Candy Dawg Auto Cannabis Seeds

Candy Dawg Auto gets her name from her incredible looks and from her family ties with some of the great modern cannabis icons. This strain is an excellent choice for any hybrid fan looking for the calming effect provided by her tasty buds, which are always capable of making any day (or night) a little better.

If we add to this her excellent yielding capacity and her resilience to adversity, we can say that she’s a safe bet that brings together the best features of the top-level autoflowering strains in just one plant.

There aren’t many three-way crosses available on the market, which makes this particular strain rather special. This is a potent Candy Kush/Chem Dawg hybrid backcrossed with the outstanding OG Kush to obtain top THC levels. If you don’t know the powers of these three rock stars, then it’s about time we introduced you to them.

Candy Kush is a marijuana hybrid that combines two Cali classics: OG Kush (an indica believed to be the ‘Christopher Wallace’ phenotype), and Trainwreck (sativa). The result is a stocky and bushy plant typical of the indica-dominant lineages (although some phenos are more sativa-leaning and develop a structure more characteristic of Trainwreck). As the name suggests, her taste is as sweet as candy, with a strong lemon/Kush aroma. Her THC levels tend to range between 17 and 19%, so she’s a popular choice amongst medical growers because she delivers a potent physical high accompanied by pronounced pain relief.

On the other side of the road appears Chem Dawg, a legendary strain with uncertain genetic history. Although she’s believed to have been born from the cross of native sativa varieties from Thailand and Nepal, many have claimed the creation of this strain, including the story of a complicated seed exchange between fellow growers at a Grateful Dead concert. Whatever her beginnings may be, Chem Dawg has become a basic element of the US cannabis market with her unique flavour, which includes diesel and pine hues, and her happy and energetic high. Although her THC levels are moderate, she hits hard and fast, so she’s great for those who don’t have time to lose.

And what more can be said about OG Kush, one of the most popular varieties available on the market in recent years. Even though she has a name that is almost as popular as Super Skunk or White Widow, her origins still remain somewhat of a mystery. Although nobody’s completely sure, OG Kush probably derives from the cross of Chem Dawg and Hindu Kush or Old World Paki Kush. This is an indica-dominant hybrid known for her high THC count, which leads to intense cerebral effects, giving users a wonderful blend of body-melting euphoria and a calm and tranquil state of mind. If you’ve ever had the pleasure of smelling Seedstockers’ OG Kush, you’ll know that it is one of the freshest aromas that nature can produce.

This plant develops dense mint green buds with purple hues and a layer of tiny frosty white crystal trichomes. It comes as no surprise that they often take on a rather bold purple background as well, with shades ranging from light to dark, from weak to strong. In the midst of this sea of violets, you can catch glimpses of deep neon green sugar leaves with bright orange pistils that stretch and curl directly towards the clouds.

These sugar leaves are also equally dazzling, with tips ranging from deep purple and burgundy through to coral orange, as if it were a powerful expressionist painting. Both this richness of colour and the bud density help this plant stand out in any pot, bag, or display stand.

When a Candy Dawg Auto bud is squeezed, the aroma that it releases can be defined as earthy and spicy, with touches of pine and hints of sun-ripened fruits and berries. This extremely aromatic strain is highly acclaimed due to its deeply stratified scent, which can be slightly different depending on the grower. One thing that’s certain is that she smells amazing: it's like a bowl of syrupy berries in the middle of your room, which can be deliciously overwhelming.

Candy Dawg Auto’s main terpenes include myrcene, caryophyllene, and ocimene. The latter may sound unfamiliar, but ocimene is the monoterpene responsible for some of the more herbal and sweet aromas of certain cannabis varieties. In addition, it can also provide some citrus aroma to marijuana, mixed with woody tones.

Terpenes affect flavour but also provide their own set of medical and recreational effects. This specific marijuana terpene also has protective properties attributed to it. Pests like aphids, which can be very harmful to cannabis grows, tend to stay away from strains that contain ocimene.

