In 1999 a couple brought bubba kush to Houston from LA and it was the best strain in Cali, very low yields. It was YEARS later before people started talking about bubba being purple, so we started calling the coffee smelling cut, pre 98. If the pre 98 originated from Florida strains it wouldn't surprise me, but the pre 98 is a classic, the real bubba. Florida and the south are very underground with not much open clone trading going on. We only have a few versions of bubba, but about 100 versions of sour d.
