Edam Bomb

Sitting comfortably as one of the most popular strains available in recent years, Cheese has earned itself legions of fans with its unique taste and character. Thankfully Bomb Seeds were too enterprising to let such a strain simply be, taking a Cheese clone sourced from the UK and breeding it with Bomb #1 and Bomb #3. The result of this was Edam Bomb, a new kid in town that kept everything that was loved about Cheese but with added yield and even more potency.

This may sound like a Cheese enthusiast’s dream come true, and it certainly is. Such strains don’t need much promotion to convince people to get on board. Just inhale deeply, taste the smoke on the way out and enjoy the ride.

Strength

Edam Bomb

Imagine smoking a typical Cheese strain, make it deeper and stronger – and you now have Edam Bomb. The strain is a lot more evenly balanced than most others, with its 60:40 indica/sativa split blending a pleasant stone with an uplifting and mood enhancing euphoria. This provides an all-over highly relaxing sensation, the bodily effects of which you will feel for hours.

At 10%-15% THC, Edam Bomb will deliver a moderately strong hit, but the mix of cerebral hit and physical stone is the real treat here. The interplay between these two components makes for quite the ride, providing a smoking experience that feels like it is soothing the body and mind at once in separate but complementary ways.

Eden Bomb can also be used for medicinal purposes, potentially treating chronic pain and migraines as well as anxiety, depression and stress.

Yield

One of the reasons Edam Bomb was bred was to increase the yield of the earlier Cheese strains. Thankfully Bomb Seeds have succeeded with flying colours, as Edam Bomb can provide anywhere between a very respectable 400g and a weighty 550g of bud per m2 at harvest time. This strain will give you the Cheese genetics you know and love, just at much higher quantities!

Speed

Edam Bomb

Edam Bomb is a fairly easy strain to grow, being suitable for cultivation regardless of your level of experience. They can be grown either inside or outdoors without much trouble, and as they generally reach a medium sized 90cm-140cm they will not overwhelm a newbie grower.

Indoor growing will suit the plant well, its modest size not taking excessive space and requiring a quick six to eight weeks to flower fully. Growing the plant inside will also mean it is less likely to reach the upper part of its growth potential, making it easier to cultivate in enclosed spaces.
The chunky yield does mean that the
stems may get weighed under the heavy bud, however, causing them to bend excessively. This can be avoided by tying the stems, but having too much bud per plant is certainly a problem most growers would be happy to deal with!

Outdoor cultivation will see the plant generally growing to a greater size, but even so it rarely exceeds 140cm, making it less intrusive than other larger strains. An outdoor harvest should be ready in September or October, and ideally the plant should be exposed to cooler temperatures in the last weeks of flowering for optimal production and quality.

Taste

The taste of Edam Bomb is an immediate reminder of its prominent genetics, delivering classic Cheese flavour with a thick skunkiness. Bomb Seeds did not try to rewrite the rulebook with the taste on offer here, perhaps realising the futility of attempting to improve on such a much-loved mainstay of the cannabis world.

Bag Appeal

Edam Bomb impresses from the outset with its fat bud that looks as bountiful as it does tempting. This is matched by the alluring bright orange hairs seen on the surface, adding a dash of vivid colour to the harvest.

The aroma is undeniably one of a strong Cheese. Edam Bomb captures the well-known and well-loved scent to deliver bud that will satisfy even the most particular fans of the classic. The smell is very potent, perhaps even more so than the original Cheese, and with its skunky character you may find yourself taking steps to contain the smell somewhat. This is especially important if your dealings with Edam Bomb require privacy.

Expanding on a classic by allowing growers to get more of the stuff they love in each harvest is a smart move by Bomb Seeds. Making the product itself more potent while retaining everything that made the original so popular, however, is a stroke of genius. Edam Bomb may be more of a Cheese 2.0 than an entirely new beast, but you won’t hear anyone complaining. For the masses of dedicated Cheese fans out there, Edam Bomb offers everything they love in a bigger and better package. What more could you want?

