Overview
Shiva Skunk is an exceptionally vigorous hybrid that is the result of a cross between a quality Northern Lights #5 phenotype and a classic Skunk #1 hybrid. Once again the experts at Sensi Seeds have given us a masterclass in the art of quality cannabis breeding.
Shiva Skunk produces best under lights or in the greenhouse. She is an easy-growing and versatile plant that produces results for the novices as well as the more experienced cultivators. An indica-dominant hybrid that has a short flowering time for a photoperiod thanks to her parentage. Anywhere between 45-55 days after vegging growers of Sensi Skunk should see an abundance of top notch, potent buds that are ready for harvesting and curing.
Thanks to her indica characteristics her height is not towering. Between 110-120cm is the final height – perfect for discreet growers or grow rooms which lack adequate space. Don’t be fooled though, Shiva Skunk still produces plentiful crops, around 400-450g/m². Untrained outdoor grows can see potentially double this amount. The buds on Shiva Skunk are large, dense and prodigious. They have a great calyx to leaf ratio which makes manicuring a breeze. You should consider using the trimmings for making hash as this female produces masses of very sticky crystal that thickly coat the buds and the trim leaves.
As you might expect from her ancestry, Shiva Skunk can be a bit of a stinky girl. That pungent skunkiness gets everywhere and good odor control will be necessary for stealth growers. She exudes a powerful, sweet, musky aroma with hints of citrus. The smell only gets stronger towards the end of flowering. In terms of taste, Shiva Skunk is creamy on the tongue with notes of tropical wood and a rich earthiness.
The hit is as you might have expected it to be: a deep, rolling stoned feeling that is physical, narcotic, and a bit couchy. A powerful high that induces deep relaxation to both the body and mind. If you plan on leaving the house after smoking her, beware: she causes major red eye. Sensi Seeds brand Shiva Skunk as their most potent skunk to date.
