Description
Lemon Skunk Auto seeds
Lemon Skunk Auto seeds carry the citrus-led Skunk profile that DNA Genetics selected from two lemon-scented Skunk phenotypes, crossed with Cannabis ruderalis so that the cycle is fixed by plant age. The original Lemon Skunk was a High Times top-ten strain in 2009 and remains one of the best-known Skunk descendants.
In short: Lemon Skunk Auto is an autoflowering balanced hybrid, typically listed at 35% sativa / 35% indica / 30% ruderalis, with reported THC potential of 20-22% and a sharp lemon aroma over the pungent Skunk base.
Lemon Skunk Auto genetics and lineage
Skunk #1 (Afghani x Acapulco Gold x Colombian Gold) is the foundation of most Dutch breeding, and the Lemon Skunk selection isolated its citrus-heavy phenotypes. The ruderalis parent adds the automatic flowering trait and compact structure while, in this line, keeping most of the parent’s reported potency.
Our post on Lemon Skunk Auto genetics and citrus aroma looks at the Skunk heritage in more depth.
Lemon Skunk Auto aroma, flavour and terpene profile
The aroma is sharp lemon and citrus peel first, then the unmistakable skunky, earthy pungency of the Skunk family with a herbal edge. Terpene references most often cite limonene, myrcene and caryophyllene, with terpinolene in some reports.
Flavour follows: lemon and citrus up front, skunk and earth through the middle, and a herbal, lightly spiced finish. It is sharper and less sweet than the orange-led citrus autoflowers.
