Genetics
Philo Skunk / Gokunk is a Somango x Mazar hybrid. These two strains were previously crossed with Skunk. The result clearly retains all the qualities of the Skunk family while improving yields and vigor.
Cultivation of Philo Skunk
Suitable for indoor and outdoor cultivation.
It is develops vigorous but needs tutors or meshes from the third or fourth week into flowering (12/12) to support the weight of its heavy buds.
The ideal number of plants for using the SOG technique is 20-25 plants/m2, with a growth period of three weeks. On the other hand, if the SCROG method is used we recommend 9-15 plants per m2, with a growth period of three to five weeks.
Easy to grow, it is a variety that does not require special care.
Outdoors, this plant grows huge and can easily exceed two meters in height.
Taste and effects
The most outstanding and distinctive trait of this cannabis strain is undoubtedly its taste and aroma, which are sweet and fruity, typical of Skunk genetics. The flavor reminds of noble wood as the drying and curing process advances.
Its effect is relaxing, suitable to relieve tension, enjoy a good movie or listen to musi

Philosopher Seeds is a cannabis seed bank involved in breeding projects since the 90's, which entered the market in 2008 hand in hand with Alchimia Grow Shop.
We are an artisan seed bank, everything is handmade with extreme care and then supervised by reputed professionals of the sector. We produce our own seeds using our own genetics, which is a guarantee of quality.
Since the 90's, our investigation, research and development team works hard everyday to keep, breed and share our best genetics. Something that would have not been possible without the task of those cannabis pioneers who brought these excellent strains to our grow rooms.
Philosopher Seeds has established a close relationship with several cannabis breeders: Jimi from Reggae Seeds, one of their best friends and collaborators, has developed the Golo Line, while the OSG Collective has created a top-quality line of autoflowering strains and is developing new regular varieties.
Our team of collaborators also includes other breeders, as is the case of our Classic Line, reliable professionals who have helped us to keep the first strains developed by the seed bank.
Philosopher Seeds are currently developing new genetics from clones and seeds brought from the USA, also strains rich in other cannabinoids than THC and CBD. We can't wait to see the results of these projects!
Everything is ready to enjoy the Philosopher Seeds experience.
Philosopher Seeds es un banco de semillas que realiza trabajos genéticos desde los 90 y se lanzó al mercado en 2008 de la mano del Growshop Alchimia.
Somos un banco artesano donde todo el trabajo se realiza a mano, con sumo cuidado y supervisado por grandes profesionales del cannabis. La producción de semillas y las genéticas son propias, lo que hace que sean garantía de calidad.
El equipo de cultivo, desarrollo e investigación de variedades de Philosopher Seeds trabaja duro día a día conservando, manteniendo y compartiendo desde los noventa su colección genética. Un trabajo que no hubiera sido posible sin el esfuerzo de los pioneros cannábicos que acercaron estas excelentes cepas hasta nuestras salas de plantas madres.
Philosopher Seeds ha establecido una estrecha relación con diferentes criadores de cannabis: Jimi de Reggae Seeds, uno de sus grandes amigos y compañeros, ha colaborado en el desarrollo de Golo Line, así como el equipo de OSG Collective, aportando sus variedades y conocimientos en la creación de las variedades autoflorecientes y variedades regulares.
El equipo de colaboradores se completa con otros breeders, tal y como desarrollamos nuestra Classic Line, criadores de confianza que han ayudado a desarrollar las primeras variedades del banco.
También contamos con un grupo de cultivadores profesionales muy cercanos que realizan todas las pruebas necesarias con diferentes métodos y sustratos, asegurando así la estabilidad y las capacidades de adaptación de cada una de nuestras variedades.
Además de estas variedades, Philosopher Seeds está desarrollando en la actualidad nuevas genéticas procedentes de clones y selecciones propias de semillas traídas de los EEUU, así como genéticas ricas en otros cannabinoides a parte de THC y CBD. No podemos esperar a ver los resultados de estos nuevos proyectos!

Skunk #1, also referred to as the Original Skunk #1, is a cultivar created by David Watson -- also known as Sam the Skunkman -- that serves as the genetic backbone for many of today’s cannabis strains.
Sources trace its origins to 1970’s California. It’s present in countless crossbreeds, and is a descendant of an Afghani landrace strain crossed with Acapulco Gold and Colombian Gold.
Refining his crops over many years, Sam the Skunkman selected phenotypes with the best yields, early flowering times and dense, resinous buds. It was one of the first well-known indoor cannabis varieties, and won several awards, including 1st place at the inaugural High Times Cannabis Cup in 1988.
