Type and Genetics
Auto Strawberry Banana by DNA Genetics seeds are the culmination of a necessary crossbreeding for the creation of an autoflowering version of the legendary strain.
Expert growers will know that this crossbreeding involves the Strawberry Banana with Ruderalis, the wild strain that can flower faster than the rest.
Thus, this Indica-dominant hybrid with a compact size is complete: with large dark green leaves and a structure with low branches.
Growth
Auto Strawberry Banana DNA Genetics, also known as “Strawnana," is ideally about 50-80 cm tall. It is perfect for places with limited indoor growing space.
Outdoors, this plant grows without any spatial constraints, reaching heights of 90 – 100 cm. Being autoflowering, it's recommended to plant the seed directly into the final pot or ground, to avoid losing the plant's growth momentum caused by transplanting.
Aroma and Taste
One of the main advantages of the Auto Strawberry Banana strain is that there's a much shorter wait to access the flowers just like those of its non-autoflowering counterpart.
The Strawnana produces flowers with satisfying loads of fruity terpenes, banana, and strawberry, in addition to a tropical wood aftertaste that lingers for a good while.
Effect
With a percentage close to 20% THC in most phenotypes, the Auto Strawberry Banana strain produces euphoric, energy-filled effects, that raise anyone from their couch to engage in creative activities.
Toward the end, body relaxation takes over, eliminating tension and accumulated stress.
It's particularly recommended for promoting artistic creativity, whether it be through drawing, painting, music composition, or writing. It goes very well with a tutti-frutti ice cream while listening to “Lucia” by Little Richard.
Yield
Under optimal growth conditions, the Strawberry Banana Auto can yield harvests ranging from 550 – 600g/m2 in indoor grows.
Outdoors, the strain could offer flowering yields between 28 – 40g per plant.
Flowering
Auto Strawberry Banana strain has a full life cycle between 70 – 80 days. Growers must be attentive to not miss the opportunity to fertilize and provide the plant the necessary supplements for its growth and bud bulking.
Sativa/Indica Percentage
30% sativa – 70% Indica
Cannabinoids
La Huerta's Opinion
Auto Strawberry Banana plant is exceptionally quick with genes that give it a special and desired flavor.
It's recommended for growers with a knowledge level of intermediate to advanced who can make the most of its qualities to maximize the yields.
