The skilful breeders of Zambeza really challenged themselves on this one. With having the goal of creating one of the most intense chocolate strains on the market, they went out on their worldwide hunt for the best genetics for Choco Candy. Luckily, they found a perfect match between Chocolate Haze and OG Chocolate Thai. Both of these strains already had the pronounced chocolate aroma, but it wasn’t strong enough to satisfy true chocolate lovers. Hand-selecting the phenotypes that develop the strongest chocolate taste, and then crossbreeding them over many generations, took its time. Things are ready when they’re ready. And yes, they truly are.
Choco Candy is sativa-dominant and clearly shows this in its growing traits. Indoor growers can expect plants that are 100-150cm tall, yielding up to 400-450g/m². Guerilla- and outdoor growers will most likely grow plants that are 120-200cm in height, and harvest around 400-500g per plant, depending on the climatic conditions. The flowering time was brought down to about 65 days, which is relatively short for a Haze variety with this extreme potency.
When it comes to flavour and high, things are really getting exciting. Advanced smokers will agree that there are not many Haze varieties on the market with such a delightful blend of aromas. The taste is rather fresh, very sweet, and most importantly, has noticeable chocolate aromas. The effects after smoking Choco Candy are equally amazing. The high is very fast-hitting, euphoric, and uplifting. Positive feelings can be felt almost instantly, and result in a head-high that make every day the perfect day to discover something new.
Choco Candy is a strain that is meant to be grown by someone who is interested in unique flavours and a strong, uplifting Sativa effect. Prospective and existing Haze lovers might appreciate the relatively short flowering time, especially when having in mind that many Haze strains often need a flowering time of 11 weeks or more. The best is yet to come: Zambeza Seeds follows the philosophy of offering its customers high quality seeds at a competitive price. See for yourself!

Strain FAQ
Does climate effect cannabis chocolate flavour?
Terpenes that give chocolate its flavour are affected by climate. Cooler climates increase the production of terpenes that give strains their chocolaty scent and taste.
Why are South American landraces valuable?
After years of adaptation to their particular surroundings, South American landrace strains are prized for their pure DNA. Due of their particular qualities, breeders want these strains to bring new genetic traits into hybrid breeds.
Why do legal indoor cannabis growers need strain-specific environments?
Indoor cultivation offers the potential to fulfil each cannabis strain's dream circumstances. By tailoring temperature, humidity, and illumination cycles to each strain, legal growers may achieve uniformity and quality that's impossible to match outside.
How has hybridization and adaptation changed Kush strains?
Kush strains have adapted to change, blending their genetics to create new types. This hybridization has expanded the cannabis gene pool and tailored strains to specific needs.
What to think of when buying tall cannabis strains?
One thing to consider is that some people reportedly find the height of the plant difficult to manage. To limit plant height and promote horizontal development, techniques such as topping and training are used. This management prevents plants from outgrowing their space and ensures even light dispersion.
