Huge and Tasty – Giant Skittlez is the ultimate blend of size and flavour. Massive Yields are a given with our strains but with this taste sensation you get the best of both worlds. Think the sweetest of candy, only in Mega sized proportions. Open up a giant bag of candy to taste the rainbow!
We loved the amazing, zingy fruit flavour of the original Skittlez and it was well deserving of its multiple cup wins. But the one area we felt that it needed improving was the yield. As soon as we got our hands on a clone of the original, we set about making it a true yield master. As we wanted to keep the outstanding taste and aroma, we needed a cross that would simply enhance what was already there and using the classic Critical Mass we were not disappointed.
Giant Skittlez sticks to her more Indica family lines staying reasonably short, even when planted outdoors normally topping out around 6ft, but the buds are something to behold. Stacked in massive clusters thanks to the branching pattern being so close; when she is in the final stages you will see more flowers than leaves. Buds retain a slightly Purple colour because of the Mendocino in the mother, the leaves are a dark and shiny green, with trichomes covering every available surface.
The effects of this strain are a beautiful balance of high and stoned, an early onset of uplifting feelings rapidly settles down into a more relaxing body stone. You won’t be quite “stuck to the couch” but nicely comfortable without a care in the world.
In short, when you want the best tasting weed and loads of it, Giant Skittlez has to be your first choice.

Strain FAQ
Does every early-finishing strain have Indica dominance?
Indicas have a shorter flowering period and so are normally involved somehow, however breeders have also created fast-flowering Sativa and hybrid strains. This is very useful as breeders can select from a larger range of potential genetic attributes.
Does this strain's South American heritage mean anything for resiience?
South American cannabis cultivars are said to be resistant to pests and illnesses due to their wide variety of environmental adaptations. They are ideal for breeding programmes that aim to strengthen cannabis plants due to their resilience.
How have tall cannabis strains been used historically?
Tall cannabis cultivars, like Hemp, have a long history beyond psychoactivity. Their fibres have been used in textiles, ropes, and building materials for ages.
What is Zkittlez's THC content?
Zkittlez's moderate THC range of 15% to 23% makes it attractive to a range of collectors. This balanced potency is one of the reasons it has become such as popular strain.
Do you know which terpenes give these strains their fruity flavour?
Sure! The sweet, mango-like aroma of myrcene is said to relax, while limonene is said to boost mood with its zesty scent. Caryophyllene is peppery, pinene adds a crisp, piney and apple note, while terpinolene adds citric, floral, herbal, and piney notes.