Big Bomb Cannabis Plant

Big Bomb

This is one for skunk lovers and commercial growers everywhere. By crossing Bomb #1 with Big Bud, Bomb Seeds have created Big Bomb, a mixed indica/sativa strain that provides jaw-dropping levels of yield with a rich skunky smoking experience. This makes Big Bomb a hot choice for many, offering the best of both worlds for those who appreciate a good smoking experience as much as a weighty harvest.

Strength

Big Bomb

While many strains embark on showy displays of brain melting THC levels and paralysing couch lock in a bid for attention, Big Bomb takes a different approach. This strain is comfortable with what it is and feels no need to run such a rat race. Containing a confidently moderate THC level of 10%-15%, Big Bomb paces itself very well, allowing its taste and effects to be enjoyed more frequently and for longer throughout the day.
Indeed this is no night-time exclusive smoke, as Big Bomb offers a classic and well-balanced skunk high that gives a long lasting and pleasant effect. This makes it suitable for daytime use in moderate amounts too, with its characteristic all-over buzz relaxing and de-stressing you through a gentle bodily stone. Because of this, Big Bomb makes for a great all-rounder that provides a tranquillity that doesn’t come at the expense of functionality.
For some with certain medical conditions this functional high could be a blessing, allowing them to use Big Bomb to alleviate lasting pain or stress while continuing many of their daily tasks.

Yield

Big Bomb

This is where the fun with Big Bomb really starts. Thanks to its parent strains, Big Bomb can offer colossal yields of rock hard bud that even match THC Bomb in quantity. Depending on whether it is grown outdoors or indoors and what the conditions are, Big Bomb can provide anywhere between 600-850g per m2. This makes the strain ideal for commercial applications.

Speed

For such a high yielding plant, Big Bomb is rather easy to grow. This means you can enjoy its hefty yields without the stress of more demanding strains. Fine to grow both indoors and outdoors, Big Bomb will likely reach a medium height, somewhere between 90cm-140cm, and with an eight to ten week flowering time will not make you wait too long either.
Indoor growth can be achieved using either a hydroponic or soil setup, with the Sea of Green (SoG) growing method working especially well. The plant will grow in a typically indica bushy fashion that may need some tying and trimming to keep it on track, sporting a dark green shade and a distinctive large central kola too.

If you do wish to grow outside then the plants will be ready for harvesting by late September or early October. Big Bomb is a hardy grower and can even be cultivated in northern European climates as long as frost and harsh winds are avoided. They are likely to grow taller than an indoor cultivated plant, reaching closer to the upper end of the strain’s growth potential. Outdoor growth will also provide the same yield as when grown indoors, or potentially even more should the right conditions be provided.

Taste

Big Bomb

While the yield on Big Bomb often takes the limelight, it also packs a rich flavour that makes smoking it a joy. Most of the taste is that of a classic skunk strain which dominates the palette, making this one for the skunk lovers out there. It also has hidden depths, however, offering up hints of sweetness and spiciness to make a more complex flavour. The exhaled smoke primarily carries over the skunky scent, filling the air with its strong earthy notes.

Bag Appeal

Big Bomb looks ready for action straight from the bag, with its thick buds that are both big and dense. This makes for a very satisfying tactile experience as you wrestle with the nugs when pulling them apart. They are also shot through with exotic yellow and orange pistils, bringing the bud to life visually and giving it personality.
The scent is much like the taste – classic potent skunk with enough kick to fill the room. This may be a boon to skunk lovers, yet it also means fans of Big Bomb should consider taking measures to limit the aroma at times. Most will agree this is a small price to pay for all the positive parts of the strain, however.

What we get with Big Bomb is a very generous yielding plant that is easy to grow and requires little work. Its thick solid nugs and timeless skunk taste offer solid satisfaction while the high is one that can be enjoyed freely and casually. While many will grow Big Bomb for commercial reasons, this is to overlook a smoking experience that will just hit the spot for many.
More than enough puns have been made about Big Bomb’s name to describe its qualities, so they’ll mercifully be omitted here. All we will say about Big Bomb is to just try it, we promise you’ll have a blast.

