Skittlz seems to have earned its name from a distinctly fruity aroma and flavor, a candy-like sweetness that sits alongside hints of skunk and diesel. The buds display a colorful, multi-hued appearance that echoes the candy theme and invites close inspection. This is an indica-dominant cross between Pure Power Plant (PPP) and Wakeford—a rare hybrid with Skunk and G-13 genetics—which together yield a compact, resin-coated cultivar.
On consumption, the effects settle into a calming, potent euphoric lift with clear mental relief and a pronounced appetite stimulant. This makes Skittlz a potential option for patients dealing with wasting or eating disorders, while it can also help alleviate migraines, headaches, inflammation, nausea, and chronic pain.
In terms of drawbacks, dry mouth and watery eyes are the most commonly reported side effects, with others being relatively uncommon. Availability is limited and highly region-specific; it’s notably hard to find and West Coast dispensaries may be the best bet, while it remains uncommon elsewhere, including on the black market. The strain carries fruity flavors with aromas that blend diesel and skunk, reflecting its hybrid lineage.
