It responds well to indoor growing techniques like topping and training, balancing the tropical sativa's need for height management with indica-derived structure.

Origins & Lineage

Fruit, under its more common names Juicy Fruit and Fruity Juice, originated in the 1990s from Dutch seed banks. It is a sativa-dominant hybrid resulting from a cross between a Thai sativa and an Afghani indica, aiming to combine the citrus-floral notes and mood elevation of Thai landraces with the denser structure and shorter flowering times of Afghan indicas.
