Bubba Fett

Bubba Fett or Indica-Dominant Hybrid (approx. 70/30) is a strain that typically contains THC levels between 22% – 29% (High Potency) and CBD levels ranging from < 1% (Often 0.1% – 0.5%). Known for its Heavy Indica / Sedative / Couch-lock profile, this strain has a growth expectation of being Medium (30–50 inches); stocky/bushy in height, with a nutrient demand that is Moderate; sensitive to overfeeding (Nitrogen).

This Indica-Dominant Hybrid (approx. 70/30) is of the Genetype: Pre-98 Bubba Kush x Stardawg. The Bubba Fett strain has 3 phases of the growing cycle.

The first phase is the Seedling Phase. Once you have decided to grow Bubba Fett in either soil or hydroponiclay, the ph levels need to be monitored. The ph level desired by Indica-Dominant Hybrid (approx. 70/30) is 6.2 – 6.8 and 5.5 – 6.1 hydroponically. During this infancy stage, Bubba Fett needs to maintain a target temperature of 75°F – 80°F (24°C – 27°C) for 2 to 3 weeks. Once the seed germinates, it will sprout it's first set of round leaves, or the cotyledons. If you are able to maintain the target humidity of 60% – 70%, the iconic serrated leaves will just begin to show themselves. During this critical Phase 1 of the Indica-Dominant Hybrid (approx. 70/30) growing cycle the plant is establishing a strong root sytem. Beginners often over water these fragile seedlings. Do not drown your seeds. You seedling Bubba Fett needs care and gentle light. The recommended light cycle for growing Bubba Fett is 18/6 or 24/0 for the first cycle, which should last .

The next is the Vegetative Phase. The Bubba Fett will focus entirely on size and structural integity. The temperature needs also change for phase 2. If a target temperature of 72°F – 78°F (22°C – 26°C) is maintained and a target humidity of 50% – 55% is achieved, the Indica-Dominant Hybrid (approx. 70/30) will grow stems, branches and plenty of large fan leaves. This Pre-98 Bubba Kush x Stardawg is trying to build it's own solar panel of leaves to absorb energy. It is critical to maintain a proper light cycle of 12/12 for the entire phase 2 schedule. This consistent energy will help plant grow bigger without producing flowers, focusing it's energy on growing tall and strong. Bubba Fett is at it's most resilient and may grow quickly. As phase 2 comes to an end, it may be topped or tied down, as it's training suitability is considered High; responds well to Topping and LST.

The most exciting phase, when growing Pre-98 Bubba Kush x Stardawg is the Flowering Phase. The plants adulthood lasts . It is at this phase that the light cycle changes for the last time. Bubba Fett will produce the most flowers when the light cycle is 12/12. Keep the temperature and humity controlled at 68°F – 74°F (20°C – 23°C) and 40% – 45% (Critical for bud rot prevention) so you can really watch this plant strecth and almost double in height. It will want to start producing early into the flowering process.

You will know the Bubba Fett is ready when the white hairs (pistils) turn amber/brown and the resin glands (trichomes) look milky or cloudy, rather than clear. Cutting the plant down even a week too early can significantly reduce the potency and weight of your harvest. Patience in the flowering phase will provide the best possible outomce of Indica-Dominant Hybrid (approx. 70/30) with a desired gorwth profile that will be:
Lateral branching; significant resin production

Growers Notes: Hobby Grower’s Notes
Microclimate Alert: Because Bubba Fett produces incredibly dense, heart-shaped colas, it is prone to Botrytis (Bud Rot) if humidity spikes in late flower. Ensure you have high-volume oscillating fans and keep late-stage humidity strictly below 45%.

The "Stretch": Expect a moderate stretch (1.5x to 2x) once flipped to 12/12. If growing in a tent, ensure you have at least 18 inches of clearance from your light source at peak height.

Defoliation: Due to its Kush heritage, it grows very broad "fan leaves" that can shade lower nodes. Perform a heavy defoliation in Week 3 of flower to ensure light penetration and airflow.

Aroma Management: This is a "loud" strain. The Stardawg genetics bring a heavy diesel/skunk funk that will easily bypass cheap carbon filters. Check your seals!

Harvest Window: For maximum sedation (couch-lock), wait for 15-20% amber trichomes, usually around day 60–65 of flowering.
