Description
Grand Daddy Purple crossed with Banana Hammock R1 is the kind of pairing that speaks for itself. Ethos Genetics built Banana Daddy R1 around a rich terpene profile that layers ripe fruit and skunk with a slow-building spice, all backed by very high THC content pushing 25% and above. The effects sit firmly in indica territory: heavy, settled, and enveloping without being disorienting, the sort of experience that earns a permanent spot in a personal rotation.
As a feminised photoperiod plant, Banana Daddy R1 gives growers clean control over the vegetative phase before flipping to flower. Indoors, expect 350 to 450 grams per square meter across a 7 to 9 week flowering window, a timeline short enough to fit comfortably into tight annual schedules or back-to-back tent cycles. Medium plant height makes canopy management straightforward, and the indica structure tends toward dense, resinous branching that rewards basic training. Outdoor plants are capable of 200 to 450 grams per plant given a warm, generous season. For growers chasing a classic indica experience with modern genetics behind it, this one is worth the space.

about this product
Banana Daddy R1 brings Grand Daddy Purple's legendary depth together with Banana Hammock's fruity punch, ready for growers who want serious potency without serious hassle.
Ethos Genetics has rated this one as easy to moderate, making it a solid pick for beginners who are ready to step up to a high-performing photoperiod strain. You get the control of a feminised seed with a forgiving growth pattern and medium height that suits most tent setups. As long as you're comfortable managing a light schedule to trigger flowering, you'll be in good shape.
Banana Daddy R1 produces a terpene profile that layers ripe, tropical fruit over a skunky base with a slow-creeping spice that builds as buds mature. Indoors you'll want good ventilation and carbon filtration during late flower, as the skunk notes can get assertive. The finished product carries all three elements — fruity, skunky, and spicy — in a way that feels cohesive rather than competing.
Flowering runs between 7 and 9 weeks, which sits on the quicker end for an indica-dominant photoperiod variety. Indoor growers can expect around 350–450 grams per square metre under dialled-in conditions, while individual plants typically produce 200–450 grams depending on how much veg time you allow. It's an average yield category, but the quality-to-effort ratio is where this strain earns its place.
The effects are firmly indica in character — heavy, body-focused, and settling rather than stimulating. At this THC level, expect a slow-building wave that moves from relaxed to genuinely sleepy, making it best suited for evening use. It's the kind of experience that rewards those who appreciate depth over intensity for its own sake.
