The Bubblegum Poll...

[The Phoenix]

Yeah Baba Ku,

If it's flavor your after, then BOG's line of Bubblegums are definately what you seek.

Take Blue Moon Rocks for example. It's like lighting up a bowl of pure sugar. Not a devistating high like Sour Bubble, but if it's extreme sweet Bubblegum you seek, then look no further. Cash crop yields from BMR are possible also.

Then you have Bogglegum, with its true Grape Bubblegum pheno's and the NL5 qualities. Yummmy

But if it's devistation you seek, then Sour Bubble will definately give you the flavors you seek and the quality high also. And yes, there are Bubba Kush pheno's in Sour Bubble, especially in the BX4 generation compared to the previous BX's. Sour Bubble can plant you in your chair seemingly unable to move, yet your mind is fully functional.

If anyone dosn't think that BOG has the goods, and the connections for quality crosses, then think again!

I bought a pack of bogglegum back in May. I just ordered two more packs.

 

[Jim Rockford]

Bogglegum, not a bad seed in the pack for me

 

[apep]

Had 1 female out of 9 from TH seeds that had the bubblegum smell. Used to love opening the door when the lights came on, the smell over powered my other strains. Super bubblegummy. The cuts grew like monsters, good yielder. Had a hard time fittin them in my space with my shorter afgahnis, so I let her go. What a mistake.

Hey Phoenix...

Not sure if you are getting the feeling that I am judging BOG's strains lacking in any respect, I'm definitely not.

I now wish that I had named the poll differently, not THE bubblegum poll, just A bubblegum poll. I want to use the most stable strains out there, and these are generally identified with the tag IBL. I only encountered the 2 companies in the poll as having IBL versions. The poll is really only trying to find that narrow piece of information, but that piece is important to me.

After continuing to read up on BG, I was checking out BOG's catalog, and I am seriously considering purchasing a pack of either his BogBubble or Bogglegum, can't decide which. Along with either a THSeeds or Serious pack too.

 

[fabvariousk]

Wow some cool bubblegum info on this thread.
How again is bogglebubble not an ibl?
Wiggs understand BOG has been inbreeding the most bubblegum smelling plants in the world for the last ten years. I don't think thseeds or serious would claim that there bubblegum lines are more stable in terms of the smell.
You can easily find a seven week pheno that will be as good as anything in the world.
Not knocking anyones bubblegum. It is the difference between Sensi Jack Herer and Bros Grimm C99. if that makes sense.

 

[killa-bud]

imo stay away from the serious doublegum

i found a pheno with a bubblegumish undertone...but really a disappointing smoke and "ugly" growth patterns

Hey Wiggs.
I've grown all 3 strains, and used them for breeding also. I like Serious slightly better than THS, but BOG's Bubblegums stood out for me as you probably could tell. We were growing BogBubble back in 2005 quite extensively before my brother turned Christian and scrapped all our projects. Probably 100,000 seeds went in the dumpster.

Then BOG left the business and I had to start over again. This time we concentrated on Sour Bubble though because it was far superior to any of the Bubblegums we had in the past for breeding and medicinal use. The sour lime Bubblegum is killer and is BX4, so it's close to an IBL.

 

[TGT]

I've grown FMS Bubblegummer, and I found the smell

=K

Do you mean Full Moon Seeds,because I have a pack and asked a question a while ago.

Nothing wrong with being on a smell hunt. I can't understand why you think doing so is a waste of time. I started this thread to gather information for myself, not for you. If anybody else can benefit from the info this thread gathers, that is even better. I know from reading and searching on these boards a good many others want info on this subject.

And I am now convinced that you don't really know what an IBL is...your statement above about Northern Lights illustrates this perfectly.

Where did I say that searching for smell was a waste of time? Didn't I go into detail about the smell search and my thoughts on it? DI d my thoughts say anything about a waste of time?

Yes you started this thread for you, but in an open forum that the membership participates in. And yes, you can gather info from it, as well as others can learn from the material the thread provides, including dissenting opinions and information.

Sure a good many others want info on this issue, but most will at least have an idea of who the popular BG vendors are. And hey, it looks like you learned a thing or two so far in that category. No?

And you continue to scold me and saying that I don't understand what an IBL is. Well, I full well do, and it amazes me the stance you are taking. Just what the hell do you think I am missing here?
You say my thoughts on the NL was enough to show you I don't know what I am talking about, well then I suggest you explain that in detail. Show us in detail how I am screwed up, and then go into detail to straighten me out on the topic. Get it out in the open so folks understand just how I am screwed up here.
That would also help to show your superior understanding of this issue. Hell, I am ready to learn what you've got to teach me.
Or...perhaps you could stand to learn a thing or two....

