Island Sweet Skunk

This heady skunk is a Canadian original, grown for decades on Vancouver Island in British Columbia. With top THC levels of 19%, it’s a potent tool for treating low mood. Island Sweet Skunk smells and tastes exactly as its name implies: sweet and skunky. It also delivers aromatic hints of the tropics. This strain, which won a Canadian award at the High Times Cannabis Cup, is a sativa-dominant hybrid of original Skunk #1, a local California strain known as Sweet Skunk, and an unknown sativa. The sativa/indica ratio is 80:20. This strain is useful in relieving anxiety, depression, nausea, and pain. It can also help with nerve pain, migraines, arthritis, and GI disorders. Dry mouth is very common, but other adverse effects are limited. This strain is most popular in its home territory, British Columbia and Ontario, along with Colorado and the Pacific Northwest. It’s much harder to find elsewhere. The cerebral high packs a major mood boost, with feelings of happiness and euphoria. It tends to promote energy and creativity, but there’s also a mellow body effect that encourages relaxation.

Oreoz tantalizes the senses with a complex profile, blending earthy and gassy notes with a creamy undertone reminiscent of chocolate pudding. Its aroma is further enriched by hints of pungent diesel, spicy chocolate, and a nutty finish. Breaking apart the buds releases an earthy and gassy aroma, complemented by a citrus and herbal essence that can be detected when ground. When smoked or vaped, it unveils a creamy chocolate flavor that evolves in a slow dance towards a sweet, earthy finish.

Oreoz boasts visually striking buds, dense and lumpy in structure, cloaked in opposing bright and dark shades green, with deep amber hairs. Its beauty is further amplified by a generous coating of crystal trichomes that glisten with honey like drops of sweet resin. Shades of purple and green are visible underneath its trichome layer, along with patches of amber pistils that add to its beauty. Growing Oreoz is best done indoors, with a flowering time of 65 days.

Oreoz received high marks from those looking for a long-lasting hybrid that produces potent Sativa and Indica effects, with THC levels can reach over 30%. Overall we see this strain averaging in the 25 to 30% range, still well in range of those who prefer higher THC strains.
