How to grow Auto Banana Blaze
Taste
Seb's take
Auto Banana Blaze does not disguise its parentage — sweet, fruity, unmistakably banana on the nose. The high is happy, energetic and creative, pleasantly uplifting rather than heavy, and potent enough for a plant this easy to grow.
Where it comes from
Dutch Passion offer this as an autoflowering version of Banana Blaze, the record naming that single line as her parentage, so I will keep the pedigree where the breeder set it. What she brings is a hardy, easy plant with a unique smell and taste, Indica-leaning by the house's account, and quite potent as autoflowers go. A characterful auto built around one very distinctive trait, and confident enough to name itself for it.
Nose & flavour
Sweet and fruity, and unmistakably banana, a flavour the record itself calls unmistakable and one every Indica devotee is meant to be fascinated by. There is no mistaking her; the banana leads clearly, sweet and full, with the fruit rounding it out. A genuinely distinctive nose, and the sort a breeder is right to build a name around.
The high
Happy, energetic and creative, a pleasantly uplifting and euphoric experience rather than a heavy one, which the record notes goes beyond her banana charm. This is a bright, engaged sort of high, good company for the day and its projects. At 16 to 22% THC there is solid substance behind the cheer, potent for an easy autoflower without ever tipping into anything overwhelming.
Growing it
Eighty-four days in flower, on the longer side for an auto, returning a solid four hundred to five hundred grams the square metre. Height is not recorded, so I will leave her frame undescribed. She is a hardy plant and easy to grow, which paired with her distinctive flavour makes her an approachable choice for a grower after something out of the ordinary. At 16 to 22% THC she is potent for the type. A characterful, forgiving auto.
