Comments or suggestions?

you got the right idea, stake um up, prop um up.

Strings from the celling like a pro...

if u think they are heavy now just wait a few weeks. get some string and start tieing.

Don't got a lot to tie to. They have tops everywere. An if you tie em to ceiling I can't water in my bath tub... hmm. Anyone every use like ceram wrap?? That clear shit u use to save food?

Nothing to tie to? Put an I hook in the celling and put your lines to that... Otherwise your going to have to like tape steaks to the pot and tie off to those if you need to move the girls around... But your nugs are going to get bigger and so will your issue...


strengthen your stems next time by twisting them in your fingers and waiting for a little snap they will get thicker at this point and be able to hold your buds better next time around

The importance of stem strength. Good luck though player!

I did kandy kush about a 2 years ago. I don't have the pics anymore but it was pretty nice. Mine had one huge main bud that was really dence and super frosty.

Put bamboo stakes into each pot, about three of them, and then go ahead and tie strings inbetween them to make your own adjustable tomato cage. Or, you can simply tie a string from the stake to the floppy branch to support it. Whatever works for your unique situation.

Next time you do a CFL grow you need to scrog or do some more extreme LST, those plants are tremendous for CFL. You already know that wind is important, but doesn't do much for thickening stalks after flowering has started. If you can set it up so you don't have to water in your bathroom, I would strongly suggest that you SCROG them next time. Taking care of and properly cloning plants has a big effect on stem growth indoors, since you don't have the outdoor wind to beat them up, you want your clones with thicker stems when you cut them to ensure a thick stalk in adulthood. Same deal with seedlings, keep them thick and stalky from the get go.

Kandy Kush is boooommmmbbb! It first hit the So Cal medi scene in 2008 and is straight fucking fire! I never got the chance to grow it, or even find out where it comes from, because when I was smoking it I wasn't growing. The guy that had it would never give me a cut once I started, and he was a bastard anyways, so I stopped dealing with that dude, not to mention his fucking pitbull attacked me.

I'm pretty sure GDP Seed company released it recently in seed form. I haven't looked into it at all though, could be something totally different with the same name. I remember something like that happened with a cross of mine, I wanted to call it Wet Dream but the name was already taken by another product at several dispensaries. Another local got to it before me, grr. lol.

EDIT: I'm looking into it more, I can't tell if this was an original Cali cut, or if it was just great product made by Reserva Privada, because it's using only Cali genetics, OG x Trainwreck.

And the GDP seed version is Candyland Kush, which I remember they submitted into the 2013 LA HT Cup.

Fucking bomb either way, I think I'll order some for the OD season. Already got 12 flavors outside, but I'd like 24
