While Shiva Skunk cannabis seeds don’t contain the power to destroy evil, they do possess the power to produce a near-pure indica that has a reputation for vanquishing stress.
Named for the Hindu deity known as the destroyer of evil, and whom some say was also a loyal cannabis user, Shiva Skunk is the resultant cross of luminary parent strains Northern Lights No. 5 and Skunk No. 1, hence its original name of NL#5xSK#1 when it was first introduced to the world in 1987. That there’s a mouthful.
What are the effects of Shiva Skunk cannabis?
- Relaxed
- Happy
- Sleepy
With Shiva Skunk cannabis seeds, even first-time cultivators should be able to easily grow an ethereal hybrid that contains an 80:20 indica-to-sativa ratio and 20% THC content.
Shiva Skunk cannabis provides a transcendent high that leaves users happily and lazily floating in a cloud of bliss.
Despite being such an indica-heavy hybrid, Shiva Skunk hits the mind first and then the body. Its cerebral effects work to clear, sharpen, and focus the mind—allowing creative types to tap into a wellspring of innovative ideas.
While Shiva Skunk is most definitely a deeply relaxing strain, it does not have the tendency to completely overwhelm users as long as it’s used in moderation. Its acute physical effects, which do take hold early on, tend to deliver a strong body buzz and a near-psychedelic experience that can leave some users feeling super stoned almost immediately. As a physically sedating hybrid, Shiva Skunk is generally recommended for evening use, unless your plans for your morning or afternoon are just to lie around, feel good, not worry about anything, and not do much more than think outside the box.
What are the therapeutic benefits of Shiva Skunk cannabis?
You don’t have to be a cannabis aficionado to know that indicas are generally the way to go when looking for a strain that will help you get some sleep. As such, it’s of little wonder that Shiva Skunk has a solid reputation for being effective in combating insomnia.
This indica-heavy hybrid is also known to help patients suffering from stress, anxiety, and depression find relief from the mental toll brought on by the things that are weighing them down.
Furthermore, Shiva Skunk’s analgesic effects have the potential to alleviate chronic pain, glaucoma, and headaches.
What does Shiva Skunk taste like?
If you want to get a good idea of what Shiva Skunk tastes like, you need only to get a whiff of its sweet, pungent, and earthy skunky odor. While some may find its smell to be a bit overpowering, the majority find it to be alluring and love that its aroma carries over to its flavor profile with added notes of berry and menthol.
How do I grow Shiva Skunk cannabis seeds?
Growing well both indoors and out, Shiva Skunk is a low-maintenance strain that cultivators of all skill levels, including newbies, should be able to easily grow. In addition, the fact that all Growers Choice cannabis seeds are feminized means that the chances of ending up with male plants are low.
Whether it’s grown inside or outside, Shiva Skunk does best in a warm, Mediterranean-like climate. When grown indoors, it does well with soil but prefers hydroponics, and using the Screen of Green (ScrOG) method is recommended.
What do Shiva Skunk cannabis plants look like?
Shiva Skunk produces short and stout plants that don’t grow taller than 30 inches in height. Its tapered nuggets are tightly packed together, which is a common indica structural trait.
Shiva Skunk’s minty and olive-green buds are interspersed with an array of furry, vibrant orange and amber pistils that create a nice contrast with the leaves’ sugary frosting of white crystal trichomes.
When to harvest your Shiva Skunk cannabis plant
Grown indoors, this near-pure indica should begin to flower in 7-9 weeks and produce a harvest of about 450 grams per square meter. Note that using ScrOG may help to increase the size and quality of your indoor yield.
Cultivated outdoors, Shiva Skunk should provide an approximate yield of 450 grams per plant come late October.
