Strawnana
Strawnana
Also known as: Strawberry Banana
Overview
Strawnana, also known as Strawberry Banana, is an indica-dominant hybrid strain (70% indica/30% sativa) created through crossing Crockett's Banana Kush with a Strawberry phenotype of Bubble Gum. Developed by DNA Genetics in collaboration with Serious Seeds, this strain has earned widespread recognition since its debut, including first place at the 2015 High Times Cannabis Cup. Known for its heavy resin production and high-THC content, Strawnana packs a relaxing and happy high that leaves users feeling mentally stimulated but physically kicked. The strain has become a staple for both solo sessions and social smoke circles, serving as the genetic backbone for popular offshoots like Strawberry Banana Gelato.
The buds of Strawnana are visually striking, featuring flat oversized heart-shaped olive green nugs with light undertones, thick amber hairs and a frosty coating of chunky amber crystal trichomes. The buds are typically dense and medium to large in size, showcasing a vibrant green color with hints of purple, often covered in a generous layer of trichomes giving them a frosty appearance. This strain's exceptional resin production makes it particularly popular among extract producers and concentrate makers. The plant itself is considered easy to grow, making it an ideal choice for those new to cannabis cultivation or seeking a low-maintenance yet rewarding crop, thriving in both indoor and outdoor environments with proper care.
