Pretty Stinky
Also known as: Pretty Stinky OG
Pretty Stinky Strain Overview
Pretty Stinky is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain known for its pungent aroma and potent effects. The strain's exact origins are somewhat obscure, but it is believed to have emerged from the West Coast cannabis scene in the early 2010s, likely as a phenotype selection from OG Kush genetics. Breeders sought to develop a strain with both visual appeal and the classic 'skunky' fragrance that gives the variety its distinctive name.
The strain's appearance is characterized by dense, resinous buds that display a vibrant green coloration with occasional purple hues, particularly when exposed to cooler temperatures during cultivation. The flowers are typically covered in a thick layer of trichomes, giving them a frosty appearance, and feature bright orange pistils. As the name suggests, Pretty Stinky produces a powerful odor that combines earthy, skunky notes with subtle undertones of diesel and pine, making it a strain that requires proper odor control during cultivation and storage.
Pretty Stinky has gained popularity among both recreational and medicinal users for its balanced yet potent effects. The strain is considered moderately difficult to grow, requiring attention to environmental factors to achieve optimal results. While not as widely documented as some mainstream varieties, Pretty Stinky has developed a dedicated following among connoisseurs who appreciate its classic indica characteristics and strong aromatic profile.
