Finished flowering in just under 9 weeks. The plants were sturdy and held up their own weight well. The yield potential is definitely there.

plants grew bushy and compact

great genetcis. all sprouted.

I run a sea of green and Forbidden Fruit is the most consistent SOG genetics I’ve found. Plant-to-plant uniformity within a pack is exceptional and the eight-week finish allows four complete SOG cycles annually from a dedicated production tent. Operationally excellent genetics.

plants stayed compact and bushy, easy to manage in limited space

I run a commercial operation and have trialled Forbidden Fruit from six different seed sources over three years looking for the most operationally reliable version. This source produces the most authentic genetic expression and the most consistent cross-batch performance. The search is over.

Forbidden Fruit. Planted. Grew. Harvested. Reordering now.

all seeds popped quickly

I contacted the seed bank to ask about training Forbidden Fruit specifically for maximum colour expression versus maximum yield. Got an honest response explaining the trade-offs and giving specific recommendations for both approaches based on the Cherry Pie and Tangie heritage. Informed and useful guidance.

I run a commercial micro-grow and Forbidden Fruit is the most operationally efficient indica-dominant genetics in my rotation. The consistent eight-week finish makes scheduling straightforward and the compact structure means I can run more plants per square metre than with less compact genetics.

I grow in a greenhouse and Forbidden Fruit outdoors in a greenhouse environment develops a colour expression that is more vivid than my indoor runs. The natural temperature variation that greenhouses allow seems to enhance the pigment development that makes this cross visually distinctive.

Compact. Dense. Purple. Outstanding every season. Every run.

I grow in a 5×5 tent under LED lighting and Forbidden Fruit produces the most compact and productive canopy I achieve from any indica genetics in this format. Eight plants in an eight-week cycle produces consistently impressive yield per square metre.

All 10 seeds germinated. Can’t complain about that!

all seeds sprouted fast

Cherry Pie heritage. Tangie vigour. Eight weeks. Perfect combination.

I run a coco grow and Forbidden Fruit in coco with precise nutrition management produces the heaviest yield I achieve from any indica-dominant genetics in this medium. The compact structure converts every available resource efficiently over the eight-week cycle.

Forbidden Fruit. Eight weeks. Vivid. Dense. Outstanding.

the colour development on forbidden fruit from week 6 onwards is genuinely something that changes the atmosphere of the grow room. the transition from green to purple-tinted to deeply coloured is dramatic enough that i find myself going into the tent more frequently just to look at the plants

the shipping was faster than the estimated delivery window. seeds arrived in five days from order, well packaged and in perfect condition. five for five on germination. clean straightforward experience from clicking order to having seedlings in the medium

I’ve grown this cross from four different sources over four years. This is the most authentic genetic expression I’ve found. The structural character matches the Cherry Pie parent influence and the vigour reflects the Tangie genetics in a way that lesser sources don’t achieve.

Seeds were healthy and viable.

five seeds five plants eight weeks extraordinary harvest. every run from this source has delivered the same result. thats genetic consistency you can build a growing programme around

I’ve grown indica genetics exclusively for fifteen years and Forbidden Fruit is the cross I keep returning to because no other genetics in my rotation produces the combination of visual drama and harvest quality that this Cherry Pie and Tangie cross consistently delivers. Quality seeds from a reliable source.

I’ve grown for twenty-five years and the quality of indica-dominant hybrid genetics available from serious seed banks today is genuinely the best I’ve experienced in that time. Forbidden Fruit from this source represents that high standard. Authentic Cherry Pie and Tangie genetics maintained properly.

The trichome coverage is wild. Even the fan leaves are getting frosty. This plant is a resin machine.

decent yield

minor variation but no problems

I’ve grown for thirteen years and the discovery that quality seed banks maintain authentic Cherry Pie and Tangie genetics in Forbidden Fruit properly was genuinely exciting. Two seasons from this source have confirmed the authenticity and consistency. The growing experience matches what the genetics should deliver.

Overall a reliable strain to grow.

I run a perpetual harvest and Forbidden Fruit fits my schedule perfectly because the eight-week finish is consistent enough to plan around with confidence. Three consecutive runs from this seed bank and the finish window has been identical every time.

