This strain completely wrecked me. I was not expecting to get hit this hard. Supposedly has 19.6% thc content, and I believe it. Very strong CEVs and huge bursts of creativity. I was grinning like a maniac too and felt fantastic. Absolutely terrific.
If possible, vaporize at 180C, then 200C. Then do whatever you normally do with vaporized bud.
It does smoke very well too, of course.
The Island Sweet Skunk I am smoking right now is from a new local pot shop in Colorado. It produces a very heady, uplifting and hazy high.
Although it's not widely known as a bud with pronounced flavors, the Island Sweet Skunk strain can actually be very flavorful! If you have a well grown batch, you can taste a very pronounced sweetness to the bud that contains faint notes of vanilla, nutmeg, and sometimes butter. As you exhale, these notes fade into notes of honey and almost a molasses taste. Along with the vanilla, I sometimes taste the indistinct flavor of Fall which I think is actually a hint of red apple.
This Colorado grown Island Sweet Skunk almost gives you the feeling that you are floating a few inches above the ground, or the chair you're sitting in, while at the same time, you are surrounded by a very light fog. This fog is almost completely invisible, except for the opaque feeling of a smoke-like substance layered between you and the existential items within your view. Physically, there is a strong tingling sensation behind my eyes in addition to other areas of my face like my cheeks.
Keep smoking,

This strain has changed my life. It has my favourite focused sativa high, it's beautiful. I suffer from depression and I think it's impossible to feel sad while on this magnificent strain :) I would highly recommend it to anybody who feels down or wants an extreme energy boost during the middle of your stoner day! All in all, Island Sweet Skunk gives you a strong energy boost and can help you accomplish any boring task in your day 10/10
Strong pain relief, it's like the Hawaiian Punch guy surfed in on a wave of Starburst and decked my migraine in the face.
best strain period. smells like white sage being burnt. very clear and no bad side effects. very potent so one hit lasts along time.
Island Sweet Skunk is definitely one of the more unique strains I've had the pleasure to smoke. The sativa genetics are clearly visible just glancing at these nugs, with spindly stems and loose, fluffy buds. The pleasant aroma almost reminded me of Kahlua with a smattering of tropical fruitiness. Absolutely delectable. On smoking, I was pleased to be hit with a wave of sativa buzziness and became giddy and talkative. The paranoia I often get from sativas was absent in this one as well. One of the happiest and most positive strains I've smoked. A very versatile strain as it was suitable for day and nighttime use for me. Wonderful stuff.
I grabbed a gram of Sweet Island Skunk live resin from this dispo in southern CO.
The taste and smell can accurately be described as a citrus explosion. It didn't give me a terp % but it had to have been through the roof. The effects were perfect for exploring Mesa Verde National Park. We were alert, energized, and upbeat as hell, eager to answer questions and be social. Never did we get sluggish on this strain. The duration was a plus as well lasting 2 strong hours. All in all a blast and perfect daytime med. 10/10
I bought this strain because it was recommended to me for daytime use. Based on that testimony, I was expecting a straightforward sativa with uplifting and creative effects. What I found was that a full bowl of ISS actually had a heck of a kick. Straight from the vaporizer it was a strong, heady buzz with long-lasting and powerful cerebral effects. When I attached the vaporizer to a bong I found that I got a little too high, experiencing some dizzyness and anxiety. I would not recommend this strain for first time users. I am prone to anxiety, and although I have no problem with this strain, I see the potential for it to be uncomfortable for someone who is not confident in their ability to handle anxiety. I would absolutely recommend this strain for daytime use of experienced of adventurous users who want something energizing, uplifting and fun.
