Also known as: Banana Cream Cookies
Banana Cookies Strain Overview
Banana Cookies is a popular indica-dominant hybrid strain developed by Advanced Seeds, created from the genetic cross between Banana and Girl Scout Cookies (GSC). This strain emerged as part of the wider movement toward dessert-inspired cannabis varieties that became prominent in the 2010s. The strain combines the tropical sweetness of banana genetics with the legendary potency and cookie-dough flavors of GSC, resulting in a unique dessert-forward hybrid that has gained significant popularity among both recreational and medicinal users. Banana Cookies produces dense, resinous buds with striking visual characteristics including yellowish-orange hues, bright orange pistils, and heavy trichome coverage that gives the flowers a frosty, crystalline appearance. The strain's compact structure inherits traits from its Cookies lineage while maintaining the tropical terpene profile associated with banana-labeled genetics. Users report that Banana Cookies delivers a balanced experience with both cerebral and physical effects, making it suitable for various consumption times though many prefer it for evening use due to its relaxing properties.
