The Banana Punch strain is a rare hybrid known for its powerful genetics. A cross between Banana OG and Purple Punch, the strain has heavy-hitting effects and a complex flavor profile. The strain contains about 18% THC and is popular for both its recreational and medicinal potential. Banana Punch is originally crafted by Symbiotic Genetics but is now popularly cultivated by Jungle Boys, amongst other cannabis producers.
Banana Punch Strain
The Banana Punch strain has rounded nugs that are olive green in color with hints of purple throughout. Dark orange hairs cover the bud, along with a blanket of crystal-like trichomes.
After cracking open the dense nugs, the scent of crisp citrus and just a hint of rich banana fills the room. The banana is subtle in the flavor of the strain. Users will be able to detect the taste of tropical pineapple with a skunky berry flavor. The fruity palate is one characteristic of Banana Punch that makes it so popular.
The complex flavor and aroma of the strain come from the terpene profile inherited from the strain’s parents. Limonene is the dominant terpene in the hybrid strain. The terpene gives the strain its citrus flavor. Additionally, limonene possesses anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-stress, and possible disease-preventing properties.

Banana Punch Experience
The Banana Punch strain’s effects may be slightly sedative. The strain may give off feelings of deep relaxation in both the body and the mind. The effects may be slow to feel, but once they kick in, the result is a potentially heavy-hitting high.
Like the terpene profile, the effects of Banana Punch come from its genetics. The Banana OG parent has a reputation as a “creeper,” resulting in a couch-locked state of relaxation. The Banana OG is used by some patients to treat health issues such as muscular pain, appetite loss, and insomnia. The Purple Punch, the Banana Punch’s second parent, is an indica-dominant hybrid. The effects of the Purple Punch strain are a potential “one-two punch” to the head and body. Some use the strain to aid in managing nausea, stress, minor body aches, and sleeplessness.
