About Super Skunk

Super Skunk was created by taking the already excellent Skunk #1 and backcrossing it to its Afghani parent. The result was a more indica-dominant plant with an intensified version of the skunky aroma that made its parent famous. Super Skunk flowers faster than Skunk #1 (7-8 weeks), produces more resin, and has a heavier body effect. It became a staple of coffeeshop menus in the Netherlands and was widely grown across Europe. Its ease of growth, reliable yields, and potent effect made it a go-to strain for commercial and personal growers alike.
