Banana Punch (Barney's Farm)

Description

Banana Punch Strain Info

Banana Punch comes from a breeder who knows how to make innovative crosses of the world’s most sought-after and respected lines. Containing 55% Indica and 45% Sativa genetics, rest assured that the resulting plant takes the best from both worlds and creates a whole that’s so much more than the sum of its parts.

Genetics

Both parents of Banana Punch – Banana OG and Purple Punch – come from the OG Kush lineage – arguably the most prolific source of modern medicinal hybrids. Both were selected for their outstanding terpene profiles, while Purple Punch also imbues the cross with exquisite purple and orange colors against the vibrant dark-green background.

Flowering Time

Another thing that breeders at Barney’s Farm tirelessly work on is making sure that their strains do their thing in as short a time as possible. With Banana Punch, they’ve managed to bring down the flowering time to 60-65 days, allowing outdoor growers to harvest her by the end of September.

Yields

By selecting the most productive phenotypes and stabilizing the result, the breeder managed to create seeds whose yields are anything but average. Indoors, you can harvest up to 600-650g/m² (2-2.1oz/ft²), while outdoors, the plants are even more generous and bring as much as 1.5kg (3.3lb) each.

Effects

The effects of Banana Punch are strong but in a friendly, unthreatening way. The main theme is an all-pervading relaxation in the body, accompanied by a happy, euphoric sensation in the head. With a mindset like this, you can just kick back and do nothing or let the creative side of you take the wheel.

Medical Properties

As expected from an OG Kush descendant, Banana Punch is equally effective at treating ailments of the body and the mind. The warm-blanket type of relaxation can be soothing for all kinds of aches and pains as well as spasms, while mood-lifting properties may help those suffering from depression, anxiety, and stress.

THC and CBD Levels

Although the manufacturer does not disclose the exact figures, you can expect THC content of over 20%, as well as a hefty presence of CBD.

Smell and Taste

The terpene profile of this delectable strain is dominated by limonene and pinene, with a lesser presence of myrcene and caryophyllene. It’s a minor miracle that these terpenes – which aren’t really that unique in themselves – combine into an aroma of ripe bananas and other juicy fruit growing in the tropics. The taste of smoke is that of earth and sweet and sour citrus fruits.

Good to Know

Banana Punch is a sturdy strong plant that is completely versatile and adapts to any setup and style of cultivation. Indoor growers will appreciate her manageable height of 110cm (less than 4 feet), while outdoors, you have the luxury of growing an almost 7-foot (200cm) tree with correspondingly bountiful yields.

• This strain can be grown even in cool climates
• It performs best as a trained, multi-branch bush
• Plants will benefit from growers removing popcorn buds from the lowermost third

Banana Punch Seeds

Banana Punch seeds that are available for sale at Herbies are feminized, meaning that practically all of them will grow into female plants and bring you a generous harvest of delectable buds.
