Dried Fruit Strain Info
Dried Fruit is a flavorful hybrid cannabis strain born from the expert breeding of the Cookies Seed Bank. A powerful fusion of Irene OG, Zkittlez, and Gelato 41, this strain combines the intense aroma and unique terpene profile of its parents with a robust, manageable structure. With roots that trace back to some of the most iconic strains, Dried Fruit brings both heritage and innovation together in one unforgettable experience. The genetics here offer a balance of 50% sativa and 50% indica, making this strain an all-around favorite for cultivators and cannabis connoisseurs alike.
The Dried Fruit plant is as visually striking as it is potent, showcasing dense buds that sparkle under a heavy coat of resinous trichomes. Its leaves are a rich, dark green, often with a splash of deep purple tones, and the buds display bright orange pistils that contrast beautifully with their frosted appearance. This compact structure, inherited from Gelato 41, makes it ideal for growers who want high production without overly sprawling plants. The branching is substantial but controlled, making it an excellent candidate for training techniques that maximize yield and resin production.
Flowering Time & Yield
With a flowering time of just 7 to 9 weeks indoors, Dried Fruit keeps things quick without compromising on quality. It’s a strain that rewards patience with high yields, averaging 400-450 g/m² indoors and up to 500 g/plant outdoors when grown under optimal conditions. Cultivators can expect robust, high-quality cannabis seeds that produce thick, resin-drenched buds, ideal for concentrate lovers. Outdoors, Dried Fruit reaches its peak around late September or early October, allowing for a productive and efficient harvest in warm climates.
Effects and Aroma
The effects of Dried Fruit are a blend of energy and relaxation, creating a balanced experience that starts with a gentle wave of cerebral euphoria and settles into a calming, body-soothing state. With THC levels of around 26%, it’s a powerful strain that isn’t overwhelming, making it perfect for social gatherings or unwinding after a long day. Expect bursts of creativity and laughter, followed by a serene, grounding finish.
As for its aroma, Dried Fruit lives up to its name and then some. Each puff delivers an explosion of fruity, nutty flavors with creamy, almost dessert-like undertones. Notes of tropical fruits, almonds, and a hint of gas blend into a complex terpene profile that lingers delightfully on the palate. The smoke is thick and aromatic, making each session a full sensory experience for cannabis lovers who appreciate rich, layered flavors.
Growing Tips & Our Take
For those looking to cultivate Dried Fruit, we recommend giving this strain a well-prepared setup with a bit of extra care, as it has a moderate level of difficulty when it comes to growing. Thanks to the influence of Gelato 41, this strain shows solid resistance to pests and diseases, which helps keep potential issues to a minimum. Still, preventive measures are a smart choice, especially if you're growing outdoors where bugs like spider mites or caterpillars can be a problem.
Dried Fruit flourishes in both indoor and outdoor setups, but it truly shines in warm, sunny environments with low humidity, where its terpene profile and yield potential can reach their best. If you're cultivating indoors, ensure adequate air circulation and humidity control to prevent any mold from developing on those dense, resin-heavy buds. For optimal indoor results, a 7-9 week flowering time should be monitored closely, as harvesting during this window maximizes both potency and flavor.
One thing we love about Dried Fruit is its adaptability; with the right training techniques, even cultivators with a small space can expect a bountiful harvest. The way it responds to light training, combined with its manageable structure, makes it a joy to grow. This strain’s resilience and productive nature make it a strong option for those who are ready to invest a bit of attention for exceptional results.

Dried Fruit FAQ
Is Dried Fruit sativa or indica?
Dried Fruit is a perfectly balanced hybrid, containing 50% sativa and 50% indica genetics.

With Dried Fruit, you get a harmonious balance of both, ideal for all-day enjoyment.

Its dense buds and resinous trichomes are highly rewarding for growers who dedicate time to maximizing light exposure and managing humidity.
What kind of environment does Dried Fruit thrive in?
Dried Fruit prefers a warm, sunny climate with low humidity. This environment allows its dense buds to flourish without the risk of mold.
