Banana OG
Banana OG
Also known as: Banana Cream OG, Banana OG Kush, OG Banana
Overview
Banana OG is an indica-dominant hybrid strain created from the careful crossbreeding of OG Kush and Banana Kush, featuring 70% indica and 30% sativa genetics. This strain emerged from cannabis-rich regions of California, particularly Humboldt County and southern parts of the state, where skilled breeders successfully combined the tropical sweetness of its Banana lineage with the legendary potency of OG Kush genetics.
Physically, Banana OG produces dense, chunky, and moderately sticky buds with a compact structure that are covered in a frosty layer of trichomes. The buds display shades of light green, with a few purple/blue specs, covered in crystals like frost, making them visually striking for both consumers and cultivators. True to its name, Banana OG has a prominent and unmistakable aroma of ripe bananas, with the scent being sweet and tropical, with hints of spice and earthiness.
This strain has earned recognition for its potent effects that slowly creep up on the user, earning it the nickname 'creeper,' with effects that sneak up on you and continuously build. The unique combination of high potency and distinctive banana-like aroma has made Banana OG a memorable strain for both connoisseurs and casual users seeking deep relaxation and therapeutic benefits.

Growing Information
Banana OG is moderately challenging to grow, making it best suited for intermediate or experienced cultivators, requiring careful attention to environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, and light cycles. The strain is reportedly easy to grow either indoors or outdoors, with a 49-56 day flowering cycle (7-8 weeks indoors). Indoor growers can expect yields around 600 grams per square meter, while outdoor grows typically produce up to 600 grams per plant. Banana OG grows to a medium height, typically 3 to 6 feet indoors and taller outdoors, with a bushy structure and dense foliage. The ideal temperature is between 70-80 degrees Fahrenheit, with humidity levels of approximately 40-50% during vegetative phase, decreasing to 30-40% during flowering. Regular pruning and training are essential to allow light and airflow to reach lower parts of the plant. Outdoor harvest typically occurs around the end of September.
