Shiva Skunk is a Sensi Seeds cross of Northern Lights #5 and Skunk #1 — a resin-heavy indica that helped seed the modern catalogue (it's a parent of Cinderella 99).
Did you try it?
“Skunky funk and pine over an earthy base.”
The nose is classic and sweet: skunky funk and pine over an earthy base. The effect is relaxing and weighty — a calm, body-leaning high that drifts toward sleep.
It's dense, frosty and dependable, an 80s-90s building block. For old-school NL-and-skunk genetics, Shiva Skunk is a quiet workhorse.

Sensory data is a curated, hand-mapped seed; detail completeness is high. Identity confidence is high. The diagram is this strain's own sensory radar, not a photo. Batch quality still depends on grower, freshness and storage — none of which is captured here.
Shiva Skunk is typically described with aromas of skunky, earthy, sweet and citrus and flavours of earthy, sweet, citrus and herbal. Aroma and flavour vary with grower, batch and freshness.
Shiva Skunk is commonly associated with effects such as relaxed, heavy body, euphoric and happy. Effects are subjective and depend on dose, setting and the individual — this is sensory guidance, not a guarantee.
Shiva Skunk is classified as indica in the SŌMA catalog. These labels are a loose shorthand rather than a precise prediction of effect; the plant's full chemistry and how it was grown matter more.
By sensory profile, the closest strains in the SŌMA catalog include Major League Bud, MC Nuggets and Williams Wonder. SŌMA matches on aroma, flavour and effect rather than name alone.
