CanniCorner: Short Bus Bubba (Bubba Kush)

AROMA: There is a relatively pungent Bubba scent to this strain from my jar, with a sour twist to it (in a good way). It's an interestingly smelling Bubba Kush, because it has the classic Bubba smell with a unique twist to it. Once nugs are ground up the sour smell because a little more apparent, but there is still that strong Bubba scent.

TASTE: I was honestly expecting a bit thicker smoke, but what I got was nothing to complain about. There is a very earthy flavor to this, as there is with most Bubba kushes, but this was has a particularly intense earthiness to it. The sourness from the scent becomes apparent in the flavor, especially in the sinuses, with the Bubba flavor taking a backseat. It's an interestingly tasting Bubba Kush, that's for sure.

LOOK: The nug structure of this strain reminds me of Pre '98 Bubba Kush. The nugs have good structure, are manicured fairly well, but are surprisingly dense. The nugs look a bit airy in comparison to how dense they actually are. The trichomes cover the majority of the nugs, though the structure of them varies throughout. There are trich caps in a lot of places, but not everywhere. The caps that are there are bulbous and clear though.

EFFECTS: This is a definite creeper strain that takes awhile to hit, but when it does...wow. It's probably one of the heavier indica Bubbas I've had in awhile, and maybe one of the heavier indicas period. The gradual onset becomes a rather intense body high, and a very heavy couch lock. There's slight pressure around the head, around the back of the neck, and right on top of the eyes. This is definitely not a first bowl of the day strain, even if you have the day off. The intensity, surprisingly, wears off slowly leaving one feeling very relaxed as the high plateaus. Good for pain relief, relaxation, sleep aid, and appetite gain. Great nighttime strain.

Evergreen Collective is brand new, and still getting things going. The Short Bus was the first strain I tried of theirs, and it kept me medicated (first smoke of the day) for longer than expected. It's great to see a new collective coming out with good meds, and friendly staff. I chatted with them for awhile, and left feeling good about the place. After trying this Short Bus I'm glad I stopped by.
