BC Big Bang
Also known as: BC Big Bud, Big Bang BC
BC Big Bang Strain Overview
BC Big Bang is a cannabis strain that originated in British Columbia, Canada, during the late 1990s or early 2000s. The strain was developed by local breeders who sought to create a high-yielding variety with potent effects and distinctive characteristics. While its exact genetic lineage is not always consistently documented across sources, it is generally understood to be a cross between Big Bud and an unknown sativa-dominant strain, possibly a Skunk or Haze variety. This combination was intended to blend Big Bud's renowned productivity with the uplifting cerebral effects of sativa genetics.
The strain typically produces dense, resinous buds that are medium to large in size, with a structure that reflects its hybrid nature. The flowers often display a range of green hues, sometimes with subtle purple or blue undertones depending on growing conditions, and are covered in a generous coating of trichomes. Orange or rust-colored pistils are commonly visible throughout the buds. BC Big Bang gained popularity among both recreational users and medical patients in Western Canada before spreading to other regions.
Notable features of BC Big Bang include its relatively fast flowering time for a hybrid and its adaptability to various growing environments. The strain has maintained a presence in the cannabis community, particularly among growers who appreciate its balance of effects and reliable yields. While not as widely commercialized as some modern hybrids, BC Big Bang remains a respected strain in certain circles, especially in its region of origin.

BC Big Bang Strain Growing Information
BC Big Bang is considered a moderately easy strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors and are ready for harvest by late September to early October outdoors. Yields are generally above average, with indoor growers reporting 400-500 grams per square meter and outdoor plants producing 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions. The strain can be grown both indoors and outdoors, though it thrives in temperate climates similar to its British Columbia origins. Plants tend to reach medium height (1.2-1.8 meters) and benefit from training techniques like topping or SCROG to maximize light penetration and bud development. BC Big Bang is relatively resistant to common molds and pests but requires good air circulation, especially during the flowering stage when buds become dense.
