Super Skunk Feminized is a cannabis strain that has won numerous awards and accolades since its introduction in the 1990s. Super Skunk is the result of crossing Skunk #1 with an Afghani from the "hash plant" family. The blend of 80 % Indica and 20 % Sativa provides a relaxing effect complemented by a stimulating high. This feminized variant of Super Skunk simplifies cultivation, making it a good option for beginners.
The growth of Super Skunk
As with all feminized cannabis seeds, a key benefit is that the male plants do not need to be identified and removed. However, this is not the only advantage that Super Skunk Feminized offers.
The seeds ensure an extremely uniform plant that grows to an average height during the flowering phase. The plants are strong and conical and can usually be harvested at the same time and at the same height, which makes work easier for growers.
Super Skunk Feminized has a relatively short flowering time of a maximum of 50 days. It is well suited for indoor cultivation and when 2 or even 3 harvests per year are desired. When the flowers grow, they become larger very quickly. They also multiply so quickly that you can see a change from one day to the next. The buds have a distinctive light green color, are pointed and have large, narrow calyxes.
Growers can expect large yields, even if they have little experience.
The Skunk family was originally grown as a good indoor option; Super Skunk Feminized is an excellent example of the success of these efforts. However, this does not mean that the plants have to be grown indoors. In Mediterranean climates, Super Skunk Feminized also thrives outdoors. It is also suitable for greenhouses. Under these conditions, it is not uncommon for the plants to grow as tall as small trees, especially if the summer is long and warm.
The effect of Super Skunk
And the effect of Super Skunk Feminized? Most consumers describe it as a mixture of stimulating, satisfaction-inducing and relaxing. The euphoric effect is triggered by the sativa component, while the dominant indica genetics provide a feeling of serenity. Some users appreciate this cannabis strain for its ability to counteract stress and tension.
Smell and taste of Super Skunk
As a rule, skunk strains exude a strong odor (hence the name). The Super Skunk Feminized has a softer, fruitier aroma. The Afghani heritage comes through with earthy, spicy base notes that are particularly strong during the flowering period. Indoors, this smell intensifies before harvest.
When the buds are cured, they exude a softer version of the original scent, which is also reflected in the taste. The sweet citrus note perfectly complements the warmer earthy notes.
