STRNG Seeds – Big Bud

Big Bud is famous for producing exceptionally large, dense flowers with thick colas and minimal leaf-to-flower ratio — making harvests efficient and impressive.

It has a deep, musky scent with subtle notes of sweet spice and earth. The aroma intensifies late in flower and lingers post-cure.

The flavor is rich and smooth, with earthy undertones and hints of sweet spice or grape depending on the phenotype. It finishes with a mellow, rounded profile.

Water when the top inch feels dry. Avoid letting the medium get soggy, especially during flower, to preserve root health and flavor.

It’s known for striking a balance between volume and quality — while other high-yielders may lose flavor, Big Bud maintains richness without sacrificing structure.

It develops a sturdy central stalk with thick lateral branches, each capable of holding massive buds. Support may be needed due to flower weight.

Yes. Indoors, it consistently produces oversized colas and can fill out grow tents quickly when trained properly and given ample space.

It typically reaches 90–130 cm, with moderate stretch during flowering. Training can keep it compact and productive.

It has a moderate-to-strong musk and spice aroma that builds by week 7. Odor control is recommended, especially in enclosed spaces.

It offers more than just size — the flavor is earthy and mellow, and the buds cure well, maintaining both bag appeal and smoke quality over time.

It’s moderately resistant but needs good airflow due to bud density. Avoid excess humidity during late flower to protect against mold.

Water when the top inch feels dry. Avoid letting the medium get soggy, especially during flower, to preserve root health and flavor.

When trichomes are mostly cloudy with a few amber and pistils have darkened. This preserves earthy-sweet aromatics without over-ripening.

Yes. Organic inputs support slow, steady growth and help preserve the strain’s natural earth-spice aroma in both flower and cure.

Outdoors, it can stretch to 180–220 cm depending on conditions — often requiring structural support to hold up its weighty colas.

Yes. It’s forgiving of mistakes, handles basic training well, and offers visible rewards — making it beginner-friendly while still impressing seasoned cultivators.

High-intensity full-spectrum LEDs or HPS work well. This strain thrives under strong light and rewards canopy penetration with dense colas.

Flowering usually takes 8–9 weeks indoors. Some phenotypes benefit from an extra week to tighten calyxes and boost resin content.

LST, topping, and SCROG are effective. Managing the canopy early helps prevent floppiness later when branches fill with heavy flowers.

Yes. Due to the sheer size of its buds, support stakes or trellis nets are often necessary in mid-to-late flower to avoid stem breakage.
