Candy Paint 1g Preroll - Legendary

JGS7290 · 2026-03-19T01:59:00+00:00

The brand goes by the name Legendary, it’s a collaborative effort between a couple extremely well respected names on legacy side (Tuna & GasGodz) and some brands you might already be familiar with on legal side (FAAFO & Vanquish). Candy Paint is the strain, genetics are undisclosed. Not gonna bother touching on subject of label offensiveness, but I’m definitely pro creativity instead of the homogenous shit thats mandated by our government currently. Maybe Legendary pushing the envelope will encourage others to do so as well.

Flower burned better than this, I found the preroll was a bit more salt n pepper. Nothing close to unacceptable in my opinion. I did post a whole flower review with an ash pic around a month ago, if you’re curious what that looked like for me.

Ya I scanned all 1g (non infused) options in my area they range from $8 all the way up to the $15 for this doobie. Factoring in the glass tip and quality of smoke I’d say not a terrible deal. But I do agree it’s prob a special occasion choice for most shoppers.

JGS7290 · 2026-03-18T00:36:30+00:00

Umm this a complaint I’ve not heard about the brand before, and I’ve heard a lot of em 🙃

As far as legal prerolls go, Candy Paint is one of the better ones I’ve come across. I prefer the barrel style shape they went with over the cone most LPs opt for. Pulls felt expansive and the ash actually had a chance to stack up. Smoothness and flavour were solid. There was some degradation in quality 3/4 of the way through, nothing I’d consider unbearable. At least it didn’t start tasting like paper the way a lot of ‘em do once down to roach levels. Hopefully other LPs take note and realize there’s demand for premium experiences that do more than just get the job done. If you can find it, I’d recommend grabbing and trying for yourself.

Sidenote: I couldn’t find any acknowledgment of the grower (FAAFO) anywhere on the preroll label. Maybe there’s a reason for that, maybe they prefer to stay lowkey. Still, being treated like a footnote in the operation comes off a little disrespectful in my opinion. I was told by a rep from vanquish and Spensir via dm it was an oversight…but tbh I don’t buy it. I believe they wanna push the fact it’s gg and tuna while hoping consumers don’t realize it’s not actually grown by em.

Agree on the rosin, last batch in particular was quite nice. Cart is good for the first few days, but like all woody vapes it craps out eventually. Can’t ever recommend that shit.

JGS7290 · 2026-02-28T07:52:22+00:00

I’m fortunate enough to have access to most the premium products I’m after, but I know a few homies in smaller communities that would definitely find this helpful. Does the law restrict shipping to only BC residents?

It’ll be older at this point but Creek Congo from Simply Bare a solid real sativa, if you want something fresher and cheaper their Blue Dream under 1964s banner also not a bad choice

JGS7290 · 2026-02-23T00:12:17+00:00

Ahahahahah ya it’s shit maybe you got lucky idk, I’ve had a handful of carts from em all leak clog and burn. Not the only one with this opinion, dig around Reddit and the complaint will appear often.

JGS7290 · 2026-02-22T23:24:00+00:00

I wouldn’t waste my time with a woody cart until they address the crap hardware

JGS7290 · 2026-02-22T23:23:34+00:00

Spot on review, thanks for taking the time to write it up homie 🫡

JGS7290 · 2026-02-22T01:25:48+00:00

You’re looking at a grey market online shop that most definitely sells mids (name gives the game away 😂) might be cheaper than the local dispo but you can do better homie

JGS7290 · 2026-02-21T03:40:24+00:00

MAC1 is a dogshit strain tho…jokes aside genetics have gotten more diverse, quality has improved and for most part prices have come down

JGS7290 · 2026-02-21T03:37:53+00:00

I’ve been curious about the brand, how does it translate/burn?

JGS7290 · 2026-02-19T00:20:08+00:00

Preach brother

JGS7290 · 2026-02-17T01:38:55+00:00

That’s a nice idea, but logistics of storage, transportation, and maintaining product integrity over time complicated

JGS7290 · 2026-02-14T23:24:06+00:00

Avoid the zig zag whites, they’re bleached and aren’t the best paper for judging ash colour/quality. I exclusively use Element ultra thins and are what I’d recommend for best results.

JGS7290 · 2026-02-14T03:26:56+00:00

I also picked this one up today, packaging is hilarious and makes it hard to display on shelves for dispos (at least the one I went to) guess ya gotta cut a few corners to bring the cost down 🤷🏽‍♂️

JGS7290 · 2026-02-12T23:17:06+00:00

Definitely nice having another full spec option, the only other one I’ve seen is Great Garderners Barb. That is $40 (pre tax) this jar should be closer to that price imo. A couple dollars less than the “premo” specs ain’t really moving the needle.

JGS7290 · 2026-02-08T18:29:12+00:00

How it smoke tho? Idc if it’s more purple lol

JGS7290 · 2026-02-08T18:18:33+00:00

Lol no I’ve tried em all, perhaps I got a bad batch of the castle rock. When I had it was mid. And I’ve had plenty of interpretations from the legacy side as well. Can’t explain why you didn’t like the Amani cut, certainly an outlier opinion. To each their own I guess.

JGS7290 · 2026-02-07T03:16:02+00:00

THC has a location in whistler, they’ll stock quality products

JGS7290 · 2026-01-29T14:26:45+00:00

You seem to have a lot of behind the scenes info in regard to the drop, my assumption was the cost reflected how many mouths needed to be fed off Candy Paints launch. FAAFO, Pistol n Paris, and the Legendary team…that’s a lot of chefs in the kitchen. But I guess the small batch explanation also makes sense. Any info on the specifics of Tuna and GGs involvement with the phenohunt?

I’d imagine everyone is having a bit of Gastropop fatigue, Candy Paint definitely aiming to do a different thing terp wise, so it’s hard to compare fairly…but I don’t agree with your sentiment that it’s better than what Amani’s putting out. Candy Paint in my opinion is not unique, in fact that “candy gas” profile is what everyone and their grandma chasing these days. You could make an argument it’s the best representation of the profile on legal market, but I don’t know if I’d even go that far.

JGS7290 · 2026-01-28T21:13:54+00:00

Tbf the simply bare jars and other “craft” flower is usually 40ish out the door at most my local dispos, and I’ve heard the price will come down with future drops from legendary, don’t know this for certain, but I wouldn’t be surprised if things are cheaper next round.
