Skunk marijuana strains are an impressive sativa/indica blend that is bred for indoor growing conditions. The genetics of this amazing strain create huge buds and a high yield for each and every plant. The idea that marijuana smells like a skunk came from this very potent smelling cannabis strain. There are many variations on the Skunk strain and because of its popularity it has become one of the most crossbred strains of all time. There is a long line of high quality Skunk strains including Lemon Skunk, Skunk Haze, Super Skunk, Shiva Skunk, Skunk Passion, and the list goes on and on. Regardless of which Skunk you try, you're going to get a high quality indica/sativa mix that thrives in an indoor growing environment.

One of the oldest variations on the Skunk strain is the classic Skunk #1. This strain was first bred in the late 1970's and has since become a staple of all seed shops, festivals, coffee shops, and medical marijuana clinics. This strain was crossbred with Afghani and Colombian Gold with a powerful content of 75% Sativa, 25% Indica. Out of all of the Skunk strains, Skunk #1 has won the most awards and prestige from the Cannabis Cup, High Times Magazine, and international harvest festivals. The plants produce long, fat buds that have dramatic shades of light green and bright yellow. The buds have a very high THC level, averaging around 15 %. If you are looking for a classic Skunk strain, then go with the original Skunk #1.

The Skunk strain has way more types of weed than any of its competitors. Growers and users both love the attributes of this strain and are constantly trying to update and add to the Skunk legacy. Super Skunk was bred in the 1990's with the Skunk lover specifically in mind. This strain is known for its potent skunk smell and taste. This is a very easy weed to grow and it's a good choice for cultivation beginners. The plant produces short, fat buds which are colored pale green and covered in bright orange hairs. When smoking this strain you will experience all the positive effects of the original Skunk, with the bonus of a relaxing body high. Super Skunk is a great choice for any lover of Skunk strains of marijuana.

A new Skunk strain that is quickly gaining popularity is Shiva Skunk. This strain was bred from Skunk #1, and Northern Lights. These two powerful strains go together perfectly, with a taste and high that are second to none. When it comes to growing, this strain does all the work for you and requires very little manicuring or special treatment. When you combine two juggernauts like Skunk and Northern Lights, the effects become hallucinogenic. You're going to want to have a high tolerance and a designated driver if you smoke some Shiva Skunk.

Whichever skunk you choose to smoke or grow, you're going to have a pleasant experience. This is a weed lovers strain, designed with the pothead in mind. If you don't have anything important to do, I would start with the Shiva Skunk.
