Banana Kush Strain Overview

Just as a banana tree develops bunches of tempting fruits, the Banana Kush strain produces clusters of cannabinoid- and terpene-loaded flowers that smell similar to fresh bananas. 

Clinging onto the most desirable traits of its parents, Ghost OG and Skunk Haze, Banana Kush is a cultivar that provides a wallop of mellowness, intermingled with a soothing euphoric mind bath. Many users report this particular strain to be ideal if you are struggling with depression or stress. It may even enhance creative flair and stir up conversation in social settings.

Banana Kush Strain Dosage Recommendations

At an average reported THC level of 23%, but occasionally reaching upwards of 27%, Banana Kush is an indulgent choice for experienced consumers. With typically slightly sedating effects, beginners should exercise caution.
