Potency
Bruce Banner weed strain is a 50/50 hybrid that combines the features of both Indica and Sativa. This weed is as energizing as calming, which allows you to stay calm and keep up with your daily activities while being under its influence. It was named after Doctor Bruce Banner who is most commonly known as the alter-ego of the Incredible Hulk, a huge and powerful green beast that can smash anything with his enormous fists. The parent strains are Strawberry Diesel, another potent and energizing hybrid, and OG Kush, a more calming hybrid, which gives us a strong but not too overwhelming Bruce Banner strain. Growers can choice are two types of seeds for this strain: Bruce Banner Autoflower Seeds and Bruce Banner feminized seeds.
The history of the strain takes us to Los Angeles, where a group of cultivars known to the world as the Dark Horse genetics came up with the idea of creating a really potent and energizing strain that would be high in THC but not overwhelmingly potent at the same time. As a result, they created 5 different strains of weed they called after Bruce Banner and numbered them from 1 to 5. As much as in comics, not all the experiments go down too well, so they quickly dropped strain #2 and #4. Strains #1, #3, and #5 were much more successful and are now available on the market. The original Bruce Banner strain THC level goes as high as 23-25% which is considered really potent.

Smell and Flavor
Unlike most strains that have this distinctive herbal smell, Bruce Banner gives you a strong peppery smell mixed with citrusy notes. This familiar earthy or herbal aroma only lingers somewhere in the background. Its smell is also different from anything you’ve smelled before — it is a pungent and strong smell that can make your nose itch a bit, but it is also a familiar weed smell at the same time.
The flavor would always depend on the smoking method you choose. If you’d use a short pipe, especially a pipe made of metal, you will end up with a bitter and really unpleasant smoke that irritates your throat and makes you cough. Smoking a tobacco-mix blunt will produce a softer and less irritating smoke but you will also have a taste of tobacco in there. Smoking with a big old bong or a vaporizer, the smoke will be much more pleasant and you’ll be able to sense those peppery and citrusy notes in there.
Bruce Banner Growing Review
The plants of the Bruce Banner strain grow tall and require some space, so you’ll need a spacious growing station. At the same time, this plant is resilient and strong, so you don’t need to worry about parasites and all that bad stuff, though you still need to show your tree some love and care.
To grow a strong and potent plant, you’ll need either a decent hydroponics system or just some space outdoors. As said, this plant withstands pests and parasites really good, it is also a tall tree, so keep that in mind. This plant flowering time takes about 9 weeks, which makes it a slow grower. Though, as with all the good things in life, sometimes you must be patient to achieve them.

Bruce Banner here helped me study for my Chem paper, everyone should give it a try.
While preparing marijuana gummies I often prefer such strains. They make a potent end product. I tried this Bruce Banner with brownies and they were a bang, so I thought why not for the gummies. The report is favorable.
went in thinking I'd feel like the hulk. It didn't, instead i laughed at nithing for hours.
Nice smoke
Coolest dope have had so far
Growing BB auto is off too a really slow start the ph is neutral and everything else is the same as my gorilla glue which was extremely successful any ideas? Weak genetics
When I started smoking weed this was the TOP 3 strains I had to smoke. In 2018 I finally bought some, in a coffeeshop of Amsterdam ". I smoked a lot of strains before this, and plenty of them were mostly earthy sweet smell and taste, I was expecting something different with the BB, but turned out to have the same predominent earthy and sweet smell, with some pungency. The taste was more apparant, as it was diesel sweet, with earthy notes, very lovely. The high though, wasnt what I expected, infact, I first got a clear head high, then it was pretty smooth, like I didn't have the eyes and ear pressures like the Mango Haze, lemon haze gave me, it was smooth, but the visual and sound distortion were something. It got me going for a solid hour, then I felt a strong body high, that left me stock in the couch, with a big smile on the face, guess I put too much. Overall, this strain helped me alot with depression, my anxiety, and stress, and pain relief. I did experience some paranoia, but this is basically all on you, like if you can handle it, it won't be a big deal. 4/5stars, cuz the first thing I was looking for with this strain was a strong cerebral high, but other classic sativa get the job done better
I like this weed, but sometimes my eyes are dry just a little and I can’t sleep well. I hope this strange effect will pass soon. Form other side, bruce cannabis gives me happy mood all day long and helps my body to be in tone)
Yo, guys! Are there party people! If you really want have much fun just smoke Bruce Banner weed! you definitely wont regret it. It’s the craziest and the most pleasant thing I’ve ever tried! Can’t imagine my next party without this pot!
