Description
Purple Skunk Automatic is one of Sensi Seeds’ Research strains. It’s 75% indica and 25% sativa, and has impressive genetics: Hindu Kush Auto, Shiva Skunk, and Skunk #1. As the name suggests, the buds often turn a striking purple color when grown in the right conditions. The plants remain compact as they grow, which makes them suitable for smaller spaces.
Growth pattern of Purple Skunk Automatic
Purple Skunk Automatic cannabis seeds are 75% indica, 25% sativa. They were developed as part of the Sensi Seeds Research 2021 project, from three notable parent plants – Hindu Kush Auto, Skunk #1 and Shiva Skunk. These genetics contribute to the strain’s skunky aroma and flavor.
There is a level of phenotype variation with this strain, which makes it a good choice if you want some adventure while growing, as some plants may look quite different to others. It’s also important to note that this is the autoflowering variant. As such, even novice growers will find it easy to cultivate, thanks to its predictable flowering and lack of male plants. It has an average flowering period, which means that it will take about eight weeks (indoors) for the plants to reach the end of their life cycle.
As with many indica-dominant strains, Purple Skunk Automatic is compact in size. This is an advantage for those that want to grow smaller plants outside, or indoors where space is limited. The plants have thick central colas, and are typically conical or pyramidal in form, with a rounded tip. Though they’re small, they’re capable of producing super-sized amounts of flowers, both inside and outdoors.
The buds are weighty and large, with their most notable feature being their purple hue. This coloring is especially prominent when the plants are grown in colder temperatures. In fact, Purple Skunk Automatic flourishes in cooler climates, but can also be grown indoors under lights.
Purple Skunk Automatic will have average height gain during flowering and can produce an outrageous amount of weed, but may require a little extra attention.
Taste and smell of Purple Skunk Automatic
The Purple Skunk Automatic plants have a typical indica scent, which is skunky, earthy and dank, with a touch of sweetness and exotic sandalwood. The aroma grows stronger as the plants reach the end of flowering.
As for the flavor, you will notice that a lot of the same tones are present: rich earthiness and skunky sweetness. Sometimes, it’s possible to detect some spicy notes too.
