Rainbow Candy
What is the Rainbow Candy strain?
Rainbow Candy is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 26.0% THC, known for its uplifted effects and berry and candy flavor profile.
Rainbow Candy is an indica-dominant hybrid strain created by Growers Choice, resulting from a cross between Zkittlez and Do-Si-Dos (Dosidos). The strain exhibits either a 50% indica and 50% sativa balance according to some sources, or an 80% indica and 20% sativa genetic makeup according to others, though the indica-dominant classification is more consistently reported. The strain delivers "a whole new meaning to the phrase 'taste the rainbow,'" featuring sweet, candy-like flavors mixed with tart berries and thick colas that explode in a spectrum of light green tones. Rainbow Candy is noted for its quick flowering time and compact growth characteristics, making it resilient and a favorable choice for growers of all levels.
The strain exhibits vibrant colors during the end of its flowering period and contributes to its strong terpene profile and uplifting effects. What distinguishes Rainbow Candy is its unique combination of vibrant flavors and surprisingly uplifting effects for an indica-dominant strain, combining the best of both worlds with its uplifting effects despite its indica dominance. During cultivation, the strain emits a sweet smell that "does not smell like weed anymore but is more like you are visiting a candyshop", making it a distinctive and aromatic choice for cannabis enthusiasts.

How do you grow Rainbow Candy?
The flowering period for Rainbow Candy typically spans between 8 to 10 weeks, with indoor growers reporting yields ranging between 400 to 500 grams per square meter when grown under optimized conditions. The strain can be cultivated indoors and outdoors, with indoor yields of 500-700g/m2, outdoor yields of 400-600g per plant, and indoor flowering time of 7-9 weeks. It grows like a large indica with short internodes, a big main cola and several fully packed side branches. While the strain could be harvested at 7 weeks of flowering, it's recommended to let it go until week 9 to achieve full resin development and better flavor. Training techniques such as low-stress training (LST) or Sea of Green (SOG) method can significantly boost yield and quality, leading to more even canopy and improved airflow. For outdoor cultivation, it's advised to plant in regions with dry climate and extended daylight hours to achieve maximum growth potential and high resin content.
