Red Super Skunk Auto by Blim Burn Seeds
Jack Herer × Skunk × Ruderalis
Red Super Skunk Auto is an autoflowering indica cultivar from Blim Burn Seeds, developed by crossing European genetics like Jack Herer and Skunk with ruderalis. It is recognized for its compact growth, rapid lifecycle, and a distinctive aroma profile that blends classic skunky notes with hints of spice and pine.
Appearance
Red Super Skunk Auto typically grows into a medium-short plant, reaching heights of 70 to 110 cm indoors, with a sturdy central cola and several productive lateral branches. Its indica-dominant genetics result in broad leaflets and tight internode spacing, leading to dense bud stacking. Some phenotypes may display red or burgundy hues in their pistils and occasionally on bracts, particularly under cooler nighttime temperatures, adding visual appeal.
Buds are characterized by firm, conic clusters and significant trichome coverage, frosting the sugar leaves and calyxes. The finished product often presents with lime and forest green colors, interspersed with red-orange hairs and a thick white resin coating.
Aroma & Flavor
The aroma of Red Super Skunk Auto is a complex blend, starting with a classic sweet and sulfurous skunky funk. This is complemented by coniferous notes of pine and a peppery spice, inherited from its Jack Herer lineage. As the buds cure, hints of red fruit, such as dried cherry or currant, may emerge, creating a multidimensional olfactory profile.
On the palate, the flavor begins with sweetness, reminiscent of caramelized sugar and ripe fruit. It then transitions into resinous pine, pepper, and a subtle herbal bitterness. The exhale can carry an old-school incense-like character, with a lingering finish of skunky musk and a warm, minty aftertaste.
Effects
While specific effects are not detailed in the provided notes, the indica-dominant genetics suggest a predominantly relaxing physical sensation, potentially balanced by a lifted headspace contributed by the Jack Herer ancestry. The THC content, ranging from 15-25%, indicates a moderate to strong potency.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
Red Super Skunk Auto features a THC content typically ranging between 15% and 25%, with CBD levels below 1%. The terpene profile is noted to include Limonene, Caryophyllene, Terpinolene, and Ocimene. These contribute to the strain's complex aroma and flavor, with Caryophyllene potentially adding peppery notes, Limonene citrus and orange characteristics, and Terpinolene and Ocimene contributing to spicy and herbal nuances.
Growing
This autoflowering strain is considered resilient and adaptable, performing well in various environments including indoor tents, balconies, and outdoor gardens. Its compact size and fast lifecycle, typically 10 to 12 weeks from seed to harvest, make it suitable for growers seeking multiple harvests per season or those with limited space. Managing humidity during late flowering is recommended due to the dense bud structure.
Origins & Lineage
Red Super Skunk Auto was developed by Blim Burn Seeds, a breeder known for combining European and North American genetics. It is an autoflowering cultivar created in America using foundational European strains such as Jack Herer and Skunk. Ruderalis genetics were incorporated to ensure automatic, day-neutral flowering. This breeding approach aims to deliver classic Skunk flavors and potency with the aromatic complexity and vigor of Jack Herer, in a resilient and easy-to-grow autoflowering plant.
