Island Sweet Skunk Strain Information

With a name like Island Sweet Skunk, you know you’re in for something interesting! This sativa-dominant hybrid comes from Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada. It also goes by the titles of ISS or Sweet Island Skunk. Growers Federation Seeds initially bred Island Sweet Skunk. Don’t confuse it with Sweet Skunk from Spice of Life.

The Sweet Skunk seeds were originally brought to Federation Seeds by a Vietnam veteran. Later, growers crossed them with an unknown sativa to create this dank bud. If you’re looking for a tropical getaway with a bit of skunk, this strain is your one-way ticket to paradise!
