Growing Tips for Banana Diesel
Banana Candy plants are easy to grow, even if it is your first time cultivating your own cannabis plants. Intermediate and master-level growers shouldn’t have any issues bringing this strain to fruition. You can grow Banana Diesel both indoors and outdoors under the correct conditions. Indoor grows tend to be easier because the conditions can be controlled from beginning to end. These plants require a warm, sunny, and semi-humid environment to really reach their peak. Think of California in the summer; that is the kind of environment you should be trying to replicate indoors. If you are planning to grow outdoors, you will need to do so in the summertime to provide the plant(s) with the most sunlight, best air quality, and correct temperatures and humidity for this strain to thrive. If you live in an area where you have good weather year-round, then you can cultivate this crop year-round as long as the nighttime temperatures don’t drop too low. These plants grow medium to tall, so you will need to clear out enough space for these plants to stretch out. The ideal temperature for these plants is between 70-85 degrees Fahrenheit. Humidity levels of approximately 60-70% during the vegetative phase, gradually decreasing to between 40-50% during the flowering stage, will ensure a healthy grow. Low-Stress Training (LST) is the best method used to train these plants. LST is less stressful on the plant and the grower. This technique will help light reach all levels of the plant evenly, creating a well-balanced grow with huge buds growing from top to bottom. This technique will ultimately increase your yields come harvest time. Banana Diesel plants require an 18-20 hour light cycle to get them started and to get them through the vegetative stage. To induce the flowering stage of growth, you will need to change the light cycle to a 12/12 cycle. You can maintain this light cycle through to your harvest.
Yields, Flowering Time, and Harvest
- Flowering Time: Growing indoors, you can expect the Banana Diesel strain to harvest after a short flowering period of 55-65 days.
- Yields: While Indoor yields are around 500 grams per square meter, outdoor grows typically produce up to 600 grams per plant. These yields are massive and come at the end of an easy grow and short flowering period. Virgin growers should be very happy with these yield numbers.
- Harvest: Outdoor grows should be ready to harvest around the beginning of October, depending on when you planted your seeds.
Banana Diesel: Sweet Diesel Flavor
The Banana Diesel terpene profile is directly responsible for how the plant smells and tastes, and the strong effects it has on its users. The most dominant terpene in this strain is caryophyllene, while myrcene and limonene are the secondary terpenes.
- Caryophyllene: Most Dominant – The “spicy and peppery” terpene. Found in cinnamon, cloves, black pepper, and cannabis.
- Myrcene: Secondary Terpene – Known in the cannabis world as the “Mother of all Terpenes”, myrcene gives marijuana its earthy flavor and aroma.
- Limonene: Citrus Fruits – Limonene can be found in abundance in the rinds of citrus fruits and in cannabis plants. This terpene helps decrease anxiety and improve lung function.

I was a bit nervous about trying feminized seeds, but I am so glad I did.

It was easy to buy something from this pharmacy. The seeds got to me quickly, and the THC amounts are exactly what was said they would be. Going to order again.

The quality is top-notch, and I could tell right away that they were fresh and ready to grow. I planted them and within a few weeks, I already started seeing some beautiful little sprouts.

The sweet and fruity delicious flavor makes this super appealing. Banana Diesel is tasty but potent and is full of THC and CBD, so you’re going to feel it as you experience energizing, uplifting, and creativity. This is a great motivator to keep you going, to help you get through the day.

Impressive THC to CBD ratio….gets me nice and pleasantly stoned while also soothing my aches and pains. Has a lovely fragrant banana smell….and generally keeps me in a good mood.
Not the hardest strain to grow, but some prior experience might be useful!

With its energizing effects and increased focus, Banana Diesel is the ideal choice for combating writer’s block or a slow start to the day. Plus, its sweet and gasoline-like aroma adds to the overall experience. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned grower, Banana Diesel is sure to impress.

This diesel weed has a sweet banana twist and usually makes me so stoned I can’t remember smoking it.
Now THAT is what I call a STONEY mj.

Motivation hits like lightning when you smoke Banana Diesel. Feels great to be so mentally stimulated by this strain. Gave little to no trouble when I was growing it and allowed for a good amount of weed to be taken from it.

