Candy Runtz cannabis belongs to one of the most prominent genetic lineages in the marijuana marketplace. Sometimes referred to as “Runtz” or “Runtz OG,” the Candy Runtz strain was created by combining two popular parent strains, Zkittlez and Gelato. The well-balanced strain boasts the best parts of its Indica and Sativa genetics. Candy Runtz was recognized by Leafly as a Strain of the Year award winner. In its rosin form, Candy Runtz won seventh place for Best Rosin at the 2019 Emerald Cup, one of the biggest and most prestigious cannabis awards in the world. With an impressive resume and genetic lineage, there is little mystery surrounding why Candy Runtz is so popular. The strain has also been used to create multiple other Runtz strains, such as Obama Runtz, Pink Runtz, White Runtz, and the super-popular Banana Runtz.

More About Our Candy Runtz Seeds And How To Grow Them

Candy Runtz’s flavor and aroma profiles are absolutely amazing. Both are relatively similar with fruity, sweet, and gassy notes that are as tasty as they are enticing. The fragrance awakens the senses with notes of citrus, tropical fruits, and berries. Breaking apart the buds releases this welcoming aroma, drawing the user in for more. The flavor is super-similar to the aroma, providing a taste of sweet candy that dances across your taste buds with each inhale. There are notes of berries, grapes, and citrus fruits coupled with a creamy earthiness that lingers on the palate. The vibrance of the fruity flavors is thanks to the Zkittlez genetics, while the rich and creamy taste is due to the Gelato that makes Candy Runtz a favorite among users who enjoy a tasty herb. The best way to describe the flavors and aromas of this strain is complex, fruity, and pleasant.

Dominant Terpenes in Candy Runtz

Candy Runtz’s flavor is fruity and complex, and is created by the dominant terpenes within its genetic makeup. Its terpene profile is what gives the strain its specific flavors and scents, like berries and grapes. The science behind this strain is incredibly complex, and a better understanding of the genetics of the strain can help you choose the right flavor and aroma profiles for your tastes. Myrcene is one of the most dominant terpenes in Candy Runtz and is known as the “Mother of All Terpenes”. Caryophyllene, which has a spicy and peppery flavor, can be found in cloves, cinnamon, and black pepper.  You can find Limonene in Candy Runtz as well as the rinds of citrus fruits. Limonene gives off a citrus smell and flavor and can also help with anxiety and improve lung function when found in cannabis. The least dominant terpene in this strain is Pinene, which helps give it its earthy and pine-like flavor and aroma, both of which are overshadowed by its sweeter and fruity flavors and aromas..

Big Beautiful Buds

While Candy Runtz is known worldwide for its taste and scent, it is the effects of the strain that are a welcome surprise to users. With both Indica and Sativa backgrounds, this strain doesn’t really lean one way or the other. You can use Candy Runtz anytime, day or night. Celebrated for its balanced effects, it is a versatile strain that can be enjoyed for different occasions. The buzz you catch off this bud is enjoyable and starts in the head with a surge of euphoria. The mental boost and increased focus are perfect for creative types searching for added productivity. As the high marches on, a soothing vibe will take hold of your mind and body. The Candy Runtz strain is ideal for folks who want to unwind without feeling overly tired or sedated. The mood-boosting side of this strain is great at battling depression, stress, and anxiety. If you’re the type of cannabis lover who doesn’t have a preference between Indica and Sativa effects, then Candy Runtz is going to be a solid choice for your specific needs.

Sweet Like Candy

Candy Runtz plants produce aromatic buds that give off a fruity scent even before they are harvested. The sweet aroma and flavor of this strain make it a huge hit among new-school cannabis enthusiasts. If you are growing your cannabis indoors, you can expect to harvest 680 grams. If you grow your bud outdoors, then you can anticipate harvesting 1800 grams per plant. This strain boasts massive yields both indoors and outdoors. Its flowering time is about average, taking around 55-65 days to complete if you grow your plants indoors. If you were to plant your seeds in late Spring, you should be ready to harvest around the beginning to the middle of October. Dialing in the proper conditions indoors will help you grow hefty yields of super-potent buds. If you have the space to grow your plants outdoors, you will harvest larger yields than you will indoors.

Ideal Conditions For Growing Candy Runtz Seeds

Candy Runtz cannabis plants are tricky to grow if you don’t have any prior experience cultivating your own marijuana. These plants grow medium to tall and can reach maximum heights of around 6 feet, which means you’ll need to provide ample vertical room for these plants to grow successfully. Candy Runtz plants perform slightly better outdoors than they do indoors. Outdoor plants will grow bigger and fuller if you have access to a greenhouse grow environment where the climate can be carefully controlled. While some cultivators prefer to grow their cannabis plants in natural sunlight and fresh air, others prefer the more predictable and easy-to-manipulate indoor growing climate. 

Whether you grow indoors or outdoors, you are going to need a climate that is Mediterranean-like. Ideally, the temperature should be between 70 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit and slightly cooler at night. The relative humidity should be between 30% and 50%. If you are going to grow this strain indoors, you will need to replicate the warm and humid climate these plants are naturally used to.

If your local weather is similar to its ideal conditions, your crop will produce healthy yields of high THC buds. However, setting up your grow inside or in a greenhouse will help remove outdoor variables from the equation. The best training techniques for this strain are Sea of Green (SOG) and Screen of Green (ScrOG) training. These methods will help to reinforce the heaviest buds so that they don’t bend or break the branches they grow on. Because the buds of this plant are heavy, they require screens to keep them upright and growing until harvest.
