Sorbet 4 cannabis seeds are a feminised photoperiod hybrid that delivers fruity-creamy flavour, dense resinous buds, and a balanced 60% indica profile for growers who want quality over raw yield. This DNA Genetics release crosses the legendary Gorilla Glue #4 with their own Sorbet line — resulting in a tall, vigorous plant packed with resin and a balanced physical-cerebral profile. Proper fun to grow, as long as you keep her size in check, and a favourite when people buy feminised seeds for hash-making.
Why grow Sorbet 4 cannabis seeds
Sorbet 4 cannabis seeds are worth growing because they combine GG#4's trichome density with Sorbet's dessert-like flavour profile in one feminised pack. You get the dense, sticky, trichome-loaded nugs Gorilla Glue made famous, layered with the fruity and creamy notes of the Sorbet side. Flavour is properly dank: think sweet sherbet up front, with that gluey diesel-skunk depth underneath.
The effect hits both ends. Physically relaxing like you'd expect from an indica-leaner, but with a cerebral, happy, uplifting feel on top (verbatim framing from DNA Genetics' own strain notes). Good social smoke with mates, also solid for winding down after work. Not a knockout couch-locker, not a racy head-rush — somewhere in the middle, which is why growers keep coming back to this line.
For anyone into hash and concentrates, this is where Sorbet 4 really earns her keep. GG#4 genetics are famously resinous, and the Sorbet cross doesn't water that down. Bubble hash, rosin, dry sift — she's got the trichome density to reward the effort.
Grow specs and what to expect
Sorbet 4 flowers in around 9 weeks and yields roughly 500 g/m² indoors under optimal conditions. DNA Genetics warn you up front: tall, wild, vigorous, with multiple side branches that stack up with large resinous buds. That yield is solid, not record-breaking — but the quality of what you harvest is where the value sits.

Best training method for Sorbet 4
ScrOG is the best training method for Sorbet 4 because her vigorous side-branching turns every tucked branch into a main cola site under the net. If you've got the time and patience for a screen of green, this is the strain that pays you back for it — that's how you turn "tall and wild" into "500 g/m² of dense, resinous bud."
If ScrOG isn't your thing, topping and LST work fine. Top her once or twice early in veg, tie down the side branches as they stretch, and you'll keep her in a manageable shape for a standard grow tent. The one approach we'd avoid: letting her run untrained in a short tent. She'll hit the light, stretch into hot spots, and you'll be scrambling to supercrop mid-flower. Plan the training before you pop the seed.
How to grow Sorbet 4 step by step
Growing Sorbet 4 takes roughly 12–14 weeks from seed to harvest, split across germination, a 3–5 week veg, and about 9 weeks of flowering. Follow the steps below to get the most out of her.
- Germinate using the paper-towel method or a peat plug — feminised seeds from DNA Genetics germinate reliably in 24–72 hours at around 22°C.
- Transplant into your final pot (minimum 11L for indoor, bigger if you've got the space) once the taproot is established and the first true leaves appear.
- Veg for 3–5 weeks under 18/6 light. Top once she has 4–5 nodes. If running a ScrOG, install the screen now.
- Switch to 12/12 to flip into flower. Expect significant stretch in the first two weeks — this is when the "tall and wild" shows up.
- Tuck branches under the screen (ScrOG) or tie them down (LST) through week 3 of flower. After that, let the buds fatten undisturbed.
- Flush the final 1–2 weeks with plain water. Monitor trichomes — harvest when most are cloudy with a few amber for the balanced indica/sativa effect.
- Dry slowly at 18–20°C and 55–60% humidity for 10–14 days, then cure in glass jars for at least 3 weeks. Burping daily the first week.
Sorbet 4 compared to other DNA Genetics strains
Sorbet 4 stands out in the DNA Genetics catalog as the resin-heavy balanced hybrid, sitting between Kosher Kush's indica weight and Tangie's sativa zing. The table below shows how she lines up against three other popular DNA Genetics strains.
| Strain | Indica/Sativa | Flowering | Yield (indoor) | Flavour profile |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sorbet 4 | 60/40 | ~9 weeks | ~500 g/m² | Fruity, creamy, dank |
| Kosher Kush | Indica-dominant | ~9 weeks | ~500 g/m² | Earthy, fruity, kush |
| Tangie | Sativa-dominant | ~9-10 weeks | ~500 g/m² | Citrus, tangerine |
| LA Confidential | Indica-dominant | ~8 weeks | ~450 g/m² | Piney, earthy, skunky |
Where Sorbet 4 sits in the DNA Genetics catalog: she's the resin queen. If you want knockout indica stone, get Kosher Kush. If you want zesty sativa energy, Tangie. If you want the full spread — balanced effect, heavy trichome coverage, flavour that stands on its own — Sorbet 4 cannabis seeds are the pick.
Honest limitations
Sorbet 4 is not a beginner strain and 500 g/m² is good rather than exceptional — two honest caveats worth naming before you buy. The height, the vigour, the side-branching — it all adds up to a plant that punishes neglect. If you're on your first or second grow and you haven't done any training yet, pick something more forgiving like Northern Light and come back to Sorbet 4 cannabis seeds once you've got topping and LST dialled in.
Second thing: if raw yield is your priority over everything else, there are higher-yielding strains in the shop. You grow Sorbet 4 for the quality of the resin and the flavour, not for maxing out grams per watt.
Pairs well with a ScrOG net and a solid LED — the Mars Hydro TS 1000 or similar 150W-class light handles a single Sorbet 4 in a 80x80 tent comfortably. For hash-making after harvest, get a set of bubble bags — her resin density is exactly what those kits are designed for.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Sorbet 4 suitable for beginners?
Not really. She's vigorous, tall, and needs training (topping, LST, or ideally ScrOG) to manage her size and maximise yield. If it's your first grow, start with something less demanding and come back to Sorbet 4 when you've got a couple of harvests under your belt.
How tall does Sorbet 4 get indoors?
Tall enough to cause problems in a short tent if untrained. DNA Genetics describe her as a "real beast" with significant stretch in early flower. Plan for at least 120cm of vertical space post-stretch, or commit to ScrOG/LST from the start to keep her low and wide.
What does Sorbet 4 taste and smell like?
Fruity and creamy on the inhale — the Sorbet side coming through — with a dank, sticky, gluey depth underneath from the GG#4 genetics. The cure matters: a proper 3-week jar cure brings out the sherbet-creamy notes that make this strain memorable.
Is Sorbet 4 good for making hash or rosin?
Yes — this is one of her strongest cards. Gorilla Glue #4 is famously resinous, and Sorbet 4 inherits that trichome density. Bubble hash, dry sift, and rosin all work exceptionally well. If concentrates are your goal, she's one of the better picks in the DNA Genetics catalog.
How long does Sorbet 4 take from seed to harvest?
Roughly 12–14 weeks total indoors. That's 3–5 weeks of vegetative growth (longer if you're training heavily), followed by about 9 weeks of flowering. Add another 10–14 days of drying and at least 3 weeks of curing before she's ready to enjoy.
How many seeds are in a pack?
Each pack of Sorbet 4 by DNA Genetics contains 10 feminised seeds (SKU CSDG0067). All feminised, so you're not wasting grow space on males.
Where can I buy Sorbet 4 cannabis seeds?
You can buy Sorbet 4 cannabis seeds directly from Azarius — we stock the official DNA Genetics 10-pack (SKU CSDG0067) and ship discreetly across Europe. Order before the afternoon cut-off and your pack typically leaves the warehouse the same day.
