Auto Skunk

Introducing the legendary and unforgettable old-school cannabis, now available in autoflowering form! We proudly present Auto Skunk, an elegantly balanced and potent strain, known for its dependability and impressively short ripening time. Its remarkable qualities are sure to attract well-deserved attention.

Genetics and Characteristics

This feminized, autoflowering indica-dominant hybrid (75/20/5) descends from the legendary Skunk #1, a strain that has set the gold standard in the cannabis breeding industry. Its autoflowering trait, inherited from wild ruderalis, enables cultivation in regions with short summers, and in warmer climates, it allows for two or even three harvests per season. The plants, exhibiting a distinctive hybrid structure, reach heights of 80-110 cm (31.5-43 inches) and maintain respectable productivity despite their compact stature. Their dense, pyramidal buds are somewhat smaller than those found in the photoperiod variant, but the exceptional trichome production solidifies this autoflower's status as a prime candidate for extract and hash production.

Flavor and Aroma

Auto Skunk boasts a complex organoleptic palette that lends it a distinctive expressiveness and uniqueness. Its aroma, sweet yet subtly spicy and reminiscent of a medley of flowers mixed with slightly overripe fruits, begins to captivate and tantalize the senses during the pre-flowering stage. The flowering stage is marked by an intense, highly pungent musky scent. Once dried and cured, this unique blend fully blossoms, revealing elegant layers of pungent skunk, earthiness, forest herbs, caramel, and pine. This combination envelops the senses, leaving a captivating and lingering aftertaste.

Recreational and Medicinal Use

The strain is characterized by a rapid sativa onset that hits you just moments after the first inhale. Your mood will skyrocket, and the increased sociability and inspiration will make you feel relaxed, and be the soul of the party, or have a lot of hearty laughs in the company of friends. Finally, the indica dominance won't interfere with your alertness and concentration, but rather give your boundless energy a more focused direction.

With a complex terpene profile, high THC content (up to 20%), and a CBD level within 1%, this strain has pronounced therapeutic potential. It relieves inflammation and pain, including chronic pain, and is effective in combating stress, anxiety, and depression.

Cultivation

Rightly considered one of the most resilient strains, Auto Skunk adapts easily to all conditions and forgives beginners' common mistakes. However, if you want to unlock its full potential, we recommend you take care of your seedlings and provide them with an optimal environment for successful cultivation.

Outdoors, the strain prefers a sunny, moderately humid climate. Choose a sunny location with fertile, well-drained soil and a low water table. Avoid overwatering and overfeeding, and strictly follow the watering schedule, adjusting it according to weather conditions.

When growing indoors, provide adequate air circulation with fans and maintain humidity levels with a reliable dehumidifier. A carbon filter will help control odors during flowering. Maintain a lighting regime of 18/6 to 20/4 throughout the entire cycle. When considering training techniques, opt for low-stress training (LST) and Sea of Green (SoG) during flowering. When using mineral fertilizers, remember to flush the root ball 7-10 days before harvest. Use filtered and pH-ed water. This will remove any "chemical" flavor from the buds and greatly improve the quality of the final product.