Great choice for growers looking to produce an impressive yield with minimal effort. Did require quite a bit of direct sunlight. Took about 6.5 week s till i got to reap my rewards. As a new grower this has probably been my biggest yield so far, all the seeds germinated for the first time for me! Got these seeds very quickly in the mail too.

I have been growing some Banana Diesel seeds for a month now and these have grown amazingly. Got some very healthy plants and I was ecstatic about how well these germinated, happy I did not lose any seeds like I have with other seed services. So far top quality seeds from Pacific Seed Bank.

Makes sense why they call it Banana Diesel. Definitely smells strong and skunky like a diesel strain….but when you take a loooong exhale you can taste that banana. It’s hidden in there….but it slaps! Quality is off the charts, better than expected and even tastier than I’d hoped. I’ll most certainly be coming back….if not just for this same grow. It was perfect!

This weed is literally so relaxing…it helps me manage my stress and anxiety but yeah, I do get pretty stoned on it, so don’t expect any work to get done 🙂
Giuseppe Allison (verified owner) –
I loved the sweet and earthy taste of this strain, and it provided a focused and relaxed high that helped with my stress and anxiety. The customer service from Pacific was excellent and all of my seeds sprouted and germinated without any issues.

The smell of this weed is enough to drive me wild! I love buying my mj online, having it shipped to my location, and being able to grow right away. It takes away all the waiting around and seeking that used to be what growing weed was like! Nope, just a few clicks and your seeds will be shipping anywhere in the USA! Great vibes and a fresh harvest every time. Good flower is hard to find, but once you work with Pacific, you’ll never find better seeds at a lower price 🙂

Ha! I have many memories with this weed. It’s so delicious and intense! I bought 10 seeds online and they shipped right to my home. I am blessed to have such delicious and productive weed plants growing in my yard. I am SO happy it’s legal now, and I definitely appreciate the challenge of growing my own pot. Love the shipping rates, super fast and affordable and better than amazon lol. This indica weed is perfect before bed 🙂

The banana diesel is both fruity and skunky, just as you’d expect. Basically, you seed the weed and water it every day for 6 months. THEN you’re bound to make some FAT nugs and rip some narsty clouds that will terrify your mother and impress your friends.
Mariana Pruitt (verified owner) –
Mmm this weed is so SMELLY! I bought my 10 seeds online and they are looking just amazing so far!! I purchased my seeds online, had em soaking in the water like 24 hrs later. They popped like almost instantly!!! Awesome purchase and worth the energy guys. It’s so affordable.

Hard to find a strain that nicely balances both CBD and THC, but banana diesel is the best one I have found, especially on the internet. Broke my harvesting record with nearly 600 grams this past harvest. I like the smooth banana flavor and sour smell. It’s a great way to get high in the evening, though isn’t great for being productive lol.

At first this doesn’t sound like a winning combo, but once you try it out, you may never smoke another mj strain again! Pacific seeds are always high quality. Have been ordering from them for many years, and they always come through. I like their fast delivery and smooooth tasting flower. Has made being a weed grower much easier!
Nojus Mueller (verified owner) –
Two beautiful things come together to form the banana diesel strain. A marriage of opposites in terms of flavor leads to something strange and unique, and well worth the effort. Ordering online was nice and easy, the catalog is immense and customer service knew exactly what I wanted. Will grow more in the future, happy to be a part of the PSB family!!

Mellow and laid back as ever. Have been cultivating this strain for years. It’s going really well with these seeds though. I like the varying online opportunities available with Pacific, their deals are the best on the internet, and the seeds ship fast which is good for me cause I always like to have a steady supply in the works. Good for home growers and commercial alike!

Something about this strain is like marijuana magic!! I think it may be the THC and CBD levels—it is just perfect mj to give an energetic and inspriring high, but it also soothes any worries from my mind. I’ve never heard of anyone getting paranoia or an anxiety attack from banana diesel,which is saying something when the THC level is so high for this mj. Easy grow: pretty much put it in the soil, make sure it gets light, water it and fertilize it and let it grow! Easy enough to grow that if you can, try to grow it outside as opposed to indoor.

