This strain has grown and cloned herself!! She was just so easy and agreeable. Never did she ask for more than I offered and never did I worry about her health. She clones super easily and handles high humidity levels like a pro. She would have been easily 5 foot tall inside had I not cut her entire top. This is a great plant for a sog set up because her fan leaves tend to grow more on the inside taking up less space in the grow area. I will continue to grow this super fast, super potent, and amazingly flavorful plant for many cycles and seasons to come and since shes so fast she's a great economical plant as well.

Good but not for me in particular
An amazing addition to your nutrition cabinet. Nothing reversed my deficiency quicker and had no effect on the flavor of the fruit.
I preferred this to the fox farm but I like the organic grows. I haven't tried the non organic kind but there's no option for the organic line of these nutrients. Loved and will use again. I've already bought my 2nd bottle of bud candy.

Love the strain!!! It's now my all time favorite for flavor/potency. A friend of mine said she'd never experienced true, "sticky icky icky ", until she tried this strain (and it's not even cured yet) Not one issue from the grow, needs very few nutrients and grows easily. A great strain for high humidity areas. Potency is as good as it gets in my book and as for the flavor, it's by far the best tasting I've tried in my 40 years but that being said, she isnt cured and I pray she doesn't lose her delicious banana flavor. Quicker than all of my current sativa heavy hybrid autos, this girl flowered for the exact 9 weeks they suggested and even when I only veg for 3 weeks she was bigger than those autos as well. As for clones, well lets just say that even my new butt couldn't stop her from leaving a legacy. She had a stick break on accident, i stuck it in a cup of moist medium under the lights and she took!! She clones so easily that although I've only cloned two others I know that she's easy. Grow this and you wont be disappointed. This strain changed my mind on indica and photos, I'll keep her in my grow space for many seasons and cycles to come.

I'm so glad that this girl is so agreeable and low maintenance. From day 1 she never asked for anything more than I gave. Instead she would curl up at the fox farm veg stage nutes because she didn't enjoy the higher levels She prefers organic but thrives on minimal attention. We ended up cutting her top because she was so out of control with her growth and shes still the tallest I've grown to date (with her clones about to pass her up) Thrichome production is amazing. Shes covered like my gorilla glue and smells better. I am expecting a extremely high potency just by looking at the thrichome covered fan leaves. At the moment her scent is not at all banana like. It's got a very distinctive citrus scent on top of pine followed by fruit flowers. Her calyx are swelling and her darker color is beginning to become a more bright green as the parts of her that haven't seen light are now exposed. Her darkness diminished as she was exfoliated for one last time removing anything that was without thrichomes (and a few that did as well) . My canna worms are gonna be happy this month Shes actually quite hard for being on the airy side. She's not as open or airy as the breeders description suggested but she is overly dense either. Due to her heavy indica lineage she's got a very high bud to leaf ratio making her perfect for humid tropical climates or conditions. An airy disposition actually works well for our region. Her sister gold leaf ended up with a touch of bud rot because she was too tight and dense even for our indoor grow room. When it comes to cloning shes perfect for beginners. She practically clones herself lol. A broken end of a branch was placed into a cup of our coir medium and within a week under the lamps she had obviously taken root. So needless to say, its obvious by my 4 more flowering banana kush plants following her, that I love this strain. That says a lot since I've never ever tried her before and I chose her by reading descriptions and reviews. There's so much more I can and will add once the harvest is completed but I wanted to take a moment and give a good review and description. The genetics deserve the compliment. Reading the breeders description I was warned that it wasn't easy and that experienced growers should have no problem but I decided to try anyway and well apparently I got a good phenotype because she has been the least needy plant I've grown to date and so have been her clones. Her yield isn't gonna be as big as the gold leaf but itll still be great compared with the baby autos I've grown in the past. I'll write a full review from start to finish on the ILGM website as well as on my final entry after harvest/dry/cure but until then I felt as though this plant/strain is very under estimated and should be more popular. Especially with a 27% thc. Anyway, I'd recommend the Banana Kush feminized seeds. I got mine from ILGM seedbank because they have a 100% germination policy that replaces every seed of theirs that doesn't pop (I've already had 3 replaced with 5 more of each type) without any hassle. But that's my opinion and choice as everyone has their own preferences. They dont pay me for or even know that I'm writing this. 1/18/20

Some beautiful frost on that one!

MomnPoppaSeedcommented5 years ago
@Wicked_Stix,thanks, yes she's actually already showing thrichomes on bigger fan leaves. Her THC is supposed to be around 27% and CBD less than 1% and with an 8 week flower period I had to try this strain. I'd never heard of it b4 ordering but so far I'm glad I did Also clones like a champ. My first time trying I got 6 clones to take in a solo cup with damp dirt under lights Now I'm about to do s SOG with those. Wish we were neighbors, I'd give you a clone because we have more than our space will soon allow. Gotta love them photo!! Happy growing!!

Wicked_Stixcommented5 years ago
@MomnPoppaSeed, yeah she has some great trichomes for being early in flower. I have been wanting to try a banana strain and this might be the one. Can't wait to see what she does at harvest time. Best of luck finishing her up!

MomnPoppaSeedcommented5 years ago
@Wicked_Stix,thanks. She's young still so I'm anxious to find out just how good this strain really is. Never even heard of the name b4 getting the seeds but i feel like she will forever be a part of our grow cycles now because of her ability to clone so easily... Thanks for checking in hope to see you back again soon.

I will say it again.... Killer frost on that girl! She is definitely a good one.

MomnPoppaSeedcommented5 years ago
@Wicked_Stix, thanks gromie! I'm about to harvest now but I can say that the small branch I sampled from 1 week ago was already a heavy high so with the 20% amber she's showing now, shes gonna be good. And with all of the leaves left on her covered in thrichomes, she'll also make good meds.

Mouthwatering looking, gonna have some sick smoke from this :) Respect growmie

MomnPoppaSeedcommented5 years ago
@I_and_I, thank you and I'm hoping that she does not lose the fresh banana scent during cure. As for potency, she's supposed to average at 25-27% THC with less than 1% CBD so I can imagine her as an evening smoke, but who knows what curing will do.

@CrankledLarkus, thanks I'm very happy with this strain and the genetics I got with her. That's all anyone can hope for when growing their own, to get what we paid for and end up with what we wanted. I love her thrichomes :)
