Double Gum in detail

Origin & classification

With Double Gum from SwissSeeds, the focus is less on a precise lineage than on its suitability for garden cultivation. The continuous source describes a vigorous, rather large plant that can grow even at altitudes of up to approximately 1,200 meters. A reliable parent combination is not provided. Although the English summary generally refers to classic Bubble Gum lines, this information is not supported by a specific cross or a traceable breeding history.

Aroma & flavor

Thick, large leaves are said to be characteristic. Toward the end of flowering, a substantial portion of the foliage turns yellow, while the flowers are described as cream-colored. The German-language source considers its aroma subtle and pleasant. This differs from the English short description, which mentions a pronounced sweet candy aroma, strong resin production and compact growth. Due to these discrepancies, the public profile should remain focused on the more extensively documented, restrained characteristics.

Terpene profile

Sowing is specified for April or May. One option is to start the plants in pots from the end of April and transplant them into the ground in mid-May; alternatively, the source mentions direct sowing between the 10th and the end of May. Germination is said to take approximately four to ten days at temperatures from 20 degrees Celsius. Garden soil or well-drained soil is recommended for seedlings. These guidelines are regional benchmarks and do not guarantee identical development times at every location.

Effect tendency

According to the description, Double Gum can be placed in direct sunlight or partial shade. Due to its size, two to three square meters of space per plant are estimated. Once the plants have reached approximately 20 centimeters, the source mentions nitrogen-focused feeding; at the end of June, a complete liquid fertilizer for flowering is recommended. Such information comes from the specific SwissSeeds profile and should not be understood as a general scheme for every cultivation environment.

Cannabinoids, flowering & appearance

Only the ninth month, September, is given as the flowering period. This indicates a seasonal window, not a number of flowering days. Reliable information on effects, cannabinoids or terpenes is unavailable. The THC range of 15 to 20 percent mentioned in English is also not substantiated in the strain data and is therefore not adopted as a fixed characteristic. Based on the reliable source, Double Gum can primarily be portrayed as a large-growing, altitude-tolerant garden plant with cream-colored flowers, large leaves and a subtle aroma.
