    Purple Candy potency is higher THC than average.

Purple Candy, also known as "Candy Purple," is a hybrid marijuana strain. Purple Candy is one of those indica-dominant crosses that’s good all around, especially for those who need strong relaxing medication. This British Columbian strain is commonly thought to be a cross of BC Sweet Tooth and Mendocino Purps, and its large flowers with rich purple coloring and amber hairs support the purple genetics. Purple Candy’s frosty buds will leave your hands sticky, much like normal candy, but instead of a sugar rush it will provide some happy sativa effects. The sensation will settle into a full body buzz that may leave you lazy and ready for bed. Sugary-sweet in scent and taste, Purple Candy will have you thinking of your favorite grape-flavored treat.

The Candy Purple I am sampling at the moment is very good. The buds are beautiful, bright green mixed with deep purple viens and patches. The tips of the buds seem to be the most purple area, generally being completely purple. However, other nugs are bright green and have no purple at all. Each and every bud is completely caked up in trichs, some incomprehensibly frosty at the tops. Overall, it is truly camera friendly and b-e-autiful bud. This shit is DANK! A few fat bong tokes and I am completely gone. A joint passed around with some friends and you are blasted off. This stuff is just really potent. The high begins in the head, and is very euphoric. The first hour of the high is very euphoric and sends good vibes throughout your body, while the high remains in your head. It then moves to your body and is a very relaxing and happy indica body stone, which is very pain relieving as well. Overall, this cannabis is fantastic, and is possibly a couch lock for many. I am a fan of indicas and to me this is a lighter indica, still being very potent, yet not as lazy and sleepy as other heavy indicas. The smell is fucking pungent and is very grapey, fruity, and kushy. The buds are very tight and sizable. I have had this shit for about a week and a half, and its BOMB! Very high quality stuff and the duration is long, about 3 hours. When you see it (if you do), GET YOU HANDS ON IT!! 9.5/10

Sweet, and relaxing. I haven't used cannabis in four years due to having anxiety attacks whenever I got high. I've recently decided to give it another go because I'm having a lot of difficulty treating insomnia, anxiety and depression in myself. I picked up Purple Candy as a way to counter insomnia. After coming down from a few hits of Pennywise in the afternoon (great strain, by the way), I vaporized some Purple Candy. Awesome results! With a nice, easy, euphoric and relaxing high, it's hard not to be happy with this strain. Definitely munchie-inducing, so either fall asleep fast or prep some snacks, cause you won't feel like exerting yourself in any way once the effects really set in. Time for me to grab a midnight snack and hit the hay.

First of all I have to mention that I rarely had in my life such well cured weed so the producer must be extremely skilled because his rendition is awesome, very snowy crystals on the buds that taste marvelous. It's smell pine and slight berries. It's taste is typical to many good kushes from the west coast, sweet and earth. After taste and smell is hashish like with a hint of berry. The buzz is mainly physical and pain killer but is also very psychedelic in the mind. Better as a sleep aid, it's also great for relaxation and meditation since it helped me appreciate a lot the sounds and music and colours around me. The day after the pain killing effect is still a little bit there but you seem to feel more motivated and positive about the future. Great strain!!!
