About Strawberry Banana

Strawberry Banana was created in a collaboration between DNA Genetics and Serious Seeds, crossing Banana Kush with Strawberry Bubblegum (a Strawberry Cough x Bubblegum hybrid). The strain captured the best of both parent worlds: the sweet, creamy banana aroma of Banana Kush and the fruity, berry notes of Strawberry Bubblegum. The result is a strain with a complex fruit-forward profile that genuinely tastes like strawberry-banana smoothie. The buds are dense and resinous with light green and purple hues. Strawberry Banana won the 2016 High Times Cannabis Cup and became one of the best-selling strains in DNA Genetics' catalog.
