Honey Bananas OG
Also known as: Honey Bananas, Honey Banana OG
Honey Bananas OG Strain Overview
Honey Bananas OG is a hybrid cannabis strain developed through the crossbreeding of Banana OG and Honey Boo Boo. This strain emerged in the early 2010s from the collaboration of breeders at Exotic Genetix and Archive Seed Bank, who sought to combine the tropical fruit flavors of Banana OG with the sweet, honey-like characteristics of Honey Boo Boo. The resulting cultivar has gained popularity in both medical and recreational cannabis markets for its balanced effects and distinctive flavor profile.
The strain typically produces dense, conical buds with a structure reminiscent of its Banana OG parentage. The flowers exhibit a vibrant green coloration with occasional purple hues that may appear under cooler growing conditions. A thick coating of trichomes gives the buds a frosty appearance, while orange pistils provide visual contrast. The aroma is immediately noticeable upon breaking open the buds, releasing a complex bouquet that combines sweet, fruity notes with earthy undertones.
Honey Bananas OG is considered a relatively stable hybrid that expresses consistent characteristics across different phenotypes. The strain has become particularly noted for its ability to provide both cerebral stimulation and physical relaxation, making it suitable for various times of day. While not as widely distributed as some mainstream commercial strains, Honey Bananas OG has developed a dedicated following among connoisseurs who appreciate its unique flavor combination and balanced effects.

Honey Bananas OG Strain Growing Information
Honey Bananas OG is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, making it more suitable for intermediate to experienced growers. The plants typically flower within 8-10 weeks indoors and are ready for harvest by early to mid-October when grown outdoors. Indoor yields average 14-16 ounces per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 16-20 ounces per plant under optimal conditions.
The strain adapts well to both indoor and outdoor cultivation but thrives in controlled indoor environments where temperature and humidity can be carefully managed. Plants tend to remain medium in height, usually reaching 3-5 feet indoors and 5-7 feet outdoors. Honey Bananas OG responds well to training techniques such as topping and low-stress training (LST) to maximize yields.
Special considerations include maintaining proper airflow to prevent mold in the dense buds and monitoring nutrient levels carefully, as the plants can be sensitive to overfeeding. The strain prefers a Mediterranean-like climate when grown outdoors, with plenty of sunlight and moderate humidity. Growers should be prepared for the strong aroma during flowering, which requires adequate carbon filtration in indoor setups.
