Origin
Bubblegum traces to a 1970s Indiana cross of an heirloom bubblegum plant with an unnamed indica, then years of stabilizing work in Amsterdam by TH Seeds. The exact parents were never disclosed. It has six descendants on file and stands as a foundational parent for candy-flavored strains. TH Seeds holds the record for the stabilized line.

About
Bubblegum genuinely smells of the candy it is named for.
It started in Indiana in the 1970s, went to Amsterdam to be stabilized and became TH Seeds' first commercial release in 1993. It has won four Cannabis Cups since. The exact indica parent was never named. It is also written Bubble Gum.
The nose is the whole pitch.
What to Expect
Bubblegum lifts the mood and turns creative before it settles into the couch. The reviewer data is thin, but creative and happy dominate the wider record, and sources describe a euphoric high that goes lazy and couch-locking over a couple of hours.
Only dry mouth and a sleepy quality are on the negative record, with nothing sharper flagged. Given how little data there is, a modest first dose is the sensible call. This is a night strain, not a working one.
Flavor and Aroma
Bubblegum is a sweet, fruity, floral smell with a clear pink-bubblegum note running through it. The flavor holds the sweet berry and the gum. It is one of the few strains that lives up to a candy name.
Terpenes Explained
Bubblegum has no terpene test in our data, with Caryophyllene, Linalool and Ocimene named and nothing measured.
That true bubblegum note is rare and sits in lighter compounds a standard panel does not report. A jar that actually smells of the candy, not just generic sweetness, is the genuine one.
Cannabinoids and Potency
Bubblegum THC is reported from about 15 to 19 percent, a moderate range, with the single lab sample in our data corrupted. CBD can reach just over one percent.
Bubblegum is a moderate strain sold on its flavor, so buy it for the candy nose rather than for any real punch.
