Thanks my friend. I have a pack on the way. It’s the most I’ve ever paid for a pack of beans, so hopefully I find something worth keeping. If not I would have wasted the $200 on fishing gear or beer.

This is good feedback. Hopefully it's just the phenotype you popped that didn't have much smell, which can happen. I can't imagine Sensi selling a Skunk that didn't smell, with how long they've been in business. Looking forward to feedback on the rest.

I haven#t heard a good thing since 20 hyrs ago, have you seen any recent grow with sensi seeds or any praise of them?

I don't even know what a badger smells like let alone a skunk

People would be better off looking for the old ultra skunk/super skunk aka skunk x afghanT if any f1 seeds can still be found if they want that rank afghan type skunk stink. There were some in those when first released that out shone the skunk by far.

Long time ago I found a absolute stonker in uk cheese x the train wreck. One single plant way way out stunk 40 uk cheese cuts in the same room. It was as if something was dead and rotting in the room
That is disgusting.. I would prefer the cheesy skunk.

What are the true characteristics of the true skunk supposed to smell and taste like ?
And did it originate from Afghan in from some province from a soldier or journalist or the like? Or did it come from maybe the Hindu Kush regions ?
Or those strains that flower for a year or more on madagascar that can smell of burnt carrots and honey cardamon and incense
...sorry high tangent
What's skunks real taste n smell? Like an acrid skunk? Maybe akin to a cat piss? Or is it more of a rotten dead smell? Or a combo of both? Is it indica Dom ?
Thanks for the thoughts in advance brothas n sistas

Burned tires and like driving by a dead skunk on the side of the road.
I don't think anyone knows the true origins but likely Afghani parentage for sure. People have talked about skunks since the 70's so very old lineage in modern cannabis times.
I'm hoping to find some of these characteristics from the Durand Line project seeds, but I have Shoreline OG and also Heime Cheeba's RKS (via Authentic Genetics) so it will be interesting comparing and contrasting.
The Shoreline OG cut I run has interesting citrus and soapy tastes in addition to the skunk & tires flavor. They are quite complimentary. The skunk is definitely there.

road kill skunk is like burnt rubber, strong coffee, skunk of course, onions, garlic etc

This is definitely how I remember it too, atop all that, there’s this smell that reminds me of when you pull weeds that gets on your hands and has this sweaty sour sharpness that kind of underpins the skunk smell. It’s hard to identify because I have really only smelled it on those regular yard weeds, but it kind of smells like I remember my grandpas work cowboy hat smelling like lol
The burnt rubber is so spot on!!!

That kinda sounds like a chem or chem hybrid. I had a csi chem91 x urkle that was super skunky, and loud as hell. I get skunky smells off of sour diesel, chem, og.
And I’ve smelled the super loud strong skunk weed that is impossible to hide. Like if someone’s smoking a joint you can smell it from blocks away. It is different than the chems, but I wonder if they’re related somewhere

Well getting the closest old mass supper skunk or something close to the old sour diesel would be s1 giesel. Heard alot of sour and chem heads say giesel is better then sour d in there opinion, and chem d is the best chem and is closest to the dogbud from what pbud mike says. Figured csi would offer giesel s1 by now. Thankfully i got a cut of her so i can s1 her myself one day and run a shit load would be very interesting to see the progeny for myself.
Finding the nastiest pheno in giesel s1 and crossing it to a nasty afghani pheno from balkh region would be interesting aswell

I agree completely...thing is, I find myself arguing with kids that weren't even fukin' well born yet when I was smoking the true vintage dead skunk bud. They say it is, but it barely has a skunk smell, and if it does, it's only temporary. The skunl bud I recall you couldn't hide the smell of it...it permeated anything. The kids are trying to convince me that bud is way way better than it was in the '60's, '70's, '80's & '90's. Um, WRONG...besides, how the fuck do you know, where you there? Well I was. Kids these days eh?

Some thoughts I have had in relation to the road kill skunk and this thread.
Varies sources indicate both here, on seedfinder, icmag, overgrow etc. what the parental line is/are supposed to be.
Question is, if you were to obtain land races of these parental strains/genetics, could one perhaps rediscover that type of pheno/type of smoke.
Now I am not that old at 40, plus living outside the US, so I have not ever smelled or tasted any skunk that is as the road kill should be like as explained in this thread and other places as mentioned.
Grew some Skunk 1 from Positronics back in about 95-96 outside in my parents garden, smelled like a mix of cat piss and oranges which I can read is not the roadkill smell, although I recall that shoreline genetics eg. states that an ammonia sent can be found in their Texas Road Kill.
Am serously considering to purchase some land races this summer and try to maybe, properly not, make a cross that would contain the same parental genetics of the road kill skunk. It would how ever be an ongoing project hence several strains are required.
Have a Good weekend...

Skunk strains are crosses. It’s pretty well history. There’s no pure skunk or landrace skunk.
Baked Beans Cannabis Seeds has a very good Skunk #1 that’s been used by multiple breeders looking for a good skunk to cross with something else.
Baked Beans is an American seed seller in California.

Yes that is correct, I was thinking something like an Afghan, Mexican etc. for the mix.
Bought the Skunk#1 from Seedsman sometime ago, to try it and see how it is in comparison with the one from Positronics, although this is available anymore sadly...

More people need to go back to the basics and breed from the original landraces instead of crossing every FOTM strain together, dumbing down the entire gene pool. It frustrates me to see some of these trendy seedbanks with a dozen "cookies" crosses but nothing original or unique. Good luck on your endeavor, who knows, maybe you'll breed something better than skunk! I've got a good landrace seed collection developing to start my own breeding project, but I also plan on propagating the originals as well.
