Swazi x Skunk
Also known as: Swazi Skunk, Swazi Safari
Swazi x Skunk Strain Overview
Swazi x Skunk is a predominantly sativa strain created by crossing a pure Swazi landrace sativa from the Pigs Peak Highland region of Eswatini (formerly Swaziland) with the classic Skunk #1. This strain represents an F1 hybrid that maintains 87.5% sativa genetics while incorporating the stability and yield improvements of the Skunk lineage. The Swazi parent originates from South Africa's highland regions and has been exclusively inbred without hybridization until this cross. The strain was developed by multiple seed companies including African Seeds and Seedsman to create a stabilized version of the pure African genetics while reducing flowering time and improving indoor cultivation characteristics.
Swazi x Skunk exhibits classic sativa structure with extensive branching, large slim leaves, and compact sticky buds covered in resin glands. Plants grown indoors typically reach 4-6 feet in height, while outdoor specimens can achieve heights of 10-14 feet under optimal conditions. The buds are characterized by their long, dense formation with visible trichomes and a distinctive sweet pine aroma. This strain preserves the energetic, clear-headed effects of its African heritage while benefiting from the enhanced potency and cultivation stability provided by the Skunk genetics.

Swazi x Skunk Strain Growing Information
Swazi x Skunk has a flowering period of 8-11 weeks indoors and 8-12 weeks outdoors, with harvest typically occurring in late October. Indoor yields range from 350-500g per square meter under proper conditions, while outdoor plants can produce 20-30 oz (600-1000g) per plant when grown to full size. The strain prefers warm, equatorial conditions with temperatures between 70-90°F and requires at least 5 months frost-free for optimal outdoor growth. For indoor cultivation, hydroponic systems with ebb and flow are recommended for best results. Plants are resilient and adaptable but benefit from proper support due to their height and heavy colas. The strain shows good resistance to environmental stress and is considered moderately easy to grow, though it requires patience due to the longer flowering period typical of sativa genetics.