Bubble Bomb Cannabis Plant

Bubble Bomb

Bubble Bomb is the result of crossing two legendary strains – the Cannabis Cup winning Bubblegum and the potent THC Bomb. The result is incredible, taking the best of its parents’ genetics to create a strain that is every bit as powerful, complexly flavoured and high yielding as you would expect. Bubble Bomb is not encountered as often as its quality would suggest, but one taste of it will see you and everyone who tries it running back for more.

Strength

Bubble Bomb

Bubble Bomb provides a mixed stone and high to match its indica/sativa genetics, and wastes no time in letting you feel its effects. One smoke and the 18%-20% THC level of the strain will do the rest of the work, offering a heavy stone that lulls you into a deep state of relaxation.

Perfect for use at the end of a busy day or week, the high begins with a gently settling euphoria that gradually turns into a more full bodied physical sensation. Best of all is that the effects of smoking Bubble Bomb last for hours, allowing you to quite easily slip into a full evening of relaxation and couch-lock contentment.

As the high wears on the near-narcotic bodily effect of Bubble Bomb will pull you in deeper and deeper. Because of this many users report falling into a peaceful and uninterrupted sleep after smoking that will last for hours. This makes the strain a great choice for tackling insomnia. As well as this, Berry Bomb also has many other medical applications for problems such as pain relief, lack of appetite, and chronic stress.

Yield

Thanks mainly to its THC Bomb parentage, Bubble Bomb offers yields on a near-unprecedented level. Indoor growth will see hefty yields of around 600-650g per m2, while outdoor growth in the proper conditions can easily see Berry Bomb yielding up to 750g or more per m2.

This is partially due to the short intermodal distances on the plant itself that increase the number of bud sites. This in turn maximises the yield, making Bubble Bomb a great choice for commercial growers.

Speed

Bubble Bomb

Being an indica dominant strain, Bubble Bomb will grow with the squat bushy plant structure seasoned growers will be accustomed to. It can be grown either inside or outdoors, and reaches a convenient 55cm to 90cm that makes it compact enough for indoor growth and discreet enough for the outdoors.

The strain grows fairly quickly too, putting on size swiftly in its 8-9 week flowering time. Bubble Bomb is relatively easy to grow, not requiring much experience or expertise to bring out its delicious bud.

Indoor growth is best accomplished using the Sea of Green (SoG) method, although a hydroponic setup works very well too. However, if you want to get the best sugary sweet flavour from the strain then soil growing will be necessary. Outdoor growing is also possible even if you live in northern areas with a cooler climate, and upon harvesting in October you will be rewarded with the heaviest yields Bubble Bomb can provide.

Taste

When you come across a strain with some serious Bubblegum genetics there are certain expectations you will have. One of these is the taste, as no responsible breeder could create a new strain from the legendary Bubblegum without carrying over its much-loved flavour.

Luckily Bubble Bomb does not disappoint, keeping its parent’s first-rate sweetness and distinctive tanginess. This is no mere copycat, however, and Bubble Bomb also contains both the potency of THC Bomb and a distinctive citrusy zest that comes alive as the weed is burned to make it a true original.

These elements of the familiar and new combine to make Bubble Bomb a sugary strain that some believe to be the best tasting Bomb Seeds have ever bred.

Bag Appeal

Bubble Bomb

The sweet taste of Bubble Bomb is belied by its forest green bud with the occasional streak of orange from its flecks of hair. The nugs are lumpy, weighty and dense, coated thickly with enticing white crystals. This is accompanied by a satisfying stickiness that will make your scissors work hard for your harvest.
The strong scent has the expected sweetness to it but with a bold skunk-like accompaniment. This distinct smell is matched by an equally enchanting red shading that some of the buds occasionally adopt, making this one strain with the head-turning bag appeal to match the extraordinary smoking experience.

The result of breeding a much-loved Cannabis Cup winner with a potent yielder may seem destined to never match the expectations placed upon it. Bubble Bomb, however, has risen above this to prove the cannabis industry wrong. Colossal yields and unbeatable taste mix with a knockout stone that almost guarantees Bubble Bomb a place in even the most dedicated weed aficionado’s selection of top strains.

cherry-bomb-marijuana

Cherry Bomb

Cherry Bomb has a dash more mystique than your average commercial seed bank strain. Bred by the masters at Bomb Seeds, this fruity delight is the result of crossing the hefty yielding Big Bomb with an unknown but tasty mother strain. What we get is a carefully crafted indica dominated plant that provides both big taste and big yields, making it ideal to grow for both commercial and personal use.

