Candy Jack: Blissful Buzz
Candy Jack seeds grow into short plants with bud, fat buds. The plants are green and brown, mixed with an amber and orange finish. While the leaves are small, they still catch the sun’s powerful UV rays, turning that energy into food for the plant. While it is growing, you can notice amber and white pistils growing out of the bud sites. Looking closely at the plants, you can clearly see crystal white trichomes covering the surface area of the leaves and buds. The harvested nuggets are pale green with hints of orange and white. The trichomes transfer from the growing buds to the clipped and dried nuggets, providing the finished product with a mouth-watering aroma. Candy Jack has been awarded with the Cannabis Cup multiple times, cementing its legacy in the weed history books. If a resume is what draws you to a specific strain, then you need not look any further, Candy Jack has as good a resume as any other strain. This strain is excellent to grow and should provide you with healthy yields of dank bud.

Dial in Your Growing Conditions
- Indoor or Outdoor: Candy Jack cannabis plants can be grown indoors and outdoors by first-time growers. The ideal temperature for these plants is around 68-77 degrees Fahrenheit. During the vegetative phase, maintain a light cycle of 18-20 hours of light per day to promote healthy growth.

- Â Moisture control: Humidity levels should be kept around 40-60% during the vegetative stage and maintained at around 40-50% during the flowering stage of growth. Lowering the humidity will help keep mold and mildew off of your plants.

Each promotes better light penetration and quality air flow. These methods will also increase your yields when it comes time to harvest by adjusting or trimming the canopy to allow sunlight and air to reach even the bottom buds.
