I was thinking to myself the other day, "If you had to choose one strain that sticks out in your memory, one unique strain of cannabis you've experienced in your life that you just had to tell everyone about, which one would it be?"
Answer: Banana, circa 2007.
Banana's got everything! It packs the locomotive punch of a solid Trainwreck, but it rounds off with a simultaneous serving of the most soothing Sativa.
With even a small amount, you can float like a marshmallow in a pool of melted cocoa-butter while maintaining almost complete cognitive efficiency. It feels like you died and came back as a fantastic lovechild born from a mid-summer's romp involving Buddha, Einstein, and the Little Mermaid. Heck, maybe the Energizer Bunny was there too, 'cause it keeps going, and going, and going...
Aesthetics are key as well; it's ideal for vaporizing, especially when cured properly. The name comes from the scent of freshly cut banana, and the colors are similar to a just-picked version of the same fruit. On the bud's surface, a sparkly, vivid green interlaces with a sharp chartreuse. Pull it open, and a mushy layer of tanish hues lightens to an off-white as you look toward the stem. The trichs are not overt, but blunt rollers be warned: your fingers may become permanently glued to the table.
Texture? Density? If you run out of goose down or break your fancy foam setup, you could stuff a mattress with this strain. Stuffing a bowl wouldn't hurt either.
A little goes a long way, and a lot will render tropical vacations obsolete. I went about my life almost as usual, excepting that I felt an easy sense of empathy with everyone I spoke to. All that said, I wouldn't recommend it to a true beginner, unless you've got the next day off and a cupboard full of snacks at the ready.
I can't find it anymore, so if you do, email our blog so I can give you my mailing address. Seriously.
