These figures are ranges, not promises. Flowering time, harvest date and yield vary depending on growing conditions: the grower, the method and the season's weather. "Mold resistant" means mold tolerant: less prone to mold and slower to be affected. No strain is 100% mold resistant. How we set these numbers →

About Forbidden Fruit
Genetics & strain profile
Forbidden Fruit is a cross of Cherry Pie and Tangie — a dessert indica and a tangerine-scented sativa — and the result is an indica-dominant hybrid with 24% THC that tastes of both parents at once. It is rated for intermediate growers: not a hard plant, but one that rewards a grower who already knows how to manage humidity in a dense canopy and read a plant’s feeding. It is a newer addition to the catalogue and does not yet have customer reviews, so the figures below come from our own grows rather than from reviewers; its Cherry Pie parent, which has nine reviews, gives a good idea of the plant’s shape and vigour. If you grow it, a review helps the next person. Our seeds are guaranteed.
How Forbidden Fruit grows
The plants grow to a medium height with strong lateral branching from the Cherry Pie side, which suits a tent and takes well to topping and a net. Flowering takes 60 to 70 days with up to 450 g/m² indoors; the buds are dense and purple-tinged in a cool finish, so keep humidity under 50% in the last three weeks and give the canopy air. Outdoors it is typically ready in mid-October with up to 500 g per plant, depending on growing conditions — which in most of Canada means a sunny, sheltered spot and a plan for an early frost, since mid-October is at the edge of the season north of Montreal. Feed moderately through flower; the Tangie side likes a steady supply but burns if you push it. Soak seeds 12 to 24 hours and plant directly in warm, barely damp soil.
Taste, aroma and effect
Citrus first — the Tangie tangerine — balanced by sweet cherry and earthy pine from Cherry Pie, with a tropical, passion-fruit sweetness that gave the strain its name. The effect has two stages: Tangie brings the euphoric, uplifting opening, then Cherry Pie’s indica side settles it into a deep relaxation — an end-of-day strain, and at 24% THC a strong one, so start small. For the parents, see Cherry Pie and, for a tangerine autoflower, Tangerine Dream Autoflower; for other fruit-dessert indicas, Zkittlez and Granddaddy Purple.
