Forbidden Fruit x Wedding Cake puts Forbidden Fruit over Wedding Cake. One is Cherry Pie crossed to Tangie - dark cherry against bright citrus; the other is Triangle Kush over Animal Mints, with real Florida OG stock hiding under the frosting. Two very different plants, and the point of the cross is what sits between them. What CSI sell is access to their clone collection in seed form. The parents are the cuts themselves, not a line bred to resemble them.

Order matters in a cross name. In Forbidden Fruit x Wedding Cake the Forbidden Fruit side supplied the seed and Wedding Cake the pollen, and the reciprocal - the same two plants the other way round - is a separate breeding decision with its own results.

Genetic Lineage

• Mother: Forbidden Fruit. Cherry Pie crossed to Tangie - dark cherry against bright citrus. Given as Cherry Pie x Tangie. Rated an easy grow that does not need constant attention.
• Father: Wedding Cake. An Animal Mints cross onto Triangle Kush, which is why it has backbone as well as sweetness. Parentage: Triangle Kush x Animal Mints. Rated an easy plant for beginners and experienced growers alike.
• What the cross is reaching for. One side brings the structure and the other brings the nose. The plants worth keeping out of a pack are the ones that hold both rather than picking a side.

Flavor and Aroma Profile

Two profiles that stay distinguishable rather than collapsing into one.

• The Aroma. Tropical citrus over dark cherry from the Forbidden Fruit side, against vanilla cake over creamy earth with pepper and spice cutting through from the Wedding Cake side.
• The Taste. Passionfruit and cherry with a citrus lift up front, turning to vanilla and cream turning distinctly tangier on the exhale through the exhale.

How the two sides differ

• Timing splits the pack. One parent wants nine to ten weeks indoors, the other seven to nine weeks indoors. Expect the fast plants down well before the slow ones are ready.
• Two noses, one pack. Forbidden Fruit contributes dark cherry and bright orange citrus. Wedding Cake contributes sweet vanilla cake over creamy earth with pepper and spice. Which dominates is the main thing that varies.
• Structure varies hard here. Compact at eighty to a hundred and twenty centimetres indoors from one parent; short and bushy with minimal stretch and heavy lateral branching that needs support once flowers fill; dense chunky buds, dark to light green with occasional purple from the other. Plan the canopy for the taller outcome.
• They pull differently. Growers put Forbidden Fruit at indica-leaning and settling and Wedding Cake at indica-leaning and even; relaxed. Which end a plant lands on is the main variable.

Cultivation and Growth Traits

• Plant Structure. The two parents disagree here, so plan for range. Forbidden Fruit is compact and dense, colouring the way its Cherry Pie side does. Wedding Cake is short and bushy with minimal stretch and heavy lateral branching that needs support once flowers fill; dense chunky buds, dark to light green with occasional purple.
• Veg and stretch. Set the frame while it is cheap to do. Anything you fix after the flip costs you flower sites.
• Flowering Time. The parents are not on the same clock. Forbidden Fruit runs nine to ten weeks indoors, Wedding Cake seven to nine weeks indoors. Judge each plant on trichomes rather than pulling the room together.

Effects and Experience

• The Mind. Growers describe Forbidden Fruit as indica-leaning and settling.
• The Body. Wedding Cake is reported as indica-leaning and even; relaxed, and that is the side supplying the weight here.

In the pack

Feminized seeds from Humboldt CSI. Humboldt CSI are preservationists before they are breeders - most of what they release is a clone somebody has kept alive by hand for years, put into seed so it stops depending on one grower staying in the game. That is what you are buying into here. Sold as authentic Humboldt CSI.
