THESE SEEDS!!!! DO NOT BUY BUBBA KUSH IMO this is one of the main reasons for this community. To be able to look up information on strains before you buy them. Finishing a diary so others can see the results good or bad is better then abandoning a diary and leaving it in limbo where the rest of us don't know if you just got busy and didn't finish uploading it or if you had a genetics problem and killed it off early to save the rest of the crop. Please finish you diaries so the rest of us know. I'm hoping my bad experience will help save other growers the heartache of dealing with bad genetics. UPDATE: I knew stevieb21 was also growing a Bubba Kush from Crop King (don't know him, I just watch other diaries with the same strains and he was nice enough to comment on my grow a few weeks ago). I left a comment on his grow warning him to watch for hermie on his Bubba Kush, he checked a few hours later and sure enough his was hermied as well. So glad I could at least help a fellow grower out, his grow was a couple weeks behind mine, hopefully he caught it early enough that pollen didn't get onto his other 3 strains he is also growing.

Did some more digging on the Bubba Kush from Crop King Seeds, a lot of people have issues with this strain performing badly and going to hermie. Even the reviews on Crop Kings Website for this strain are 75% negative about bad genetics and hermie. I grew 4 strains at the same time, all had the same conditions, this is the only strain that hermied on me. I’m really FUCKING PISSED off at Crop King for continuing to sell seeds they know are bad genetics, and at myself for not killing this bitch off weeks ago when I suspected something wasn’t right with her but kept trying to be optimistic. The rest of my Crop King - Bubba Kush seeds are sentenced to death by FIRE. These should not be allowed to exist in this world. If someone here can tell me what I did wrong or what I could have done different to prevent her from going hermie I’d really like to hear those answers. But from all the other people I’ve seen that have had issues with this strain I think it’s most likely bad genetics.

Wow, just combing your diaries for some inklings of wisdom and thought I’d check an older one out. This is all very interesting... Firstly, thank you for trailblazing and treating the site well. I resonate and would repeat your description of how to use it, keep all diaries up, etc. Thank you NomNom! Secondly, I’ve only heard bad things about Crop King Seeds, people telling me of low quality, and yet I’ve had few problems (I just started with Crop King by fluke, headshop binder of seeds). I’m not sure what to think other than I am content trying a variety of new distributors other than Crop King! But I would recommend their Hash Plant strain (and maaaaaaaaybe their CBDutch Treat strain. Maybe.).

@NomNom, good ol’ NomNom trailblazing away, love it. I’m in a similar situation with seeds/clones. For the public viewing, other Crop King comments: Sour Jack: Mine was average yielding, I personally liked the taste but its of the Diesel variety. High was great. White Widow Autoflower: Free giveaway, musty smell, super frosty, I’m not an autoflower person. Early Miss Autoflower: Free bonus. Not great. White Widow: About to harvest, super frosty, musty/dank smelling, enjoyed bud by friends. Moderate yield. Black Indica: smells great, moderate high, moderate yield.

@@BeanswithPork, Bubba Kush was bad, very bad, and then I started looking around a chatted with a few other growers on here that grew Bubba Kush and it's just a horrible strain with a lot of problems. Soon after this Crop King Seeds suspended selling Bubba Kush for a while, I see they are now selling it again. I don't know if they fixed the issues with it but I personally wouldn't grow Bubba Kush again. Sour Jack (from Crop King Seeds) I didn't care for the taste of but the high was nice. It was a low producer though, might have just been a poor pheno. White Cookies and Super Silver Haze (Crop King Seeds) grew well and were good producers, but I fucked it up because I didn't have enough electricity in the room to run a dehumidifier and an A/C unit. I kept flipping the breakers in the room and it ended with a lot of the crop having bud rot. With that being said, the plants grew well and big, the buds I got off were a good high and tasted good (after curing for a ~6 weeks). I was actually just smoking the White Cookies yesterday (only have about 1/2 oz left of it). I would grow White Cookies and Super Silver Haze again, the problems I had with mold were completely my fault with mismanagement of the environment they grew in. Now I have my airflow, dehumidifying, and cooling handled I can hold the temp below 25C (as long as it's not a 30+ sunny day) and keep the RH ~40% even in late flower with monster plants growing. I think Crop King Seeds is hit and miss, I would recommend people to grow from a better breeder, but if it's your only/easiest source of seeds I also wouldn't discourage anyone from growing them. Thanks for the suggestions on the other strains to grow for Crop King, honestly I have about 20 other strains here that I haven't grown yet from a wide variety of breeders. I'm trying to grow the seeds that I have right now, and at 2-4 plants at a time it's going to be a years before I'm through my little collection.

Mine has been different than yours. Definitely not as stunted if you know what I mean. I have left my fan leaves up until the second week of flower which were absolutely massive, but other than that it's grown much taller. I'll keep watching this one

@NomNom, haha awesome! I’d bet it’s just a cool pheno for those looking to grow in super short quarters!

@stevieb21,Good to know I'll watch your growth. I tried giving more water, let it dry out more, feed less, feed more, more light, less light. Nothing made this girl grow bigger, she just likes to be short and stubby. I think it might just be an odd pheno type or something.

that's unfortunate, hopefully your sour jack will be ok!

It seems you drink too much .............. Give water once in 48 hours I let the soil dry and only then I give water EC -1.0 Good luck buddy
