What is the Candyland strain?

Candyland is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 29.0% THC, known for its euphoric effects and berry and candy flavor profile.

Candyland is a popular hybrid cannabis strain, known for its sweet and candy-like flavors. This delightful strain was created by crossing the legendary Granddaddy Purple with the equally famous Bay Platinum Cookies. The result of this crossbreeding is a well-balanced strain that offers users an enjoyable mix of relaxation and uplifting euphoria. The Candyland strain, also known as the Kandyland strain, is a Sativa-dominant hybrid (70% Sativa / 30% Indica) that was developed in 2003. It proudly holds the title of an award-winning strain, having won a prestigious gold medal at the 2012 KushCon. Ken Estes, the creator of the legendary GDP, was looking for a less sedating strain compared to GDP. Estes chose a Cookies strain due to its mold resistance and low-maintenance in the grow room. Estes crossed a male GDP plant with a female phenotype of Bay Platinum Cookies. The Candyland cannabis strain is visually stunning with vibrant buds that are a sight to behold. As a hybrid, it combines the best traits from both its parent strains, Granddaddy Purple and Bay Platinum Cookies, resulting in dense nugs. Candyland's buds showcase an array of colors, with shades of purple inherited from Granddaddy Purple blending beautifully with the various hues of green found in Bay Platinum Cookies. The trichomes on these buds glisten like sugar crystals, adding to their candy-like appeal.
