Black Bubba

Black Bubba, not to be confused with “Bubba Black,” is an indica-dominant hybrid strain. The cultivar crosses Bubba Kush and Black Russia genetics, produced by Northern California growers CSI: Humbold. Black Bubba’s THC levels range from 8.5% to 24%, making it moderate to intensely potent.

Most users report a sweet aroma with notes of fruit, coffee, and earthiness marked by the strain’s unique terpene blend. Black Bubba’s cannabinoid and terpene profile deliver a delicious, calming, sedative experience.
