Candy Cream is an ideal indoor grow popular with medicinal users because it holds CBD tendencies, despite being an indica dominant strain.
Strain FAQ
How does myrcene affect caramel flavour?
Myrcene, with its musky, fruity undertones, isn't caramel-like but contributes to the caramel flavour when combined with other terpenes. It forms a rich, sweet base that, when coupled with other terpenes, creates full-bodied caramel.
How have tall cannabis strains been used historically?
Tall cannabis cultivars, like Hemp, have a long history beyond psychoactivity. Their fibres have been used in textiles, ropes, and building materials for ages.
Why is pest resistance especially important for cannabis strains legally grown in greenhouses?
When cannabis calls a greenhouse home, it's in a unique spot that's part cozy shelter, part natural world. This can be a double-edged sword, as the enclosed space might invite pests and mold to settle in. Strains that bring natural resistance to these unwelcome guests are said to be key players in a greenhouse setup, cutting down the need for harsh chemical pesticides and keeping things clean and green.
Where do indica strains come from and how does this effect their development?
Indica strains come from the harsh Hindu Kush mountains on the Pakistan-Afghanistan border. These plants are strong and durable because of the unforgiving climate they evolved in, which allows them to thrive even under poor conditions. They seem naturally equipped to manage tough terrain and hard times.
How are South American strains pest- and disease-resistant?
South American cannabis cultivars are said to be resistant to pests and illnesses due to their wide variety of environmental adaptations. They are ideal for breeding programmes that aim to strengthen cannabis plants due to their resilience.
