Forbidden Fruit Auto

Growing Tips for Forbidden Fruit Auto

Forbidden Fruit Auto is best-suited for intermediate-level growers with prior cannabis cultivation experience. Forbidden Fruit Auto marijuana plants will thrive indoors and outdoors, but have an easier time growing indoors because of the ability to completely control the climate. If you choose to grow indoors, you will have to replicate a steady environment similar to a warm Mediterranean climate. Forbidden Fruit Auto cannabis seeds produce bright green and orange plants that are covered in pistils and crystal resin trichomes.

If you choose to grow outdoors, you will need consistent temperature and humidity to grow these plants to completion. Doing so will ensure that you grow healthy buds from the top of the plants to the buds closest to the soil. Having access to a greenhouse is the best way to give these plants the ideal outdoor climate without having to contend with unexpected outdoor variables — particularly useful across Canada's varied growing regions. These plants grow to a short height and can reach around 90–135 centimetres tall. Because the plants reach a maximum indoor and outdoor height of approximately 135 centimetres, they will fit in smaller grow areas like closets, gardens, and balconies. You can also grow multiple plants in a smaller area to drastically improve your overall yields come harvest time.

The ideal temperature for these plants is around 21–27 degrees Celsius and slightly cooler at night. Humidity levels should be kept around 40–60% during the vegetative growth stage and the flowering stage, but lowering the humidity incrementally each week will help this plant thrive. Growing indoors will ensure that moderate humidity levels and moderate temperatures are consistent and maintained every day that the plants are in the growing stages.

Topping, Screen of Green (ScrOG), and Low-stress training (LST) methods are the best training techniques for this particular strain of cannabis. If performed correctly and at the right time, these techniques will promote bud production and increase final yields. Topping will help to trim the topmost buds so more light and air reach the lowest buds on the plant. LST manipulates the plants by tying down the branches to increase the size and density of the buds while allowing them to grow almost naturally. ScrOG is used to reinforce the heavier bud sites so they don't bend or break the branches. The Forbidden Fruit Auto strain requires an 18-hour light cycle to reach the vegetative growth stage. As an autoflowering strain, it does not need a change in the light cycle to induce the flowering stage of growth.

Yields, Flowering Time, and Harvest

• Flowering Time: Growing indoors, you can expect the Forbidden Fruit Auto strain to harvest after a flowering period of 60–70 days.
• Yields: Indoor yields are around 450 grams per square metre, while outdoor grows typically produce up to 500 grams per plant. Growing multiple plants in a smaller area will increase these yields exponentially.
• Harvest: Outdoor growers across Canada can plan on harvesting their yields around the end of October, depending on when the seeds were planted.

Forbidden Fruit Auto: Piney, Fruity Citrus

The Forbidden Fruit Auto cannabis strain terpene profile is directly responsible for how the plant smells and tastes, and the strong effects it has on its users. The most dominant terpene in this strain is caryophyllene, while limonene and myrcene are the secondary terpenes.

• Caryophyllene: Most Dominant - Spicy and peppery, caryophyllene is mostly found in cloves, black pepper, and cannabis plants.
• Limonene: Secondary Terpene - Limonene is found mostly in the rinds of citrus fruits such as lemons and oranges.
• Myrcene: Mother of All Terpenes - Myrcene is responsible for some cannabis strains' earthy and woody flavour and aroma.
