Forbidos

The Origin Story Nobody Asked For

In House Genetics spent eight generations perfecting Forbidos, because apparently it takes that long to breed a plant that makes you forget your own Netflix password. They crossed Forbidden Fruit with Trophy Wife—basically the cannabis equivalent of marrying a yoga instructor to a tax accountant. The result? A strain with 70% indica dominance that’s been described by lab nerds as having "over 171 descendant strains," which sounds impressive until you realize that’s just fancy talk for "this plant got around."

Effects: From Human to Hibernation Mode

Expect the classic indica trilogy: eyes get heavy, thoughts get weird, and suddenly your couch becomes a legitimate life partner. The 18-24% THC isn’t here to play nice—it’s here to remind you why standing is overrated. Users report feeling "melted" (technical term: decarboxylated human), with a body high so thorough you’ll start questioning if your legs ever really worked. Creativity spikes briefly, then immediately gets distracted by the texture of carpet. Perfect for activities like: existing horizontally.

Flavor Profile: Citrus & Existential Crisis

Tastes like someone squeezed a lemon over a pine tree, then sprinkled it with "I should text my ex" energy. The 60+ flavor compounds include dominant notes of lemon caviar (which is apparently a thing), sweet undertones, and that earthy finish that screams "I peaked in high school." The flavor stays consistent throughout the session, unlike your life choices. Pro tip: pair with literally anything edible because this strain turns your mouth into a black hole.

Growing: For People Who Hate Themselves

This strain grows dense purple-green buds with more trichomes than your last situationship had red flags—50,000 per square centimeter, to be exact. Flowering time is 8-9 weeks, which is just long enough for you to question all your life decisions. Yields are solid if you can stop checking on it every 20 minutes like a helicopter parent. The purple hues develop best when you treat it like that one friend who only responds to emotional manipulation.

Medical Uses (According to Your Dealer)

Doctors hate this one trick for eliminating insomnia! The indica dominance makes it a go-to for chronic pain, anxiety, and that persistent feeling that your group chat is talking about you. The minimal CBD content (0.2-1%) means you’ll get all the psychoactive benefits without any of that "I’m suddenly productive" nonsense. Side effects may include: forgetting what you were just mad about, ordering $47 worth of Taco Bell, and developing a meaningful relationship with your ceiling fan.

Who Should Smoke This (Spoiler: Not You, Chad)

Ideal for introverts who want to become one with their furniture, people whose yoga instructor said they need to "ground themselves," and anyone who’s ever used a weighted blanket as actual clothing. Not recommended for: first dates, job interviews, or attempting to look cool at a music festival. If your idea of a good time is becoming a human burrito while contemplating if fish have nightmares, congratulations—you’ve found your spirit strain.
