Overview
Banana Cough is a sativa-dominant hybrid cannabis strain that has emerged as a standout cultivar in the diverse cannabis landscape. The strain is a cross between Banana Kush and Strawberry Cough, resulting in a unique blend of sweet banana and tropical fruit flavors. This hybrid brings together the best characteristics of both parent strains, combining the relaxing properties of its indica lineage with the energizing effects of its sativa heritage. The strain gets its name from the combination of its tropical banana flavor profile and the cough-inducing properties inherited from its Strawberry Cough parent.
In terms of appearance, Banana Cough typically showcases vibrant hues of green and yellow, mirroring the colors of its fruity namesake. The buds are densely packed and adorned with a glistening layer of trichomes, underscoring the strain's potency. The visual allure is complemented by fluffy, pepper-shaped forest green nuggets with bright undertones and thin orange hairs. The strain is known for its distinctive aroma that mimics the essence of ripe bananas, creating an olfactory experience that is both enticing and comforting, with additional nuanced undertones that contribute to its aromatic richness.

Growing Information
Cultivating Banana Cough can be a rewarding experience for growers, as the strain typically demonstrates robust growth characteristics with a moderate level of difficulty, making it accessible to both novices and seasoned cultivators. The strain can be grown both indoors and outdoors, with indoor growers often opting for hydroponic systems to optimize growth. The Sea of Green (SOG) method can be particularly effective for this strain, maximizing space and yield. Outdoor cultivation benefits from a warm, sunny climate and well-draining soil. The plants will be tall and may take a little longer to finish compared to some strains, but the expressions are worth the wait. Regular pruning and training techniques like LST (low-stress training) can help improve airflow and light penetration, resulting in healthier plants and more abundant buds. With proper care, Banana Cough produces dense, aromatic flowers that are a joy to harvest.
