Bubble Tea
Bubble Tea is a modern hybrid cannabis strain derived from its parent, LA Bubblecake. Designed for versatile cultivation, this strain performs well in both indoor and outdoor settings, reaching maturity with a 56-day flowering period. Growers typically describe the cultivation process as moderate in difficulty, yet the strain is recognized for producing high yields. Its widespread influence in contemporary breeding programs is evidenced by an extensive list of notable offspring, including Black Maple Boba, Boba, Boba Popz, BOBAz, Bubble T, Bubble Tea Bel-Air, Bubbletea OG, Great Balls of Fire, Interstellar, Meltaways, Mint Meltaways, and OZAKA.
The chemical profile of Bubble Tea is characterized by a dominant presence of myrcene, followed by secondary caryophyllene and tertiary limonene content. This specific combination of terpenes guides the strain's sensory profile. As a THC-dominant variety, it delivers a consistent experience that balances its aromatic qualities with potent cannabinoid potency.
Physiologically, users report that Bubble Tea provides effects that are simultaneously relaxed, happy, and uplifted. These characteristics make the strain a suitable choice for those managing stress, physical pain, or those seeking assistance with sleep. Through its diverse lineage and consistent performance, Bubble Tea has established itself as an essential genetic component in the development of modern crossbreeding projects.

●●○○
Russo 2011: only terpene that is a selective full CB2 agonist (100 nM); Gertsch et al. 2008: acts as dietary cannabinoid; unique anti-inflammatory and gastric cytoprotective properties.
Russo 2011: increases serotonin in prefrontal cortex + dopamine in hippocampus via 5-HT1A; Johns Hopkins 2024: significantly reduced anxiety vs THC alone.
Effects
Reported effects — derived from terpene chemistry and cannabinoid profile.
relaxed
eveningPrimary endpoint of myrcene+linalool sedating combinations; GABA modulation is the dominant mechanistic driver.
happy
anytimeuplifted
morningLimonene anxiolytic/antidepressant via serotonin elevation in prefrontal cortex (Russo 2011); mood improvement without full euphoria; key for balanced-1-1 profiles.
Genetic Profile
Balanced Hybrid
Equal indica and sativa genetics. Balanced body and mind effects.
THC-Dominant
