Grease Skunky
Also known as: Grease Skunk
Grease Skunky Strain Overview
Grease Skunky is a hybrid cannabis strain that emerged in the early 2010s from the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. The strain was developed by crossing two notable parent strains to create a unique genetic profile that combines the pungent aroma of classic skunk varieties with the resinous, sticky characteristics of modern hybrids. While its exact breeding history isn't fully documented in public records, it gained popularity among connoisseurs for its distinctive terpene profile and balanced effects.
The strain is characterized by dense, olive-green buds that are heavily coated in trichomes, giving them a greasy, sticky texture that inspired the 'Grease' portion of its name. The nugs often display vibrant orange pistils and may have purple hues when grown in cooler temperatures. Grease Skunky plants typically produce medium to large yields with a flowering time of 8-10 weeks when grown indoors. The strain's most notable feature is its powerful aroma that combines skunky, fuel-like notes with undertones of earth and citrus.
Grease Skunky has maintained a cult following rather than achieving widespread commercial distribution, making it somewhat rare in mainstream dispensaries. Its genetics represent a bridge between older landrace-influenced strains and modern hybrid breeding techniques. The strain is particularly valued by experienced users who appreciate complex terpene profiles and balanced hybrid effects that don't lean too heavily toward either indica or sativa dominance.

Grease Skunky Strain Growing Information
Grease Skunky is considered a moderate-difficulty strain to cultivate, making it better suited for growers with some experience. Indoor flowering time typically ranges from 8-10 weeks, with outdoor harvests occurring in late September to early October in the Northern Hemisphere. The plants tend to be medium in height, reaching 3-5 feet indoors and 5-7 feet outdoors. Yields are generally moderate to high, with indoor growers reporting 1.5-2 ounces per square foot and outdoor growers achieving 16-20 ounces per plant under optimal conditions.
The strain performs well in both indoor and outdoor environments but prefers a controlled indoor setting where temperature and humidity can be carefully managed. Grease Skunky requires good air circulation to prevent mold due to its dense bud structure. It responds well to training techniques like topping and low-stress training to maximize yields. The plants have moderate nutrient requirements and are somewhat resistant to common pests, though they can be susceptible to powdery mildew in humid conditions. Growers should monitor humidity levels closely during the final weeks of flowering.
