3 packs of Bogbubble? Expect great germination with good growth but understand that they root fast and eat lots of nitrogen in veg. Not as easy to master as Bogglegum but when flowering sets in they really take off well. Lotta bud for the size tree. I advise you try topping some and leaving some alone to see how they turn out for you in your set up. Some find them branchy but lower branches yeild nice fat chewy buds so leave all but the little sucker branches on. I feel yields are increased by topping once but make certain you veg two weeks in veg after topping to make it worth while.
give them room to root and they will love ya and you will be hooked by their virgin charms so sweet. BOG

well i bought 2 packs in my first order about a month ago and sent in another order for a outdoor grow and figured id order another pack of bogglegum for shits and giggles.i gave the third pack to a old friend.well i have had 100%germination rates and seedlings are true to your words.i will try to top some and leave others alone.is there a point of toppin that u have found good results in....for example the 3rd node or mabey 7th node?i have seen the pics of your freak bogglegum plants and would like to get similar results.i usually never top the plants, i basicly have been playin with genetics from different breeders for a while and just flower at point where the plant true charecteristics come out in flowering.ill grow a group of plants ,flower then select the parents and then produce my own hybrids.but i wanna grow these bogglegum just for yeild and not cross it with anything for now.....this plant by the reading i have done seems to be perfect already. any advise will be appreciated.thank u

i meant bogbubble in last post....... my bad i am growing bogbubble lol

But, just don't top them as I agree with your reasoning. Bogbubble is an indica and it really doesn't need training. It needs love, light and nutrition. First look at this untopped Bogbubble then the Giant Bogglegum I never trained or topped.

Well late in veg I took one clone but it didn't change this plants structure. BOG

Bogbubble...

Bogglegum...she's a bush...

i am assuming that those were grown indoors.now my question is how long did u veg those beauties and what was the stretch like in flowering?and also since the root structure seems to the dictating factor in the massive flower developement ,a plant that size is grown in what size container?is rootbound a issue i need to pay more attension to with these plants vs say most other cannabis strains?

massass, you are quite correct in assuming the giant pic in the last photo didnt grow in a 16 oz dixie cup.

It was fully rooted in a 10 gallon pot and it had 3 transplants. But, that Giant Bogglegum is the biggest indoor soil grown plant not in a greenhouse I have ever grown or seen for that matter.

I vegged her at least 10 weeks as she was a clone mom before finished to flower. She may yield over 10 oz!

But, usually I do my 2 transplant method for plants to yield around 4 oz. I veg a couple weeks in cups under floro then transplant to 2 gallon pots and get some MH lighting and then grow big in veg and take to flower when 3-4 ft tall. I wait until sexed to do a last transplant into a 4 gallon pot and it roots in flower. This unrestricted rooting in flowering is a big reason my shit yields well and I have never made this a secret that yields are mainly dependent on genetics and root mass if given sufficient light and a little co2. BOG

Here is the same Bogglegum clone done normal...it yielded 5.5 oz and flowered only 47 days.
