Auto Super Skunk
Also known as: Super Skunk Autoflower, Super Skunk Auto
Overview
Auto Super Skunk is an autoflowering version of the legendary Super Skunk strain, created by crossing the classic Super Skunk with ruderalis genetics to enable automatic flowering. This strain is the cross between the legendary Super Skunk (Skunk #1 x Afghanistan) and a high quality Ruderalis strain that contributes with the auto gene without altering the original characteristics in terms of flavour and effect. The strain traces its roots back to the bustling cannabis hub of Amsterdam in the 1970s. Initially bred with Afghan genetics, it also incorporates hints of Colombian and Acapulco strains. This diverse genetic background has been further enhanced through careful breeding with Ruderalis genetics. As an indica-dominant hybrid with approximately 80% indica and 20% sativa genetics, Auto Super Skunk maintains the potent characteristics of its parent strain while offering the convenience of autoflowering cultivation. This variety develops plants about 70-100cm tall, well-branched and with a strong and woody structure. The strain is renowned for its distinctive skunky aroma, dense resinous buds, and robust effects that have made it a favorite among both recreational and medical users since its development in the 1990s.
