What is the Super Skunk Autoflower strain?
Super Skunk Autoflower is a hybrid cannabis strain with up to 20.0% THC, known for its relaxed effects and cheese and citrus flavor profile.
Super Skunk Autoflower is an indica-dominant hybrid cannabis strain that originated in Amsterdam during the 1970s and represents an enhanced autoflowering version of the legendary Super Skunk. This strain is an indica dominant hybrid containing approximately 60-80% indica genetics, created by crossbreeding Skunk #1, Afghani genetics, and ruderalis to produce the autoflowering characteristic. The strain was bestowed with the Cannabis Cup in 1990 when its photoperiod predecessor was still new to the market. Super Skunk Autoflower maintains the classic characteristics of its lineage while offering the convenience of automatic flowering regardless of light cycles. Plants typically maintain a short and compact size, usually reaching 70cm indoors and up to 100cm outdoors, making them ideal for discrete cultivation. The buds are dense, pale green with a generous coating of trichomes and large calyxes, exhibiting the signature resinous quality that made the original Super Skunk famous. The lineage traces back to the 1980s when it was among the first hybrids created using pure landrace varieties by a small circle of breeders from the Bay Area in San Francisco, with Sam The Skunkman being the most famous. The autoflowering version preserves the potency, yield, and aromatic profile of its predecessor while offering greater cultivation flexibility for both novice and experienced growers.

How do you grow Super Skunk Autoflower?
Super Skunk Autoflower is considered an excellent choice for beginner growers due to its durable and tolerant nature. Plants typically start flowering after 3-5 weeks of vegetative growth, with the flowering stage lasting 7-9 weeks, resulting in a total seed-to-harvest time of 9-12 weeks or approximately 70-80 days. The strain can be grown successfully both indoors and outdoors, thriving even in temperate climates and shorter summers. Indoor yields typically range from 140-350 grams per square meter, while outdoor plants produce 30-75 grams per plant depending on conditions. Plants benefit from 14-18 hours of light daily to maximize strength and yield. The strain is relatively easy to grow, resistant to pests, mold, and other pathogens, with symmetrical growth patterns requiring minimal maintenance. Optimal growing conditions include temperatures of 70-80°F with relative humidity declining from 60% during seedling stage to 40% during flowering. Due to the short vegetative period, training techniques like topping are not recommended as plants lack time to recover, though experienced growers may experiment with Sea of Green (SOG) or Screen of Green (SCROG) methods.
