Also known as: Candy Peyton
Candy Payton Strain Overview
Candy Payton is a balanced hybrid cannabis strain that has gained popularity for its unique combination of sweet flavors and balanced effects. The strain's exact origins are somewhat obscure, but it is believed to have been developed by crossing Payton's Pie with an undisclosed candy-flavored strain, possibly related to the Candyland lineage. This genetic combination creates a plant that offers both cerebral stimulation and physical relaxation, making it suitable for various times of day.
The strain typically produces medium-sized, dense buds with a distinctive appearance featuring bright green foliage accented by vibrant orange pistils and a generous coating of trichomes that gives the flowers a frosty, crystalline appearance. The nugs are often tightly packed with a slightly elongated structure, and when properly cured, they break apart to reveal complex aromatic profiles. Candy Payton has become particularly noted among cannabis enthusiasts for its reliable effects and appealing sensory characteristics.
While not as widely documented as some mainstream strains, Candy Payton has developed a dedicated following in certain cannabis communities, particularly in regions where craft cannabis cultivation is prominent. The strain's balanced nature makes it versatile for different consumption preferences, and its relatively stable genetics have made it accessible to both commercial growers and home cultivators seeking consistent results with moderate growing difficulty.

Candy Payton Strain Growing Information
Candy Payton is considered a moderately difficult strain to cultivate, suitable for growers with some experience. The plants typically flower in 8-9 weeks indoors, with outdoor harvests ready by mid to late October in northern hemisphere climates. Indoor yields are moderate to high, producing approximately 400-500 grams per square meter under optimal conditions. Outdoor plants can yield 500-600 grams per plant in favorable environments.
The strain prefers a Mediterranean-like climate with consistent temperatures and low humidity, particularly during flowering to prevent mold.
