About Black Skittles
Black Skittles is an indica-dominant hybrid bred for dense, dark buds and a sweet, grape-forward flavour. It delivers a predictable, calming body effect with a mild uplifting head high, and suits evening use; growers should focus on humidity control and airflow to protect buds during flowering.
Grow Difficulty:
Growing Black Skittles in humid greenhouse environments demands close attention to airflow and mould prevention. An intermediate grower can manage it with regular defoliation and strict hygiene routines.
Flowering Time:
Flowering usually completes within 8 to 10 weeks under stable conditions. Some phenotypes may finish slightly earlier with optimised light and feeding.
Yield:
Yield is moderate to high when plants receive consistent nutrients and training. Indoor setups can reach around 350–450 g/m² while greenhouse plants often produce higher per-plant returns.
Height:
Plants remain medium in stature with a compact, bushy structure suited to sea-of-green or low-stress training. Final heights commonly range from 60 to 120 cm depending on pruning and canopy management.
Environment:
Indoors and in greenhouses around Oxford this strain performs well with controlled humidity and ventilation. Outdoors in the Oxford area it benefits from a sheltered position and early checks for mould.
Climate:
In Oxford humid greenhouse environments promote vigorous vegetative growth but increase the risk of bud rot during flowering. Strong ventilation, dehumidification and regular inspection are essential to protect final yields.