What’s clear is that Candy Dawg Auto has the most unique and strong terpene profile that you can find in an automatic. Some growers even identify this aroma, after several months’ curing, with that of sweet and sour pickles; so this is certainly a variety that will also surprise lovers of the most exclusive extracts.

Candy Dawg Auto’s attractive scent is perfectly balanced by a delicious flavour reminiscent of sweets and fruits. The notes of pine and berries are transferred from the nose to the palate, where the fruity flavours persist (most specifically, a taste of sweet and sour lemon with a rich purple grape aftertaste). During inhalation, most people notice the spicy/herbal taste, but there’s also a persistent berry sweetness that reaches the back of the tongue; and you can even predict the citrus explosion on exhalation.

With a lab-measured THCA content between 15 and 20%, this strain is ideal for a wide range of users. Those with high tolerance to cannabis find her even better, as her cannabinoid levels are well balanced, neither too high nor too low. When exposed to light or heat, or even with the passing of time, THCA undergoes a process called decarboxylation (i.e. the elimination of a carbon atom from its molecule), which transforms it into its active form: THC.

While Candy Dawg Auto’s THC content may seem relatively modest, if you’re looking for relaxing weed that doesn’t catapult you straight to the couch, then this is the one for you. She hits your brain slowly, sending out bursts of energy so that you can experience a highly creative session. This is a stimulating option that will not only make you feel happier, but also more focused and even hungrier.

Just like rain on a tin roof at night, Candy Dawg Auto has a special way of relaxing you to your core. The high starts with a slow build-up of effects after your final exhalation, making its way into your mind with a soothing urge that relieves any negative or accelerated thinking.

You’ll discover that your mind feels relaxed and slightly out of focus, with a budding sense of creative euphoria that gets your mental gears spinning; so give this strain a try if you want to work on a long-forgotten project, for instance.

You will be overcome with joy as your high continues, but be prepared to come down in the best possible way afterwards. If you’re sensitive to cannabis, you can expect to fall into a pretty deep sleep, whereas others may feel intensely relaxed to the point of becoming couch-locked.

Since this is a balanced hybrid, she can offer the best of several worlds in terms of therapeutic relief. She’s most often used to treat different types of pain, and she’s pretty good at her job. But users who often have sad nights will also enjoy watching their anxiety and depression dissolve away, making room for the ability to fall asleep.

Chronic stress, the symptoms of arthritis, or even appetite problems can also be easily treated with Candy Dawg Auto, making this strain one that you should always have close to hand. In addition, her effects don’t last for too long: after an hour you’ll feel that they start to slowly fade away.

Due to her autoflowering genetics, Candy Dawg Auto develops into a compact but vigorous plant, with good internodal spacing and many lateral ramifications which make her look like a Christmas bush. As she flowers, the internodes become shorter, which causes the buds to stack up in each internode. This leads to the development of rather thick lateral branching full of satellite buds, which ends in a very tall main cola that shoots up past the rest.

This plant stands out for being extremely robust and tall for an autoflowering, with flexible branches that withstand really well the weight of her above-average crops. Although she’s not demanding in terms of care, this strain will reward you with specimens as high as 100 cm if you provide her with a little TLC. In addition, the great stabilisation and development work carried out by our Seedstockers breeders guarantees the production of very homogeneous plants that will help you to better optimise your growing space.

If you’re one of those who get lost among the pots and pans, the smoked notes of a barbecue sauce will combine very well with Candy Dawg Auto’s dominant terpene, myrcene, adding some spicy sweetness to the mix. Since we suggest trying this strain after a stressful day, you may also want to look up, for instance, a recipe for pink grapefruit sorbet to end the day as if you were a marquess in a Hawaiian shirt. As the tart sorbet melts in your mouth, so will your sorrows and all thoughts of those who caused them.
