Chunky Monkey is a name shared by two distinct, unrelated hybrid cultivars, each offering unique genetic lineages and terpene profiles.

About Chunky Monkey

The name Chunky Monkey refers to two separate and genetically distinct cannabis cultivars. The first, created by Riot Seeds and also known as Platinum Banana Chunk, is a cross between Tom Hill’s Deep Chunk and a Platinum Banana OG Kush backcross. This version is characterized by aromas of banana and earth, with a flavor profile often described as herbal and tropical. The second version, created by an unknown breeder, is a cross between Fatso and Grease Monkey. This iteration is noted for a more savory and pungent profile, featuring aromas of coffee and skunk, with tastes reminiscent of nuts, cocoa, and earth. Users of both varieties report an initial onset of euphoria that transitions into a state of relaxed contentment.

Plant characteristics

The Riot Seeds version of Chunky Monkey produces medium-sized plants that exhibit extensive resin production and develop violet-black coloration. It reaches maturity in 56 to 63 days when grown indoors, or by early October when cultivated outdoors.
