Potency
The breeder Heroes of the Farm crossed Space Queen with Cotton Candy Kush to get the Space Candy strain – marijuana with a unique flavor and a combo of pleasant effects. It's a perfect 50/50 balance between Indica and Sativa, with 16.75-19.75% THC on average. The harmonious blend of body and mind effects is achieved due to a wide range of cannabinoids present in this plant. They are:
- CBD 0.28-0.68%
- CBC 0.35-0.73%
- CBG 0.24-1.08%
- CBN 0.3-0.33%
- THCV 0.3-1.2%
Slightly elevated THC levels make the Space Candy weed strain suitable for intermediate smokers.
Space Candy Strain Effects and Medical Appointments
Space Candy weed offers a high to remember. It instantly makes users happy and talkative, but can also provoke giggles. The effects start with a euphoric onset and promote a deep desire and motivation to create. It's perfect for social situations; however, since Indica genetics balances out happy feelings with deep relaxation, the weed is best for nighttime use.
Space Candy cannabis is recommended for alleviating minor pain, daily stress, and mild depression. It is suitable for treating various mental and mood disorders.
When consumed in high doses, the kush may cause anxiety. Some consumers complain it may also provoke:
- Panic attacks
- Thirst and dry mouth
- Hunger
These reactions are minor and typical for strains with a higher than average potency.
Major Aromas and Terpene Profile
The aroma is earthy and citrus, counterbalanced with mild nutty notes. These scents are a characteristic of caryophyllene. As its name says, the weed tastes like sweet apple candies, so novice users like to smoke it. These odors are typical for the bisabolol and myrcene terpenes. The smoke is smooth on exhale and carries similar fruity notes.
Growing Tips
From the breeder’s mouths, the Space Candy strain is of moderate growth difficulty. It is popular in the Colorado cannabis market, but can be hard to track down anywhere outside of Colorado. It takes 42-55 days to flower, and it delivers an average yield in 63 days. Both inside and outside growth are fine, but the harvest will differ. In indoor conditions, the strain gives 1-2 oz./ft2. When cultivated outdoors, each plant delivers 15-20 ounces of dried flowers. The herbs require topping since they can amount to 60-80 inches in height. The buds are small and come with a sticky coating of resin.

this hybrid makes me very relaxed so that I feel like a bowl of noodles haha
it provokes munchies and I had an odd craving for sea food
The aroma of Space Candy is complex due to plethora of terps. It is rich in ocimene, valencene, geraniol, etc. Fruity and sweet flavors are prevailing. THC content in mine is 12%. I prefer this pheno to cope with my regular headaches. Half an hour after s
Gives light buzz which is great for hanging out with a friend and spending excellent time together. It puts me in a good mood. Im full of fun jokes and creative ideas. I feel so inspired and enjoy my life. Space Candy is worth trying, I want you to feel
I picked up a pre-roll and sampled it with a friend. Perfect pick-me-up strain that made us very social and talkative. No fear or anxiety and we felt heavenly relaxation. Exceptional taste with apple, berry, earthy notes. I can call it an overall flawless
Smells like fresh fruit but the taste is a bit earthy but I guess that depends if the bud is dry enough. Also, the trip is a real rollercoaster and it can last for 4 hours. It reminds me of Black Widow although it’s not as potent so it makes you more relaxed
read about SC on leafly the first time and realy got hooked. Ppl don’t understand how great this pot can be during the day when you just want to chill out in front of the TV and don’t think about anything other than how good it feels.
I dig the fruity taste but Im not feeling the buzz, something is missing
It lacks finishing punch…
Easy morning high
Like taking a happiness pill
