Feeling stuck in a rut with boring, harsh strains?

You’re not alone. Many growers end up with plants that smell like hay, taste like grass, and leave you either too zonked or not lifted enough. It’s frustrating when your hard work doesn’t translate into a smooth, flavorful, and balanced experience.

What if your plant stressed you out more than it helped you chill?

Weak yields, mold-prone buds, or harsh smoke can make growing feel like a chore. You start questioning whether it’s worth it — especially when you just wanted something that tastes great, grows strong, and actually helps you unwind. The truth? Most strains aren’t bred for both flavor and resilience. But that’s about to change.

This 75% indica hybrid from Royal Queen Seeds combines rare Mozambican landrace with potent Mendocino indica, giving you a plant that’s as tough as it is tasty. It grows with compact, bushy vigor, produces frosty, tree-shaped colas, and floods your senses with sweet cherry and cotton candy notes — all while delivering a smooth, full-body relaxation perfect for unwinding after dark.

How to grow Marula Fruit Regular for best results

Get the most out of your Marula Fruit Regular with this simple, phase-based guide — no guesswork, just proven steps.

Safe start

Launch your grow with strong germination and early root development.

• Use the paper towel method at 22–25 °C.
• Transplant carefully once the taproot reaches 1 cm.
• Start in 0.5 L pots with well-aerated soil.
• Boost root growth with Root Stimulator de B.A.C.

Stable seedling

Set the foundation for a bushy, resilient plant.

• Keep humidity at 60–70% and temps at 22–26 °C.
• Use low-intensity light (LED or CFL) 18 h/day.
• Water lightly — let topsoil dry between sessions.
• Apply Bio Protect to prevent early mold.

Directed growth

Shape your plant for maximum yield and airflow.

• Move to final pot (11–20 L) by week 3–4.
• Use LST to open up the canopy and expose nodes.
• Top once to encourage multiple colas.
• Feed with balanced nutrients like Kit Biobizz outdoor.

Flowering by stages

Optimize bud development from week one.

• Switch to 12/12 light cycle to trigger flowering.
• Lower humidity to 40–50% to avoid botrytis.
• Support heavy branches with stakes or netting.
• Boost resin with bloom stimulants in weeks 4–6.

Harvest, drying and curing

Lock in flavor, potency, and smoothness.

• Harvest when 70% of trichomes are milky/amber.
• Flush with plain water 7–10 days before harvest.
• Dry slowly at 18–20 °C and 50–60% RH for 10–14 days.
• Cure in jars for 2–4 weeks, burping daily.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Marula Fruit Regular good for beginners?

Yes, it’s beginner-friendly thanks to its low difficulty, resilience, and forgiving nature. Just ensure good airflow and avoid overwatering.

How do I handle the smell during flowering?

The aroma is medium to strong, especially in late flowering. Use a carbon filter like those in grow tent kits to stay discreet.

Can I grow this strain outdoors in a humid climate?

It can, but it’s sensitive to humidity. If you’re in a wet area, grow it in a greenhouse, prune lower foliage, and ensure excellent airflow to prevent mold.

What’s the best way to maximize yield?

Use SCROG or topping, provide strong light (LEC or LED), and feed with bloom boosters during peak flowering. Train early and avoid overcrowding.

Personal Experience of Pevgrow’s CEO (Alan)

I grew Marula Fruit Regular last season, and honestly, it surprised me. I expected another mellow indica, but this one’s got character. I started with 10 seeds, got a 90% germination rate, and by week 3, the plants showed serious vigor. I topped them early and used LST to spread the canopy — they responded like champs. Indoors under a 315W LEC, they stayed under 1.40 m but packed on dense, spiky colas. The smell during flowering? Heavenly — like cherry pie with a hint of earth. I flushed for 10 days and harvested at 52 days. The high is deep but not couch-locking — perfect for unwinding after a long day. My only tip? Don’t skip defoliation. These plants grow leafy, and a little pruning made a huge difference in bud quality.
