Best Bruce Banner available in seed form 2020

Hey, which would anyone say is the best example in seed form of Bruce Banner? I have a list too long to choose from.
-Hulkberry from Royal Queen Seeds
-hulk king from world's strongest strains
-bruce banner og from elev8
-bruce banger from seedsman
-bruce banner from concrete jungle
-bruce banner from black skull
-bruce banner #3 from anesia
-bruce banner from BSB

The Hulk king and Bruce Banner OG are both available in regs which is helpful for breeding purposes, but Hulk king seems less genetically stable.
Anyone grow any of these seeds?

If you want Bruce Banner, it's Darkhorse genetics. I had a registered cut of #5, from a Colorado dispensary, very nice stuff if you like OG, it's a bit more uppity, owing to the tinge of Haze I would suppose.

I bought a couple packs from DH and was not impressed. Not the BB but Hulk Smash and couple others, it was OK but it had herm issues. IF I was a large grower I may have found the magic in 30-40 plus plants. Some others like their stuff and Im a small grower so take that for what its worth. There are some threads here on it and one grower here claims to have the original cut that DH lost but DH says they recreated the line. Pretty interesting story I found out from chasing the BB legend but for me lots of legends are just that in so much as you cant find it and the ones who really claim to have it hold it like its unobtanium and they like the nanny nanny boo boo I got it and you dont mentality which means they are afraid to share it because it probably isnt as good they want you to think it is. All while if it were something on that level over time it would have spread just by being so good because thats the way shit works. So I have to presume if its like the gold some claim there is no way it would not spread. But thats just my opinion which is worth what you paid for it. Right Mr.Man ???? :moon: But I have chased a couple of the hard to find things and at least one I got did turn out to be all that.

The female cuts of Bruce Banner are readily available in Colorado. Dark horse claims to have the original male and female that made bb#3&#5, and they sell that actual cross, in regs. Those are reliable genetics, and the legendary cuts came from a selection of 12, you don't need big numbers when you are working with that quality of genetics. Primary source genetics are preferable in my experience.
I've never tried Dark Horse seeds, only the legendary cuts themselves.

Nothing wrong with non primary source, if it's legitimate and done right, and Seedsman would be my top choice on above list. That is for sure!
Hope you find some good ones, let us know. :tiphat:


A good Bruce Banner should be somewhere between a deisel and an OG with something sweet added. Heavy yielder and not too fussy. The one I had was mostly Diesal with OG undertones, and a sweet, slightly hazy, mostly diesel effect.

Im pretty sure if you dig deep enough the guy who grew the original cuts of BB while in school admitted he lost the original mom and dad and long story is he remade it kind of. There are a few threads here and at a couple other places that go deep into the history I think. I was just trying to acquire a original cut which I am pretty sure is still around but like I mentioned if it were all that it would be more widespread, but that is just my opinion. Good luck and hope you find the magic.

This dude is a clown without a clue whom solicited/harassed me for years like I owed him something ...

That said, having watched many breedings and done some breeding with BB3 myself over the years, she is tough if not impossible to reproduce. If you are looking for the real deal your best bet is picking up a clone only cut that is still available all these years later just as HAZENACIOUS stated.

I asked politely a couple times. You said no. I said OK. I have managed to acquire some of the top strains and am working on a few more at the moment. I say that its not all that because if it were regardless of your attempt to be the only person with it a strain that is supposedly the best of the best it would get out and spread despite your efforts to lord it over people so you think your special. I have found and been gifted some top shelf genetics, you can use your crap to feed the goats. I wouldnt grow it if you paid me because there are strains out there that are obviously better since people are not growing BB all over despite your efforts. You want people to think its the be all end all strain, sorry. It may be good. Dont know, dont care cause Im sure I have found better.

That's why I called you a clueless clown. I have been sharing BB3 with my ICMag fam for many years to ensure her preservation, that just ain't you ...

I appreciate all the replies, but the purpose of this thread was for finding the best example in seed form. I live in Canada, and the thread was started in hopes of helping people, like me, to find the best seed form since we can't buy a legitimate dark horse clone. I would buy seeds from dark horse genetics, which is possible, but there is none being offered now outside of a few Bruce Banner hybrids. I think what made the power of the strain was the ghost og, and the strawberry diesel added some flavour but also the sativa-ish characteristic to the high. It is a fine balance, and I recognize that it may take some digging to get that perfectly balanced mother, but if it's watered down with either weaker or more indica genetics, the balance may be lost for what makes it special imo. So seedsman is a pretty legit breeder?

Never had any problems with seedsman... they’re not a breeder as such, the seedsman brand are seeds from other breeders, who sell under the seedsman ‘umbrella’
I’ll let you know how these two girls get on- still small atm :tiphat:

Never grown seedsman, but they have been around forever, a friend of mine had good luck with them, loves them. Have seen lots of their grows online, people seem to do pretty well mostly good reviews.
A quick search found this grow of Bruce Banger... Looks hopeful.

@Thesearch Sorry I couldn't be of more assistance, but I've seen the clone only floating around Maple Ridge in recent years.

Hey
Im late to the party ,but I'm growing some Bruce banner #3 from original sensible seeds and I must say it's 🔥 fire.
Never smoked the original bb3 so I don't know how it compares, but all 3 seeds I've popped so far are very nice plants, every single one being outstanding.
Good yield, good potency ,strong smell and very frosty. One of my top strains so far, and already became very popular between my homies.
Would recommend the seeds.

I'm late as well.
I bought some Bruce Banner Feminised Cannabis Seeds | Discount Cannabis Seeds a while ago which were the same as Black Skull. It was BOGOF £26 for 5 got 10, well cheap so thought I'd try them to see how good they were. 10 seeds > 7 plants 2 were okish and 5 were great had them jammed in with other stuff. Really impressed with the outcome, variation from head to body and a bloody good yield.
Heres a pic of one that grew in to the light that i had to bend over 4 times

I've smoked bruce banner from seedsman a few times and can say that I like it the most. But, I can't tell about others, because I've only ordered from one place. Also, I'd like to ask you about Blue Mango seed. Has someone tried it? I read about that seed here https://askgrowers.com/strains/blue-mango-strain-review, and it seems like a worth trying seed. I like that it has a tropical flavor, but I still would like to hear about someone's experience. Also, this site https://weedmaps.com/ is quite useful for me because there is also a lot of info about different seeds and strains.

I run 2 years ago bruce banner from Royal Queen seeds "hulkberry" have some nice hibrid plants, some variation but the high was very similar, nice strain to find a good mother. A good solid hibrid would love to run the original one day.