I’ve grown for ten years and Forbidden Fruit from this source was a revelation after disappointing runs from two other seed banks. The authentic Cherry Pie and Tangie expression that this source provides makes the entire growing experience different from what the name-only versions of this cross deliver.

my second run of forbidden fruit from this source and the consistency between runs is remarkable. same structure, same colour development timeline, same finish date, same yield. if you want to understand what genetic consistency looks like run this strain twice from the same bank

I’ve grown for seven years and Forbidden Fruit was recommended to me by two experienced growers who independently cited it as the best indica-dominant hybrid they’d grown. After my first run from this source I understand completely why two growers with different styles and setups reached the same conclusion.

The after-sales support is top-notch. They really stand by their product.

I’ve grown for twenty years and indica-dominant genetics have been the foundation of my growing practice throughout. Forbidden Fruit from properly maintained Cherry Pie and Tangie genetics is the most complete expression of what this genetics category can achieve. Structural efficiency and harvest quality in one compact package.

good grow

Fast shipping. Quality seeds. Simple.

I’ve grown every major Cherry Pie cross and Tangie cross available over the years and Forbidden Fruit combines the best traits of both parent lineages more effectively than either parent’s other notable crosses. The structural efficiency and colour expression are both present and both expressing fully.

Extremely reliable seeds. Every pack I’ve bought has had a near-perfect germination rate.

my grow has been straightforward from start to current week 6 of flower. no issues, no surprises, just compact vigorous indica development that is currently beginning to show the first hints of colour change. four seasons of growing cherry pie tangie genetics and the consistency never disappoints

packaging was proper. individual seed protection, well sealed outer envelope, nothing damaged in transit. seeds looked premium when i opened them. dark, plump, shell integrity exactly right. all five germinated within 40 hours. good seeds are obvious before they even sprout

good indoor results

overall satisfied with results

I run a bioponic system and Forbidden Fruit in a low-input biological growing environment produces the most vivid colour development I achieve from any indica genetics. Something about the interaction between this cross and organic growing methods amplifies the pigment expression in late flower.

I grow in a cold climate and run my grow room with lower ambient temperatures in the final three weeks of flower to encourage colour expression in Forbidden Fruit. The genetics respond to the temperature differential dramatically and the colour development that results is worth the environmental management effort.

The stalks on these plants are thick and sturdy. No need for extra support, even with the heavy colas developing in late flower.

the visual quality of forbidden fruit in late flower is the thing that keeps me coming back to this genetics. week 7 and the canopy is this extraordinary combination of deep purple, rich green, and white trichome coverage that makes the grow room look genuinely spectacular. harvest cant come fast enough

I’ve been growing for years and these held up well. Consistent germination and stable growth throughout.

The paper towel method worked flawlessly. Had 10/10 pop with long taproots in 48 hours. Couldn’t be happier with the start.

would buy again

currently week 4 of veg and already planning training for the coming flip. forbidden fruit doesnt need much intervention compared to sativa genetics but a bit of early lst makes the canopy development more efficient. compact indica genetics that reward gentle management

five seeds all popped within two days. i use the glass of water pre-soak method then transfer to paper towel and every seed that went through this process with the forbidden fruit pack performed perfectly. vigorous start that predicted an excellent cycle

I’ve grown over twenty-five different indica-dominant crosses and Forbidden Fruit sits at the top for colour expression and near the top for harvest quality. No other indica genetics I’ve grown develops the combination of vivid colour and dense trichome coverage that this Cherry Pie and Tangie cross achieves.

good buy overall

the compact indica structure on these plants makes them perfect for my tent setup. not too tall, fills the horizontal space naturally, and by week 6 of flower the bud development is already telling you the harvest is going to be exceptional. these are well-bred genetics

I grow Forbidden Fruit as a dedicated annual project and the harvest photographs have become the most shared images in my growing documentation across three seasons. Quality genetics produce quality results that are worth documenting and worth sharing.

all seeds were viable and strong.

Dense buds. Purple hues. Eight weeks. Perfect.

