Apricot Candy is a sweet treat... She is a California-inspired Variety built on the genetics of a classic high-yielding Paradise Sativa. The Paradise breeding team focused on adding an extra dimension to the high THC content and flavour intensity of traditional Cali weed strains, further increasing the resin content and improving the yield potential. The unique flavour profile of Apricot Candy is one for connoisseurs, this extremely potent cannabis strain is as sticky as a sweet gourmet dessert.
Apricot Candy combines Paradise Seeds genetic heritage with that of a modern legend. From the Paradise side comes the mighty (and multi-award winning) Dutch Dragon, which carries South African and Dutch genes in its sativa heart. The second component is Thin Mint, a potent member of the Cookie Family, which is why it has a particularly vibrant terpene profile. The result is a fundamentally stable and uniform plant that is equipped with that certain something that gives growers and consumers the maximum wow factor.
The growth of Apricot Candy
Indoors: The sativa content of Apricot Candy inevitably means that this plant likes to stretch, and this Characteristic must be taken into account by those whose grow space is very limited in height, who need to keep the dragon in check and prevent the plants from getting out of hand. However, the indica genetic element also comes into play, with horizontal growth and plump, swollen buds. Indoor yield: 550 grams m²
Outdoors, they almost grow into trees... In Mediterranean climates, plenty of warmth and sun naturally fuel amazing vertical and horizontal growth. In northern regions, growth is not as strong, but you can still expect specimens that tower over the neighbour's fence. Outdoor yield: 1000 grams / plant
During flowering, the foliage develops bright red, purple and blue colours, which is an admirable feast for the eyes. The sativa-fuelled growth leads to a very solid branch structure, which is then covered with thick, heavily swollen buds that display a clearly indica-influenced flower structure. This Variety differs from many Cali varieties in that its icy-looking trichomes are fuelled by a particularly pronounced resin production; the flowers of this plant are covered in layers of trichomes reminiscent of a load of fresh snow.
The effect of Apricot Candy
Pleasure-related: You don't have to wait long for the effects of Apricot Candy, as they kick in almost instantly and provide an immediate energy boost. Inexperienced users should be warned of its THC content of at least 20%, but connoisseurs will appreciate the strongly uplifting sativa turn - strong but clear - which lasts for about half an hour before you gradually float over to a more relaxed state of mind and body on the wings of the dragon - typical California!
Medicinal: This is not a Variety for inexperienced cannabis users who may not be able to cope with their potency. However, the high caryophyllene content of its terpene profile ensures increased binding to the CB2 receptors in the body's endocannabinoid system and thus develops an anti-inflammatory effect.
The smell and flavour of Apricot Candy
Do you want your mouth to water? Apricot Candy is a sumptuous flavour package that leaves a lasting impression on cannasseurs, who love her unique taste and the silky smoothness of her flavour texture. Her terpene profile is dominated by caryophyllene, which gives her charismatic flavour an extra kick! Notes of apple, fresh figs and apricot unfold in the grow room - sweet and fruity, like a freshly baked fruit cake. This sweetness is also present on the palate, accompanied by a hint of vanilla - "silky" is the attribute that best describes the superb smoothness of the flavour.
