According to Kannabia Seeds, an overlooked terpene profile is often an issue among growers purchasing a new variety for the first time.
The company decided to develop a high-yielding strain with impressive fragrance and flavor to address this.
In this way, one need not choose between a high-yielding plant or a delicious one.
To develop this, the breeders used Bubble Gum. The strain has a well-renowned sweetness that gave way to its moniker.
Enhancing its palatable smoke are its berry and floral undertones.
Beyond its taste, the strain induces a euphoric head high that gives thoughts a rose-colored tint.
It was later paired with the well-balanced Chronic.
Like the former, it has a complex terpene profile that brings out its sweet honeyed flavors sprinkled with floral and spicy hints.
The hybrid induces a complementary blend of mental and physical effects that follows a relaxing theme.
Perhaps its most distinguished feature, however, is its performance in the grow room.
Kannabia Seeds’ efforts were not for naught. From the cross, Big Band emerged.
The Indica-leaning bud has a sweet smell with herbal tinges of herbs which only enhance its overall terpene profile upon consumption.
It also solved the initial dilemma of high-yielding strains that did not sacrifice flavors.
Its merits go beyond too. With THC levels between 15% to 18%, it has versatile effects that users can adjust to fit personal tolerance levels.
Generally speaking though, its brand of high is a slow-starting euphoria that bides its time when it comes to uplifting the mood.
Prepped ahead of time, users slip into a state of relaxation with no qualms.

It swarms the mind, clearing away negativities and worries. In all likelihood, the euphoric rush will leave users feeling happy from within.
Having some snacks nearby will be of great convenience for when the mental stimulation spreads to the appetite.
It takes about 30 minutes to an hour for its Indica effects to begin.
Depending on the dosage, it could potentially lead to a couch lock.
Most of the time, however, the effects are not at all debilitating.
Instead, it induces a deep relaxation that relieves tightness so users could move like a well-oiled machine while completing light physical tasks.
In moderation, Big Band could be of use as a wake and bake strain that keeps users alert and upbeat while completing tasks.
Extending the high and adding a few extra puffs leads to a more sedating comedown.
In which case, one could reserve the bud for a day off or a night of relaxation. This should also serve as a warning to use the strain in moderation.
