Upon its release, Skunk #1 was largely considered a strain that changed the face of cannabis culture across the world. To this day, it continues to rally votes of all weed-lovers for many reasons. Generations of intensive selection and back-crossing were necessary to obtain the very best examples of stable Skunk, and finally, culminated into this Indica-Sativa hybrid - the instant classic, Skunk #1.
Skunks are generally known for their potency, to such an extent that ‘skunk’ is popularly used as a name for powerful cannabis, whether or not they are part of the Skunk family. They are also known among growers as uniform, reliable performers, and their super/uber-stable genotype has contributed to the creation of many modern hybrids. Its energetic performance and generous yields will show a grower the true meaning of hybrid vigor. Plants grown from Skunk #1 seeds show mostly-Indica features, but with a bit more extra height than a pure Indica when flowering.
Skunk #1 is very quick to flower and grows sturdy stems and branches that match the generous amount of buds it develops. Don’t be put off by the different colors its fan leaves can show as harvest time comes closer: Skunk #1 plants focus their energy on bud formation and resin production.
Skunk #1’s beautiful calyxes and long pistils, as well as her tendency to show multi-directional bud growth are the most apparent traits of its Sativa heritage. It has a fantastic influence on potency and effect - a stunning combination of stone and high.

SENSI SEEDS PIONEERED THE CANNABIS INDUSTRY TO BECOME THE WORLD’S LARGEST SEED BANK PIONEERS OF THE CANNABIS SEED INDUSTRY
Sensi Seeds pioneered the cannabis seed industry in 1985. Today, the company is the world’s largest cannabis seedbank with over 500 varieties. These genetics and the brand name have become true classics in the cannabis community. The Dutch government chose Sensi Seeds genetics to develop the medicinal cannabis supplied by pharmacies.
Sensi Seeds aims for the normalization of cannabis use and recognition of the plant’s therapeutic and industrial benefits. This led the company to open the world’s first cannabis museum in 1985. The Hash Marihuana & Hemp Museum is now present in both Amsterdam and Barcelona and has welcomed over two million visitors.
Together with the museum, Sensi Seeds regularly hosts the Cannabis Culture Awards. This award celebrates those who have taken a stand for the acceptance of cannabis. Winners include Sir Richard Branson, and former Prime Minister of the Netherlands Dries van Agt.
Sensi Seeds opened its sister-company, HempFlax in 1993. The company developed new processing methods and purpose-built equipment for hemp cultivation. These innovations have since become the industry standard. They are now used by leading agricultural and construction equipment manufacturers, including John Deere.
HempFlax products are widely used in the textile, food, construction and body-care industries. The automotive industry has also adopted hemp, including brands like BMW, Mercedes and Bentley. Hemp is making a successful come-back and HempFlax is leading the way.
The world’s attitude towards cannabis is changing. Countries are now legalising cannabis for medicinal and recreational use. The possibilities for industrial, nutritional and pharmaceutical applications of hemp continue to surprise us. Sensi Seeds will play its part and remain at the forefront of these developments.
Sensi seeds strives for the acceptance of cannabis worldwide and believes that responsible consumption of cannabis can enrich one’s life.
With more than 30 years’ worth of experience in the field of cannabis, Sensi Seeds is fully aware of the crucial role that cannabis can play for humankind. The company is pleased to see the current increase in attention and recognition for the plant worldwide, not only as a medicine but also as a raw material.
Sensi Seeds is committed to preserving the genetic diversity and accessibility of the cannabis plant for future generations, and disseminating information and knowledge about the beneficial effects the plant can have when used appropriately.
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.
