Get Mo - looking fire, brother. Let me know how you like the smoke. I did a 100 bean pheno hunt and have a killer female I'm going to use for future breeding projects. In honor of Covid, I've dubbed her "The Antidote".

Hi Katsu, I have a question to ask regarding 2 cuts I have ran both labeled Katsu, I was kinda wondering if you could perhaps shed light on to which cut is the one you passed around. I used to run Katsu or so I thought, and it was my favorite plant, best quality smoke i've ever seen in my life. Now I am aware quality is in the eye of the beholder so that is all I am stating, That for me it is the holy grail of cannabis and it gets no better....

Recently I re obtained what I thought was the Katsu I used to run. I just recently harvested and sampled it and in doing so I realized I have something different from what I used to have and run as Katsu after coming to the realization that what I have now isn't what I ran then. I am now curious which plant is the real Katsu cut which brings me here for answers.

Katsu A

A solid strong plant with excellent turgor pressure this thing will hold up the plant beside it. Solid from top to bottom and smells a bit like pre 98 bubba kush kinda coffee floral thing going on.

Katsu B

A floppy plant that grows well during veg but lacks turgor strength to support itself in the later weeks of flower, Smells of gas floral and candy notes. On inhale lights up your nasal cavity with a jet fuel note, and on exhale goes from honey like to pure candy and leaves the candy flavor in your mouth long after you puffed her.

I'm terrible at this and would hate for you to rely on my visual prowess to identify the correct plant. From the descriptions I would say plant A is way more likely to be the Katsu because I'm having a hard time imagining it being described as floppy, but some of the pictures of plant B definitely look Bubba-esque. If plant A is the Katsu you've done a hell of a job getting her to yield.

Yo katsu, do you use sts for your reversals? If so what recipe and spray schedule do you use?

I've used STS most of the time, but last reversal I tried Riot's Reversal spray (after I stained a counter purple with STS) and it worked great as well. I like to start the plant that is being reversed about 10 days or so before the females because I've found that it takes longer for reversed plants to dump pollen than a normal male and the timing seems to work out better. As far as recipe, I use countrymon's recipe that's posted everywhere - if you can't find it I have the recipe on my site in the blog section.

Saw on your site White S1’s are coming soon.. any idea when you’ll be releasing them?

That was a dark time in the Katsu garden - virus and mites pretty much ravaged that seed run and I had to back-burner the project - it all goes well there will be a big White reversal in 2021.

Good to hear everything is back on track. Looking forward to it :tiphat:

Hey Katsu, am I reading your right up right, 1 spray on day 1 that's it?
Was gonna ask if you dont mind if you could get an EC reading of your 1:9 solution. Mine came in at .5. Hoping to see if I'm on point.

so still no one knows anything about the 93 BUBBA KUSH ??..




any one ..:shucks::shucks:
we broke this all down at CC years ago w/Nspecta lol




it's a made up nickname for the original bubba kush cut that Nspecta and others hold. it's the oldest known cut of Bubba Kush, originating with Shabud, but it doesn't go back to 1993. It's the "original" pre98 cut, named by Archive Seedbank/Tha Docta and then Swerve subsequently 'stole' the pre98 moniker and attatched it to the cut he was passing around, which is the cut that gets the most purple and is usually cited as having the strongest coffee terps.








93 Bubba = Original Bubba Kush = also The original pre98 named by ThaDocta


pre98 Bubba = an S1 or something popularized by Swerve, the "purple" bubba


Katsu Bubba = a likely S1 of Original Bubba according to Nspecta




I just popped a couple Original Bubba S1's. Digging up some old Instagram posts from CSI, they say there's tons of better phenos in the S1's than the Katsu cut for example. I'm stoked to check these out.

Cannavore,

thank you brother and if that's all true I'm just looking for the bubba kush and nothing really special ?.

be smelling for coffee and some purple color mid/late flower, if not then it may be leaning towards the DD pheno.

will be making some f2's so others can get a look at her in there gardens as well.





thank you brother ..

I'm not trying to start any shit, but I'm pretty sure I sent Shabud the Bubba. He's still around and probably remembers better than me...

Fair enough, I guess I could have been a little better with the descriptions. Let me revise the above and see if this helps bring clarity.

Katsu A

A solid vigorous plant really strong turgor pressure even in the later weeks of flower. Woody stalks. Has a mutation and produces nugs from leaf stalks.

Here you can see the nug growing from the leaf stalk.

Katsu B

A solid plant grows well during veg and most of flower but lacks turgor pressure in the later weeks of flower and requires support. No mutations and turns almost black. Hollow stalks with a gassy/honey/candy terpene profile that is so strong I've never seen a true rivalry.

I'd really like to know the answer because I want to properly label the katsu cut and right now I have 2 both katsu but wildly different one is the best weed I've ever smoked the other is just a good bubba which is not even in my top 5 all time.

"The original Triangle Kush…straight from Florida, via Tha Docta (Archive Seed Bank), from Cornbread Ricky (Swamp boy Seeds)…a.k.a….The Original OG Kush before it ever became a California Celebrity…crossed to the original Bubba Kush from my boi Shabud (707 Seed Bank) who acquired the cut roundabout 2000 in SoCal…only a couple few years after Matt Burger & Josh D made the original Bubba Kush (Bubba x OG Kush) hybrid."

I'm telling you I just ran into Sha at an event last year and I'm pretty sure he told me I was the one that sent him the Bubba.