Purple. Dense. Compact. Eight weeks. Exceptional indica.

I grow Forbidden Fruit as an annual showcase project and the harvest photographs from the late-flower colour development have become the most shared images in my growing documentation. Quality genetics produce quality results that are worth sharing.

I’ve grown indica-dominant genetics for nine years and Forbidden Fruit from quality genetics is the most complete indica-dominant growing experience I’ve had. The structural efficiency, the colour development, the eight-week finish, the harvest quality. Every dimension of the growing experience is exceptional.

I am a new grower and found this strain to be very manageable. It wasn’t too demanding with nutrients and was easy to read.

Seeds arrived and look top quality.

I contacted support before ordering to ask about managing Forbidden Fruit in a limited height space. Got a detailed response covering the expected height, stretch behaviour, and training approach recommendations specific to this cross. Genuinely useful pre-sale guidance.

The shipping was discreet and arrived ahead of schedule. The seeds look plump and healthy. Can’t wait to see what these genetics can do.

good germ rate

Compact. Vigorous. Eight weeks. Perfect indica hybrid.

The internodal spacing is perfect. Not too stretchy, not too squat. Makes for easy canopy management and good light penetration to the lower sites.

Flowering took about 9 weeks for me.

two packs purchased two seasons apart from the same source. both packs performing identically from germination through harvest. whatever quality control process this seed bank runs for forbidden fruit genetics is working consistently and producing identical results across production batches

I run a greenhouse and Forbidden Fruit outdoors in a greenhouse with controlled nutrition produces a version of this cross that is meaningfully better than my indoor tent results. The temperature variation and natural light spectrum appear to amplify both the yield and the colour development. Greenhouse Forbidden Fruit is something special.

These seeds produce very uniform plants. Great for a Sea of Green setup. Every plant is growing at the same rate with a similar structure.

The plant’s structure is ideal for a small tent. It doesn’t get too tall or unruly. Very easy to manage in a confined space.

Seeds germinated quickly.

I like to top my plants, and this one handled it perfectly. It barely slowed down and produced two massive main colas. A very resilient and productive plant.

pretty easy grow

I run a DWC system and Forbidden Fruit’s root development in the reservoir by week two of veg is excellent. The compact indica plant form means the root-to-canopy relationship is efficient and the eight-week cycle gives the plant enough time to express the full genetic potential from those roots.

fast delivery

I’ve tried three other sources for this strain and none of them produced the authentic Cherry Pie and Tangie genetic character that this source delivers. The structural development is more compact, the colour expression is more vivid, and the harvest is heavier. Better genetics make a visible and measurable difference.

I run a sea of green and Forbidden Fruit is my most productive SOG genetics. The compact single-dominant-cola structure under short veg produces consistent yields per plant and the eight-week finish allows four complete cycles annually from a single dedicated 3×3 tent.

I grow for the visual reward of the late-flower colour development as much as for the harvest weight. Forbidden Fruit delivers both. The purple and deep green colour expression through weeks six to eight combined with the dense trichome coverage produces something genuinely beautiful. Worth growing for the aesthetics alone.

For a first-time grower, this was a breeze. Followed the instructions on the site and had 100% success. Plants are now in veg and look fantastic.

the colour development progression on forbidden fruit from week 5 through week 8 is one of the most compelling visual sequences in growing. early hints of colour at week 5. visible colour building at week 6. substantial colour at week 7. extraordinary colour at week 8 harvest. watching that progression is why i grow this strain every season

happy with purchase

I’ve been growing for three years and Forbidden Fruit from this source was my most rewarding harvest to date. The visual quality of the coloured buds at week eight exceeded everything I’d grown previously and the germination reliability made the whole cycle stress-free from the first day.

I run Forbidden Fruit in three different growing environments across three tents and the genetic expression is consistent across all three despite different mediums and different lighting setups. The genetics drive the performance rather than the growing environment, which confirms the breeding quality.

