We germed 5 cotton candy beans using a moist, warm j-cloth stored in an airtight bag under a bowl in veg..a warm place for sure. After two days, they were ready to put into cups. (tonight)
This is what I could find on the Cotton Candy.. federation seeds

The flavor is extremely sweet, hitting on tropical punch and skittles with a skunky base to bring it home. The high was very heady and narcotic feeling, even sleepy at times."
An old Vancouver Island strain that originates from Afghani and Haze seed lines, recognized by the medical community for its pain relief without the drowsiness. Wonderful fragrance with an earthy flavor and long lasting high. The Cotton Candy will produce one ounce of dense bud per gallon of soil/root mass. The Cotton Candy has deep green leaves with a bushy growth structure that makes it almost as wide as it is tall. Known for its astringent qualities, the Cotton Candy has an extreme drying effect and it is recommended a glass of water or juice should be at hand while medicated.
The Cotton Candy mama was a beautiful example of an old Island strain that comes out of Afghani and Blueberry seedlines. Long and fluffy to start but thick and sweet with a pinkish hue after 8 weeks. Odiferous flowers with intense resin production, this plant has a deep green colour on upper leaf surfaces, but the underside of the leaves are light green at first, becoming almost white with crystal at maturity. Recommended by my carny friend "Resin Rene". Height 7 feet

So its.... afghani x blueberry or an afghani x nl cross x blueberry or afghani x haze..
They hooked me with the "skittles and tropical punch" kinda smoke..PLUS.. pink buds.
The mix is pretty simple.
55% Peat
45% Perilite
5% Worm Castings, myke.
Veg under 200 and some CFL's 24/0 and nutes will be earth juice grow, bloom and xcatalyst. I haven't used these before but from what I have read, they really screw with your ph..dramatic drops from 9 to 3. Not a good time to be without a functioning pen me thinks..
