South India x Skunk
Also known as: South Indian x Skunk #1, Indian Skunk
South India x Skunk Strain Overview
South India x Skunk is a mostly sativa hybrid strain developed by High Quality Seeds, representing a stabilized F1 cross between South Indian Kerala landrace genetics and Skunk #1. This strain combines the potent sativa characteristics of traditional Indian cannabis with the reliable genetics and improved growing traits of the legendary Skunk #1. The South Indian Kerala parent was originally bred by Sacred Seeds in the late 1970s and is considered one of the finest sativa strains found anywhere in the world. The crossing with Skunk No.1 was specifically done to achieve earlier maturation, improved yields, and shorter flowering times while maintaining the distinctive taste and aromatic qualities of Indian cannabis.
The strain exhibits classic sativa-dominant characteristics with a genetic makeup of approximately 87.5% sativa and 12.5% indica. Plants produce long, slim female structures typical of sativa varieties, reaching medium height of around 2 meters when grown outdoors. The strain maintains the appearance reminiscent of Skunk #1 but with more pronounced sativa features. Users report that it has "the look of skunk with the taste and smells of India," combining the reliability and uniformity of Western breeding with traditional Indian cannabis characteristics. This hybrid represents an important bridge between landrace genetics and modern cannabis breeding, offering cultivators access to traditional South Indian genetics in a more manageable and predictable package.
