sourbananasherbert! That looks very nice man! I think I might go with a pack DoubleTangieBanana! That Banana used in the HoneyBananas was very interesting, I think the hermie trait was from the BooBoo in it? Go figure!? The strawberryBanana is probably my favorite strain I ever grown! Those beans cost a lot$,but well worthit!
Here's a pic of that Double Tangie Banana

Nice find on the pics @akhiymjames
Thanks for sharing! My order will be in my hands early this week! Glad i made the choices I did..they look fire..if you pop the Sour Sunset I would love to see pictures from time to time !

I also got a pack of Lemon Walker & Lemon Skunk a few orders ago @JimmyIndica . They are on the to do list
When I pop those Sour Sunsets I will def post pics of them in this thread. They will also be in my thread in my signature. Everything I grow is shown in that thread so you can check it there too

there is lots of banana in that one! I can I most bet it mellows that citrus from the tangie! Maybe!? My flower room smells like straight floor cleaner from the tangie! Anyone know where to get the Banana used in all these ?

I don't think you can get the Banana Kush that's used in these crosses expect as a clone. Here's the story on the Banana Kush that Crockett is using

Breeder: Crockett
Hybrid: OG Kush x Skunk Haze

Info: This is a variety that we created about 10 years ago that i began to call "Banana" because it has a faint banana smell, but because i had mistakenly taken a name that had already been used, we renamed it "Private Reserve". But locally we still call it Banana. [...] I'd been searching for a long time for a particular OG Kush cut, and when I found it, I grew it for a while. It's called the Ghost OG. [...] I like the Ghost cut because of the Nug size and the yield. It's not a huge yield, but for an OG it's good. I mixed it with a local Skunk variety we've been growing around here for years, which is actually an ancestor of the Haze that everybody in Amsterdam is crazy over. It's a mix between those two, and the genetics that came of it were just incredible. It's just a freak of nature. [...] I thought they would cross well because they are just such different spectrums. The OG is so indica and the Skunk Haze is so sativa. The Kush cut was probably 8 or 9 years old when i got it and the seeds from the Skunk Haze are back from the early seventies. I wanted to mix that Skunk Haze with something because I knew it was something that no one else had. It's really unique. And now i have something noone else has ;-)

It's been used in several crosses by numerous breeders but I'm sure it's not worth it to BX it as you have to have a male that would truly let the mom shine through. Since it's already a polyhybrid the phenos will be all over the place once you hit it with a male so it would just take too much work to get anything close to the mother unless you was BX'ing it with the original dad and then it's not a BX of the cut its a BX of the dad.

Well sucks to hear your getting herm phenos from the Honey Bananas but at least you have some stable phenos. I would work with those. Never had anything banana and had been waiting to grab something banana from Crockett but went with the Sunset Sherbet cross instead.

what your opinion using fems for propagation purposes?

I have nothing against fem seeds as some really good strains have come from fem seeds. Only thing I don't like with fems is a lot of great crosses don't come in fem seeds so you miss out on those that don't but beside that only thing I can think of is them herming out. Regs or fems herm so it's no exception but I just prefer regs but fems come in handy for lots of growers with small space and no place for moms. Just make sure your able to watch them when they go in flower so you don't end up with a seeded crop.