Excellent seed stock. Pure quality.

week 6 and the colour is absolutely beautiful. the whole canopy has shifted from green to a deep green purple mix that genuinely makes the grow room look spectacular. still two weeks to go and the bud density is already well above average

Every seed in the pack was viable. Very high-quality genetics from a reliable source.

got these seeds on recommendation from someone whose growing i respect. they said it was the best indica cross they had run in ten years. after completing my first run i can confirm they were not exaggerating. the quality at harvest from authentic genetics is exactly what the recommendation promised

fine results

not bad but one slow starter

I’ve been growing for four years and Forbidden Fruit was my introduction to colour genetics. The late-flower purple development changed how I think about the visual dimension of growing. These seeds give you the genetics to make that colour development genuinely impressive rather than just marginal.

I grow Forbidden Fruit as my primary indica-dominant genetics and have done for three seasons from this source. The consistency of the genetic expression and the cross-pack reliability means I can plan production cycles with genuine confidence. That planning certainty is operationally valuable.

Seeds looked mature and all cracked fast. Plants responded well to topping.

I run Forbidden Fruit in multiple formats across two seasons and the genetic expression has been consistent across every format I’ve tried. Soil, coco, DWC, and living soil. The compact Cherry Pie structure and the eight-week finish translate reliably regardless of the growing medium.

I grow Forbidden Fruit as a dedicated project each season because the colour development in late flower is something I photograph extensively for documentation. These genetics produce something genuinely beautiful in the final two weeks and quality seeds from this source make that beauty consistently achievable.

Good experience overall with ordering and growing.

Great germination rates, 10 for 10.

I grow Forbidden Fruit for the late-flower colour development as much as for the yield. When the purple tones start emerging through weeks six and seven the whole grow room looks different. These are genetics that make growing aesthetically rewarding as well as productively rewarding.

I run Forbidden Fruit in a 4×4 ScrOG and the compact indica branching fills the net cleanly within the first ten days of flower. The eight-week finish means the screen is productive for a longer proportion of the total cycle than with longer-finishing genetics. Efficient ScrOG genetics.

This Forbidden Fruit shows its Tangie lineage in the structure. A bit of a stretch in early flower but filled out nicely. The resin production is already looking impressive at week 5.

I grow for extraction and Forbidden Fruit produces excellent hash yields per gram of starting material. The trichome architecture that develops through the eight-week cycle is well-suited to ice water extraction and the yields consistently meet my extraction targets per run.

Great for beginners, very forgiving plant.

4/5 germination, pretty happy overall. Plants stayed compact and easy to manage in my small tent.

I grow for the craft and Forbidden Fruit is the genetics that rewards craft-level attention to detail. The colour development responds to careful environmental management in the final weeks. The bud density responds to precise nutrition timing through flower. Quality genetics that reward quality growing.

I grow Forbidden Fruit because it’s the cross that best satisfies both the production requirements and the aesthetic requirements of my growing practice. When a strain is both highly productive and genuinely beautiful it justifies permanent rotation status. These seeds deliver both qualities every cycle.

ordered three packs. ran them across three consecutive seasons. every pack identical performance from germination rate through finish window through harvest weight range. three seasons of documented consistent quality from a single source for a single genetics. that evidence speaks clearly

I’d recommend these for beginners honestly.

I grow in a converted wardrobe with very limited height and Forbidden Fruit is the most productive genetics I’ve found for this constrained format. The compact indica structure stays within my ceiling constraints naturally and the bud development through an eight-week flower cycle is extraordinary for the available space.

Good resilience under stress.

every one of em germinated. good seeds.

I grow for a small collective and Forbidden Fruit is our most consistently requested genetics each season. The combination of compact manageable structure, eight-week finish, and extraordinary colour development at harvest makes it the obvious choice for growers who want something both rewarding and beautiful.

one dud but rest excellent

The final buds are dense and completely coated in trichomes. The bag appeal is a 10/10. An absolute stunner of a plant.

Compact structure. Dense yield. Eight weeks. Outstanding.

fast shipping good seeds

germination 100 percent

Took a little longer to germinate but once they did, growth was steady and predictable through veg.

worked fine

first time growing forbidden fruit and i wasnt sure what to expect from a cherry pie tangie cross. what i found was a compact vigorous plant that developed exactly as the genetics suggest it should. by week 6 of flower i was already confident the harvest was going to be exceptional

Forbidden Fruit. Compact structure. Dense harvest. Outstanding.

