Flavors
Electric Kool Aid tastes very much like the drink it is named after. It has notes of grape and berry with the slight sweetness of ripe fruit. Meanwhile, savoring the bud reveals its floral undertones of lavender. On the exhale, it leaves a hash-flavored aftertaste of wet soil.

Growing
Any home grower would find Electric Kool Aid to be a fine addition to their garden. It is a beginner’s strain that is quite easy to grow in spite of its lanky genes. For example, while it prefers warmer temperatures, it can still handle the colder conditions of the north though it will stretch its flowering period to accommodate the lack of sunlight.
Like other Sativa-dominant strains, Electric Kool Aid can grow quite tall. As such, it will need to be topped early as it can grow out of hand especially in a growing area with low vertical space. Bending it will also improve light circulation around the lower nodes.
To bring out the strain’s flavors, aspiring growers may opt to cultivate the plant in soil. One may also opt to supplement it with nutrient-rich organic plant food. Meanwhile, people looking to hasten its flowering period as well as produce buds that are less exposed to chemicals like pesticides can turn to a soilless medium like soil.
