Super Skunk Feminized — full strain description from Gnomes Seeds
Introduction
Super Skunk Feminized from Gnomes Seeds is a strain that has become a symbol of an entire era. Its name is not just a marketing slogan — it is a synonym for reliability, intense aroma and the classic skunk character that cannot be mistaken for anything else.
This line is a combination of one of the most influential strains in the history of cannabis – Skunk #1 – with the powerful, resinous Afghan component. As a result, a strain with a stable structure, predictable phenotype patterns, fast flowering and an aroma that has become one of the most recognizable scent profiles in the world was created.
For collectors, Super Skunk is a classic, a foundation, a point of reference. For some, the purest essence of skunk DNA; for others – a must-have in every collection.
Genetics: Skunk #1 x Afghan x Skunk #1
The strain was built around the double presence of Skunk #1, which gives the line distinctiveness and predictability. Skunk #1 is famous for its intense aroma, sturdy structure and the ability to produce heavy, resilient flowers. It is genetics that changed the world of collectible strains, and Super Skunk takes it one step further.
The middle part of the lineage — Afghan — is the component responsible for:
– the mass and density of the flowers,
– strong resin production,
– a deeper, earthy aromatic base,
– shortening the flowering phase,
– strengthening the overall stability of the line.
Combining these elements results in a strain with an impressive balance: intense but not chaotic; stable but full of character. It is genetics that has defended its reputation for decades.
Strain type: Indica dominance
Super Skunk is a clearly Indica-dominant strain, which is visible at every stage of structural development:
Characteristics of Indica dominance:
– compact, sturdy plant structure,
– wide, dark-green leaves,
– heavily resinous, dense flowers,
– a heavy, earthy-sweet aroma with a sharp skunk note,
– stable phenotypic differences — the strain remains predictable.
Indica dominance also gives the effect of a deeper “weight” to the aroma. These are not light, citrus notes – it is the classic skunk punch, so characteristic that many collectors can recognize this line with their eyes closed.
Flowering: 60 – 65 days
A flowering time of 60–65 days is one of the greatest advantages of this strain. It is short, even and extremely predictable.
While many classic heavy-structured strains require longer maturation, Super Skunk maintains the skunk character while shortening the time needed to achieve full, resinous flowers.
What distinguishes the flowering of Super Skunk?
– even development of flowers,
– significant flower mass already at an early stage of maturation,
– a characteristic thick trichome layer,
– minimal phenotypic fluctuations within a single line.
This is a strain stable to the core — and that is precisely why it is loved by collectors.
Aromatic profile and character
Although the technical data is clear, the true character of Super Skunk emerges only in its aroma. This is one of those strains with an unmistakable aromatic signature.
Aromatic profile of Super Skunk:
– heavy, classic skunk – strong, sharp, intense,
– earthy and “wet” notes characteristic of Afghani,
– a slightly sweet undertone in the background,
– a profile that leaves no doubt as to what you are dealing with.
It is a strain created to make an impression. It is strong, expressive and uncompromising.
Stability and phenotypes
Thanks to its thoughtful genetic construction, Super Skunk is known for minimal phenotypic variability. It is one of the strains most often recommended to collectors who want to clearly observe the influence of classic Skunk #1 in a more modern, refined version.
The line maintains repeatability, which is one of the key reasons it has earned cult status worldwide.
Summary
Super Skunk Feminized from Gnomes Seeds is an absolutely classic strain — heavy, intense, predictable and extremely stable. The combination of two Skunk #1 lines with Afghan has created a strain with a short flowering time, abundant resin production and an aroma that cannot be mistaken for any other.
For collectors, it is a must-have.
For fans of skunks — a holy grail.
For the cannabis world — one of the foundations of strain history.
