5150 Triangle Kush x Bubba Kush 101 is Triangle Kush crossed to Bubba Kush. Triangle Kush is the Florida clone a lot of people credit with starting the OG line, named for the Jacksonville-Miami-Tampa triangle. Bubba Kush is the West Coast indica benchmark, a Los Angeles clone from the mid-1990s named after the grower who kept it. Between them they cover ground neither reaches alone. What CSI sell is access to their clone collection in seed form. The parents are the cuts themselves, not a line bred to resemble them.

Triangle Kush x Bubba Kush carries a 101 because selections get numbered to stay distinguishable once they leave the room they were made in. It marks this exact mother, and it is the part of the name worth reading closely.

Order matters in a cross name. In 5150 Triangle Kush x Bubba Kush 101 the Triangle Kush side supplied the seed and Bubba Kush the pollen, and the reciprocal - the same two plants the other way round - is a separate breeding decision with its own results.

Genetic Lineage

• Mother: Triangle Kush. The Florida clone often credited with giving OG Kush its origin, named for the triangle of Jacksonville, Miami and Tampa. Lighter on the pine and cleaner-fluid terpenes than its reputation suggests, which is why breeders pair it with louder cuts; Humboldt CSI's 5150 is their pick out of a large Triangle Kush S1 population.
• Father: Bubba Kush. The West Coast indica benchmark, a Los Angeles clone from the mid-1990s named after the grower who kept it. Dense colas need airflow; the Pre-98 cut is the shorter, broader-leafed, heavier expression.
• Why these two. They are not variations on the same idea. They pull in different directions, and that spread is what makes a pack worth hunting through rather than just growing.

Flavor and Aroma Profile

Two profiles that stay distinguishable rather than collapsing into one.

• The Aroma. Classic OG earth and pine, noticeably restrained rather than loud from the Triangle Kush side, against roasted coffee, dark cocoa and old-school hash with a woody edge from the Bubba Kush side.
• The Taste. Pine and earth carrying real OG weight, though it finishes cleaner than it opens up front, turning to spiced earth and coffee bean, finishing hashy and thick through the exhale.

What each side brings

• Timing. Triangle Kush runs eight to nine weeks, reported sixty-three to seventy-seven days with most growers near seventy, and that is the half of this cross you can actually plan around.
• Two noses, one pack. Triangle Kush contributes classic OG earth and pine, noticeably restrained rather than loud. Bubba Kush contributes roasted coffee, dark cocoa and old-school hash with a woody edge. Which dominates is the main thing that varies.
• Two frames in one pack. Triangle Kush is stocky and bushy at moderate indoor height, up to two metres outdoors; vegs vigorously and throws heavy foliage; takes trimming, defoliation and lollipopping well; dense bright green flower under heavy resin. Bubba Kush is short to medium and stocky, broad deep-green leaves, tight internodes, modest 1.2 to 1.5 times stretch; golf-ball to cola-sized buds with thick calyces and heavy resin, forest green through to plum. Decide which suits your room before you flip, because you get both.
• They pull differently. Growers put Triangle Kush at the potent, focused end of the OG family and Bubba Kush at gentle and unhurried, warm and loosening, body-forward. Which end a plant lands on is the main variable.

Cultivation and Growth Traits

• Plant Structure. The two parents disagree here, so plan for range. Triangle Kush is a big, leafy, vigorous grower - bushy indoors, capable of two metres outside - that responds to being worked: trim it, defoliate it, lollipop it, and the bright green flower underneath comes in dense and greasy. Bubba Kush is short to medium and stocky, broad deep-green leaves, tight internodes, modest 1.2 to 1.5 times stretch; golf-ball to cola-sized buds with thick calyces and heavy resin, forest green through to plum.
• Training. Worth the effort early - it is the difference between an even canopy and three colas and a lot of leaf.
• Flowering Time. Triangle Kush runs eight to nine weeks, reported sixty-three to seventy-seven days with most growers near seventy. Start checking trichomes a week before you expect to be ready.

Effects and Experience

• The Mind. Growers describe Triangle Kush as the potent, focused end of the OG family.
• The Body. Bubba Kush is reported as gentle and unhurried, warm and loosening, body-forward, and that is the side supplying the weight here.

In the pack

Feminized seeds from Humboldt CSI. Humboldt CSI are preservationists before they are breeders - most of what they release is a clone somebody has kept alive by hand for years, put into seed so it stops depending on one grower staying in the game. That is what you are buying into here. Authentic Humboldt CSI genetics.
