Description
Pacific Coast Canadians are well-acquainted with the Island Sweet Skunk, a strain that originated on Vancouver Island over a few decades ago. With a potential THC content of up to 19%, this Sativa-dominant strain is a popular choice for daytime use, offering mental energy and focus.
Known for its mellow and relaxing body effects, many cannabis enthusiasts appreciate Island Sweet Skunk for the cerebral energy it imparts. Despite various claims about its genetic origins, there is no clear consensus. Some suggest a cross between Northern Lights, Haze, and Grapefruit, while others propose Skunk #1 crossed with Sweet Pink Grapefruit, or even Sweet Skunk with an unknown Sativa.
In 2013, Island Sweet Skunk earned a spot on The High Times Top Ten Canadian Strains Of All Time List, attesting to its reputation as a top-notch Sativa dominant strain suitable for daytime and work-time consumption. The flavor profile is characterized by skunky undertones with sweet notes, and some users might detect hints of grapefruit or general fruity aromas.
