How to grow Crystal Candy F1 Fast Version
Taste
Seb's take
The same Crystal Candy and Sweet Special Auto cross, run through a faster generation and garlanded with first place at the 2017 Spannabis Cup. Sweet, strawberry and fruity throughout — reportedly one of the sweetest strains Sweet Seeds have produced. The high is relaxed, happy and euphoric, 60% Indica in structure.
Where it comes from
The same cross behind the Auto version, the original Crystal Candy with Sweet Special Auto, but bred here as a Fast Version rather than a true autoflower. She still needs the photoperiod switch; she simply finishes far sooner. The line took first place at the 2017 Spannabis Cup, and Sweet Seeds count her among the sweetest they have produced. A faster generation of a decorated favourite, with the awards to vouch for the pedigree.
Nose & flavour
Sweet before anything else, with ripe strawberry leading and a broad fruitiness filling in behind. Given her billing as one of the sweetest in the Sweet Seeds catalogue, that is precisely what you would expect and precisely what turns up. A confectionery nose, front to back, and no apology for it.
The high
Relaxed and happy, tipping into a clear euphoria at the peak, an even indica-led balance that lifts the mood without unmooring it. Pleasant and sociable rather than heavy, the sort of effect that earns a cup by being enjoyable rather than merely strong. Good company across most of the day.
Growing it
The headline is speed: forty-two to forty-nine days of flowering, call it roughly forty-six, which is quick for a photoperiod plant. Yields hold up regardless at 450 to 600 g/m² indoors. No height is recorded, so read her by nature: a 60 percent indica structure that stays compact and bushy, well suited to a shorter cycle. THC runs 15 to 21 percent. For a grower short on time but unwilling to give up quality, she makes a strong case.
