Skunk XL

Skunk XL is a true classic, forming the genetic backbone for many modern cannabis strains. Originally bred from Colombian, Mexican, and Afghan landraces, it produces a 75% Sativa / 25% Indica hybrid that combines sweet taste and large, dense buds, refined over years of selective breeding. Royal Queen Seeds offers this timeless strain today as a feminised seed.This variety grows tall, between 1 and 1.5 metres, with a giant main cola and a structure that is easy to manage. Skunk XL stretches minimally during flowering for a Sativa, producing large buds, making it suitable for both soil and hydro setups, including Sea of Green (SOG) or Screen of Green (ScrOG) systems.Indoors, expect yields around 65–75 g per plant or 500 g/m² under a 600W light. Outdoors, it thrives in warmer climates such as Spain, Italy, or California, producing over 100 g per plant under optimal conditions. Its relatively short flowering time of 7–8 weeks allows cultivation even in northern latitudes, though full potential is best achieved in warmer regions. Extending flowering by a week can enhance flavour and potency.Skunk XL offers a balanced high: an instant cerebral head high followed by a gentle body stone. Its sweet, fruity flavour makes each smoke an enjoyable experience. Reliable, productive, and easy to grow, Skunk XL remains a favourite among commercial growers and enthusiasts alike.
