if it is from sensi here's what they say
FLOWERING: 45 - 50 DAYS
HEIGHT: 120-150cm
YIELD: up to 100g
The strain that changed cannabis culture and has astonished weed lovers for more than a quarter-century is now available as a feminised variety!
The potency of this branch of the cannabis family tree is so notorious that 'skunk' is often used as a term for any powerful ganja. Breeders regard Skunk #1 as the benchmark of uniform, reliable performance and her rock-solid genotype has influenced a hundred modern hybrids. Skunk #1's energetic performance and bountiful yields demonstrate the true meaning of hybrid vigour. Growth and flowering are mostly-Indica in appearance, though Skunk plants gain more height than pure Indicas when blooming.

Flowering is very fast and Skunk #1 produces robust stems and branches to support her superior yields. Short internode gaps explode into dense, rounded bud-clusters which merge into huge, heavy colas by harvest time.
Skunk #1's Sativa genes have a subtle effect on flower structure plus a wonderful influence on her effect - a stunningly potent combination of stone and high!
the mother i choose from my packet of seeds finishes in 53 days but i wait till most of her glands have changed colar

first grow was a clone from a club skunk #1 amazing really "Up" high tasted amazing after about a week of curing but even better after like 2 and half it was fun for the first grow

I'm interested in this strain as well, but I've heard it's prone to mold during the last few weeks of flowering. Have any skunk #1 growers had problems with that?

[sparkyj]

yes, ive heard that it is susceptible to mold, but usually only under outdoor conditions that are soggy...indoors it shouldnt be a problem with proper ventilation....

[green_gardenr]

yes actually i did notice a small amount of mold near the bottom braches it never got to any buds just in the tangled mess of braches from lsting very good plant to grow it was my first
