Skunk Automatic

Skunk Automatic is a sativa dominant hybrid (65% sativa/35% indica) strain with a character all of its own. This well-regarded bud boasts a THC level that ranges from 14-20% on average, with 0.6% CBD. It is sold as feminized seeds, and it remains one of the most requested cuts in its class year after year.

The Skunk Automatic high hits fast and heady — a bright, clear-eyed lift that fuels conversation, ideas and forward momentum, with only a light touch of physical relaxation underneath. A soft physical ease settles in beneath the head high, smoothing out the energy so it never turns jittery or racy. Because of these effects, Skunk Automatic is often chosen for managing chronic stress, muscle tension and mild to moderate depression, especially by those who want relief without reaching for anything heavier.

On the palate, expect skunk up front, backed by an aroma that fills the room the moment the jar opens. Each exhale leaves a skunk-tinged aftertaste that keeps you coming back for one more taste. This bud has dense grape-shaped vivid green nugs with warm amber tones, rust-colored hairs and a fine dusting of milky white trichomes.

In the garden, Skunk Automatic is a manageable grow for anyone with a harvest or two behind them, flowering in a standard 9-10 weeks and performing well indoors or outdoors. Given steady feeding and a little light training, it rewards the effort with heavy, resin-coated colas. Plants stretch to a medium height with strong side branching, equally at home in a tent or a garden bed. Its genetics run through the wider Automatic family — see Cookie Killer Automatic and Cookies Gelato Automatic for close relatives worth comparing before you buy.
