What is the 505 Headbanger strain?
505 Headbanger is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 28.0% THC, known for its cerebral effects and bergamot and citrus flavor profile.
505 Headbanger is an autoflowering hybrid cannabis strain developed by Mephisto Genetics, created by crossing Karma Genetics' legendary Headbanger (Sour Diesel K.G. cut x Biker Kush V1) with their own Fugue State (Amnesia Haze Bx1 x Walter White F5). This strain represents a collaboration between two respected breeding houses, bringing together the award-winning genetics of Karma's Headbanger, which won 3rd place at the 2013 High Times Cannabis Cup in the Sativa Category, with Mephisto's autoflower expertise. The strain develops into a robust, medium-large structure with strong lateral branching and tight internodal spacing, maintaining a vibrant lime-green hue accented by fiery orange pistils throughout its lifecycle. 505 Headbanger is characterized by its dense, compact bud structure with well-stacked tops and exceptional trichome production. The aroma profile evolves from initial fruity notes of sweet Bartlett pear and overripe kiwi during early cure to the classic nostalgic Sour Diesel characteristics with bright lime and soapy bergamot tang. This is described as 'Sour-D-the-way-it-was-meant-to-be' with proper face-scrunching citrus funk rather than gassy distractions. The strain is explicitly marketed as not for beginners, delivering what breeders describe as a 'full-force Marshall wall of sound to the skull' with intense cerebral effects that can be overwhelming for inexperienced users.

How do you grow 505 Headbanger?
505 Headbanger is an autoflowering strain suitable for both indoor and outdoor cultivation with a flowering time of approximately 70 days (10 weeks). Indoor yields range from 90-150 grams per plant, with some sources reporting potential yields up to 425g/m². The plant develops strong lateral branching with tight internodal spacing, growing to medium-large size with branches nearly reaching the upper canopy. Due to dense foliage, frequent defoliation is essential for proper airflow and light penetration, with lollipopping recommended due to the thick canopy. More aggressive mid-flower defoliation enhances light distribution and bud density. The strain exhibits explosive growth during stretch phase and produces an abundance of bud sites, giving high yield potential when grown in optimal conditions. Daily leaf tucking allows lower branches to push through, creating an even tabletop-style canopy. The plant maintains vibrant lime-green coloration with fiery orange pistils throughout its lifecycle.
