Original Skunk #1

Skunk #1 is the foundation for almost 80% of all modern cannabis hybrids. Skunk was the first true-breeding cannabis plant, meaning that it reliably produces consistent offspring with the same traits as the parents. The original genetics are Afghani bred with Acapulco Gold and Columbian Gold. Skunk #1 was the winner of the first-ever High Times Cannabis Cup held in 1988.

Original Skunk #1 flowers have a faded green color with light yellow, gold, and silver patches. Bright orange pistils curl and twist across the resinous buds. The flowers come in dense rounded clusters that despite being sticky are easy to roll.

Since the late 1970s, the term "Skunk" has been associated with potent and delicious tasting cannabis. Skunk #1 is the standard by which all other strains are held. Buds smell skunky as you would imagine but also earthy, candy-sweet and floral like jasmine. The smoke has a fruity orange and cedarwood flavor with an old school musky and cheesy aftertaste.

Growing Skunk #1 is easy for all growers regardless of experience. The plants are energetic and quick flowering. The robust stems and branches can bear high yields without added support. Skunk was created for indoor gardens but will also thrive outdoors in warm sunny weather like in California, Spain, and Portugal.
