With powerfully euphoric effects, unrivalled flavours and dense nugs that pack a real punch, it is no wonder that this strain variety is one of the most popular in the world today. Seedsman’s very own Bruce Banger is bred from an Original OG Kush and a Strawberry Diesel. The strain holds a classic diesel aroma from its Strawberry parent, while retaining the exhilarating effects of its Kush lineage. A sativa dominant strain, Bruce Banger is appropriate for daytime use; once the initial hit of power disappears, the user is left with a creative buzz that can last for hours. Bruce Banger flowers at 9 to 10 weeks and is suitable for all environments and grow media. This immensely popular and in-demand strain is not to be missed! So this bb was potted directly from the packet into biobizz lightmix soil and saturated with activera, she then surfaced around 60 hours into germination, this is a new strain from seedsman so am looking forward to it quite a bit to be fair, I will be continuing to use lightmix soil aswell as biobizz nutrients but will also be using bio silicon throughout and shogun boosters for the flowering stage, I will update all the details on this diary properly once I have settled her into her veg tent so should be this afternoon latest! Thanks for checking in

D8, so this seedling has been stretching for light a little so I have dropped the led down to 8" over the week, and started on the bio silicon today.. Other then this she seems to be doing ok and there isn't really much else to update at the moment.. she is become a little thirsty so will be getting her transplanted by the end of the week if not sooner.. will update again in a few days. D12, the pictures I have just uploaded are from yesterday, I intended on transplanting at around 14 days but this one was taller then the rest of the strains I am running and started leaning over, also her being in a 0.5l pot didn't seem suitable any more as over the past few days I have had to start watering upto 2 times a day, so yesterday I transplanted her to a 5l pot still using the lightmix soil as planned and hurried her a little deeper so that so now only sits 3" above the soil. In the picture she looks a little droopy but 24 hours later she has picked up and seems pretty happy so hopefully she will continue to grow with little to no stress! Although in saying that I plant to start lst asap so will probably get cracking on that in around a weeks time, maybe 2, she is going to sit in this pot for another 2 weeks roughly and then I will transplant her again. Other then this there isn't really much else to say so my next post will probably be week 3's update

So I thing we are around day 24 now so coming close to the half way point in veg, over the past few days all 7 strains have been topped, and when the new tops develop enough on them all I will tie them down, I am going to be training these but I am not starting till Monday as I need to pull everything down and hide it for a house inspection that morning so when I get everything back up after it the training will begin and it's likely that I will be transplanting a final time at that point too.. the burned leaves in the picture are I think from the silicon but it was earlier on and doesn't seem to be effecting the newer growth so looks like she is ok with the dose she is getting now, I have also cut off her lower two nodes as when i transplant I am going to burry her upto was the third node to make her a little shorter and help fatten her up a bit more!

So, d1ofw5.. Today I have transplanted a few of the strains I am currently running, from 5l pots to 20l pots, I have continued to use biobizz lightmix as planned and have began training too as you can see from the pictures. Despite this strain not being the tallest I would say she deffo has the most gerth so far and looks like she is going to turn out to be sure a stocky plant, she is giving of a bit of a smell now too. I am still continuing with bio silicon once a week but I am going to go the dose to 0.5ml/l now and then in two weeks I will begin with the nutrients. Being 29 days in I am only half way through veg at the moment so she still has a bit of time before she gets the flip to fill out, I am pretty happy with her progress so far to be fair so hopefully she continues to grow nice and healthy! She is still currently under my 300w led but I have a feeling that once all 7 strains have been transplanted that the led isn't going to cover everything enough with out the stretching, so will see how they get on for now but it is possible that in the near future i will be swapping my led for my 400w hps to finish flowering! I will put up some better pictures in the next day or so. Till next time!

So today is the last day of week 6, I forgot to measure the size of her so will do that this afternoon and post the details! As you can see from the pictures though she has grown exceptionally well since my last update and has filled out nicely.. one of the guys advised that this particular strain stretches quite a lot during the flowing stretch.. so because of this I have split the 7 strains so that the sativa dominant strains are sepperate to the indica dominant/hybrid strains to avoid them from out doing each other and causing light issues ect.. also because of the stretch and to avoid having to run 2 hps lights quite close to each other at the same time, today is my last day of veg, initially I intended to veg 8 weeks but for the reasons I just mentioned 6 is where it ends, so tomorrow.. the 400w hps will be on for 12 hours during the day in the indica tent, and the sativa tent with the 600w hps will be ran for 12hours during the night! Over the past couple of days I have noticed a little fading lower down the canopy so I introduced bio grow yesterday at quarter strength for the first time, she looks like she has evened out nicely though so hopefully I won't need to do too much now well she stretches! During this flowering stage I am going to try and post a little more frequently so will try and upload new pictures every fee days atleast. Thanks for checking in!

So week 7, d46.. 4days into 12/12.. so far this plant to be fair is progressing great, I haven't a single fault with her, she has a very sweet aroma already and is really sturdy, she has swelled a little more as she has fattened up and looks like she is going to produce quite a few bud sites. I have been notified by seedsman that a few of these new strains go for gold during the flowering stretch so I am looking forward to seeing this in action as her growth seems to now be noticably increasing now.. I will be lightly tying a few tops down during the stretch if necessary to maintain the even canopy.. and before the week Is out i will be stripping some of the lower growth to help her focus more on the top of the plant! The sativa dom strains I am running now have been put under a 600w hps for the flowering stage so hopefully she continues to progress as well as she has so far

Sorry they arent all very clear but The pics for this update are from yesterday (d11 of 12/12) she hasn't stretched much upto now after being flipped but she is continuing to fill out nicely as you can see and has plenty of bud sites so I'm more then happy with her progress, I have added a top dressing of dolomite lime (recommended with biobizz soil) and on her next feed I am going to introduce bio bloom.. I have had to deal with some temp swings causing my temps in the tent to raise bow and again but she seems to be more then happy so I am looking forward to seeing how she progresses from here on out.

So d19 of 12/12.. So far this plant hasn't had any problems, during the flowering stretch she has roughly trebled in size and still seems to be growing.. she has filled out quite nicely and buds are forming well too! So for anyone who plans to veg this strain for a longer period i would reccomend making sure you have enough space and getting plenty of training in otherwise things are going to get tight! On their next feed I am going to slightly increase the dose of nutrients and hopefully she continues to progress as well as she has!

Pics for this update were taken yesterday (d26-12/12) over the past week vertical growth has almost come to a halt although she has grown a little more then the other strains during this period.. she has started filling out her sites a bit more now and is starting to get a bit frosty too.. she still has a while to go yet though so I'm looking forward to seeing how gets on in these up and coming weeks.. she has a lot of side branching, creating quite a lot of bud sites so it looks like she is going to be quite a rewarding plant to be fair!

Week 5 of 12-12.. buds are starting to stack up now and she is beginning to get quite frosty.. she has quite a bitter but citrusy smell about her that's starting to get quite potent now.. dose of nutrients will be increased again before this week is out, looking forward to seeing her put some weight on now!

Sorry I have missed a week of this dairy I have had a lot on so i didn't get round to it.. since my last update though you can see that she has filled out quite a bit, is packing on the frost nicely.. and starting to get pretty sticky too.. she still has quite a bitter smell but it's starting to get quite stinky now, she doesn't have too much longer to go now though so I am looking forward to see how much weight she packs on during these last few weeks.
