| This report is limited on my experience with a Half seedpack (half was from a friend).
I made it because Sensi's Early skunk (Early Pearl x Skunk #1) is a lovely tasting outdoor variety with huge grow-potentials.
The seeds were put in moist and ph tested soil. After germination they were moved on a sunny outdoor location (44N), it was late April.
This strain is very easy to grow. It simply grows bigger & bigger if the conditions are fine* this means high quality soil and lots of sunshine.
Its also a very mold resistant variety and so overall recommended for outdoor growing in areas where the late season gives high humidity.
On the other side, all animals love this Skunk hybrid! 2 plants disappeared (in one rainy night) at their very early veg. period... I'm not sure but I think they were eaten by snails or a roe... However they were food.
The other 3 that survived this attack were growing extremely fast, tall + bushy with lots of secondar branches... But Mother Nature was again not nice during a night (early June). Rainstrom + heavy wind destroyed an E-skunk. The center trunk was down but 2 side branches were still alive... I supported one branch with a stone (later with 3), and with the time, this beauty was becoming a main stalk-branch. This plant was small in relation with the other 2 healthy E-skunks that were living only a bit away. They were big, strong plants with a living mix inside* medium fat spiders tacticaly hunting small insects. A lot of relative big insects in the shadow of the leaves, also a few snails on the lover parts of the plant...
Early Skunk is a magnet for all kind of wild, but of course it depends on where you grow ; country/ecosystem/local conditions. Greenhouse, garden, balcony, guerilla...are not similar environments and will sure give differend results.
- 1 was a male...RIP
So my situation was 1 healthy, fat female plant in the perflower stage and 2 branches from the other E-skunk that also turned out to be female. The supported branch was longer and much more thick than the non-supported. I was wondering what a huge branch will mother Nature give if I support only 1 branch of the big female plant with a stone or even remove the main trunk.
This was not the only strain growing outdoor in that season and I'm also indoor active. This means that I don't care for as much outdoor yield as possible... I rather make experiments because for me, experience & variety is the quality of live.
In early august, 1 branch (from the fat lady) was supported with a big stone. This supported branch was growing & pushing the main trunk away. In late August I cut of the center at node 3 and removed 2 side branches that were growing to the north. The result with supporting was an 2.5m (over 8ft) tall branch!
Overall, its a good cross with nice skunky tasting buds and also the yield can be fantastic... but the High is not so good. It can get interesting if you smoke much in a relative short time... but nothing special. The taste & appeal is after curing lovely sweet and fine for skunk lovers. Fast tolerance build up.
