I'm really not sure. I'm thinking it is, but Ive pestered Swami so much here lately I hate to ask anymore questions for the moment.
The Blue Orca Haze x RKS/G is also going to be available, and I'm bettin that also may be 1 stinky plant. But I do remember the old time NL5 x Skunk was super skunky, and not the cat pee. Of which I do like cat pee too.
My buddy has the BOH going right now, but its still only 3 weeks old tomorrow, and Ive never tried it. Its a Kandahar x Thai x NL5/HZ, and will reak I'm sure.
As good as I know NL5 real deal can be, I just wonder how it compares to a selected Kandahar x Thai ??? I think the Blue Orca, is more exotic incense sandlewood vs the N5 is more cat pee, and would probably be more inline with the Skunk traits.
All this so called NL around today, is nothing like the real deal 80s. Its was very stinky, and powerful. I guess Sensi "HAD" the best Mass produced NL5 at 1 time, but lost the genetics, and is now IMHO Junk. Dr Atomic/Bodhi probably have the best examples of NL5. But Bodhi hasn't had it in a while. I believe but am not sure, but I believe Bodhi used DR Atomic genes.
The Swami is also the original 85 cut of NL5, not the seed form. I believe it originally came from... The Indian. Nevil then hybridized it.
But yes. I believe the RKS x NL5 would be the most skunky, but the RKS/G also may be predominate in anything its bred to.

Viable seeds dont normally sink. If u dump 100 seeds in water almost all will float. This is because there sealed. All seeds have air pocket in them. I make thousands of seeds. My good seeds dont sink. I toss all that sink. Many try to sink there seeds which is not needed. If u place the seeds in water they wont sink. If u dump seeds in they can sink but should still float.
Here is a fresh 100 seed soak. Not 1 sinker..

Yeah cool, I've had a few sink straight away and a lot float that sink over night. I don't think the float or sink is a good way to tell if viable tbh.
I'm interested in any tricks to pop old seeds, I've got some old skunk beans and some old NL beans I want to pop but I'm scared to fuck them up haha

I grew that strain, not very impressive final results.

When the root cap is exposed to air over a period of time it will dry out. All seeds have a small amount of h20 in them. When that's gone the seeds are not viable. If the Perianth has cracked in a relatively short period of time the seeds can still be viable. After the seeds have soaked the Perianth becomes soft and cracks seeds will sink if disturbed this is ok but we dont disturb the seeds until ready to plant. We dont use seeds that sink here. Anyone else can use what ever they wish.

No good man. How many did you grow out? I must say I've had a bit of variation for such a "stable" gene

Hopefully I get a good one out of it. Did the plants that you get have massive leaves? Like prehistoric monster leaves.maybe the Stanky male pollen I have might put some smell back into it.. I've Nick named one dog shit and one bin juice. If it's a success I'll call it dog juice or bin shit haha

Hey man, good to hear from you! Yeah, I've been keeping a low profile for a while too, from here I'd say I won't be doing a lot too, have had to give the game away due to family, don't need the security risk and my mrs really wasnt supportive! Hopefully when it gets legalised I can start up again!
How you been mate? It has been a while hey lol

When your the one buying the seeds you have to make due with what you get sometimes. I recently had a sinker & it made me raise an eyebrows like The Rock lol but it germinated just fine.
Now if the seeds are my own chucks well then yeah I can be more strict in seed popping. If im paying x amount those seeds are getting popped or at least an attempt.

Has anyone tried any of the mass superskunk crosses? Bhodi got a few..I got his appy superskunk still deciding if I should crack them, Swami's crosses sound awesome and Shoreline got a shoreline bx on the way, this is good at least if we can't find something close to the original I'd say we have a decent chance of resurrecting it.
got to wonder how this plant lost such a unique powerful potent smell.

Real nl#5 should be skunky, piney, hashy, with some berry in the back ground.
It's one of the best, and m39, which is road kill skunk#1 x nl#5 and it was a serious stinker!

You've got to put your family first friend. My wife is not a fan of weed either.
I've had a spot of bother. 4-5 weeks ago LEOS with helo and 5 cars paid a visit to my camp and the STL patch. Nothing big down there, so I'm thinking maybe I had a dime dropped on me. I was seen crossing the road the week before at daylight in full camo. I haven't been back to that patch, but the JP patch about a 1/4 mile away had three pretty big plants chopped. So far I haven't had anything other than a couple of dirty looks. But I'm staying away from the other patches as much as I can. The Triangle Kush Cookies X Nightcap X Sinmint X Shit/Skunk is looking really good. Seems to be a week or so ahead of everything else. I hit it {and everything else in the FP patch} with like pollen so I'm hoping for good seeds.
You take care.

That's it mate, family is my world so naturally my first choice, was hard to make though!
Oh wow man, that is hectic hey, I'm glad they didn't have anything to pin you on! You stay safe man, the weed is not worth going to jail for hey!!
Glad you still got the other patch though, that TK Cookie skunk cross should do you well too, Skunky just finished one that came out superb! Here's a pic of her in case you didnt see it on IG.

That is nice.
They could have if they had wanted to. I don't like keeping anything at the house, so I had over a unit at the camp. Nothing there was touched. I got everything cleared out now, but I had a couple of sleepless nights. I figure it was my one get out of jail free card. I smoke very little {even less now}, so I don't really need to be growing. I just like to. I may do winter and spring crops and leave the summer for hiking.

Yeah man, Skunk said it was potent with a really rotten fruit smell haha, he loved it!
Wow mate, you did get away well, sounds like your luck came in at the right time, use it wisely haha. I was the same as you, love to grow and only smoke it occaisionally, giving up growing was hard because I enjoyed it so much! I'm glad your safe mate, I hope it stays that way for you!!
