Just by pronouncing the word “Skunk”, all cannabis consumers and connoisseurs will know what it is: a good “weed”. (grass, marijuana, “weed”, cannabis flowers…). Indeed, the Skunk hemp type has a reputation that is no longer to be made. This variety is known worldwide, as much for the power of its taste as for its atypical effects. Such a success cannot remain so modest, it is used in many crosses of hemp lines. Thus, it confers its much appreciated properties in different herb variations and, thus, effects. It is impossible to know exactly how many hybrids have been produced from Skunk. If some are more or less inescapable (Super Skunk, White Skunk, Skunk Kush,
Hawaiian Skunk
…), others, like the Hawaiian Skunk CBD were born more recently.
And for good reason, the market for cannabidiol (cannabinoids) or CBD is experiencing a spectacular explosion. This molecule is completely legal in France and in many European countries, despite its origin. It became obvious to be able to offer a variety of marijuana such as Hawaiian Skunk in legal version. The CBD version of Hawaiian Skunk was then born. It quickly becomes a product of choice in the world of CBD!
The Skunk
Its origins
Skunk (translation: skunk) is a very famous variety of herb. Developed in the 1970s in the United States, it remains to date, ranked among the best. It comes from a selection of 3 cannabic plants originating respectively from Afghanistan (indica), Colombia (sativa) and Mexico (sativa). It is thus with dominant sativa (75%). 
His culture
Its robust phenotype and its short and abundant flowering makes its culture rather easy. It allows to obtain a very good resin yield both indoors and outdoors. In addition, it was the first marijuana hybrid to be stable from one progeny to the next. This very interesting property in culture allowed him to be at the origin of numerous new varieties as the Orange Bud, the Hawaiian Skunk, the Skunk Kush or the Super Skunk. Thanks to their genetics, these herbs have become a safe bet!
Its effects
Its super reputation is a direct result of :
- its powerful and positive cerebral effect
- the lasting muscular relaxation it provides
- its earthy and sweet taste at the same time
- its tasty lemon scent
This variety of cannabis has a rather average rate of THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) (17%) if one compares it with the content of other more recent varieties. However, it is more than enough to produce psychotropic effects that are harmful to health. In France, this variety and its derivatives are registered on the list of the narcotics and are thus prohibited.
Hawaiian Skunk
Hawaiian Skunk with indica genetics (62,5%) comes from the crossing of plants of Hawaiian indica (native species of Hawaii obtained from regular seeds) with Skunk (type of American cannabis). Its dominant indica, confers on Hawaiian Skunk:
- its relaxing effects
- a crop with a good yield
The crossing of the 2 varieties of weed selected to obtain this hybrid comes to balance subtly and harmoniously their respective organoleptic and cerebral properties to give to Hawaiian Skunk, its so original characteristics.
The culture of the Hawaiian Skunk
This variety of marijuana is a plant of average size, robust and with rather long bloom (approximately 11 weeks in inside). Its flowers with large orange-red pistils grow in clusters around the internodes. They are particularly dense and filled with trichomes (resin glands where cannabinoids such as THC and CBD as well as terpenes are located). These phenotypic characteristics are typically those of an indica. They therefore provide a very good return. It will prefer an indoor type of culture.
To date there is not yet feminized seeds of this variety, only
regular seeds
can be cultivated.
The aromatic profile of the Hawaiian Skunk
It has very subtle and pronounced flavors at the same time. We find the fruity tropical and slightly sweetened taste of the banana of its relative the Hawaiian indica, delicately reinforced by the spicy depth and the earthy roundness of the Skunk from which it also results. Its aroma is significantly lemony. This very convoluted taste and smell mix reinforces the effects of the Hawaiian Skunk.
The effects of Hawaiian Skunk
As far as its effects are concerned, again, this herb is very representative of the varieties from which it is descended. In spite of a very low rate in CBD (0,2%) and a rather low content of THC and variable from one plant to another (11 to 17%), the ” cerebral high ” of the Skunk is well present. However, the “body stone” of Hawaiian indica is not missing either. It is a true combination of the 2 parents. Most of its consumers’ reviews compare it to “a great pain killer that makes you happy!”
The legality of Hawaiian Skunk
As mentioned above for Skunk, the classic Hawaiian Skunk in which the psychoactive molecule tetrahydrocannabinol is present, is illegal. To be marketed, the Hawaiian Skunk CBD must therefore meet the legislative requirements of France (or the country concerned) which tolerate a maximum threshold of this substance to 0.2% in the plant itself. A cannabic product containing CBD from this weed will be legal, if and only if this rule is respected.
Hawaiian Skunk CBD
This herb differs very little from its classic version. Naturally fatty, it allows to obtain yields as good in quantity as in quality.
Its smell is very strongly fruity, slightly acidic and with floral and sweet notes. Its spicy taste is tenacious and deep. Its flavors are very appreciated by the amateurs of product with powerful and durable CBD in mouth.
The Hawaiian Skunk CBD effect
We find the same heady and cheerful effects in the CBD version of the Hawaiian Skunk as in the THC version. While they are known to lift the spirits and allow the consumer’s creative spirit to awaken, the intense relaxing properties that accompany them are ideal for those suffering from insomnia, headaches, stress and certain minor aches.
The therapeutic benefits of Hawaiian Skunk CBD are widely reported. However, the advice of a doctor before use can be very useful. It thus minimizes the extremely rare risks of drug antagonism or allergy.

To conclude…

Moreover, it meets the organoleptic and sensory expectations of the amateurs of the original version without inducing the deleterious effects that causes the active substance of tetrahydrocannabinol.