Fruit and Gasoline combo is so good, who would have thought? Big fan of the calming effects of high THC + CBD and the creativity that this strain brings on. Painless outdoor grow that brought me over SIX HUNDRED grams each plant which for the lack of effort to me is incredible. Easily one of my new favorite MJ strains!
Tate S. (verified owner) –
OH man I really love this weed! It’s super easy to grow and produces a ton of nug, even the plant itself looks amazing with its fuzzy bright green trichomes that smell like tropical fruits! I usually reserve smoking this for the evenings, it helps me relax and unwind, plus the CBD makes my aches and pains just melt away, it’s a great addition to my weed collection and I’ll definitely be back for more!

Nice eye-opener of a cannabis strain. So many things I love about this pot: the smell is tasty and delish, like banana bread and the diesel smell is not too strong. I especially love the effect of this mj: it gets the creative juices flowing in a big way. I’ve done some of my best writing work while tripping on banana D! My friend wants to buy some of this off me, but I might just keep this crop all to myself. ?
Erin D. (verified owner) –
This is some funky weed! I don’t know about you but I wake up at the crack of dawn 5 days a week and that can get really tough! I smoke this in the morning to give myself a nice boost that lasts me through the day. Has a unique taste, like banana bread with a sour aftertaste, I mean it’s pretty wild. The CBD properties really help with my aches and pains and put me in a great mindset to tackle the day. I feel like there’s nothing I can’t do when I’m on this weed. PSB has a great online selection and I will definitely buy from them again!!!

I have really bad anxiety — like really bad. I used to take xanax but I was getting addicted so I stopped. Needed something that wasn’t as habit forming. Banana Diesel has been my favorite so far for putting a stop to the hamster wheel going in my brain. I’m able to relax and not worry so much. This strain is a blessing! Best weed in Canada!
Zoe M. (verified owner) –
Really nice 50/50 hybrid with a little bit of CBD has made this one of the best strains in my catalog. I like this mj for all day use specifically because it’s so middle of the road it lends itself to any situation day or night. Smoking leaves me really happy and relaxed, and growing indoors was pretty simple. I’d definitely recommend this for anybody who is just getting into growing.

I generally lean toward the sativa side with my cannabis consumption. But I don’t do many Diesel-type strains (Sour Diesel, Bio Diesel etc.) because they’re too speedy for me. They make me scattered and start to get a little paranoid. My feelings about Banana Diesel are pretty positive. A nice, mostly-mental buzz, but I can feel the indica in there, chilling me out.
About the growing: Pretty easy, lotsa water, quick flowering. Will order again.
Maude C. (verified owner) –
I think this may be my favorite strain of weed in the whole USA. Happy I ordered through Pacific, and the seeds were shipped out super speedy and fast, like in no time at all, WOW! I really love the notes of banana that permeate my bedroom when I smoke a bowl before bedtime and it really just chills me out and helps me forget about my workday stresses, of which there are many. This weed also gives me like amazing dreams as well, and I couldn’t ask for a more satisfying strain!
Maxine C. (verified owner) –
OMG. So good! I really like the strains that help with anxiety and Banana Diesel for sure works! I wasn’t sure at first, so I chatted with Pacific’s reps online and they gave me the thumbs up for this strain and I’m SO GLAD I ordered it. Highly recommend!
Helen M. (verified owner) –
It’s important where to get your weed from and Pacific Seeds is a stand-up place. Order arrived before I knew it, delivery was speedy.
Banana Diesel is the perfect blend of THC and CBD. The THC will make your mind POP but the CBD will make you chill. It’s hard to explain the overall feeling … just good and focused and also HUNGRY! Keep bags of chips around when using this.
Allie K. (verified owner) –
So, I ordered this strain by mistake and didn’t realize until I got my seeds in the mail. (Very quickly shipped, if I might add). But I decided to go with it and grow em and this is really good weed, ya’ll. I haven’t tried the CBD strains so much but maybe now I will because I really liked the calming effect of this bud! Next time I’ll buy some of these seeds on purpose and grow this strain again. Awesome weed!