Growdoc Mx - Bubblegum smell

Growdoc Mx - Bubblegum smell

Hello, i am very much a novice, and i have always thought that the exotic and distinct flavours that people described were excaturated or just invented in their minds, as i thought that weeds were just weeds that albeit smelled good, just smelled a bit different from each other.
I grew some 'growdoc mix' and i was smelling one of the plants and i thought 'that smells sweet', and i couldn't put my finger on what it was, then the thought of bubble gum came to mind, i think it smelled like bubble gum.
Then i realised that some of the growdoc's mix' are bubblegum crosses.

I don't know which 'brand' of bubblegum he uses though.
I don't know if that will help anyone but i just thought i'd share the story.

 

[Raco]

Nice one Raco, but its all hear-say mate

Tom was there...you were NOT

 

[Scrogerman]

Tom was there...you were NOT

I have lived in Holland, i doubt Tom has(but dont care either way) & i was there in 91 mate, & dont believe everything Tom is saying anyway, its hear-say in his own admission imo, a guy told me that he said, now things can get mixed up for sure. why would adam from TH say all that BS about his own strain anyway, maybe he didnt want the guy to catch the scent, i dont know, but it still doesnt prove anything, why? just cause Tom said so. No offence bro but i can believe what i like!
Tot-Ziens!

 

[Raco]

And what do you think about Nevil´s claim?

 

[Scrogerman]

And what do you think about Nevil´s claim?

who's to say who actually said what! to me its hear-say see, ok i believe you!
Peace Brotha! Bogglegum is a low odor growing strain is it not? that would tip the balance for me, as long as the final product is stellar! im gonna buy a pack asap! growdoc's bubbledust is in the running too, just because i like his gear! hear great things about the BD!

In a clandestine society, things are always to be taken on the light. So often things will be said and passed around that are far from the truth of things. This may be due to dubious intentions or may be a result of simple ignorance.
Hell, there is mystique involved with the very existence of most involved in the canna community. Not hard to imagine that our words can be even more elusive from the truth, for whatever reason.
Once both sides understand this better, it tends to quell the arguments a bit.


Back to BG...you know, BG is a great high and it seems that most all of them carry a similar happy euphoric type buzz. So, no matter how it turns out it is a great medicinal grade recreational cannabis.
Thing about it is...if you show a non-growing pal a fat sack and don't tell him what it is, he will probably be all over it and absolutely love everything about the appearance, feel, smell, and he will love the smoke. The dense buds are especially appealing in the sack.
But...tell him it's bubblegum before he sees it, and if it does not have that classic bazooka smell to it at first huff, he will be somewhat turned off by it. I have seen it time and time again. Not nearly excited as he would have been if he wasn't expecting some hype to pleasure his nostrils.

Hmmm....that would be an example of me withholding the whole truth of things, not for dubious intentions, but to help the experience of my pal.

A Moment of truth. Bubblegum: Adams CIA 94/95. Fellow from Indiana hanging with Adam & slinging the "last of his bubblegum stock" at $60 a seed while Adam was multiplying this decent indica downstairs (which looks absolutely nothing like what it does today- from any bank). "Bagseed from Cali" is where he got it in another moment of truth from the guy. The kids at the Grey area were coating their baggies with bubblegum to make it smell just so, leaving a pink sugary substance on the baggies (yeah clowns, I remember). You have folk that run to claim the rights to bringing shit across the pond but in almost every single instance, it was a friggen joke (with the exception of Haze) - mostly low grade Mexican crosses.

Im sure im reading this out of context, but it seems like he is saying that indiana bubblegum is no longer around. Tragically its been a few years since ive smoked some, but im pretty sure its still kicking around the Hoosier state. Maybe hes talking about the seedform or availability in Europe.

NL would be another example of differing terpine expressions in a very IBL. Some NL will have a wonderful fruity aroma that rivals that of a strong BG, whiles it's siblings can carry an almost nil terpine expression, and have almost no aroma at all. Barely even detect it is something green and growing.

Baba-

The line in italics says that Northern Lights is an inbred line. You are equating a widely worked strain as an IBL. Your following sentence describes the wide variety of expression that can be found within the strain NL. Wide variety of expression is the ANTITHESIS of an IBL.

IBL's are all about stability, not variation. If you wanted to speak about Northern Lights as an IBL, you would need to speak about a certain breeders particular line, and then you would be able to demonstrate the stability that line is known for. To get that stability requires a large amount of work, very time-consuming, and most breeders don't go to that length.

Not trying to win a contest, I just seriously think you are operating with less than accurate information. And, I don't consider myself an expert by any means, just have been reading this stuff the last few days, and this is what the board has taught me. If I am wrong, I do wish somebody would instruct me as to why, because I don't want to be operating with less than accurate info.

Peace...

 

[Hold Your Fire]

imo stay away from the serious doublegum

Double Gum is White Label not Serious Seeds.

I'm growing Bogglegum, right now, wish I had Serious BG to compare to.

 

[EddieShoestring]

Serious-smelled like Bubblegum.
