Indica

Also known as: Papas Candy

Papa's Candy Strain Overview

Papa's Candy is a legendary indica-dominant cannabis strain originally bred by Eva Seeds, created by crossing genetics from Laos and Pakistan. This renowned strain has won more than 10 cannabis awards, including multiple prizes at Spannabis and other international competitions. Unfortunately, Papa's Candy was discontinued by Eva Seeds and now 'rests in peace' in their graveyard catalog, though its genetics live on in hybrid strains like Veneno, Furious Candy, and Gorilla Candy. The strain is characterized by its extremely resinous buds that appear almost white due to heavy trichome coverage, earning it a reputation as a 'true resin factory.' Papa's Candy displays typical Christmas tree-shaped growth with wide, short structure and very compact buds that are completely coated in crystalline trichomes. The strain offers an intense, sweet aroma with distinctive aniseed and strawberry bubblegum notes, creating a candy-like scent profile that inspired its name. With its short flowering time of 45-55 days and exceptional resin production, Papa's Candy became ideal for creating high-quality extracts and concentrates.
