These days, as more and more consumers are learning more and more about each particular strain of cannabis, there is an increasing amount of focus on the difference between Sativa and Indica strains. While some prefer one type of strain over the other, there are also quite a few Indica/Sativa hybrid strains.

Breeders Crossed Sweet Special and O.G. Kush to Create Candy Kush Express

Generally, even strains that combine a Sativa and an Indica background tend to lean heavily towards one side or the other in both genetic background and effect. However, Candy Kush Express Fast Flowering is unique even amongst Indica/Sativa hybrids: at 40 percent sativa and 60 percent Indica, this Kush strain is about as close to a true, evenly mixed hybrid that there is available. This translates to a unique blend of both Indica and Sativa effects.

The Sweet Special strain is part of Candy Kush’s direct genetic background. Among other things, this strain is known for a sweet taste and hearty, durable plants. These assets translate to Candy Kush, as the plants are physically sturdy for growing indoors or out, and the taste is always pleasingly sweet. The legendary Royal Kush is the other genetic parent of Candy Kush. Royal Kush is a famously Indica-heavy strain, being descended itself from the inexpressibly potent Afghani Kush. Both Afghani and Royal Kush are prized amongst insomniacs for their sedative effects, and more casual and/or recreational smokers note the heavy “couch-lock” present in these strains.

Versatile High From a Well-Balanced Strain

This variety is gaining popularity for its unique blend of uplifting and deeply relaxing effects. The low CBD content helps regulate the sleepy effect of THC, meaning the strain has the capacity to relax without completely knocking users out. Indeed, users tend to experience a welcome bout of energy before really settling into the stone.
