Fruity Pebbles OG
Also known as: FPOG, Fruity Pebbles, Fruity OG
Overview
Fruity Pebbles OG (FPOG) is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain created by Alien Genetics in 2006. The strain was originally developed as a limited-time offering but quickly gained popularity in Southern California due to its distinctive appearance and effects reminiscent of the famous breakfast cereal. Fruity Pebbles OG is a cross between Green Ribbon, Granddaddy Purple, and Tahoe Alien, resulting in a unique genetic profile that combines uplifting sativa effects with relaxing indica properties in a 55% indica/45% sativa ratio.
The strain is renowned for its striking visual appeal, featuring buds that display a spectacular array of colors including greens, purples, and oranges, all covered in a generous coating of resinous trichomes. This colorful appearance, combined with its sweet fruity aroma that closely resembles tropical fruit cereal, has made it one of the most sought-after strains in the cannabis community. The plant grows to medium height (5-6 feet) and produces dense, pebble-like buds that give the strain part of its name. Despite its popularity, Fruity Pebbles OG remains relatively rare and difficult to obtain due to limited seed availability and the specific growing conditions it requires.

Growing Information
Fruity Pebbles OG is considered moderately difficult to grow and is best suited for intermediate cultivators. The strain has a flowering time of 8-10 weeks (49-63 days) and prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with temperatures between 70-80°F during the day and slightly cooler nights around 65°F. It can be grown both indoors and outdoors, with indoor yields averaging 16 ounces per square meter (500g/m²) and outdoor yields reaching up to 18-19 ounces per plant (550g per plant). The plant grows tall and lanky like a sativa, reaching 5-6 feet in height, requiring adequate vertical space and support for heavy branches. SCROG (Screen of Green) training method is recommended to maximize yields. The strain requires proper ventilation due to its strong aroma and benefits from carbon filters for odor control. Plants are relatively resistant to mold and pests but need consistent environmental conditions and nutrient-rich feeding during vegetative and early flowering stages.
