Critical Banana
Critical Banana
Also known as: Critical Banana Smoothie, Critical Bannana
Overview
Critical Banana is a hybrid cannabis strain that combines powerful genetics from Banana OG and Purple Punch with Critical Mass, which introduces robust traits from Skunk #1 and Afghani. This relatively new entrant to the cannabis market has rapidly gained popularity among connoisseurs and casual users alike as a unique blend that offers both a powerful impact and a delightful taste experience. Critical Banana is a hybrid strain with a slight indica dominance, estimated to be around 70% indica and 30% sativa. It derives indica traits from its Afghani lineage, known for producing relaxing and body-focused effects, while the Skunk #1 in its background provides some sativa characteristics, offering a mild cerebral uplift. The buds are dense and covered in a sticky layer of trichomes, with an intoxicating mix of sweet tropical fruits and a distinct note of ripe bananas, complemented by a subtle earthiness. The buds are rock hard, soaked in resin and often have a crystalline sheen due to the amount of trichomes.

Growing Information
For outdoor cultivation, growers in the northern hemisphere should sow seeds in April for harvest in mid-October, producing about 19.40-26.45 oz/plant (550-750 gr/plant). Indoors, the strain has a flowering time of 8-10 weeks and produces about 1.47-1.80 oz/ft² (450-550 gr/m²). The plants grow very short with thick, overlapping fingers and only start to stretch in late veg and early flower. They can take moderate to high feedings and produce medium to high yields. The compact buds will need support during the last weeks of flowering. Easy to grow and ideal for beginners.
