Persian Prince, A Flavorsome Indica
The Persian Prince is a True F1 Hybrid which has an impressive parentage. It is the result of a cross between a pure Indica landrace and an old school classic. A fruity Uzbek landrace and the world renowned UK Cheese gave birth to this outstanding hybrid. Being a True F1, the Persian Prince strain combines high vigor and uniformity.
Khalifa Genetic’s Persian Prince inherits its fruity perfume from the Uzbek side of its ancestry while the skunkiness comes from the UK Cheese . High trichome production and potency however, come from both parents. Its complex, hard to describe terpene profile delights most connoisseurs.
After the plants enter the second half of their flowering cycle, the smell becomes very pungent. It is therefore almost impossible to conceal without a good carbon filter.
This True F1 Hybrid produces an intense and deeply relaxing body high. While the weed is strong and long-lasting, it is rare to experience unpleasant side effects. Users who smoked too much Persian Prince often report feeling pleasantly heavy and sleepy. This is therefore a sedative smoke that is mostly suited to nighttime use.
Easy To Grow And Productive
Being both easy to grow and heavy yielding, the Persian Prince can be a strain many commercial growers opt for. Although it is a beginner-friendly variety, the Persian is a heavy feeder. It requires higher levels of nutrients than most cannabis strains in order to fuel its important flowering stretch and high flower production. This outstanding hybrid also produces many secondary branches. Therefore, it responds very well to being topped off and is highly suitable for SROG setups. If the night temperatures are cold enough towards the end of its flowering cycle, the Prince will then reveal its majestic grape color. While most of the sugar leaves and some of the flowers turn dark purple, the smell becomes fruitier and fruitier..
Before crossing the Uzbek with the Cheese, the Khalifa Team spent almost 3 years stabilizing each parental line. Over the years, the team has been able to select the fruitiest phenotypes generation after generation while stress testing in order to increase the sexual stability. For that reason, growers can expect both vigorous and uniform plants. All the plants display a similar growth pattern and flowering time. Most importantly, they all express that delicious combination of fruity and cheesy.
While looking at its colorful buds glistening with a thick layer of fruity trichomes, it isn’t hard to see why the Persian Prince has quickly become many connoisseurs’ favorite Indica.

Poor viability at 43%. All XY so I can’t attest to quality.
Feebies included were 100% viable.

Hello James,
You said that only 40% of your Persian Prince seeds germinated.
These seeds have a viability rate close to 100%. However, the seeds have a very thick, water-proof shell so they can sometimes be hard to sprout.
Doing a cold treatment beforehand or gently cracking/nicking the seeds which haven’t sprouted on their own after 5 days will allow you to get close to 100% germination.
That being said, we are going to send you a replacement pack since customer satisfaction is our top priority.

I wanted to take a moment and follow up on my previous review, as I would hate to shed bad light on such an amazing company. I made a mistake in the germination and thus failed to achieve proper results.
The Khalifa Team kindly sent me a replacement as they promised and I couldn’t be more happy. Not many breeders or seed banks will do that for you, and it’s not something I would take for granted. THAT is beyond excellent customer service!
I wouldn’t hesitate to order here again.

Surely my favorite variety from Khalifa, serious work for a result that met my expectations.

I wanted to try Khalifa Genetics’ “Persian Prince”, as it not only has an inspired concept behind it – of the Uzbek adding to the UK Cheese – but also because I trust the company. I’m in the Pacific North West of the americas and above the 49th Parallel, so an experiment in growing that type in a challenging climate (and so under glass, in a living soil).Good germination, nice uniform plants, and the crop was excellent. However, they were not taken to the final vivid foliage colours, but dried off and cured. No surprise here, as very few of the chunky-flowered types get to full maturity here due to the damp sea mists of Oct-Nov. The smell though was a great triumph. Very happy, but in comparison, I grow a Columbian -Nepalese Highland line that is better suited to the damp, cold morning dew, of my conditions. On the whole, 8/10? Thank you for all of this. I did collect some seed of them with a Columbian father, but that will be another story…should I get round to seeing what comes out of that. In summary, some friends got a very nice smelling bag of Persian Prince for Xmas. Uses: an evening chill-out.,.

Persian Prince…
He’s a good fruity cheese hybrid.
Grown organic indoors.
Very vigorous and stressresistant in growth, the uzbek adds black currant/ blueberry vibes to coloring, smell and taste to the well known Cheese. Reacts well to pruning. Yields are solid to high. Stretch goes about 2x to 3x. Took her 64 days to flower.
The High is very “cheese” like, creeping “indica”-dominant, If you smoke too much its so stupifying, one should better go to sleep. Very Cheeselike.
Its fruitysoursweet like black currant or blueberry in the taste at first and leaves with the same taste. In between its cheesy skunky.
I Had a foxtaily pheno giving 7% fresh Frozen waterhash.
If you look for easy to grow oldschool cheese high with berry flavours, this is it.

I’m currently growing Persian Prince outside in my organic 25 gallon coco/peat. She is beautiful and stretched 3x. She is still stretching and is about 7×7 ft ball of buds. The colas are long with many satellites. She smells of citrus currently but I can’t wait for that slinky funk to come in. I have a cover for my girls and keep them dry, but she is mold resistant and noticeably bug resistant. I hope she can finish before October. Our weather gets very wet, cool, and high humidity. Fingers crossed.

What a gem?!
Danke für die schnelle Sendung und das Geschenk ich trage die in Ehren.
Von 4 Samen sind mir innerhalb 23h alle 4 aufgegangen in einem feuchten Küchentuch gewickelt in einer Plastiktüte.
Nach 4 Wochen und 8 Internisidn bei gerade Mal 20 – 25cm Höhe schicke ich die jetzt in Blüte und werde weiter berichten…..

I recently ran Persian Prince and I’m very satisfied with this strain.
The plant grows very well and is extremely generous in terms of structure and yield. I was honestly surprised by the aroma during flowering, it develops quite early and becomes really interesting and complex as the plant matures.
One thing I also noticed is that it doesn’t really need heavy feeding. It stays very happy with a fairly light nutrient input, which makes it quite an easy and forgiving plant to grow.
The effects are also very enjoyable, leaning strongly towards deep relaxation. It’s definitely not something I would recommend for daytime use, as it can really slow you down and put you into a very calm, heavy state ahaha.
I had to shorten the grow cycle on this run for personal reasons, but I would really like to run it again properly in a dedicated tent and push it to its full potential. This is clearly a very solid strain definitely one I want to redo.

Persian Prince…..I was looking at getting this strain to help alleviate chronic pain and insomnia, and really need heavy hitting indica strains for my night time needs. I couldn’t afford to buy a packet but my Persian Prince seed was a free sample again when I bought a different Khalifa strain, Al kindly added a free sample of a strain that I was hoping to buy, so you can bet your life I was wishing and a hoping that my little Persian Prince seed was going to grow…….and grow she did!! 👀😁😎😮
Not only is she growing, she is out performing the other seeds I sowed with her 👍
She is only in veg, but is showing the most vigour of the 4 or 5 other companions, and the stem rub is lemony skunk, not very sweet….not yet at least, she’s only about 4 or 5 weeks old but so far so good 👍😁😎
Hopefully I can update this post when the flowering cycle has reached its end ✌️
Hopefully this carries through into flower….Thanks to Al and the guys ✌️
