RS11 x Banana OG by Barney's Farm

RS11 x Banana OG is an indica-dominant hybrid from a collaboration between Barney’s Farm and the California cultivators at Doja Exclusive. With 70% Indica and 30% Sativa genetics and THC listed at up to 32%, it ranks among the strongest entries in the Barney’s Farm lineup.

The plant turns out compact, high-mass buds in lime and emerald tones, buried under a thick layer of trichomes. Behind that frost sits a fruit-forward profile: grapefruit and citrus on the palate, melon and banana underneath, and a lemon, spice and cherry nose.

Indoors, plants reach 120–150 cm (47–59 in) and yield up to 600 g/m² (1.97 oz/ft²) after 65–70 days of flowering. Outdoors they grow to 150–180 cm (59–71 in) and can deliver up to 1,500 g (52.9 oz) per plant, with harvest in the third or fourth week of October.

These are feminized photoperiod seeds, so every plant is expected to flower female and the grower decides when bloom begins by switching the lights to 12/12.

RS11 x Banana OG Lineage and Genetics

RS11 is one of the most talked-about West Coast cuts of recent years, and Banana OG brings classic OG Kush structure with a sweet banana twist. Barney’s Farm worked with Doja Exclusive on systematic phenotype selection to keep the potency and resin of both sides while producing a stable, predictable seed line.

The indica side dominates the bud: tight, heavy and dense. The sativa share shows up in the internodal spacing, which is wider than most indica-leaning plants and leaves room for light and air to reach the lower sites.

RS11 x Banana OG Aroma, Flavor and Effect

Lemon opens the aroma, sharp and clean, before a spicy layer and a sweet, cherry-like undertone come through. The scent builds steadily through flowering and holds its complexity after drying.

On the palate, grapefruit takes the lead. Bright citrus follows, then melon and a smooth banana note that clearly comes from the Banana OG parent. It tastes like a citrus fruit salad with sliced banana folded in: tart up front, round and sweet at the end.

The effect starts with physical relaxation that does not tip into sedation, and mental clarity rises at the same time. The result is a calm, focused state with a strong body feel, versatile enough for an afternoon of music or a slow evening.

With THC listed at up to 32%, dosing matters. Experienced consumers will appreciate the depth; newcomers should start small.

Growing RS11 x Banana OG Indoors and Outdoors

Strong branches and vigorous growth make RS11 x Banana OG a good fit for training. Topping early, followed by LST or a SCROG net, turns the open internodes into an even canopy of tops. Indoor plants finish at 120–150 cm (47–59 in), so plan headroom for the stretch in the first two weeks of 12/12.

Indoor flowering runs 65–70 days, with yields up to 600 g/m² (1.97 oz/ft²) under strong light. The dense buds hold moisture, so keep relative humidity lower in the final weeks and maintain steady airflow through the canopy.

Outdoors, plants reach 150–180 cm (59–71 in) and can produce up to 1,500 g (52.9 oz) each when properly fed and given full sun. Harvest falls in the third to fourth week of October in the Northern Hemisphere, so a warm, dry autumn gives the colas time to finish.

Trichome coverage is heavy across buds and sugar leaves, which makes the trim a solid choice for hash or rosin.
