Local Skunk
Also known as: Local Skunk F3
Local Skunk Strain Overview
Local Skunk is an evenly balanced hybrid strain (50% indica/50% sativa) developed by Dominion Seed Company as part of a meticulous breeding program combining classic cannabis genetics. The strain was created by crossing Original Diesel with multiple hash plant varieties and skunk genetics, specifically Cuddlefish Hashplant, Sour Diesel IBL, Skelly Hashplant, and SSSC Skunk #1. This complex lineage was carefully chosen to amplify desirable traits such as resin production, aroma intensity, and yield potential. Local Skunk represents a modern interpretation of classic skunk genetics, offering nostalgic flavors that harken back to the legendary cannabis varieties of the 1970s and 1980s while incorporating contemporary breeding techniques for improved consistency and potency.
The strain produces strong, structured plants with vertical branching and a stretch ratio of 2:1 to 2.5:1 during flowering. The buds are characterized by long, fluffy, conical forest green nugs with thin dark orange hairs and chunky white trichomes, forming large chunky colas with golf ball-sized and larger buds down the branches. Local Skunk exhibits excellent resistance to pests (9/10) and mildew (8/10), making it a reliable choice for both novice and experienced cultivators. The strain's high bract-to-leaf ratio makes trimming relatively easy, while its robust structure allows for both single cola and multi-headed bush growing styles.
