Growing Skunk XL: Indoor & Outdoor
Indoor Growing
In the grow room, according to Royal Queen Seeds, Skunk XL grows only 60 to 100 cm tall and nevertheless delivers 600 to 650 g/m². Flowering takes 8 to 9 weeks and only begins when you switch the light cycle. Germinate more seeds than the number of plants you want to keep: the sex shows in pre-flowering, and you take out male plants unless you want to pollinate deliberately.

The dense canopy needs good air movement during flowering, and a carbon filter helps against the penetrating aroma. You will find the basics of growing in the Growpedia.
