Banana Moon Pie
Also known as: Banana Moonpie
Banana Moon Pie Strain Overview
Banana Moon Pie is a modern hybrid cannabis strain developed by crossing Banana OG with Moon Pie. The strain emerged in the late 2010s as part of the dessert-themed cannabis trend, combining the tropical characteristics of Banana OG with the balanced effects of Moon Pie. Breeders sought to create a strain with pronounced banana flavor while maintaining a well-rounded hybrid experience suitable for both recreational and potential therapeutic applications.
The strain typically produces dense, conical buds with a structure that leans slightly indica-dominant. The flowers display various shades of green with occasional purple hues, often covered in a thick layer of trichomes that give them a frosty appearance. Orange pistils weave through the buds, creating visual contrast. The aroma profile is complex, with the banana-forward scent being immediately noticeable upon breaking apart the buds.
Banana Moon Pie has gained popularity among cannabis enthusiasts for its balanced effects and distinctive flavor profile. While not as widely available as some mainstream strains, it has developed a dedicated following in certain cannabis markets, particularly in regions where dessert strains are popular. The strain represents a successful combination of flavor-focused breeding with functional hybrid effects.
