Northern Skunk – Smoke Report.
These finished a little while back but I wanted to wait until a few more experienced smokers had sampled the results in addition to myself.
I had a chance to give away some of the bud to friends over the holidays and everyone of them said it was the best looking stuff they’d seen – some ever some in recent memory.
Two phenotypes: One a little more sativa, one more indica; both excellent.
More Indica cola @ harvest:
More Sativa Plant @ Harvest:
Here is a bud from the more indica plant:
And a bud from the more Sativa plant:
The Smell: The indica plant smells strongly of skunk, mostly sweet skunk. When you break up buds from the indica plant the smell becomes VERY pungent of skunky sweet skunkiness.
The more sativa plant really has no skunky smell but is VERY sweet. Some people have told me blueberry, but there are no blueberry genes in this cross – although I do agree is does smell like blueberry. Mostly just sweet, not quite as pungent though as the more indica plant.
The Smoke: The smoke is lighter than you’d think and VERY smooth with a fair amount of lung expansion – the ash pure white.
The smoothness of the smoke throws people off, and they think maybe they need or can handle more.
I toked with all-day smokers who needed to stop after 3 hits from their bong, personally I usually find the rest of my joints on the floor of my house somewhere 2 hours after taking just a couple hits – so that gives you an idea of the potency.
The High: The high is very fast and a really great mix of sativa and indica. It’s somewhat adaptive too, I can smoke and then go lift weights or jog and it’s awesome, or I can smoke and watch a movie and eat and it’s also awesome. It’s relaxing to the body, with noticeable pain relief properties to the phenotype I refer to as more indica, the more sativa plant possesses this quality as well but is a little more of an energetic “up” feeling. Racy but not paranoid – it really puts a smile on your face. Both plants are of equal high, A is just a little better if you’re not going out. A 50/50 mix of the two is my current favorite.
The high lasts longer than almost any other I’ve tried – you’re GOOD for at least 2 hours, usually I’m GOOD for 30 minutes and then I start thinking maybe I need to roll a joint – not with this.
The Potency: I know there are people on here who smoke NYCSD or AK47 everyday, so remember we have no standard by which to judge this by.
For me it’s almost too much, if the high wasn’t as relaxed and mellow as it is I think I would have to smoke some shittier pot to build my tolerance even more cause this shit is STRONG, although I’ve been smoking some White Widow for the last 6 weeks of my grow this stuff still levels me.
The kieff is so strong I tried it last Sunday night – around 9pm - and got too high. I played Battlefied 2 for about 6 hours and ate everything in my house and shit was EVERYWHERE. Every dish I owned was dirty, the floor covered in wrappers and cans and ashes. Damn, I’m going to wait on smoking the keiff again for now.
The Verdict: I REALLY LUCKED OUT and got two great plants from just 6 seeds. I have some new genetics coming from a couple breeders, so I’m excited to see how it compares. All in all, honestly 10/10 across the board. Easy. Honestly EVERYONE who has tried this, and I gave samples to at least 6 or 7 heavy-smoking friends, say it’s excellent smoke, and it really is. I was really leery of letting this plant flower out to 76 days, but if I could do it again I would take it on the exact same day – day 76. The smoke is a near perfect balance, at about 25% clear, 60% cloudy, 15% deep-amber.
