Medellin X Apples & Bananas
Also known as: Medellin Apples & Bananas, Medellin x Apples and Bananas
Medellin X Apples & Bananas Strain Overview
Medellin X Apples & Bananas is a relatively new cannabis strain that represents a cross between the Colombian landrace strain Medellin and the popular modern hybrid Apples & Bananas. This strain combines the genetic heritage of South American sativa landraces with contemporary breeding techniques, resulting in a unique hybrid that showcases characteristics from both parent lines. The Medellin parent contributes its equatorial sativa lineage, while Apples & Bananas brings complex terpene profiles and balanced effects from its own mixed heritage.
The strain typically produces medium to large-sized buds with a dense structure characteristic of indica-dominant hybrids, yet maintains some of the elongated bud formation associated with sativa genetics. The coloration is often vibrant, featuring deep green foliage with occasional purple hues that become more pronounced during cooler nighttime temperatures in the flowering phase. The buds are usually heavily coated in trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance that indicates high cannabinoid production. The nugs are typically dense but not overly compact, allowing for good airflow during cultivation.
Notable features include its complex aroma profile that combines tropical fruit notes with earthy undertones, and its balanced effects that many users describe as both mentally uplifting and physically relaxing. The strain has gained attention among connoisseurs for its unique combination of traditional landrace genetics with modern breeding, though it remains less common than many mainstream commercial strains. As with many newer hybrid creations, the exact characteristics can vary between different breeders' versions of this cross.

Medellin X Apples & Bananas Strain Growing Information
Medellin X Apples & Bananas is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The flowering time typically ranges from 8 to 10 weeks when grown indoors. Outdoor plants are usually ready for harvest in late September to early October in the Northern Hemisphere. The strain can be grown both indoors and outdoors, though indoor cultivation allows better control over environmental factors. Plants tend to reach medium height, with indoor plants typically growing 90-120 cm tall and outdoor plants potentially reaching 150-180 cm. Expected yields are moderate to high, with indoor growers reporting approximately 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. The strain prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with moderate humidity and good airflow to prevent mold. Special considerations include providing adequate support during flowering as buds can become heavy, and monitoring nutrient levels carefully as the plants can be sensitive to overfeeding. The Medellin heritage may make the plants somewhat more resilient to heat than purely indica-dominant varieties.
