Are you looking for an autoflower that not only grows hassle-free but also impresses with its beauty and aroma? Many autoflowers offer speed but often compromise on appearance, stress tolerance or depth of flavour. You’re forced to choose between reliability and aesthetics, or risk the plant failing to withstand changeable weather conditions or requiring too much attention.

Auto Forbidden Cherry® is Dutch Passion’s answer to this dilemma. This isn’t just another autoflower; it’s a carefully engineered hybrid that combines the best of its parent strains. This strain guarantees a striking appearance, high resistance to extreme temperatures and humidity, as well as a rich flavour and aroma profile with a powerful effect. It is designed to thrive in a wide variety of conditions without requiring excessive effort from the grower.

Botanical and Scientific Overview:

Genetic origin: Auto Forbidden Cherry is a hybrid autoflowering strain derived from a cross between Purple #1 and Auto Forbidden Fruit x Cherry Pie. This provides a combination of unique characteristics, notably the purple hues from Purple #1 and the potency from Forbidden Fruit x Cherry Pie.

Morphology: The plant exhibits a classic ‘Christmas tree’ structure with a dominant central column and sturdy side branches. Although the strain is generally compact, particularly in small containers, there are phenotypes that can grow larger given sufficient space.

Autoflowering: As an autoflowering strain, it enters the flowering stage automatically, regardless of the light cycle, making it ideal for outdoor and greenhouse cultivation.

Aesthetics: One of the main advantages is the early appearance of purple hues in the buds, which are usually visible as early as the second week of flowering, giving the plant an extremely attractive appearance.
