Euphoric
The Skunk Ape strain is a pure Indica weed that resulted through crossing the cross of Las Vegas Purple Kush and Original Glue. The strain is a child of celebrity parents and has also gained popularity among medical patients for its mellow effects and delicious taste. With the terpene profile dominated by limonene and geraniol, Skunk Ape has a citrus taste and spicy herbal aroma featuring notes of skunk and flowery exhale. This cannabis bud provides mellow euphoria that is very relaxing in nature, warming every part of the body with high waves and leaving them fully sedative by the end. This is why this strain is recommended for nighttime use to better sleep and unwind after a long day. Skunk Ape marijuana contains 18-20% THC, which is high potency that is suitable only for veteran smokers.
I grew two clones of this weed this year. My plants grew like mad! Yielding a total of four pounds total. I'm talking four pounds of serious bud in jars. The weed is sticky and massive buds. Highly recommend

Skunk Ape Strain Uses & Side Effects
According to stoners, the Skunk Ape strain is best for nighttime use due to its relaxing and sleep-inducing effects. The high of this marijuana starts with a warming euphoria that helps get rid of bad racing thoughts and quickly leaves smokers dozing if they are not careful.

However, later you won't be able to do something as the body will be sedated and the mind free from stress, allowing you to enjoy a deep long night's rest. Thanks to these effects and its high THC level, this weed is used by medical patients to soothe symptoms associated with the following issues:
- Stress
- Anxiety
- Muscle spasms
- Insomnia
- Nausea
Due to high THC concentration, Skunk Ape may cause minor side effects. The most common are:
- Thirst and dry mouth

I grew two clones of this weed this year. My plants grew like mad! Yielding a total of four pounds total. I'm talking four pounds of serious bud in jars. The weed is sticky and massive buds. Highly recommend
I thought the buds were amazing with a frosty coat of trichomes. The real deal is when you lit it. the smell and taste are in a class of its own and the euphoria I feel is waaaoow. I think I may be in love already
bonging this pot right now and I cant even begin to explain the goodness buubbling inside of me. Seems leafy was right to give it a very high rating on relaxation and euphoria. I am so happy that I dont wanna do anything today.
Hands down, the most relaxing vape I ever had. Enjoyable smoke, smooth and slick with a rich and inviting aroma. You can not walk out on this burst of freshness and goodness
Worth every dollar I have spent on it in the last few months. I experiences muscle spasm post trauma and this is the one dope that gets my body to calm down and relax.
I vaped this weed and I felt a feeling of relaxation almost immediately. It is one of the best strain to use when you want to relax. It delivers a full body high that leaves you euphoric and happy. I will definitely buy it again.
the flower has a nice color, it is fine on a general level but nothing spectacular to see here. I am definitely taking a walk.
A very good pain reliever that calms me as well as relaxes my mind.
I wont go as far as to say that this is my fav strain but it has one hell of a kick and very good at night.
Good quality smell and taste, it helps me relax and this usually leads to sleep.
if you like GDP strain, then you should absolutely try this one.
The smoke gives off coffee aroma with chocolate undertones.
Helps me sleep well
Bloody beautiful buds
increases mental relaxation
Refreshing taste
