Kirsten I grew my first Bubble Kush plant last year, I am just coming to the end of what I harvested from her.
I have been using this almost exclusively since!
It's so good for my anxiety and stress. A few large tokes from a joint are enough to feel all of the worries melt away.
It's very relaxing, uplifting, and honestly meditative. Relieves my muscle tension and any intrusive thoughts.
This is my favourite strain. I have only one seed left after this and I'm really looking after it.
Absolutely can't wait to see this plant produce the same gorgeous buds, terp-loaded with that Pinene and Mycrene!
I used the following substrate and dry amendments per 5 Gallon/19 L pot;
𧑠60% Canna Terra Soil Mix
𧑠30% Perlite
𧑠10% Worm Castings (5 Cups)
Dry Amendments
π 7.5 TBSP Ecothrive Life Cycle
π 5 TBSP Ecothrive Charge
π 1/2 Cup Diatomaceous Earth
π 1/2 Cup Ground Cinnamon
π Sprinkle of Great White Mycorrhizal Fungi blend
7.7.25:
So I planted the seed directly into the soil and watered it in with un PH'D warm water with Ecothrive Biosys.
Once something else occurs, I'll be back to report on it!
13.7.25:
Well unfortunately there is something to report.
The seed never sprouted, so I dug it up, it hadn't popped so I placed it in a damp paper towel to see what happens. If she does come up, I will make room for her.
The seed I just planted was my last one.
I really don't like soil mix. I mixed in 3/4 ltr Canna Coco, and 1/2 ltr of Perlite and worked it in to the very top layer of soil. So the seed is in only the Coco / Perlite to start off with.
Let's see how she goes! π€
Thanks as always for following along with the grows ππππ±π€π

Kirsten We have a seedling π±
Just saying, this is my new baby.
I'm going to really try and look after her.
I will be moving her to an 8 Gallon pot, so I can make the most of my last seed.
I did remove the shell as the RH is relatively low and it was stuck on pretty well. I used a sterile pin to accomplish this. Later I noticed the membrane was still on, so I removed this as well, so now the cotelydon leaves are free! π±ππ
I've just been keeping the seed moist with frequency over quantity.

Kirsten This week I transferred the Bubble Kush to her new pot! π
I had to get rid of the soil I was using, it just wasn't working. Apparently I just dont jive or vibe with soil! π
She is now in her final home 8 gallon pot made up of the following;
SUBSTRATE:
𧑠Canna Coco
𧑠Perlite
𧑠Worm Castings
+
ORGANIC DRY AMENDMENTS:
π Ecothrive Charge
π Ecothrive Life Cycle
π Great White Mycorrhizal Fungi Blend
π Diatomaceous Earth
π Ground Cinnamon
I watered the plant in with 1ltr of dechlorinated water PH'D to 6.4 with Ecothrive Biosys and Ecothrive Trace.
I watered again at the end of this week. With the same nutrition solution as above.
The plants are very needy just now as its so hot. I'm very pleased she's in the new substrate and pot. I want the 8 gallon because this strain is my favourite, and I'd love to get her as big as possible as it was my last seed π so fingers crossed!
Thanks for checking in this week and hanging out in the comments as always!

Kirsten Bubble Kush is looking good. Hopefully, we are going to see some nice growth in the next week or 2.
I've just been keeping the medium, not bone dry, but there were some fungus gnats.
So I have let it dry out more than I usually would probably because I wanted to sprinkle some Diatomaceous Earth on the soil, and it only works once the soil is dry.
Once the Diatomaceous Earth gets wet, it is no longer effective against insects.
Other than that, the plant is looking really good. She seems to be enjoying the new 8 gallon container.
I'm watering around the perimeter of the pot.
Predominantly, to encourage the roots to grow into the pot. Also, to activate the soil and The Dry amendments.
31.7.25:
I watered with 0.5ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.0 with;
π 1ml Trace
PH: 6.0
PPM: 387
3.8.25:
I watered with 0.5ltrs of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.2 with;

4.8.25:
I watered with 1L of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.6, containing the following nutrients;
π 1ml Ecothrive Trace
π 1/4 TSP Ecothrive Biosys

PPM: 385

Kirsten Bubble Kush is progressing very slowly.
I have noticed that the plant produced 2, 5 finger leaves, but the next set were only 3 fingers, now 5 finger leaves again. I find this to be peculiar.
As this is my last seed, I really don't want to mess this one up.

Kirsten Bubble Kush.
This week, I FIM'ED the plant on 18.8.25. However, the new growth doesn't seem to show any more tops. I'm not sure what I've done there. but regardless, I will have to wait and see.
Other than that, everything is fine, and I'm happy with the progress this week.
The plant is still a nice, healthy green colour, and after I FIM'ED the plant, there was quite a lot of new growth.
20.8.25:
I watered with 2L of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.0 with;
π 2ml Trace
PH: 6.0
PPM: 340
The soil is still drying out due to fungus gnats appearing. I am getting some sticky traps, just waiting for tgem to arrive. There are so many, and it's definitely come from the soil. I am never using this again.

Kirsten Bubble Kush has started early flower, and unfortunately showing signs of Nitrogen excess.
I am just watering with Trace and Biosys from now until mid flower. I will reassess at that time to see what's needed.
I did not water this week. I will let her dry out properly before I do.

Kirsten Bubble Kush and her training were not going very well. This week, basically I fimmed the plant last week. And it had just grown straight upwards, and that's not what I really wanted.
Due to that, I have decided to super crop the main stem again. Like I did with my Acapulco Gold and that worked really well. It just went absolutely crazy after I did that. So I'm hoping that it'll do the same thing with my precious Bubble Kush.
She is my last seed, and I really wanna try and make the most out of her so with that in mind, I super cropped her. She's doing really well and I'm so glad that I did.
Here is what I did this week.
Date of super crop: 11.9.25.
12.9.25:
I watered with 4L of dechlorinated water PH'd to 6.5 with;
π 4ml Flourish
PH: 6.5
PPM: 308
The fungus gnats have really incresed since I did a watering of the whole tent.
I have some more sticky traps set out, and I will not water for several days.
Once it has dried the top soil, I will add some more Diatomaceous Earth to the top 5cm.
They are beginning to really annoy me. So lets hope I can get them under control here.
I'm excited to see how she takes to the super crop, next couple of weeks should be fun π
Thanks for stopping by this week and hanging out in the comments! πππ±βοΈπ§‘π€
@Sour_D, It really is, I should have planted sooner. Unfortunately I'm certainly going to run out before this one is anywhere near done. I'll stop being so picky and smoke one of my other plants π πβοΈ
Next time you water her, maybe do a circle perimeter around the outside of the pot that way there, the roots have to go searching for it... Also sometimes overwatering will bring out yellowing . . You said that she looks a little funky. I guess you're basing that off of it, the yellowing which is typically from light stress or overwatering... And especially, you starting off in such a big pot
Next time, like I said I would go around the outside that way there you're not going to overwater because you're not watering her directly, and you're making her roots stretch out to find the water... bigger roots bigger fruits =)
@Aeromatics, thank you very much, indeed! π if you are interested in this particular strain, I have another diary that was my first time growing bubble kush. It is my favourite strain and I can recommend 10/10 ππβοΈππ
