Growing Tips & Our Take

Mint Candy isn’t just about looks and potency—it’s also a pleasure to grow.

This strain thrives in both indoor and outdoor settings, but given its vigorous growth, space management is key.

Indoors, we recommend keeping the vegetative phase under three weeks to prevent excessive stretching.

Outdoors, it can shoot up to 2.3–2.5 meters (7.5–8.2 ft), so make sure it has room to flourish.

It loves a mild to warm climate, making it perfect for regions with long, sunny summers.

While it shows good resistance to pests and diseases, maintaining proper air circulation and humidity control is always a smart move.

Its open vegetative structure helps with light penetration and airflow, reducing the risk of mold or mildew.

Support stakes might be necessary during the last three weeks of flowering, as the buds grow thick and heavy.

We find this strain moderately easy to grow, making it a great choice for both experienced growers and those looking to step up their game with a premium genetic.

What impresses us most is how well-balanced this strain is—strong but smooth, productive but not overwhelming to manage.

It’s the kind of cannabis that rewards patience with top-tier results, and honestly, we can’t get enough of it.

Mint Candy Strain FAQ

Is Mint Candy sativa or indica?

Mint Candy is a balanced hybrid, meaning it carries both indica and sativa traits in harmony.