Strength

Cherry Bomb

With an unusual and uplifting high that clearly belies both the indica and sativa genetics within, Cherry Bomb offers a smooth and mellow experience that is even suitable for smoking in the daytime. Some fans believe it is even better smoked in the day, with the high being of moderate strength and offering the kind of gently relaxing effect that perfectly fits a chilled out afternoon.

Having a THC level of 17-22% and a maximum CBD level of 1.34%, however, Cherry Bomb is no slouch and unlike certain other strains is capable of more than just a buzzing sedation. Many users can’t get enough of it because of the focus and creativity it provides, giving the kind of chilled concentration that is ideal for both normal tasks and artistic projects.

This also makes it useful as a mood stabiliser, for stress management, or simply to get back on your feet after a bout of lethargy. These qualities mean it is ideal for use as a medicinal aid, offering a potential remedy to depression, anxiety and other troubling disorders.

While we are aware that the strain is heavily indica based, the exact level of sativa within is unknown. This makes Cherry Bomb an exciting smoking experience, with the kind of functional stone and spritely high that is far from what you’d expect of a fat indica strain.

Yield

Cherry Bomb is definitely a strain that delivers, offering an abundance of delicious bud that can reach up to 650g per m2. This is no fickle plant either, with such large yields being the norm if properly cultivated with care. As a grower you will be thankful for this, as Cherry Bomb is certainly not short on demand.

Speed

Cherry Bomb

Cherry Bomb is a patient strain, teasing growers for a little longer than some others before it allows you to enjoy its delicious bounty. The eight to ten week wait for its flowering is more than worth it, however, with the leaves turning an enticing shade of cherry purple toward the end of the flowering period.

At its tallest Cherry Bomb will grow to a respectable and manageable 100cm-120cm, with lots of side branching happening as it matures. These will need support as time goes on meaning this sometimes isn’t the easiest of plants to grow, but being rewarded with the heavy thick bud structure of the plant makes the effort worth it. You can grow it with either a hydroponic setup or using the Screen of Green (SCRoG) method, though some growers choose to only use soil to bring out the best cherry flavour in the strain.

Cherry Bomb is also a fine outdoor grower, thriving in slightly cooler environments and even rewarding exposure to chill night-time temperatures by bringing out the purplish blue in the bud. If grown outdoors then the harvest should be ready in late September or early October, with some arguing that outdoor growth leads to even bigger yields and better taste.

Taste

For such a high yielding plant, Cherry Bomb packs in an extraordinary amount of rich flavour. True to its name, Cherry Bomb is a taste sensation, with a sweet yet complex flavour based around a central cherry note.

This is accompanied by a variety of subtle undertones that offer musky and woody elements that add richness and prevent the cherry sweetness from becoming overbearing. Finished with the slightest aromatic hint of skunk, Cherry Bomb is a pleasure to smoke.

Bag Appeal

Cherry Bomb

With such a distinctive taste it is no surprise that the bud has a scent to match, carrying a deep cherry aroma with a compelling muskiness to it.

This rich smell can both belie and complement the appearance of the bud, which sometimes carries a light green hue and other times may show a distinctive cherry-like dark purple colouring.

These Cherry Bomb buds are hefty and dense, matching the weight of the yield, and offer a satisfying tactile experience when touching them and rolling them around the fingers. Finishing this off is a luscious dusting of trichomes that cover the surface and make the bud extra irresistible.

Despite the mysterious genetic origins of Cherry Bomb, there is little doubt about the final quality of the strain. Sporting an uplifting vibrant high, colossal yields, and a taste that many find both unbeatable and unforgettable, Cherry Bomb can easily find its way into the hearts of smokers of every stripe.

