Candy Apple Kush

Candy Apple Kush is a evenly balanced hybrid (50% indica/50% sativa) strain with a character all of its own. This well-regarded bud boasts a THC level that ranges from 21-27% on average, with 0.6% CBD. It is sold as regular seeds, and it remains one of the most requested cuts in its class year after year.

The Candy Apple Kush high balances both sides of its lineage: a happy head buzz up front, and a soothing physical warmth that follows a few minutes behind. Neither side ever overpowers the other, which is exactly why well-bred hybrids like this one earn permanent shelf space. These combined effects make Candy Apple Kush a frequent pick among patients dealing with chronic stress, muscle tension and mild to moderate depression, and a reliable standby for anyone medicating on a schedule.

Candy Apple Kush has a distinctive earthy and sweet flavor that lingers on the tongue long after the exhale, with an aroma to match that grows sharper as the buds are broken apart. The smoke is smooth on the inhale with a sweet finish that builds the longer the session runs. This bud has compact rounded dense green nugs with rich blue-purple undertones, curly amber hairs and a sticky layer of golden-white trichomes.

For growers, Candy Apple Kush offers a manageable grow for anyone with a harvest or two behind them — expect plants flowering in around 8 weeks, at home indoors or outdoors. Given steady feeding and a little light training, it rewards the effort with heavy, resin-coated colas. Plants stretch to a medium height with strong side branching, equally at home in a tent or a garden bed. Its genetics run through the wider Apple family — see Apple Crisp and Apple Cru for close relatives worth comparing before you buy.
