Growing Tips for Cotton Candy Kush

Cotton Candy Kush Auto is a difficult strain to grow and should only be taken on by intermediate-level cultivators. Cotton Candy Kush marijuana plants will thrive indoors and outdoors, but have an easier time growing indoors because of the ability to completely control the climate. If you choose to grow indoors, you will have to replicate a steady environment similar to the climate of the Mediterranean. Cotton Candy Kush cannabis seeds grow into plants with dark green buds and leaves that are covered in dusty resin. If you choose to grow outdoors, you will need to hope for consistent temperature and humidity to grow these plants to completion. Doing so will ensure that you grow healthy buds from the top of the plants to the buds closest to the soil. Having access to a greenhouse is the best way to give these plants the perfect outdoor climate without having to put up with unexpected outdoor variables. These plants grow to a medium height and can reach around 3-6 feet tall. Because the plants reach a maximum indoor and outdoor height of 6 feet, they will need ample vertical and lateral space to grow correctly. The ideal temperature for these plants is around 68-77 degrees Fahrenheit and slightly cooler at night. Humidity levels should be kept around 35-60% during the vegetative growth stage and the flowering stage, but lowering the humidity every week will help this plant grow. Growing indoors will ensure that the moderate humidity levels and moderate temperatures are constant and maintained every day that the plants are in the growing stages. The Screen of Green (ScrOG) and low-stress training (LST) methods will benefit the growth of these plants. These methods focus on plant height and reinforcing the heaviest buds so that they don’t break or bend the branches. The Cotton Candy Kush strain requires an 18-20 hour light cycle to reach the vegetative stage of growth. Altering the light cycle to a 12/12 cycle will help to induce the flowering stage of growth and get your plants to harvest.
