I have not grown, but have sampled the Pre-98 Bubba Kush. Quite honestly, I did not care for the taste, but I liked the bud and buzz. With this Pre-98 Bubba Kush / Space Queen cross, I am loving it! The more I sample the Qush, pheno 2, the more I like it, with the nice hint of lemon, it makes all the difference of the taste for me. We all have our preferences, and this is mine.
The Qush pheno 2 is a keeper in my grow room, no doubt about it.
I sat and sampled some of the bud from the shorter pheno with one of my patients. We have come to the conclusion that the shorter pheno Qush is by far the best we have smoked since the Medical Marijuana law was enacted here in Michigan (2008-09). This is in reference to potency and quality of buzz, it is the best we have tried.
The Qush is the most potent strain I have in my garden now. My other strains are rather potent, but Qush, the shorter pheno, has beat them all.
The taller of the two phenos, I rate that one average. It is good smoke and all, good flavor, and decent buzz. It also has a slightly larger yield than the shorter pheno.
I would like to note that the shorter pheno, the one I like the best, did not stretch after flipping to 12/12. It grew, filled in, but did not stretch hardly at all.
Next I will be growing out the clones. I am very hopeful that they maintain the same quality and flavor as the original plant from seed.
I will report back after they are finished.

After growing out a clone of pheno 1, I allowed it to ripen more than with the original seed plant. The potency was about the same as pheno 2. No problems, deformaties, mold issues, just not a fan of the pre-98 bubba kush taste.
Pheno 2, the one I chose to keep, after smoking it a while, it is about equivalent to my other strains. At first it seemed stronger because it was something new. I will keep that in mind for future new strains. Something interesting about this pheno is my patients mentioned that it has a nice banana flavor. I agree, it does.
Unfortunately, pheno 2 does have a problem and I will most likely not keep it. It is very susceptible to mold. The most susceptible strain I have seen yet. Also, the mold that I did see, which was on the king buds, was a mold that I have not seen before. It was a whitish blue powder between the stem and bud, not visible until manicuring. I had to destroy those king buds, and it hurt to need to do so.
Other than the mold issue, I really like the pheno 2 strain.
It is winter right now and it should be safe to grow it out while the air is dry. I don't see myself growing it again, especially during the humid months.

Wow, just realized I didn't put my Qush Test Grow Video on here. I will have to do so.
The video is pretty much the same pictures and all from seed to smoke.
