A cultivar called Banana Kush has at least two different origin tales.
The breeders at Cali Kush assert that their Banana Kush is the result of crossing a male Banana with the well-known OG Kush. A cultivar with a creamy banana flavor and the sedative properties associated with OG Kush was created as a result of this genetic fusion.
Another tale is presented by Crockett Family Farms. The growers there assert that Banana Kush originated from a specific Ghost OG phenotype of OG Kush that was bred with a Skunk x Haze hybrid. While Skunk x Haze has a stellar reputation since the 1970s, Ghost OG reportedly had stable genetics for almost nine years at the time of breeding. Banana Kush got its name due to the subtle banana aroma.
No matter where it came from, Banana Kush unquestionably has California OG Kush genetics and has banana flavors and aromas.
Banana Kush should be grown indoors with lots of light and regular trimming, according to breeders. Although the strain requires some skill to grow, dedicated growers are rewarded in eight to nine weeks with long, resinous buds.
