Sweet Island Skunk is an inbred line that is now a long-time native to Vancouver Island. Sweet Island Skunk is 70% sativa and is a hardy strain, as it needs to be to thrive in the Vancouver rain forest. Suitable for indoor and outdoor cultivation.

Indoors, these plants are ready to harvest just eight weeks after flowering begins. At first the long buds look rather sparse but at about week 5 they really start to fatten up, producing a lot of calyxes covered in very sticky 'white' resin. Outdoor growers will be harvesting in late September in northern latitudes, or in late March in the southern hemisphere.

Sweet Island Skunk is not called 'sweet' for nothing as its flavour is very sweet and sticky indeed. Despite being 70% sativa the effect is that of an indica stone and is said to possess therapeutic qualities. In fact Sweet Island Skunk was winner of the 2012 Treating Yourself Medical Marijuana Cup.
