Banana Kush

Banana Kush feminized originated in California and is among the most popular strains. It is derived from the spicy Skunk Haze and Ghost OG, two classic hybrid strains. Crossing these remarkable strains resulted in a landmark creation that spawned various other hybrids. 

All accounts of its creation indicate a conscious sensitivity toward the strain's therapeutic potential, making it attractive to recreational and medicinal consumers. This well-loved hybrid features delicious fruity flavors and impressive THC levels.

Its Indica properties are soothing and relaxing, with just enough Sativa to induce a cerebral buzz. As you might expect, Banana Kush produces the sweet, fruity flavors of ripe bananas.

However, it also carries some impressive traits of progenitors Skunk Haze and is a must-try for fans of the Kush family. 

Growing Information

Banana Kush requires a dry, warm climate to flourish. Nevertheless, this easy-grow strain can be cultivated indoors, outdoors, and in greenhouse environments. No prior experience is needed, but some experience goes a long way in producing lucrative harvests.

Furthermore, Banana Kush possesses a hardy growing profile that is resistant to mold, mildew, and pests. If you're not based in a sunny SoCal-like climate, it's preferable to grow Banana Kush seeds indoors.

That's because you can control light and warmth and grow your strain when it suits you. Keeping humidity levels low is the key to success, as too much moisture can promote powdery mildew.

We particularly recommend hydroponic growing for high-quality buds. While suited for beginners, some day-to-day maintenance is required.

Banana Kush's branches can grow bushy, making pruning and trimming particularly important among the lower branches to increase airflow and promote all-around light penetration.

In terms of training methods, you can apply both SOG and ScrOG and higher-intensity methods to great success. Banana Kush thrives outdoors in arid Mediterranean-like conditions. It is usually ready to harvest by the beginning of October.

Temperatures between 20°C and 27°C are ideal, although it is hardy enough to cope with some variation. If you can't meet these conditions, consider growing in a greenhouse or controlled conservatory.

Banana Kush feminized loves high-quality nutrients and is known to be greedy. As such, you needn't worry too much about overfeeding this strain.
The flowering time of the Banana Kush is relatively short, taking between 49 and 63 days.

Therefore, it's crucial to reduce room humidity to about 40% during this stage.

Characteristics

Feminized Banana Kush strain seeds grow into medium-height plants that grow between 120 to 160 cm indoors. However, it responds well to training techniques for super-compact spaces. Outdoors, you can expect heights of between 150 to 200 cm.

Banana Kush feminized has the potential to produce significant yields. When trimmed to promote bud growth, well-fed plants can produce between 450 and 550 grams per m² indoors and outdoors; you can expect between 550 and 710 grams per plant.

Banana Kush provides a long-lasting and mellow buzz that leans towards relaxation. The Sativa presence, however, is uplifting and induces a euphoria perfect for social settings.

As such, Banana Kush has become a favorite among recreational users who just want to feel happy, chit-chat, and have a good giggle. Just as Banana Kush relaxes and clears the mind, it also soothes the body.

Banana Kush offers a delightful aroma of bananas and earthy Kush notes. In terms of taste, this strain provides pleasing, sweet, fruity flavors, including ripe bananas and tropical tree fruit.

Regarding genetics, Banana Kush leans more toward Indica at 60%. The 40% Sativa, however, is the backbone of its balanced high. So, while the typical Indica effects like relaxation are present, there's no risk of couch-lock or lethargy.

This and more has made it a firm favorite among a substantial number of enthusiastic users across the world.
