Fat Banana
Also known as: Fat Banana Kush
Fat Banana Strain Overview
Fat Banana is a potent indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain developed by Royal Queen Seeds through an intensive selective breeding program. Created by crossing OG Kush with Chiquita Banana, this strain represents a genetic makeup of approximately 70% indica and 30% sativa. Originally bred to enhance the most desirable characteristics of Banana OG while eliminating its shortcomings, Fat Banana has established itself as a premium strain among cannabis connoisseurs and collectors seeking unique genetics. The strain's name reflects both its parentage and the substantial size of its buds, which develop into chunky, resinous nuggets with exceptional trichome production.
Fat Banana is distinguished by its impressive potency, with THC levels consistently reaching 25% or higher when grown under optimal conditions. The strain exhibits a 'stretch indica' growth pattern, forming long, dense main colas that benefit from training techniques. Its buds are characterized by their pale green coloration with orange pistils and abundant sticky amber crystal trichomes. The strain's exceptional resin production and dense bud structure make it highly valued for both recreational and extraction purposes. Despite being indica-dominant, Fat Banana can grow taller than typical indica varieties, developing substantial central colas that create visually striking plants.

Fat Banana Strain Growing Information
Fat Banana is considered moderately challenging to grow, requiring 7-8 weeks flowering time indoors with yields of 350-400g/m² under 600W lighting. The strain develops a bushy structure with a prominent central cola that may require support. Indoor plants typically reach 80-140cm in height, while outdoor cultivation in warmer climates can produce plants of 170-200cm yielding 450-500g per plant. Harvest occurs in late September for outdoor grows. The strain responds well to training techniques and benefits from organic cultivation methods. Plants require adequate support due to heavy, resinous buds and may need frequent light/medium-strength nutrient solutions. Optimal growing conditions include maintaining temperatures around 18-20°C during drying with 58-62% relative humidity to preserve terpene content.
