Genetics & Origin of Skunk1
Skunk1 is one of the original old-school strains: Nirvana describes it as a three-way hybrid of Afghan, Mexican and Colombian genetics that goes back to the 1970s and found its way to Europe in the 1980s. The breeder calls it one of the original breeding blocks of the early days. According to Nirvana, it is more the Sativa influence that shows in the vegetative phase, while in flowering the plant looks stocky. The manufacturer gives the THC content as 15 to 20%. The seeds are feminised and photoperiod, so flowering only begins after the light cycle is switched. True hybrid vigour, high resistance to cold, pathogens and insects, and the resin production that makes the strain interesting for hashish are highlighted. For comparison, we also stock Skunk #1 by Barney's Farm.
Who Is Skunk1 For?
Skunk1 is an uncomplicated classic with a powerful smell. It suits:
- Beginners looking for a low-maintenance and robust strain
- Growers aiming for high yields after 56 to 60 days of flowering
- Outdoor gardeners in cooler locations, in the countryside or in the mountains
- Hashish fans who process resinous flowers
- Consumers with a lower tolerance who appreciate a balanced effect
If you have to grow inconspicuously, you should bear the very intense Skunk smell in mind – the strain is less suitable for that. You can find other uncomplicated strains under cannabis seeds for beginners.
Growing Skunk1: Indoor & Outdoor
Indoor Growing
Indoors, according to Nirvana, Skunk1 needs 56 to 60 days of flowering; individual phenotypes are finished after just 50 days, while the most productive ones need a week longer. On height, the breeder gives differing figures between 100 and 150 cm; in a Sea of Green with small pots of 7.5 to 10 litres, the plants stay at 60 to 80 cm. For the Sea of Green, Nirvana states 500 g/m². Topping early in the vegetative phase is recommended in order to obtain many main colas. According to the manufacturer, the strain tolerates high EC values. Because of the penetrating smell, Nirvana advises a powerful carbon filter. More on training and feeding can be found in the Growpedia.
Outdoor Growing
Outdoors, according to Nirvana, Skunk1 stays squat and grows up to 150 cm tall. Planted in spring, it is ready for harvest in mid-October; under the right conditions, the breeder states up to 750 g per plant. The strain tolerates cold, does not suffer from mildew according to the manufacturer and needs little care. Only grow where it is legal to do so.
Effect, Aroma & Flavour of Skunk1
Skunk1 is a very strong-smelling strain: Nirvana describes the smell as sharp and damp, reminiscent of skunk spray. According to the breeder, the flavour turns out sweeter than the scent – sharp, deeply earthy and damp, with soft citrus overtones. During curing of the flowers, a note of lemon and bleach emerges over an earthy base, according to Nirvana. The manufacturer does not state a lab terpene profile; it speaks in general terms of fruity, floral and earthy terpenes. Nirvana describes the effect as strong, long-lasting and mind-altering; it turns into a relaxed physical state and, according to the manufacturer, can be enjoyed during the day without tiredness. Hashish and extracts made from the strain are more potent, according to Nirvana, and more something for the evening. At 15 to 20% THC, the intensity depends on dose and tolerance.
