Super Skunk
Super Skunk is the perfect strain if you want an easy, rewarding grow with abundant harvests and resinous buds. Its relaxing effects and potent skunky aroma make every toke a unique sensory experience. Ideal for unwinding after a long day!
Super Skunk is a legend in the cannabis world, born from the perfect blend of Skunk #1 and Afghani. This old-school Dutch strain has won several major awards, including Best Indica at the High Times Cannabis Cup in 1990.
Super Skunk is the result of meticulous breeding work by Sensi Seeds, who set out to create an improved, easier-to-grow version of the already famous Skunk #1. The outcome is a superlative plant in every sense: vigorous, productive and extremely easy to manage.
In terms of morphology, Super Skunk is a sturdy, medium-height plant with a pyramid shape, short internodes, large leaves and an impressive main cola. Its buds are huge, super-dense and covered in a thick layer of shiny, sticky trichomes that look like snow. The resin density of these buds makes them a real treat for extraction lovers.
Flavour and effects
The aroma of Super Skunk is unmistakable, dominated by a strong, pungent skunk smell that quickly fills the room. This earthy, spicy scent is complemented by sweet citrus notes reminiscent of freshly cut oranges and lemons. Each puff is a journey that awakens the senses and offers a full, immersive experience.
The flavour is just as impressive. On tasting, you get a blend of sweetness and acidity that bursts on the palate, followed by a lingering earthy, spicy aftertaste. This combination of flavours makes every moment memorable.
The effects are as remarkable as its aromatic profile. With a THC content of 18% to 20%, it kicks off with a cerebral high that sparks creativity and lifts the mood. With low CBD (< 1%), its effects then turn predominantly physical, perfect for unwinding after a long day. Many users describe a feeling of happiness and calm that makes it ideal for switching off.
Super Skunk terpenes
The magic of Super Skunk lies not only in its cannabinoids but also in its complex terpene profile. Caryophyllene, its dominant terpene, adds a spicy, peppery touch. Limonene brings a fresh citrus aroma associated with a cheerful mood, while humulene contributes herbal, woody, hop-like notes.
These terpenes enrich the sensory experience of Super Skunk and shape the character of its effects. Limonene gives it its fresh, upbeat side, while caryophyllene and humulene bring the earthy, spicy depth that goes with its relaxation. This terpene cocktail makes Super Skunk a strain full of nuance, perfect for lovers of the classics.
Yield and flowering time
Super Skunk stands out not only for its potency and flavour but also for its generous yield. It is an excellent choice for novice and experienced growers alike, thanks to how easy it is to grow and how well it adapts to different environments.
Indoors, it can produce between 500 and 600 grams per square metre. To reach these yields, the SOG (Sea of Green) method is ideal, helping you make the most of the light and promote even growth. Indoor flowering takes 8 to 10 weeks.
Outdoors, this strain shows its true potential. In the right conditions, Super Skunk can deliver impressive yields of 700 to 900 grams per plant. The plant is ready to harvest between late September and early October. Its hardiness makes it suitable for different climates, although it will always thrive best in regions with long, warm summers.

Is Super Skunk sativa or indica?
