Also known as: Apsu
Apsu Strain Overview
Apsu is a rare cannabis strain developed by Spanish breeder Jardala Seeds through crossing their award-winning I.S.S (Island Sweet Skunk) champion strain with Purpurea Ticinensis. This hybrid represents a unique combination of genetics that brings together the tropical, citrusy characteristics of Island Sweet Skunk with the alpine-adapted qualities of the Swiss Purpurea Ticinensis landrace. The I.S.S parent, which stands for Island Sweet Skunk, is itself a Skunk #1-derived sativa-dominant strain known for its sweet, tropical flavor profile and energetic effects. The Purpurea Ticinensis parent is a Swiss sativa landrace that was developed through eight years of selection work at 1,300 meters altitude in the Ticino mountains, known for its early flowering, red stems, and purple coloration in cold conditions. Apsu exhibits characteristics from both parent strains, including the penetrating aroma inherited from its lineage and potent psychoactive effects. The strain is classified as 70% indica and 30% sativa according to available documentation, suggesting it leans toward the relaxing side while retaining some sativa influence from both parents.

Apsu Strain Growing Information
Apsu is reported to have very early flowering characteristics, typically finishing in 7-8 weeks indoors or by late September outdoors. The strain is described as having very high yield potential and being relatively easy to grow. Seeds are known for quick germination, often breaking shell within 24 hours and showing cotyledons within 2 days of planting. The strain exhibits vigor from both parent genetics and may show purple coloration in cooler conditions due to its Purpurea Ticinensis heritage. Plants can be grown both indoors and outdoors, with outdoor cultivation being particularly suitable given the hardy nature inherited from its Swiss mountain-adapted parent.
