A delicious power breakfast for the busy pothead!
Candy Punch is an incredibly rare cannabis hybrid that combines the sweetness of Candy with the berry and lemon flavors of Fruit Punch.This delicious, Sativa-leaning strain has a THC content of up to 20%, making it an excellent choice for those seeking a powerful high.
Candy Punch is perfect for wakin’ and baking. It delivers a boost of energy that quickly demonstrates a cerebral mindset. The high can also make mundane household chores like cleaning up and doing the dishes more enjoyable. Moreover, this inspiring and stimulating smoke increases one’s sense of focus, helping consumers work on creative activities or pay attention to the subtleties in both music and movies. On the medical side, it can stimulate appetite, relieve pain, and ease the symptoms of stress and fatigue.
Currently, Candy Punch can only be grown using regular seeds. Cultivators have the opportunity to grow both male and female cannabis plants and collect pollen with this seed variety, making it ideal for some serious breeding efforts. While more complicated to use for growing for consumption, females from regular seeds tend to be robust, resilient, and a fantastic source of high-quality buds as long as they are not accidentally fertilized. If you’re up to the challenge and have the skills and experience in handling regs, don’t miss out on the chance to grow this rare and flavorful weed.

The regular seeds of Candy Punch may be successfully grown in either indoor or outdoor environments, in whatever medium the cultivator prefers. It is a disease-resistant plant and considered small for a Sativa-dominant strain.
Half of the plants that sprout from
regular seeds will develop into females, and the other half will become male. For growing unseeded marijuana buds, only female plants are needed, and males must be weeded out of the grow room as soon as possible.
Any medium, soil or soil less, can be used to grow Candy Punch. It really comes down to personal preference.As for grow training methods, low-stress training techniques such as Screen of Green (ScOG) are most suitable to encourage the plant to grow laterally, making it bushier rather than lanky. This strain only grows between a meter and a meter and a half, but its thin stem and branches could use the support the screen provides in carrying its flowering sites. If you do not plan to ScrOG, prevent any breakage by setting up a trellis, wire cage, bamboo canes, string, or plant yoyos for structure support.
Besides a fitting grow technique, optimizing the temperature, relative humidity, and pH level will help the plant thrive and produce bigger, high-quality buds. The ideal relative humidity for these plants can vary from 35 to 70%, with an optimal range of between 45-55%. In terms of temperature, these plants typically thrive in moderate climates with temperatures ranging from 65-75°F. Ideally, the temperature should be stable around this range, and it should not dip below 60°F or rise above 80°F for prolonged periods.
The ideal pH level for cannabis plants grown in soil is between 6.0 and 7.0. This range allows the plants to access the full spectrum of nutrients available in the soil. Cannabis plants grown in hydroponics can tolerate a wider range of pH levels, from 5.5 to 8.0. However, for optimal growth, it is best to maintain a pH level between 6.0 and 7.0. Cannabis plants are sensitive to fluctuations in pH levels, so it is vital to test the pH of the grow medium regularly and make adjustments as needed.
This plant takes 8 to 10 weeks to finish the flowering stage. That is a relatively short period for a Sativa-leaning plant.In the end, Candy Punch can produce around 400 to 500 grams per square meter.
Outdoors, the harvest rolls around mid to late October, just before winter frost sets in. Loads of sunlight and warmth are the keys to success in growing Candy Punch outdoors. Under favorable conditions, one plant can provide as much as 500 grams.
How to identify the sex of cannabis plants?
The genders will manifest at the end of the vegetative stage but are not always apparent in young cannabis plants. So how can you tell if your plant is male or female? One of the easiest ways to tell the gender of a cannabis plant is to look for pollen sacs. These are typically found on male plants and will appear as small, round balls. If you see pollen sacs, you can be confident that your plant is male. Another way to determine gender is to look for pre-flowers. These are tiny flowers that appear on the nodes of both male and female plants. Male pre-flowers will have pollen sacs, while female pre-flowers will have pistils. Armed with this information, growers should be able to quickly determine the gender of cannabis plants.
Soil or soilless?
Soil and hydroponics are two different methods of growing cannabis, each with their own unique advantages and disadvantages. With soil, cannabis grows naturally in soil-based mediums, such as soil or compost. This allows plants to more easily access nutrients from the soil, leading to healthier buds and faster growth rates. However, soil-based growing carries the risk of pests and soil diseases that can harm plants and interfere with the harvest.
By contrast, hydroponics uses artificial nutrient solutions to nourish cannabis plants. Because there is no soil involved in this process, plants do not risk exposure to soil-borne pathogens, making it an excellent choice for growers looking for a clean crop without reliance on pesticides or fertilizers. Furthermore, hydroponics tends to produce higher yields than traditional soil-growing methods due to the increased available nutrients in soil-less mediums. While these advantages make hydroponics an attractive option for would-be cannabis growers, the specialized equipment required can be pricey and may not be ideal for beginners. Ultimately, when deciding between soil or hydroponics for growing cannabis, it is essential to consider your level of experience and your goals for the plant yield.
Why and how to ScrOG?
ScrOG, or screen of green, is a cannabis growing technique that involves using a screen to evenly distribute light and encourage even growth. There are many benefits to ScrOG, including increased yield, shorter plants, and more even light distribution. ScrOG also helps prevent diseases and pests by keeping the canopy open and allowing better air circulation. To ScrOG your cannabis plants, you will need to set up a frame with a screen attached. The screen should be placed about 2-4 inches above the top of the plant. Once the structure is in place, you will need to train the plants to grow through the screen by gently bending them over and tucking them under the wire. As the plants grow, you will need to continue to train them so that they evenly fill the screen. Once the plants have filled the screen, you can begin harvesting your crop. ScrOG is an effective way to increase yield and create more even light distribution in your cannabis plants. By following these simple steps, you can achieve great results with ScrOGging.
