Moon Fruit
Also known as: Moonfruit
Moon Fruit Strain Overview
Moon Fruit is a relatively modern hybrid cannabis strain developed by crossing two popular strains: Zkittlez and Purple Punch. This genetic combination brings together the candy-like sweetness of Zkittlez with the deep relaxation properties of Purple Punch, creating a balanced hybrid that has gained popularity in recent years. The strain emerged from the competitive California cannabis breeding scene, where breeders sought to create a visually striking and flavorful variety with reliable effects.
The strain's name reflects its appearance and aroma profile, with buds that often display a lunar-like coloration of pale greens and purples, complemented by a generous coating of trichomes that give the flowers a frosted, celestial appearance. Moon Fruit typically produces dense, chunky buds with vibrant orange pistils weaving through the floral structure. The strain has gained recognition for its consistent performance and appealing sensory characteristics, making it a favorite among both recreational users and medical cannabis patients.
Moon Fruit represents a successful example of modern cannabis breeding techniques, where specific terpene profiles and cannabinoid ratios are carefully selected to create predictable effects. While not as historically significant as some classic strains, Moon Fruit has established itself as a reliable and enjoyable hybrid that showcases the evolution of cannabis cultivation toward more refined and targeted genetic expressions.

Moon Fruit Strain Growing Information
Moon Fruit is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-9 weeks indoors and are ready for harvest by early to mid-October outdoors. Indoor yields average 400-500 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants can produce 500-600 grams per plant under optimal conditions. Moon Fruit prefers a controlled indoor environment but can also thrive outdoors in Mediterranean climates with consistent temperatures. Plants tend to stay medium in height, making them manageable for indoor setups. Special considerations include maintaining proper humidity levels during flowering to prevent mold, as the dense buds are susceptible to moisture issues. The strain responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yield.
