Super Skunk Automatic Seeds

Description

Strong, sweet, and simple to grow, our Super Skunk Automatic is a favorite among beginners, and those with limited time, space, or energy. The plants can thrive outdoors even in short summers and wet weather. If you are looking for compact plants that don’t need a lot of maintenance to produce solid buds, this strain is a perfect choice.

Growth pattern of Super Skunk Automatic

Super Skunk Automatic cannabis seeds produce fast-flowering plants. They’re 80% indica, which means they’re typically compact. They’re also autoflowering, which is ideal for those with limited experience, energy, or time. The plants start to flower after a predetermined period, around three to five weeks after the seedlings appear.

Although the appearance of the flowers is not impacted by the amount of daylight the plant receives, the plants will benefit from an extended light cycle (14 to 18 hours a day) to increase strength and flowers. The flowering stage usually lasts seven to nine weeks, and the plants don’t revert to vegetative growth, even if the photoperiod is unpredictable.

Usually, Super Skunk is grown indoors under lighting. However, this Automatic variant of Super Skunk can also thrive outside in temperate climates. If the summer is cooler, the plant’s autoflowering capability means its blooming time can be synchronized with the longest days of the season. This results in the buds and resin developing in the sun, rather than in the colder, damper autumn months.

Super Skunk autoflowering plants are relatively compact, which means that techniques like topping and Supercropping aren’t suitable in this instance. Most use Automatic strains to avoid as much maintenance and interference with the plants as possible. However, those with a curious nature might want to experiment with the Sea of Green (SOG), Screen of Green (SCROG) and Lollipopping techniques. These all work well with the plant’s ‘bud on a stick’ growth pattern.

The buds are dense, well-sized and bright green, with a generous coating of trichomes and large calyxes.

Taste and smell of Super Skunk Automatic

Super Skunk Automatic’s scent often surprises people. Unlike other strains in this family, the aromas aren’t overpowering, and are reminiscent of sweet citrus. The base notes are warm and spicy like other skunk-type cannabis, which showcases the plant’s indica heritage.

The aromas become more noticeable as flowering begins, but are not as overpowering as the Regular and Feminized expressions of Super Skunk. Scents reach their peak in the final week. After curing, the lemon smell of the buds becomes less prominent. The flavors, however, are immediately noticeable.
