ICE CREAM BANANAZ #46
ICE CREAM NANA x STRAWBERRY RUNTZ

Ice Cream Bananaz, the focus of our 2024 Pheno Hunt, shares its roots with Strawberry Cherry Pie and Sugarloaf Pineapple, as all three strains originate from 808 Genetics’ 2021 Strawberry Runtz menu. Despite having a parent in common, Sugarloaf Pineapple, Strawberry Cherry Pie, and Ice Cream Bananaz all yield wildly different results through the diversity of their maternal genetics. In the case of Ice Cream Bananaz, the mother strain, Ice Cream Nana, was introduced to enhance and amplify the foundation of Strawberry Runtz. It’s well worth getting to know all of the phenos in our hunt, as each is a unique expression of this cross.

Phenotype #46 of Ice Cream Bananaz is closely aligned to the paternal lineage of the cross and, more specifically, to its grandfather, Runtz. Commonly known in cannabis forums as the improved Gelato, Runtz is beloved for its sweet, juicy aromas and nostalgic fruit candy flavors. Looking and tasting like sugar-frosted candy, #46’s buds check all the right Runtz boxes and may provide an uplifting and euphoric experience to match.
