Premium Skittles Strain

The Skittles strain, an indica-dominant hybrid, is believed to be a cross between Grape Ape and Grapefruit, with an undisclosed strain added to the mix. It first appeared in the 2010s and quickly gained popularity. The strain was initially developed by an individual known as Gas Station Bob, with Terp Hogz’s Fields and Tony Mendo, alongside Brandon Parker from 3rd Gen Family, helping to grow, promote, and refine it. The Skittles strain has won prestigious awards, including 1st Place at the 2016 Emerald Cup and the 2023 King of Z Hill.
