Aroma and flavour
Pear, sweet and honey are the flavours reviewers pick most often for Candy Kush, and its scent is described as lemon over Kush. Limonene, the citrus terpene, leads in lab data, with myrcene and caryophyllene next. Both parents carry lemon too: OG Kush is described as lemon, pine and fuel, and Trainwreck as sweet lemon and spicy pine.
Lineage
Candy Kush pairs OG Kush with Trainwreck, two strains described as California classics. Most plants grow as an indica-leaning hybrid, but some come out with more of Trainwreck’s sativa structure, so not every Candy Kush crop looks alike.
We stock its parent OG Kush in two forms: Grand Terp Auto OG Kush Indica Shatter 1G ($10) and Pacific Northwest Black Label OG Kush Indica Cured Resin 1oz ($170). The other parent, Trainwreck, is a Northern California strain bred from Mexican and Thai sativas crossed with Afghani indicas. It is also one of the two parents of Pineapple Express.
How we sell Candy Kush
Our Candy Kush is Tegridy Flower Candy Kush Hybrid AAA Cannabis Flower, grown indoors and slow cured. It comes in 7 g for $31, 14 g for $53, 28 g for $85, a quarter pound for $290 and a half pound for $515.
AAA is one step below AAAA on the letter scale sellers use, and AAA vs AAAA weed explains what separates the two. Candy Kush is priced a little above our baseline AAA flower ($30, $50 and $80 for 7, 14 and 28 g). By the ounce it works out to about $3.04 a gram, against about $4.43 a gram in the 7 g bag.
Our listing describes the flavour as sweet, fruity and kushy. As whole flower it can be rolled, packed in a bowl or vaporized, and how to roll a joint covers the first of those.
Every order with flower includes a humidity pack. If you want Candy Kush alongside other strains, it is one of the picks in our AAA Mix & Match packs, which hold two or four strains in quarter, half or full ounces.
Indica, sativa and what to expect
Strain names and types are a starting point, not a guarantee. Studies of real cannabis products have found that labels don’t reliably predict a product’s chemistry, and two batches with the same name can differ. Read the product label for THC, and see Does indica make you tired? for why.
