Skunk Special, a.k.a. Red Skunk, stems from the infamous Red Skunk clones that conquered the Netherlands in the late eighties/ early nineties. Ferry started working on the Skunk Special in the nineties. The Skunk Special is the result of several S1 lines inbred with a 25% of Automatic. The current line was selected over several generations in order to retain the right and essential Skunk features, yet creating a fast flowering strain. Showing almost no variety between the individuals, this is among the most stable and homogenous strains since it was selected from a few thousand plants. This Skunk Special is a powerful and strong plant with thick, solid stems, creating massively tight buds during the flowering stage. The Skunk Special has gorgeous looking red pistils that give this plant an amazing bag appeal. Skunk Special is suitable for indoor, greenhouses and outdoors if grown in temperate and/or the warm Mediterranean climate. It is a massive yielding outdoor behemoth with amazing trichome production. The smell can be described as extremely pungent and citral with the classic cat-piss smell of the old-school Skunk. It is a very clean smoke. A Skunky and slightly sweet taste that is pleasantly acidic towards at the end. A mildly relaxing body high that causes a tingling sensation combined with a very pleasant head high.

Not a bad yield, smells really nice, fuel and berries

The start of the week and she getting 4 big tops and the rest is lower but al at the same height, Starting with pk13-14. 46 days and i think she stop with stretching

ดีงับ

Day 49 This plant looks healthier compared to the last one, but it’s still showing clear signs of stress. The leaves are drooping heavily, with some lower leaves already yellowing and fading. The overall color is a lighter green than ideal, which suggests either ongoing watering stress or nutrient uptake issues. The structure is more compact, with tighter node spacing, but the canopy lacks vigor. Growth has slowed noticeably, and the plant doesn’t have the strong, upright energy you’d expect at this stage. It feels like it’s been set back by previous stress and is now just holding on. Watering remains the most critical factor — the droop strongly hints at overwatering being the main issue. Letting the medium dry out more thoroughly before the next watering is key, and I’ll continue to be very cautious with how much water it receives at once.

Week 2 into flower & growing strong 💪 Pretty big defoliation giving room for the light to get down to the bud sites!

Day 42 The plants are showing steady growth and good health. The structure is filling out nicely, with strong branches and vibrant green leaves. Stretching has started, indicating the transition into the early flowering stage. The canopy is even and well-balanced, and new shoots are developing quickly. I’ll continue monitoring light height and nutrient levels to support smooth growth as flowering progresses. So far, everything looks on track for a healthy bloom phase ahead.

These are great smellin buds very fruity and very strong. The small one is the smallest out of the whole crop. I'm guessing another week before flush, started bring in ppms down today and lowered my base.

First off I want to give a big thank you to Zamnesia and Plagron for the awesome package right before Christmas 🎄.This may be one of the best gifts I will receive this year 😊.I will germinate these 5 seeds on New years and get the New year started off right.Well had a few things to wrap up but finally Jan 21st all 5 and added one extra Zamnesia Runtz bean so I will have a 6 plant auto run in the 5x5. Day 1 Jan/20/2025 the Runtz have sprouted :)

Two totally different bud structures on these girls both Gorilla Glue from 420 fastbuds one is also frostier then the other as well both fed exactly the same, same growth medium, same size pot, same nutes...everything. Very cool to see how different 👌

Efectivamente solo le faltan unos días para la cosecha! 😍💥💨😁 Día 79 (11/07) Riego con 750 ml sólo H20 - ph 6.2 Revisión con el microscopio 60x! Los tricomas están 80% trasparentes + 20% de turbios. La cosecha se va a demorar unos 4-5 días más Día 80 (12/07) Riego con 750 ml sólo H20 - ph 6.2 He sufrido un ataque de gusanos y tengo que eliminar tres cogollos... Los últimos días no he podido estar encima de ella tanto como me gustaría... 😞 Día 81 (13/07) Riego con 750 ml sólo H20 - ph 6.2 Vuelvo a revisar los tricomas y sigue sin estar lista.... Status tricomas: 50% turbios + 50% trasparentes Día 82 (14/07) Hace mucho calor aqui! 37 ºC Riego con 1000 ml sólo H20 - ph 6.2 💦Nutrients by Aptus Holland - www.aptus-holland.com 🌱Substrate PRO-MIX HP BACILLUS + MYCORRHIZAE - www.pthorticulture.com/en/products/pro-mix-hp-biostimulant-plus-mycorrhizae

This strain has never disappointed. Always a beautiful fade and amazing smell.

Second day of week 10, looking very nice and getting icy and smelly 😍 can’t wait for her to finish, she should give a nice yield 👍🏻Would you guys say I could defoliate her more? Removed a couple of leaves that were blocking light and some lower leaves that weren’t contributing anything.

Esta semana creció bastante la Jack orange ya tiene bien marcados los nodos y las nuevas ramas, vamos a empezar con podas de bajos y un poco de defolición, cuando las ramas ya esten un poco más grandes vamos a empezar a entrenarla con amarres y cropping!! Vamos a ir viendo las siguientes semanas como vienen!!

Added bud factor X and bud ignitor, hammerhead , 2.5 liters each 3 days , budding ist nice and getting thicker

6/11 day 55 day 56. Officially 2 months of growth. Somehow I've kept an auto flower in the vegetative stage for quite a bit of time. They are flowering and have stretched a ton. I will get actual measurements for each plant this Pheno #1 looks more indica (they all are) than the others. The pistils are shorter but more of them and the node spacing is a tighter than the others and she's stayed the shortest(least amount of stretch) and has thicker leaves(maple leaf style) her pistils started white and now have a pink tone to them and on closer inspection, some of the sugar leaves are purpling. This one could be expressing it more so because of environment. This week we've had lows and rains and cloudy weather. The other night it was in the low 40s, so in hindsight it might be environmentally expressed. Pheno #2 is the one that's been the most well rounded the whole time. Popped quick and has always been steady and not too tall and not too short. Her pistils are bright white like roots or an initial taproot. But the calyx are a deep deep purple. I believe this purple expression to be a genetic phenotypical expression rather than environment. The purple clashes with the white so beautifully. They just makes it all pop with the green. It honestly looks like a purple clover flower 😄
