Still probably my favorite all-around strain ... not just for the smoke, but this strain produces some of the prettiest buds ... full, pine cone shaped, lighter green ... and when the canopy is evened out, it looks like a beautiful little bud forest! The smell on this strain is very nice ... definitely smells like strawberries. The frost doesn't seem to get super thick - but the potency is still there regardless.
I'm growing this strain right now for my first grow! I was a bit disappointed to hear you didn't find this strain very strong the first time you grew it since others have said otherwise. I'm wondering if you aren't letting your flowers go long enough, I know more amber trichomes should make a more powerful high. I'm a noob so take it for what it's worth but just a thought
@Nigs4200, first ... I appreciate you taking the time to write out your thoughts - not everyone does :) I think you actually misunderstood ... out of all the plants I'd grown so far (around 8, I think), the Strawberry Banana was the BEST out of all of them. It's actually the only plant that gives me a noticeable buzz ... it's my favorite at the moment. The strawberry banana also produced the most attractive buds, at least in my opinion ... they were a bit airy - but they puffed out nice like little pine cones. As for the trichomes, the general consensus is that more amber = more sedative ... I like a "speedier" high (better for creative activities, like playing guitar) - but not a paranoid high ... so, I try to go for as much cloudy trichomes as I can (some amber is fine - just don't want much of the glassy trichomes). In either case, I wish you best of luck on your grow - I'm sure you will enjoy this strain :)
