Double XL Forbidden Runtz
Also known as: Forbidden Runtz XL, Double XL Runtz
Double XL Forbidden Runtz Strain Overview
Double XL Forbidden Runtz is a relatively new cannabis strain that emerged in the late 2010s as part of the 'Runtz' family of cultivars that gained significant popularity in California's cannabis scene. This particular phenotype represents an enhanced version of the original Forbidden Runtz, selectively bred for increased potency, larger yields, and more pronounced terpene expression. The strain's development reflects the ongoing trend in cannabis breeding toward creating more potent and flavorful variations of popular existing genetics.
The strain exhibits dense, chunky buds with a distinctive appearance characterized by deep purple and forest green coloration interspersed with bright orange pistils. A thick coating of trichomes gives the flowers a frosty, crystalline appearance that suggests high cannabinoid content. The buds typically have a dense, indica-dominant structure despite the strain's hybrid classification, with tight internodal spacing and substantial calyx development.
Notable features include its complex aromatic profile that combines sweet, fruity notes with gassy undertones, and its reputation among cultivators for producing above-average yields compared to other Runtz phenotypes. The 'Double XL' designation refers to both the enhanced size of the flowers and the increased potency reported by users. As with many modern designer strains, availability can be limited to specific markets and cultivators, and consistency between different grows may vary due to phenotypic expression differences.

Double XL Forbidden Runtz Strain Growing Information
Double XL Forbidden Runtz is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plant has a flowering time of approximately 8-9 weeks indoors and finishes outdoors in late September to early October in the Northern Hemisphere. Indoor yields are typically above average, with 450-550 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can produce 500-700 grams per plant in suitable climates.
The strain prefers a controlled indoor environment but can also thrive outdoors in Mediterranean climates with consistent temperatures. Plants tend to remain medium in height (3-4 feet indoors, 4-6 feet outdoors) with a bushy structure that benefits from pruning and training techniques like topping and low-stress training. Special considerations include maintaining stable humidity levels during flowering to prevent mold in the dense buds, and providing adequate nutrient support during the vegetative stage to support the 'XL' growth characteristics. The strain responds well to both soil and hydroponic growing methods.
