Low THCHigh THC

Dirty Banana is lower THC than average.

Dirty Banana is a modern hybrid cannabis strain derived from the Banana OG genetic line. Cultivated for consistent performance, this variety reaches maturity after a flowering period of 61 days. It is assessed as a project of moderate cultivation difficulty, capable of thriving in both indoor and outdoor environments while reliably producing a high yield.

The chemical complexity of Dirty Banana is defined by a diverse terpene profile that begins with high concentrations of myrcene, followed by limonene, linalool, and caryophyllene. The profile continues with humulene, bisabolol, beta-pinene, guaiol, nerolidol, pinene, camphene, borneol, caryophyllene-oxide, terpinolene, and finally, trace levels of geraniol. This specific assembly of compounds characterizes the strain's sensory profile, resulting in a nuanced interaction of aromatic and flavor elements that reflects this broad chemical foundation.

With a THC-dominant cannabinoid profile measured at approximately 12 percent, this strain produces effects described as relaxed, happy, and uplifted. These characteristics make it a functional choice for users seeking relief from stress and physical pain, as well as those looking to utilize its sedative properties for sleep. To date, there are no notable offspring recorded in the genetic legacy of Dirty Banana.
