Super Skunk Feminized Seeds

Description

Super Skunk Feminized lives up to its name, and is one of our most popular strains. Super chunky buds, super easy to grow, and (obviously) a super member of the skunk family! We gave the original Skunk #1 a boost to its flower growth and effects: We crossed it with a carefully chosen Afghan, then feminized the result so there’s no need to remove males.

Growth pattern of Super Skunk Feminized

Sensi Seeds bred Super Skunk Feminized cannabis seeds to be a stronger, heavier version of the world-famous Skunk #1. Adding genetics from a pure-bred resinous Afghan hash plant achieved this.

As with all feminized seeds, a major advantage is not having to identify and remove the male plants, providing an easy cultivation option for less experienced growers. However, this isn’t the only benefit that Super Skunk Feminized offers.

The seeds produce an extremely uniform crop, which only grows to average heights during the flowering stage. Sturdy and conical in appearance, the plants are usually ready at the same time; and at the same height, making the process easier.

This reliability, combined with the shorter stature, is useful if you want to use the Sea of Green (SOG) or Screen of Green (SCROG) techniques to cultivate the plants, or if you’re looking for the homogeneity of a clone plant with the simplicity of growing from seed.

Super Skunk Feminized has a relatively short flowering period of 50 days maximum. This works well for indoor growers who want to enjoy two or even three grow cycles per year. Once the flowers start growing, they increase in size very quickly. They also multiply so rapidly that progress can sometimes be observed from one day to the next. The buds are a striking bright green color, and are spiky, with large, pointy calyxes.

The skunk family was initially bred to be a good indoors option; Super Skunk Feminized is an excellent example of the success of this effort. However, that doesn’t mean that the plants have to be grown inside. In Mediterranean climates, for example, Super Skunk Feminized will thrive outdoors. It also does well in a greenhouse. When grown in these conditions, it’s not uncommon for the plants to grow to the size of small trees, especially if the summer is long and warm.

Taste and smell of Super Skunk Feminized

Typically, skunk strains tend to produce a pungent odor (hence the name). Super Skunk Feminized is rather different, with a smoother, fruitier aroma. The Afghan parentage shines through, with earthy, spicy base-notes which are particularly strong during the flowering period. This smell intensifies as the finish approaches.

Dried flowers produce a more mellow version of the original scent, which is echoed in the taste. The citrus sweetness complements the warmer earthy notes perfectly.
