Don Bruce Banner
Also known as: Bruce Banner #3, Bruce Banner Don
Don Bruce Banner Strain Overview
Don Bruce Banner is a potent hybrid cannabis strain that represents a specific phenotype selection from the original Bruce Banner genetic line. The strain was developed by Dark Horse Genetics, who selected this particular expression from their Bruce Banner breeding project. It gained prominence in the early 2010s and has maintained popularity among both medical and recreational users due to its exceptional potency and balanced effects. The name references both the breeder's selection process and the strain's powerful effects, which users describe as transformative.
The strain is characterized by dense, resinous buds that display a striking appearance with deep green foliage contrasted by vibrant orange pistils and a generous coating of trichomes that gives the flowers a frosty, crystalline appearance. The buds often develop purple hues when exposed to cooler temperatures during cultivation. Don Bruce Banner is particularly noted for its high trichome production, making it a favorite among concentrate producers and extract artists.
Notable features include its complex aromatic profile and the consistency of its effects across different growing environments. While the original Bruce Banner genetics have several phenotype expressions, the 'Don' selection was specifically stabilized to emphasize certain desirable traits, including its cerebral effects and distinctive flavor profile. The strain has become a benchmark for high-THC hybrids in the cannabis community.

Don Bruce Banner Strain Growing Information
Don Bruce Banner is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, requiring some experience to achieve optimal results. The flowering time is approximately 8-9 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests typically ready in late September to early October. The plants tend to be medium to tall in height, often reaching 4-6 feet indoors and potentially taller outdoors. Yield is above average, with indoor growers reporting 14-18 ounces per square meter under optimal conditions.
Preferred growing conditions include both indoor and outdoor environments, though indoor cultivation allows better control over the climate-sensitive traits. The plants respond well to training techniques like SCROG (Screen of Green) and topping to manage height and maximize yield. Special considerations include maintaining stable temperature and humidity levels, as the dense buds are susceptible to mold in overly humid conditions. Nutrient requirements are moderate to high, with particular attention needed during the flowering phase when resin production peaks.
