Seb's take

Seb Silverback

Kandy Kush crossed back to Skunk produces a tall, single-cola grower that will clear two metres if left untrained, with a bud-to-leaf ratio that makes trimming almost restful. Strong, musky and pungent enough to warrant a carbon filter, some phenotypes lean noticeably more indica than others. Does not travel discreetly.

Where it comes from

Kandy Kush crossed back to Skunk by DNA Genetics, a regular line that pushes the balance toward sativa at 65%. The Skunk reasserts the classic structure and the pungency, while Kandy Kush lends its kush character underneath. Crossing a modern hybrid back to a foundational parent like Skunk tends to sharpen vigour, and here it produces a tall, single-cola grower with plenty of get-up.

Nose & flavour

Strong, musky and pungent, loud enough that a carbon filter stops being optional. With Skunk this close in the family, the aroma carries well beyond the tent. This is not a plant that travels discreetly.

The high

The record keeps quiet on the effect, but a sativa-dominant Skunk cross points to a lively, heady character rather than a sedating one. Expect the head to lead. Some phenotypes lean more indica than others, so the pack may hold a little variety.

Growing it

Left untrained she runs to a single big cola and can clear two metres, though she takes well to training that thickens branching and bud. Indoors she holds around 100 to 150cm, outdoors 120 to 200cm. Flowering finishes in nine to ten weeks, with yields of 500 to 600 g/m² or up to 500g per plant. The bud-to-leaf ratio makes trimming almost restful. A regular line, so expect both sexes from the seed.
