I love this Colorado Classic! It has everything I want in a smoke. Looks great, smells good, tastes fine, and most certainly does the job! Bruce Banner is kinda heavy hitting and fast acting, coming on with a heavy buzz that lingers off slowly.
This has been my favorite strain to date!!
It was originally suggested to me by the dispensary budtender to help me sleep. I found that my brain got way too stimulated for it to work for that - so for awhile I put it away, and almost forgot about it in favor of my Purple Kush which was my bedtime go-to at the time (now I've switched to Purple Candy which puts me out like a light).
Then one day, after a minor surgery, I wanted some extra pain relief, but didn't want to get knocked out. I remembered the Bruce Banner, and put a bit in my one-hitter just to see how it would go. I was so pleasantly surprised at the result!
As the puff sunk in, I found myself feeling extremely energetic and uplifted, with no slowed down thinking or couch lock. I felt extremely creative, and started cleaning my room to burn off some of the energy, and wait for some kind of inspiration for a creative project.
I also felt very social, which is an unusual effect for cannabis to have on me whether it's sativa or indica. I called up friends, chatted online, Skyped...it was great fun! I also ended up diving into a photography project that turned out exceedingly well.
Whenever I'd feel myself slowing down, I'd just having another small hit off my bat, and I'd be back up and running.
Recovering from that surgery was one of the most enjoyable weekends I've spent in a really long time!
I've tried smoking a regular amount, and for me, it just wasn't my favorite. But for me, micro-dosing Bruce Banner is my secret weapon for when I need an emotional lift (which has been brilliant for when I start down into a depressive slump), when I want a creative rush, or just want a really relaxing time with no couch lock.
Your mileage may vary as to dosage, of course! This one was a hidden gem for me.
I’m a fairly new smoker, second time around. First time in the 70’s. What a pleasant difference. Treating pain now. Love the Bruce Banner! Great for pain relief. Creative, euphoric feeling after about 30 minutes. Able and willing to clean house and feel pleasantly distracted in my mind! Just a few thoughts from a Grandma.
A friend of mine gave me 1gram just to taste. So, as usual, I take a puff or two before bed. Well, it took about 5 minutes and my heart started to race and I felt so energetic I wanted to clean my home....top to bottom !! The flavor mild, no harsh burn of the throat, burned quickly. I took another couple of puffs and soon I became axious, light headed, and a bit dizzy. It took me three hours to finally fall asleep. I think this strain would be great for daytime use for someone who needs a little extra "umphf" to get things done. This high strung Granny is old school and I do prefer the indica to hybrids but thought Id at least try it out. Its not for me though.

Additional Notes: I have had a few people tell me this was one strain I really needed to try and damn were they on point!
Appearance Rating: 5.00
Appearance Description: These beautiful and vibrant green, crystal covered flowers are perfectly formed. They have big fat calyx and deep redish brown pistils. They, as with all buds from L'Eagle, were also dried and manicured very well.
Taste Rating: 5.00
Taste Description: The flavor on this strain is truly delicious. You get a sweet, earthy funk with slight hints of fuel. The sweet earthy flavor is very distinct on the exhale and as it sits on your pallet you can detect sweetness.
Effects Rating: 5.00
Effects Description: This sativa dominant hybrid has great effects. I always enjoy the relaxation and euphoria an indica brings, but fear the couch lock. With this one, you'll be left with plenty of energy while being able to enjoy some of its indica traits. For that reason, this would be a great strain for anyone seeking daytime relief.
Overall Rating: 5.00
Overall Summary: Very glad go have listened to my friends on this one. Everything about this strain was fantastic. L'Eagle being the ones to cultivate this batch probably made it that much better. However, with looks, effects, and a taste like this, I'm sure it is delicious wherever it comes from.

This is top notch. I had to stop after two hits from a pipe. The high came on fast and affected both my head and body. While walking, my legs felt like they were three feet ahead of my body. I felt super relaxed and happy. Just when I thought the buzz was ending, it came on strong. I was so high that I had a hard time doing simple tasks such as grinding coffee. I was laughing at the mess I was making before I just gave up.
I will parrot others and call Banner fruity tasting and that it has a powerful sativa high that may or may not be green. One thing is for sure - Bnr will become your friend. This one excels for me. Also give Flo a try. ns
Holy balls! What a strain! 6/5 stars at least! It has an odd, somewhat chemical, sweet aroma and the buds are very sticky. I loaded this into my Solo and hooked it up to a small bong. The taste was far less jarring than the smell, very earthy with some diesel notes. The high was pretty straightforward in the initial stages. I found it very relaxing, and that it greatly improved my experience of eating the cheap take out I had picked up in anticipation of not being able to cook while high. This strain is a creeper, though, and after a while I found myself very euphoric and uplifted. I got the urge to get a cup of tea and plunk on my banjo. I feel that this strain's high is best described as one that can be enjoyed in very many ways. I felt the strong body effects, relaxation and anxiety relief of an indica, and the mood elevation and creativity of a sativa. This is the kind of strain that is AMAZING for depression, social anxiety, and social recreational use.
