Are they both cannabis? Yes. This is too funny with the potential to get hilarious ... Please continue
just becuase two strains may taste similar doesn't mean they share they same liniage. things like myrcen, limonene, caryophyllene, pinene, terpineol, borneol, delta s-carene, linalool, pulegone, and 1,8 cineole effect flavor and every bud contains different amount of each which attribute to flavor. it's possible that the chemical make up of both strains is very similar, but parentage is totally different.
confused more than ever, but i enjoyed reading your post. I agree the cannabinoid profile is a factor.
bubba and chemd have nothing in common.
except they both have kush in them???
OG Kush is a super-potent variety of medical-grade Cannabis with very distinct aroma, appearance and long-lasting psychoactive and physiological effects. OG Kush is a mostly Cannabis Sativa hybrid, clone-only cultivar found widely in Greater Los Angeles (Los Angeles, Orange and Ventura Counties), California, USA. The species is rumored to be another name for the legendary Chemdog (a.k.a. "Chemdawg" or "Chem") cultivar of Colorado/Wyoming, USA. In this widespread rumor, a 'cutting' (clone) of the "'91 Chemdog" made its way to Lake Tahoe, California early in the 1990's and that OG Kush is an 'S1' (1st generation offspring of a self-pollinated hermaphrodite) of this crop but it is only privately available in clone form and not in seed. Although not a "Kush," OG Kush does possess some Indica (Cannabis Sativa, Supspecies Indica) traits and it is rumored that it may have some Kush bred in its genetic heritage. However, it is mostly a Sativa in both phenotype and psychoactive effects when consumed. Some have described its effects as both cerebrally and physically stimulating and it's smell as "lemony pine-sol." The mature flowers usually appear as large and dense, lime-green clusters covered with copious amounts of "white" resin. It has sold on average for $75.00 USD for 1/8 ounce in most areas of Greater Los Angeles in 2007/2008.
I'm no expert, but I have read on this site that:
Bubba Kush is (West Coast Dog x Old World Kush) x OGKush
West Coast Dog is a Chemdog BX3 using a Humbolt Co. indica male
OG Kush = Ocean Grown Kush = Chem Dog x "Secret Ingredient" male (Lemon Thai x Old World Paki Kush)
So, if true, that would imply that there is a genetic connection.
That is one of the most preposterous things I've ever heard.
pre98 bubba used a chemdawg back cross, thats all i need to know. guess ill continue getting shunned by 'expert commercial' grower on this site because of their superior knowledge of bubba kush and chemdawg strains. yeah right.

Yes4Prop215 i have seen alot of bubba and chemdawg they dont look that alike...they share similar taste qualities but they are still very different. most bubbas i see are a darker color with rich coffee like taste with hints of sour. and chems are usually lighter green with the sour fuely taste.

mean mr.mustard If you're one of the "we crawled out of the ocean and turned into monkeys" crowd, then I'd say yes... they are related... but no more than you and I.

cosmicparticle IamNug- hey brother im curious to know what kinda smells exactly your gettin off the BUBBA and the CHEM you got, because although i have not grown chem or bubba i have sampled them both many times and i have just finished up with a OGK(A)xOGK(SFV) cross from Kriptonite, and i have to say i do not see the similarities.
the Bubba Kush i have sampled was green and purple, and tasted like spicy coffee, the taste was not very refined, earthy and bland like an afghani ..to be honest, i don't really care for it.
the Chemdog i tried was way more potent than the bubba, it reeked of pine and fuel, and catpiss. the stone was out this world, and i can barely do anything after smoking it
the AbusivexSFV was very very much like the Chemdog i tried in smell and taste, it reeked of lemons/pine/perfume/and even catpiss too...alot of catpiss actualy in...its the kinda bud that makes you pull back immedeatly after you take a wiff...and you don't need to break it up to smell it...actualy if a bud is out in the open you cant escape it and you cant smell anything else.
this is my humble opinion bro...i would bet too much that they are related, but then i don't know anything about genetics, i can only judge from my nose and tongue
thats why i ask you again what smells exactly are you getting, cause you can tell from my descriptions they don't taste smell similar at all...the OG however clearly is related to the CHEMDOG.
BubbaK does smell funky and all but its just not on the level of the CHEM and OG i dont think anything is except the ecsd, and its been a minute since i hit that. my 2cents
Peace,
