Skunk XL in detail
Origin & classification

Cannabinoids, flowering & appearance
Skunk XL is more likely to appeal to people who place greater emphasis on calm, depth and body-focused qualities in a strain. Those who enjoy classic, direct and less polished strain profiles may find this direction more appealing than purely trend-driven strains.
Further classification

As a result, Skunk XL feels less like a purely exotic profile and more like a strain with clear practical appeal. Aromatically, it moves between skunky notes. It is primarily described as body-focused. Its descent from Skunk x Skunk #1 makes Skunk XL’s genetic direction easy to understand. Afghanistan is also named as an additional genetic influence. This keeps Skunk XL aromatically closer to classic strain profiles than to modern candy or dessert lines. That places Skunk XL closer to strains described through calm, body-focused qualities and a fuller character. Skunk-related lines give Skunk XL a more direct, spicier and more old-school character.
