About Bubba Kush
A heavy indica with an unusual coffee-and-chocolate character, and disputed parentage.
Bubba Kush appeared in the 1990s. The OG Kush side is generally agreed; the second parent is not, with accounts pointing variously at an unnamed Northern Lights phenotype.
It is a short, stocky plant and one of the more distinctive aromas in the kush family.
