So I just started these Bruce Banner seedlings from ILGM.
I’m probably only gonna take one of these to flower, so I’m basically pheno hunting even though I’m likely not going to clone unless I find something amazing. I normally don’t do this but I got a killer deal on the Black Friday sale and got 20 of these seeds for the price of 10.
I wish I had the space to grow more and take them all to flower - unfortunately, I’m working with limited real estate in my tents.
Thanks for stopping by and checking out the diary!

Interesting to see here that after transplanting - these things will take off depending on containers size.
One I put into 3 gallon
One I put into 1 qt
One I kept in the solo cup
Obviously the 3 gallon container has taken off extensively.
I’m only taking one to flower at this point and giving away the other two to a friend with more flower tent space.

This is Bruce Banner week four of veg!
I’ve been absolutely blown away by the progress of this plant. I think it’s beating out anything I’ve grown as far as vegetative growth in the first month.
It’s at its seventh node - of growth. Nice big fan leaves that are at least 6 inches long, not including the stem.
So going forward this will just be the One Plant, I started out with three germinated seeds. I chose the strongest grower and gave away the other two, as I don’t have the space to take three of them into flower.
Also at this point I’m basically strain hunting for the best strain that fits my needs. That’s why I have so many diaries of lots of different strains and usually only have one or two plants of each.

Moving to flower room soon.
This thing is growing as fast as a hydro plant, it’s blowing my mind.
I’m worried it’s gonna be too tall once it stretches but we’ll see - can always super crop

Bruce Banner has been a joy to grow thus far!
Vigorous growth from the get go, probably the fastest grower I’ve seen in soil or coco in all my grows so far..
That said, I did start 3 and chose the faster grower and gave away the other 2.. days officially switched to 12/12 on February 12

She’s growing and stretching every day.. bud sites are starting I take shape.. look overall very healthy.
I’m blown away by this Bruce Banner, it is about 10 to 14 days younger than the Durban’s I’m growing in the same tent yet the banner is taller and bigger.
Week 3 flower major defoliation coming up within the next week.

She’s pretty much done stretching, looking a little leggy at this point but I just did the week 3 of flower defoliation.. hopefully she fills in well from here on out.
Started fox farms soluble trio on these plants in flower this week..

Pretty much just at the point where growth has stopped and then buds gonna start fattening and fattening and hopefully fattening even more!
Upgraded lights this week to two spider farmer SF-2000s for the 4x4 area.. hopefully they live up to expectations.

Catching a few spots of WPM as temps and rain both increasing around me.. gonna move a dehumidifier in the room to help ambient humidity
Getting some color in buds- reminds me of blue dream I grew last go round..
Still haven’t nailed the terpene profile, earthy for sure tho.. maybe like some evergreen notes as well
Hopefully just a few more weeks

Like I touched on previously, I am only going to be using ILGM for One or two strains in the future. I’ve had a run of Hermies and or bananas from so many of their seeds lately it’s just not acceptable at this point. I really truly believe they have some solid genetics in some cases, but maybe they’re rushing on some of the newer strains they’re putting out. I don’t know but I’m moving towards using different banks at this point. Aside from the issue during the grow I also noticed the last round of seeds I got from them maybe 30-40% were visibly immature. No striping, which I know is normal and some strains but the real obvious sign was they were not dark enough like they were super light green almost approaching a white color.
I’ll use them for pure indica which is a power house, gold leaf and maybe blue dream.
Then again I’ve got a tent full of those clones anyhow 😉
