Strain Review

Coming from the legendary Kush family, Banana Kush has made its lineage proud. This classic, old school strain gives a strong Indica body high with potent euphoria and mood regulation from its Sativa parentage.

A higher dose can lead to drowsiness after a few hits and then sedation after a few hours. Banana Kush is generally known for providing a stress-free state. Its enticing aroma and luscious flavor add to the overall experience that is characteristic of its quintessential high. Classic as it may be, It has proven to be a strain that people keep on coming back to regardless if you’re a baby boomer, gen X, or millennial. Read on to see what makes this strain so special.

Origins of the Banana Kush Strain

A West Coast baby, Banana Kush is proudly bred by BSB farms. It is the progeny of Ghost OG and Skunk Haze. Its parentage already boasts of celebrity status in the cannabis community, and it is no wonder that their hybrid displays a plethora of benefits that have improved the lives of many who swear by it. Banana Kush is a 60-40 Indica-dominant hybrid. However, it does not necessarily just benefit those that prefer the soothing component of typical Indica strains. It brilliantly allows its Sativa element to work beautifully to clear the mind and allow for ideas and inspiration to come through. All these works together to create a calm and restful atmosphere.

Aroma and Appearance

Banana Kush buds are unique in their own right. They are a very bright green that has striking streaks of yellow mixed in with brass colored pistils. The aroma and flavor of Banana Kush is one of its characteristics that draw users into the strain. It smells just like its name, bananas. Its taste is particularly fruity, giving you a lot of fresh banana goodness with hints of juicy berries too. It leaves the tongue and palate with a delightfully sweet aftertaste that is just as delectable as its original flavor. Also, it’s a really great smoke. Banana Kush is smooth and gentle to the throat. If there’s an appropriate adjective, it may be glassy or satin-like. You won’t experience the customary coughing fit here, just a chill, relaxing vibe.
