EFFECTS
This strain was actually created as a result of the demand for a cannabis strain that would produce a high without the lethargy associated with many strains. The high from Kandy Kush can last for hours, depending on your own personal tolerance, but is a high that can help you focus and think clearly rather than making you want to sink into your couch.
Kandy Kush is very popular for its medicinal properties and is claimed by those who use it for this purpose to alleviate the symptoms of migraines, anxiety, stress ADD, ADHD and gastrointestinal disorders to name just a few. This strain is also claimed by many to help with Insomnia, and with such high THC and CBD levels, it’s no surprise!
Apart from the common side-effects associated with marijuana notably dry mouth and eyes, Kandy Kush can give you a serious case of the munchies, which, depending on your diet goals or lifestyle may be a good or bad thing! Overall, the tangible benefits of Kandy Kush make it a great strain for both beginners and seasoned veterans alike. As always, however, make sure to go at your own pace and tolerance level!
