First-Party Provenance & Breeder Notes

Developed by Sam “the Skunkman” in the 1970s (per Sensi Seeds’ own history) and refined in the Netherlands by Sensi Seeds, Skunk #1 set the global baseline for hybrid vigor, rapid flowering, and pungent musky aroma. The “Sacred Seeds (California)” corporate attribution is from community and secondary accounts and is not asserted by Sensi Seeds’ own documentation.
