About Super Skunk
A backcross that pushed Skunk #1 further toward its indica side.
Super Skunk was produced by crossing Skunk #1 back to Afghani material, intensifying both the aroma and the indica structure.
It is more often encountered as a parent than as a finished product — Sour Diesel being the best-known example.
