Seb's take

Seb Silverback

Bred from Forbidden Fruit and the reclusive, uncirculated Geist OG — itself a private cross of four OG lines, which is rather a lot of pedigree to keep quiet about. Forbidden Dream inherits the fruity flavour and the balanced, cerebral-and-physical high, and remains just as discreet about the rest.

Where it comes from

Forbidden Fruit crossed with Geist OG, Humboldt Seeds pairing a fruited, well-known parent with one of their most private. Geist OG is uncirculated stock, itself a cross of four separate OG lines, which is rather a lot of pedigree to keep behind closed doors. Forbidden Fruit lends the fruity flavour and the balanced, cerebral-and-physical character; Geist OG lends the rare, reclusive backbone. A cross with more heritage than it lets on, and just as discreet about the rest.

Nose & flavour

The record lists no formal flavour notes, but the Forbidden Fruit parent is known for exactly that, a fruity aroma passed cleanly to the offspring. Expect the sweeter, riper end of the spectrum rather than anything sharp or savoury, with the OG backbone lending a little earthy weight beneath. The source is quiet on specifics; the lineage is not.

The high

No formal effects are recorded, but Forbidden Fruit is noted for a balanced, cerebral-and-physical high, and this one inherits it. At 17.02 percent THC the strength is moderate, the experience even-handed: a lift for the head paired with a settling for the body. Neither end dominates, which is much the appeal of the fruit-and-OG pairing.

Growing it

Tall, 300 to 400cm given the room, so this is firmly a plant for the outdoors or a very generous indoor space, with early training a necessity rather than an option. Flowering wraps in around 63 days for 500 to 600 g/m². The height is the thing to plan around; hand her the vertical space and she rewards it, contain her early or she will simply run. Standard care otherwise, and clean tools at harvest.
