What is the Cherry Skunk strain?
Cherry Skunk is a indica cannabis strain with up to 24.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and berry and cherry flavor profile.
Cherry Skunk is an indica-dominant hybrid strain created through crossing Skunk Dawg and Poppa Cherry. Though there appears to be some variation in reported lineage with different sources, the most consistent information indicates this genetic background. With THC levels ranging from 14% to 18% and up to 24% THC with 2% CBD in some phenotypes, Cherry Skunk offers a versatile experience suitable for both novice and experienced users. The strain is distinguished by its unique flavor profile that tastes exactly like its name suggests – sweet cherries and spicy skunk, while the aroma brings in earthy spices and herbs to complement the berry skunk overtone. Cherry Skunk buds feature round, super hairy dusty green nugs with fuzzy orange hairs and a thick blanket of tiny amber colored crystal trichomes. Despite its indica-dominant genetics, its psychedelic high is associated with an uplifting cerebral buzz that provides balanced effects between mental stimulation and physical relaxation. There is also a CBD-dominant version called Cherry Skunk CBD that is bred from Cherry Kush and Skunk #1 specifically for medical applications.