I’ve grown for nine years and Forbidden Fruit from this source was a revelation after two disappointing runs from other seed banks. The authentic Cherry Pie and Tangie character is immediately visible and the entire grow from germination to harvest confirms you’re running genuine genetics rather than a name on a packet.

Forbidden Fruit seeds. Outstanding. No hesitation ordering again.

very easy to grow strain

Forbidden Fruit. Cherry Pie. Tangie. Eight weeks. Perfect.

everything popped, no complaints

I’ve grown probably twenty different indica-dominant hybrids over seven years and Forbidden Fruit sits in the top three for overall grow experience. The combination of Cherry Pie structure and Tangie vigour produces something with a character that’s immediately distinctive from generic indica crosses.

I’ve grown every major Cherry Pie cross available over eight years and Forbidden Fruit is the cross that most successfully combines the structural efficiency of Cherry Pie with the metabolic vigour contributed by the Tangie genetics. The result is a plant that develops impressively and finishes densely.

This is a very low-odor strain during the vegetative phase, which is a big plus for my small apartment grow.

week 6 of flower and the first purple is emerging on the upper fan leaves. by week 7 the colour will be building across the whole canopy. by week 8 harvest this grow room is going to look spectacular. this is why i grow forbidden fruit every season

decent seeds

The stability of this line is noteworthy. We ran a pack of 10 and found very little variation between phenotypes. All plants exhibited the desired tight internodal spacing and robust branching. They handled a heavy feeding schedule without issue. On track to finish in under 65 days. Excellent breeding work.

all popped nice

I had a couple of seeds that were slow to start, but they caught up with the others by the second week of veg. Patience paid off.

no deficiencies observed

First time growing this strain after multiple recommendations from growers in my community. The germination was flawless, all five seeds cracked within 44 hours, and the compact vigorous structure that developed through veg was exactly what the Cherry Pie and Tangie cross promises. Genuinely impressive genetics.

I grow Forbidden Fruit because the combination of compact structure, colour development, and harvest quality delivers on every dimension of what I want from an indica-dominant grow. When a strain satisfies every requirement it earns permanent rotation status and these seeds maintain that standard.

Compact. Efficient. Colourful. Dense. Eight weeks. Outstanding.

two packs ordered over the same growing season. both packs performing identically from germination through to week five of flower where i currently am. the genetic consistency between packs from this source is something i rely on for production planning and it consistently delivers

decent results happy

I grow Forbidden Fruit for the combination of manageability and quality. Not the most challenging strain to grow but the results are among the most impressive I produce. When quality genetics are also manageable genetics they earn a permanent rotation position.

I’ve grown for twenty-four years and Cherry Pie genetics in hybrid form have been part of my growing programme for most of that time. Forbidden Fruit is the best Cherry Pie cross I currently grow. The Tangie vigour inheritance adds dimensions to the growth character and the harvest quality that pure Cherry Pie genetics lack.

I run a commercial micro-grow and the operational efficiency of Forbidden Fruit is the primary reason it occupies a permanent position in the operation. Compact structure, eight-week finish, consistent yield, exceptional visual quality. Every metric that matters in commercial growing satisfied by one genetics package.

Easy grow for intermediate level.

I grow Forbidden Fruit because nothing else in my rotation produces the combination of visual drama in late flower and harvest quality that this Cherry Pie and Tangie cross delivers. When a strain is both productive and beautiful it becomes the strain everything else is compared against.

seeds did their job

Honestly really impressed. Every seed cracked within two days and the seedlings came up thick and healthy.

I liked how uniform the plants were. Easy canopy management.

good results in soil

I run a grow specifically for extraction work and Forbidden Fruit produces excellent resin yield per gram of starting material. The trichome development through weeks five to eight builds consistently on these genetics and the extraction efficiency from each harvest consistently meets my production targets.

I grow Forbidden Fruit as my primary production genetics because the combination of compact structure, consistent eight-week finish, and reliable yield makes it the most operationally efficient strain in my rotation. When you find genetics this predictable and this productive you build around them.
