How to grow Candyland
Seb's take
Bay Platinum Cookies crossed with Ken's Grand Daddy Purple gives deep-purple, frosted buds with real bag appeal. Sweet, earthy and pungent with a piney, tropical edge; the high is powerful but oddly companionable, happy and energetic enough for daytime use once you've found your feet. A dispensary favourite for good reason.
Growing Candyland: what to expect
Feminized photoperiod seed: every plant a female, and flowering starts when you change the lights — which puts the calendar in your hands. The photoperiod lesson covers using that control well.
Flowering runs the standard 9 weeks — no surprises, which in this business is a compliment. The flowering stage guide covers what each of those weeks should look like.
She stays under the metre mark — tent-friendly, discreet, and unbothered by low ceilings. Run the numbers on the light planner and she'll fit wherever you put her.
The yield is, in plain terms, heavy — 800 g/m² when she's looked after. Branches will need support before they need sympathy; see supporting heavy colas.
Breeder figures put THC around 19% — firmly in the strong band. The number speaks for itself; we'll not add adjectives to it.
Earthy on the nose — the old-school profile, done properly.
Effects report as chiefly uplifting — she raises the tone of a room rather than lowering the lights.
