Bubble Gum

Hybrid 50/50 — THC 13–19%

Bubble Gum, also known as “ Bubblegum,” is an evenly balanced hybrid (50% indica/50% sativa) strain created through crossing the infamous Indiana BubbeGum X an unknown hybrid strain. Like its name suggests, Bubble Gum has a very delicious mouth-watering flavor that is very much like a sweet fruity piece of classic bubblegum!

The aroma is very much the same, although it takes a slightly creamy turn as the nugs are broken apart with just a touch of pungency.

Colombian Gold

Sativa 25/75 — THC 17–21%

Colombian Gold is some seriously old-school marijuana. A close relative of the even more famous Acapulco Gold, this strain was born in the Santa Marta mountains of Colombia and exploded across the United States in the 1960s.

Its popularity has since faded dramatically, but it remains an effective tool for treating muscle spasms and chronic pain.
