Seb's take

Seb Silverback

Pungent fruit and citrus over an OG Kush backbone, the sort of nose that announces itself before the door opens. The high leans euphoric first, then eases into a relaxed, sleepy finish. Compact and bushy by nature, Fat Banana carries her bulk well — mostly in the cola, not the name.

Where it comes from

Banana crossed with OG Kush, Royal Queen Seeds setting a fruited, banana-forward parent against one of the sturdiest Kush backbones in the business. The OG lends the structure, the resin, and the weight; the Banana lends the name and the nose. At 70 percent Indica she leans to the body, though a little Sativa keeps her from settling entirely. Compact and bushy by habit, with one large central cola doing most of the work.

Nose & flavour

Pungent fruit and citrus over the OG backbone, the sort of nose that announces itself before the door opens. Ripe and loud, with the Kush earthiness grounding the sweeter notes. It does not travel discreetly, which is much the point of a plant named for its aroma rather than its manners.

The high

Euphoric first, then easing into a relaxed, sleepy finish, a lift that arrives before the weight settles. At 25 percent THC it carries genuine strength; approach the later stages as you would a staircase in the dark. An evening plant that starts brightly and ends in the armchair, without much say from you on the matter.

Growing it

Compact and bushy, forming one large dense main cola, though she takes training well to spread the load and lift the yield. Left alone she can reach 200cm; kept in hand she holds around 80 to 140cm indoors. Flowering wraps in a quick 56 to 70 days, seven to eight weeks, for 350 to 400 g/m². She carries her bulk in the cola rather than the frame, which makes her more manageable than her name suggests. Clean tools at harvest.
