Banana Rose
Also known as: Banana Rose OG
Banana Rose Strain Overview
Banana Rose is a hybrid cannabis strain that combines genetics from Banana Kush and a phenotype of OG Kush. The strain emerged in the early 2010s from California's cannabis breeding scene, where breeders sought to create a strain with the tropical fruit notes of Banana Kush and the classic structure and potency of OG Kush. While its exact breeding history isn't fully documented in public seed banks, Banana Rose has gained recognition among connoisseurs for its balanced effects and distinctive aromatic profile.
The strain typically produces medium-sized, dense buds with a structure reminiscent of its OG Kush lineage. The flowers display a vibrant green coloration with occasional purple hues that may appear under cooler growing conditions. A generous coating of trichomes gives the buds a frosty appearance, while orange pistils weave through the floral clusters. The buds are known for their sticky resin production, which contributes to both the strain's potency and its aromatic complexity.
Banana Rose is characterized by its unique terpene profile that blends fruity, floral, and earthy notes. The strain's name accurately reflects its primary aromatic characteristics, with prominent banana and rose notes complemented by underlying kush undertones. While not as widely commercialized as some mainstream hybrids, Banana Rose has maintained a dedicated following among users who appreciate its balanced effects and complex flavor profile.

Banana Rose Strain Growing Information
Banana Rose is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-10 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests ready by mid to late October in the Northern Hemisphere. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions. The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor environments, though it prefers a Mediterranean-like climate when grown outside. Plants exhibit a medium height with a bushy structure similar to OG Kush phenotypes, requiring some pruning for optimal light penetration. Banana Rose responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training. Growers should monitor humidity levels during flowering to prevent mold, as the dense buds can be susceptible in humid conditions.
