Named after the crunchy almond cookies that pair so well with espresso, Biscotti serves up a similarly sweet and nutty experience, only this one grows in your tent. Royal Queen Seeds offers this indica-dominant hybrid as feminized seeds, combining big dessert flavor with serious potency and rewarding harvests.
Her breeding started with Gelato 25, a descendant of the original Gelato (Sunset Sherbet x Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies). Royal Queen Seeds then brought in South Florida OG, a line built from Lemon Thai and Hindu Kush that is known for heavy THC levels. The final mix is 80% indica and 20% sativa, with THC up to 25%.
Indoors, Biscotti peaks around 3 to 4 feet (90–120 cm) and can be trained down to about 2.6 feet (80 cm). After 55–65 days (about 8 to 9 weeks) of bloom she produces 16 to 19 oz/m² (455–540 g/m²). Outdoors she reaches 5 to 6 feet (150–185 cm) and yields 19 to 21 oz/plant (540–595 g/plant) in October.
Flavor and Effects: Sweet, Nutty, and Uplifting
Her name says it all. Biscotti opens with a sweet, toasted, nutty cookie flavor that dominates the palate, while notes of cracked pepper, a whiff of diesel, and ripe fruit dance in the background. The result is rich and layered, like dipping a fresh biscotti into a cup of dark roast.
Many consumers expect an 80% indica to glue them to the couch, but Biscotti tends to surprise. As the flavors fade, a creative, uplifting, and motivating high takes hold, lifting the mood and nudging you toward a project. With THC up to 25%, the effect has staying power, giving you plenty of time to put that spark to good use.
It feels like sitting in a sunny Italian café with a sketchbook, coffee in hand, ideas flowing. Experienced consumers will enjoy her strength; beginners should start with a small amount.
Growing Biscotti: Bushy Plants, Big Rewards
Biscotti grows with classic indica morphology: a bushy canopy, broad leaflets, and a medium height that suits most indoor spaces. Topping and low-stress training spread her branches and keep her short, while a SCROG net helps maximize the number of evenly lit bud sites.
With adequate lighting and a well-planned feeding schedule, indoor plants pay off handsomely. Outdoors she appreciates extra room for her roots and branches, and since she prefers short summers, she’s a dependable choice for cooler climates with an October harvest.