THC Bomb Auto Cannabis Plant

THC Bomb Auto

Bomb Seeds are the seed bank responsible for the legendary THC Bomb, a strain so good at just about everything that it can now be found in most corners of the globe. Not content to rest on their laurels, however, Bomb Seeds decided to push the boat out once again by breeding THC Bomb with Auto Bomb to create THC Bomb Auto. The result was an all-female autoflowering edition of the original which retained the same mind-blowing qualities and added even more.

THC Bomb Auto is far from your typical autoflowerer, taking the best of both of its parents to offer the kind of genetics that outperform even many regular strains. Any knowledgeable grower will be surprised to see the qualities that THC Bomb Auto offers, making the full harvest and rich smoking experience it provides all the more satisfying.

Strength

THC Bomb Auto

With its mix of indica and sativa genetics, THC Bomb offers a complex smoking experience that is amplified through its monstrous 18-22% THC level. Preconceptions that ruderalis genetics in a plant will water down the high are shot through as the full-body buzz of THC Bomb takes hold.

Packing the strength of a mule kick, this is one of the most powerful and fast-acting autoflowering strains available. The initial effects are a deep and calming stone that wraps its way around every part of your body, sinking you deeper into a smooth physical state of tranquillity. This is closely accompanied by the sativa part of the strain, a stimulating and uplifting euphoric sensation that keeps you clear-headed and attentive.

Taken altogether these effects make it perfect for use at night when you can sit back, clear your mind, and enjoy a vibrant piece of music or visually impressive film. Even medicinally it can be helpful, being used to treat anxiety, stress and pain relief. This makes it especially useful after a long day, working its magic to rid you of any tension and lull you into a deep sleep at the end of the night.

Yield

Much like its strength, the yield of THC Bomb Auto likewise offers far in excess of anything you may have been led to believe an autoflowerer can provide. Combine this with its tough genes that make the growing process a breeze and you have a strain that is ideal for commercial growth as well as for beginners to try out.

Harvests may average around 400-450g per m2, but a well-attended plant grown under the right conditions may yield as much as 550g per m2.

Speed

THC Bomb Auto Bomb

This tough strain is no headache to grow, sporting the kind of hardy genetics that allow THC Bomb to flourish through any number of rookie mistakes or inattentiveness. She isn’t invincible though, and good care will see the plant not only survive but thrive and reward you with a better harvest.

Indoor growth will see THC Bomb primed for the Sea of Green (SoG) or Screen of Green (SCRoG) growing methods due to its branching. The plant will reach anywhere between 60cm-120cm and should be fully flowered in 65 days from seed.
THC Bomb Auto will branch well as it grows too, developing many bud sites that help give the plant its characteristic bushiness as it flowers. A hydroponic setup will allow the plant to thrive, although other methods also work well.
Outdoor growing is a viable option for THC Bomb Auto. Its mould resistant genetics and toughness make it a lot better suited for the outdoors than more delicate strains, and as long as you wait until the frost has passed you should have few problems. This even makes it viable for growth in cooler northern climates, and you can expect your harvest anywhere between May and October.

Taste

THC Bomb Auto has taken much from its original mother and this is reflected in the taste – a rich and potent skunky flavour with notes of earthiness. Adding a complex and enticing finish are the hints of fruit that are detectable to more refined palettes.

Bag Appeal

THC Bomb Auto

This is one pumped up autoflower strain, producing the kind of dense and hard rocky bud that you may not think possible. To make it even better THC Bomb Auto nugs are saturated with surprisingly rich levels of resin.

Much like the taste, the aroma of THC Bomb Auto is close to its mother strain, packing the kind of earthy scent that will satisfy skunk fans everywhere. This too is finished off with a subtle hint of fruit that makes it as appetising as it is satisfying.

Truly an exception to the rule, THC Bomb Auto is higher yielding, better tasting and stronger than your typical autoflowering varieties. It is the kind of strain that asks for very little and offers plenty, giving masses of potent easy-growing bud in exchange for even minimal input.

We cannot recommend THC Bomb Auto highly enough, and we’re confident that regardless of your level of experience or growing ability you will be happy with the ease of growth, THC strength, and generous yields on offer here.
