A delicious hybrid with medium THC levels averaging 18% and heavily Sativa-dominant genetics, Purple Skunk is both visually attractive to growers and accessible to novice consumers. This cultivar came into being as a phenotype of the legendary strain Skunk 1. Growers should anticipate tall plants that require LST, pruning, and topping if they really want to see them thrive. They are moderately challenging to grow, have a short flowering cycle of around 60 days, and produce impressive yields that can range up to 500g/m² if environmental conditions are just right. Flavor-wise, Purple Skunk lives up to its name, with a skunk-heavy profile held together by sweetness and freshly picked berries. The high has a slow buildup and hits in waves, mellow at first and increasingly intense. This strain is perfect for daytime use as it causes a burst of focus and creativity, while causing euphoric thoughts. The accompanying relaxation is pleasant but not overly sedative. Medical patients often choose Purple Skunk, due to its accessible potency, for treating depression, arthritis, and chronic stress.
