Bruce Banner

Bruce Banner: Get Your Hulk On 

Bruce Banner seeds require an intermediate level of experience in cannabis growing to produce delicious, high-THC content buds. The strain was created from a cross between OG Kush and Strawberry Diesel. Both of these strains help give Bruce Banner its sweet taste which makes it the ideal weed for anyone with a sweet tooth. The beautifully pungent aroma will fill your sinuses long before you take your first hit. This bud has a flavor profile of wild and strawberries that cannabis aficionados love. While the strain gives you the jumpstart you need to be productive through the day, the Indica will hit later on, providing you with the desire to unwind and relax.

Growing Tips for Our Seeds

Bruce Banner seeds are harder to grow than your average cannabis strains and are considered temperamental once you get past the germination stage. Be aware that it takes a certain level of dedication to see this grow through to the end. You can expect plants as tall as ten feet high so if you don’t have adequate room to grow, then this is not the strain for you. The strain needs high amounts of airflow and ventilation to get the desired yield and because the plant requires a Mediterranian-like environment to be successful. Typically, indoor growers have more success because the environment can be controlled, but that doesn’t mean you can’t produce high-quality bud with an outdoor grow. You will need to grow in warmer climates if you are dead-set on growing outdoors.

Dial in Your Growing Conditions

• Indoor or Outdoor: Growing Bruce Banner plants indoors is easier than outdoors since the lighting, temperature, and humidity can be easily controlled. If the temperature is the desired temperature for this strain you can count on higher yields. In an indoor and outdoor setting, you will need to sustain temperatures between 65-80 degrees Fahrenheit for optimum growth. Proper airflow and ventilation are needed to prevent mold from ruining your plants.
• Moisture control: During the vegetative state you are going to want to keep the humidity between 40-60%. Bruce Banner benefits from an environment that doesn’t change in temperature and humidity. You will need to choose between hydroponics or regular, nutrient-rich soil, but either way, you’ll need to stay on top of the grow to ensure everything runs smoothly. 
• Training Techniques: Bruce Banner plants need low-stress training and/ or topping to control the height and size of your buds. Fatter, longer buds don’t always mean better buds, especially with a high THC content strain like this one. Banner strains are volatile so the less stress the better. LST and topping will help create an even canopy which will help promote even light getting to all of the buds, even the ones at the bottom of the notably tall plant. Indoor and outdoor grows both benefit from high light penetration.

Yields, Flowering Time and Harvest

• Flowering Time: This strain has a flowering time of around 8 to 10 weeks when grown indoors and outdoors. Outdoor growers can expect to harvest in late September and early October depending on when you planted your seeds in the Spring. If the temperature drops a little at night, that is okay as these plants will still grow big and strong like the green monster they are named after.
• Yields: Indoor yields are 600 grams per square meter while outdoor grows typically have 1000 grams per plant. Either way, these uber-tall plants will give you a super large harvest.

Dominant Terpenes in Bruce Banner: The Man, The Myth, The Legend

Bruce Banner’s earthy taste and aroma are created by its dominant terpenes. Everything from the scent to the effects can be attributed to its chemical makeup. The science behind this strain is especially unique and a better understanding of the build of the plant can ensure you get the right flavor notes and scents.

• Caryophyllene: Enhancing the Strains Complexity – Caryophyllene is recognized for its spicy and peppery scent and taste. Known for its anti-inflammatory benefits this terpene will help with pain relief as well.
• Myrcene: Welcoming Aroma – This is a monoterpene hydrocarbon that is found widely in many plants. This terpene gives Bruce Banner a mild hint of hops and sweet flavor profiles and can also have analgesic properties.
• Limonene: Citrusy Goodness – Responsible for slightly sweet and citrusy notes within Bruce Banner plants. This terpene can be found in many citrus fruits and can promote heart health as well as antioxidant properties.

Dominant Cannabinoids in Bruce Banner: 

Cannabinoids are the background players in Bruce Banner and can be attributed to the many effects the strain has to offer. That feeling of calm and warmth is in large part due to THC and CBD. The Cannabinoids in Bruce Banner are linked to the creative effect it has on the brain as well as the blissful and energized feeling you will get from this plant. 

• THC: The Main Character – THC is the most dominant cannabinoid on the molecular level of Bruce Banner. The crystalline compound tetrahydrocannabinol is the main ingredient of cannabis. Topping out at 29%, the THC in the Sativa dominant strain is responsible for the euphoric head and body high and creative effect. The THC in Bruce Banner will give you a boost of energy without making you stay up all night.
• CBG: The Naturally Synthesized Cannabinoid – CBG is a cannabinoid that is synthesized from cannabigerolic acid. CBG, even in small amounts like in Bruce Banner, can uplift not only the body but also the mind. This is why you will tap into your creativity while catching a buzz on Bruce Banner.
