Banana Pie
Banana Pie
Also known as: Banana Pie #14
Overview
Banana Pie is a rare indica dominant hybrid strain (75% indica/25% sativa) created through crossing the classic Banana Kush X Cherry Pie strains. This dessert-inspired strain has gained popularity among cannabis enthusiasts for its distinctive flavor profile and balanced effects. Banana Pie packs a sweet cherry berry flavor with hints of fresh bananas and nuttiness upon exhale. The aroma is much like a spicy banana muffin, with hints of pungent earth and spices as the nugs are burned. This bud has fluffy airy bright neon green nugs with dark amber hairs and coating of frosty golden amber crystal trichomes. Multiple breeders have worked with this genetics, including Clone Only Strains and Crockett Family Farms, with some variations existing in the lineage. Because multiple breeders use the Banana Pie name, verify lineage on the seed pack or dispensary label and ask for a certificate of analysis listing terpenes when possible. Follow the 'nose knows' rule emphasized by cannabis science writers: pick the jar whose aroma resonates with you, because terpene composition not only sets flavor but meaningfully shapes effect perception beyond the THC number.

As for yield, you can expect a generous indoor harvest of around 500-600 grams per square meter. Though the Old School Key Banana Pie is classified as having an intermediate difficulty level, it rewards growers with its stunning buds and substantial yield, making it a great choice for those looking to take their skills to the next level.
