These hybrids (35% sativa, 65% indica) can complete several grow cycles annually. Skunk #1 Automatic seeds reliably and quickly produce flowers with minimal effort.
We realize expectations are high when a legend like Skunk #1 is redeveloped as an autoflowering version. Our aim was clear from the outset: the auto descendant had to live up to its famous mother, and further simplify the already easy cultivation. If we look at the positive feedback from the community, we think we’ve achieved that.
A defining feature of Skunk #1 Automatic, which is based on 35% sativa and 65% indica genes, is the ease with which it can be grown. With this feminized auto variant, the duration of the light period doesn’t matter, because flowering begins automatically.
The plants start to produce large, resinous buds approximately three weeks after germination. The flowering phase lasts 45 to 55 days; the plants grow less vigorously than regular Skunk #1, and stay nice and compact. Once mature, the large and dense buds are astonishing to behold. For an auto strain, there is a very high proportion of buds to leaves.
If these automatic seeds germinate in the spring, an complete grow cycle in June is entirely possible. Autoflowering cannabis strains allow for several cycles per year. Skunk #1 Auto also thrives excellently indoors under artificial light.
Cultivation methods such as Sea of Green (SOG) or Lollipopping often result in even more flowers.
The raw flavor of Ruderalis, which is found in every autoflowering cannabis strain, is not perceptible. It tastes earthily sweet but also a little sharp - typically ‘skunky’ then.
