Acapulco Gold Skunk is a finely tuned hybrid developed by Lighthouse Genetics, born from two of cannabis’ most iconic genetic pillars: the legendary Acapulco Gold, a landrace-derived sativa famed for its euphoric, energizing high, and Skunk #4, a refined hybrid known for its explosive terpene profile and reliability in the garden. This cross delivers the best of both — brightness and bag appeal fused with structure and classic funk.
Plants grow with symmetrical branching, moderate height, and strong lateral development. Buds are rounded, chunky, and medium-to-large with lime to gold hues, vibrant orange hairs, and heavy trichome coverage. Cooler temperatures may bring out deeper color tones.
Expect a blend of classic skunk funk, citrus zest, and earthy spice. The scent intensifies late in flower, mixing musky undertones with herbal brightness. Odor control is recommended indoors.
A skunky, earthy inhale gives way to sweet herbal citrus on the exhale. Combustion highlights funk and spice, while vaporization brings forward pine and lemon peel.
With THC levels between 20–25%, effects begin with a gentle cerebral lift, followed by soothing body relaxation. Ideal for social settings, creative work, or end-of-day decompression. Balanced and long-lasting.
Useful for stress, mood support, anxiety, and mild physical discomfort. Offers mental uplift without overstimulation and physical calm without couchlock.
Performs best in controlled indoor grows or warm outdoor climates. Responds well to topping and LST. Flowering time is 9–10 weeks. Maintain low humidity in late flower and use odor control. Expect medium to high yields with full feeding and stable conditions.
Dominant terpenes include Myrcene, Caryophyllene, and Limonene — providing a skunky-spicy-citrus profile with body relaxation and mood clarity.
