Ripped Bubba Hermie

Is RB hermie prone?

Most of the TGA varieties I've grown have not been hermie prone, but I do have a Qrazy train phenotype that does hermie on me if the temperature swings too dramatically. Just keep your environment ideal and you should be fine.

This may or may not be any help. I have a cutting of BUBBAKUSH and it is supposply pretty old, it is the "ONLY" strain i have never seen hermi out, other right next to her will hermi , very stable for me

RB has male flower on main cola, 1/2 into flower. Vortex is fine.

Not too much info on the ripped bubba strain since it just came out not too long ago, so who knows. No way to say if it was genetics or just growing error really. What is your grow setup and temperature like? Vortex is obviously gonna be more stable since it has been out for a long time.

The pre-98 bubba kush cut has been bred with many times over and Space Dude has been proven over and over. I know that the BK can throw some mail stamen late in flower, but some strains just do that, ie. Trainwreck and OG Kush.

Every strain out there has the capacity/ability to go hermie. Whether or not its "prone to" is a matter of opinion at best.

We test all strains before going public

I have grown out most of our menu including RB & have had zero hermie issue with any TGA gear. I grow in & outside and have a few plants outside right now including Erkle, Kaboom & Qleaner with all looking perfect in temps running in the mid 50's with a frost the other night as well

Poor growing conditions contribute to plants herming, can you give us more info on your set up?

Can't wait to see some pictures of tht Qleaner. . .what strain do you recommend for outdo if you want to grow a TGA tree, I'm thinking Jacks Cleaner, or Qleaner.

Most of genetic testing that is done it today's market is done under the assumption that the grower will at least provide "ideal" environmental parameters. Cannabis is a very adaptive plant and can withstand some rather harsh treatments, and still not express its stresses sexually. The catch is a invincible threshold that can only be known through trial and error.

I enjoy the pleasure of growing four tga strains pretty much year round. For me, Qrazy Train, Cheese Quake, Plushberry, and Ripped Bubba are absolute staples. I've also enjoyed success using 3D, Jacks Cleaner, and Chernobyl. I've grown lbs and lbs of tga gear and never had a single nanner in my experiences.

I just finished a Ripped Bubba grow in the last couple of weeks.
I made some mistakes, stressed them a bit, and over fed them.
That being said, I saw very few nanners, and that was only when I let them go too long.
There are some winners in the Ripped Bubba gene pool for sure.

Here's my favorite phenotype from my 20 seed Ripped Bubba pheno hunt.
She has a pleasant floral scent, with an interesting, but enjoyable, floral flavor as well (after a 2 week cure).
The reason she's the standout in my book though, is because of her long lasting, well balanced stone/high.
She helps melt my aches and pains away, but without knocking me out, all while putting me in a good mood.
This girl has got to be swinging at about a 1% CBD level, I can always feel the difference the CBD makes, and my older crops were sadly missing that.

In my experience, Ripped Bubba is hermie prone. I've grown six or seven TGA strains and Ripped Bubba is the only one that's hermed on me. That said, the females that didn't herm on me produced some of the best looking and tastiest nugs that I've ever grown.
