With bragging rights to its title of being named one of the Top 10 Canadian Strains by the High Times Cannabis Cup, Island Sweet Skunk is a true Canadian gem! Hailing from the popular growing grounds of beautiful British Columbia, the strain is named in part due to its heritage of Vancouver Island! Originally created by Federation Seeds, Island Sweet Skunk (aka Sweet Island Skunk or ISS) is a sativa dominant hybrid that was made by crossing the pungent Skunk #1 and Sweet Pink Grapefruit, though other variations include other Skunk and Grapefruit phenotypes. The genetics from its parental strains come together to offer users a pungent yet nicely sweet flavour combo of diesel and fruity grapefruit citrus! With THC levels that soar as high as 25%, it delivers a happy and upbeat high in addition to calming, relaxing effects, giving an experience that is to be adored by any cannabis user!
The potency and extremely uplifting nature of Island Sweet Skunk makes it a particularly ideal strain for elevating your mood when you’re feeling down and in the gutter! A super happy and energizing strain, it is an effective tool in providing relief from fatigue, depression, chronic stress and anxiety. It can be used in the morning if you’re needing a wake and bake to start off the day, though it is also commonly used by medical users any time throughout the day to self medicate mental disorders as aforementioned, as well as physical pains or aches, including those associated with nerve pain, migraines and headaches, arthritis, gastrointestinal disorders and inflammation. Its effective pain relief is supported by the effects of its peaceful and mellow body high that puts you in a state of calming relaxation!
Island Sweet Skunk, also called Sweet Island Skunk or ISS, is a sativa dominant hybrid strain that was originally created on Vancouver Island and continues to be a Pacific Northwest favourite. It has a ratio of 80% sativa to 20% indica, with THC levels ranging anywhere from 16% to 25% potency. Its conception derives from Federation Seeds though today there are different variations of the strain. This includes a cross of the Californian Skunk #1 and Sweet Pink Grapefruit, though other phenotypes include crossing the aromatic Grapefruit with the legendary Northern Lights and Haze, or Skunk #1 with Sweet Skunk along with yet another unknown sativa. This strain also comes in a CBD variety for those requiring stronger medical benefits and lesser THC content.
Island Sweet Skunk nuggets are small and tend to be more dense, which is more typical of indicas despite its heavier sativa dominance. They are primarily light and yellowish green, similar to lime or kiwi, accented by thick brassy orange pistils and finished with tiny crystal trichomes. Its aromas are, as its name indicates, quite pungent and skunky, though it is nicely balanced by sweet and fruity citrus notes. Fans of the more gassy diesel strains will enjoy the flavours of this one for its funky blend of skunkiness, citrus grapefruit and hints of tropical fruits!
