Candy Kush
Candy Kush is a name shared by several distinct genetic lines, most notably a cross of [[og-kush|OG Kush]] and [[trainwreck|Trainwreck]]. Because different breeders use the name for unrelated pairings, the specific lineage and flavor profile depend entirely on the source.
About Candy Kush
The name Candy Kush is applied to multiple, genetically unrelated strains, leading to significant variation in the final product. The most prominent version, popularized by DNA Genetics’ Reserva Privada as 'Kandy Kush,' is a cross of OG Kush and Trainwreck. This selection is characterized by a profile of sweet lemon balanced by earthy, herbal, and peppery notes. Nirvana Seeds offers a separate selection using the same parentage, though their version is noted for emphasizing floral and fruity qualities over the sharper citrus of the Reserva Privada line.
Other versions of Candy Kush diverge significantly in lineage. Royal Queen Seeds produces 'Candy Kush Express,' an indica-leaning variety derived from Sweet Special and unspecified Kush genetics, resulting in a more savory, earthy, and peppery profile. Additionally, Auto Seeds offers 'Candy Kush Auto,' which combines Californian Kush genetics with Auto Pounder to create an autoflowering plant known for caramel-like sweetness and herbal spice. Across these various iterations, users generally report an initial uplifting effect that transitions into physical relaxation, sometimes progressing toward sedation as the experience wanes.
Plant characteristics
Reserva Privada’s Kandy Kush produces resinous flowers with substantial weight. Nirvana’s selection is known to stretch significantly during the flowering phase and develops long, dense buds.