Awesome cannabis! This pot allows me to be full of energy and do productive work. my friend also tried this strain and feels amazing. I really believe there is no impossible work or goal for me in this world. Just superweed!
To be honest, I did not trust the positive effect of the herb and was suspicious of similar drugs. but I was looking for the best way to regain my activity. smoking this marijuana pleasantly surprised me. I got the desired effect and even more
Bruce Banner is so sweet that I cant enjoy it to my hearts content
I know my best present for Christmas) yes, its bruce weed)))
NOT for beginner! very hard for me
strain helps me to work better and more effectively
god of giggling, yeah!
I wish to be inflused by this bruce weed rest of my life!
great, what dose of energy!!!!
love you, mr. Bruce
Magic beast)
Been growing a couple of seed phenos of the #3 for a few years in S. Oregon, finishes early, good yielding, very potent up to 28% and high terpene % over 5%, Myrcene dominant. Definitely a winner and a great overall variety! Potent and nice effects.
BB has kickass genes but it aint easy to grow to its optimal form. But if you really get into it, you get yourself my friend some AWESOME WEED!!! Im talking facemelting, own-name-forgeting, electric high that lasts for hours! Just look for the best seeds or growers thats all
not so sure that bb is such a perfect weed as others seem to think. Sure its got all it should, but the smoke is kinda heavy and it tastes like dirt. And I dont mean it reminds of the taste, it actually tastes like that, as many other breeds. It is GOOD but not 10/10
Why cant people understand that high THC level is not the only measure of GOOD WEED??? Bruce has potency, but also has a unique VIBE and although there are many much more potent strains, Id take BB over most of the others
I smoke two joints of this shit and I get all confuzed and cant stay in one place!
Keeps the Hulk in ;) nothing beats it after a hard day at work
this Mary makes me too sleepy
Quite relaxing.
Great relaxing high.
This bud leaves your head buzzing but in a nice way. The high is felt in the head after just a few puffs and then spreads to the rest of the body. The euphoric effects will take you by surprise and feel relaxed. Its a good bud for those who love getting stoned.
My favorite joint.
I got recommended to try this weed on solving insomnia. I got to admit it didn’t disappoint at all. It offers great relaxation and makes me sleep at least 6 hours. It doesn’t leave you with a heavy head but I wake up feeling great. Its effective on helping with insomnia and does much better than I may describe.
I love the after taste it leaves you with, great strain for me.
Super cool , I love it!!!!
Makes me euphoric and replaced.
has a nice relaxing buzz
Awesome head high.
Love the after taste.
Best joint to unwind with makes me feel so relaxed and jovial.
Great weed to get high and calm. clears my stress away.
Smooth and soft smoke.
My number one girl
Gives a headache
My best choice before going for my morning jog. This weed is well balanced and keeps me well aware of what happening around me. It also prevents muscle cramps making me love it the more. This awesome strain is my jogging partner!
Best weed for chilling in the evening.
This strain is so cool! My anxiety attacks have been a thing of the past.
veryyyyy sedating makes me sleep well.
My favorite pot for meditating.
I am not a big fan of the sour taste, but I love this strain overall. Every time I smoke it, all I want to do is watch Dumb and Dumber. Makes me giggle every time, I recommend it if you are a fan of lemon flavor
Pungent lemon flavor
