Royal Queen Seeds Skunk XL Regular is high yielding and with a giant main cola. A cross of Skunk #1 and Afghani strains and a 50/50 Indica/sativa hybrid. Easy to grow, recommended for beginners.
Overall she is quite an easy plant to maintain, with little stretching during flower for a sativa strain, combined with her big bud structure it's altogether a pleasant plant to grow. This relatively easy maintenance makes her suitable for both soil and hydro set ups, especially for SoG and SCRoG grows. In addition, the ability to grow both male and female plants should not be overlooked as it allows for the possibility of personal breeding experiments.
When grown indoors average yields are between 600 - 650gr/m2 from plants that reach a height of 60 - 100 cm. Flowering indoors takes 7 - 8 weeks for best flavour although another week gives a little more 'kick' to the effect. For outdoor cultivation plants grow to be 160 - 200 cm. tall, preferring a warmer climate such as a Mediterranean type and given the right conditions will produce over 625 - 675 gr/plant. Due to her relatively short flowering time, finishing in October, she can be grown in more northern latitudes (UK, Netherlands), however, here it will not reach its full potential compared with warmer and drier conditions.
It has a sweet, fruity scent, dank and with earthy and spicy notes. THC is at 17% with medium CBD giving a very 'stoned' effect that is quite clear and well-balanced.
