This skunk is supposed to be 50% Colombian / 25% Afghani / 25% Mexican Acapulco Gold, so makes sense to me.

I'm really just using it as a clue to let me know I might be on the right track. Also, I think it's a cool trait.

Yeah i know but if we going by that history it isnt so simple the first reason acapulco was supposedly brought into skunk#1 was to shorten flowering slightly and to help attempt to stabilise sexual instability found in the initial first gens of crosses of the columbian gold x mazari x columbian gold x mazari this was done with seeds obviously not clones and the double serrated leaf trait isnt something id read into too much its in skunk but its in many other varieties too so id look into the plants structure smell and effect more than anything before considering leaf traits

Just to clear something up about smells...my girlfriend does not smoke...weed or cigarettes...I do not think my weed smells like a skunk...she swears it is skunky as hell...but...case in point...the other night a car in front of us ran over a skunk...I ran over it after he did...we forgot about that incident...cue to a few days later we take same car to Costco...needless to say I was tearing the car apart while she was in Costco looking for the "lost bag of weed" that we both swore was in there...but it was in fact, the smell of the skunk we ran over the night before.
That is how fucked up it is to interpret skunk smell.
I am also 55 yrs old and remember well the stinking ass skunk bud that went around...I'm from Virginia and we definitely got shitloads of it for many years.
There is also Appalachian Skunk that is grown outdoors and comes around here where I live...it's here now being sold all over the Valley. It is extremely skunky...and it smells like a road kill skunk...but it is not limey golf balls with red hair...it is dark green, no red hairs, long conical shaped buds. It is the closest to the "rks" taste and smell I remember that I have seen since about '98.

I get so kind of sad Bro . I can't believe the taste and there was quite a few different danky weeds in the 80s , not just skunk and all danky and since I've been back 8 yrs maybe now I have not tasted any of the danky stuff that was around . I don't get it ?. I want to say 2010 I did some Master Kush for a friend and it was pretty 80ish .

I would not say it expands much...I smoked some today that a friend had...it is very very stinky...I smelled it on him as soon as he got in my truck...after you smoke it, you reek badly of skunk...it's the closest I have seen since about 98 when I first got out and could smoke again.

My Shark Shock from Mr. Nice is lime green with a sour smell and taste. I culled the widow leaners and kept one sour skunk. I have had it since fall of 2018. Long lime green conical spears.

The Valley in CT north of Bridgeport had that in 92-94. Round sugar coated nugs, my shark shock smokes similar but with a different structure. It took me from 93 to 2018 to get a similar smoke. Many may say that is bull shit but I disagree. I was in Britsh Columbia north of Vancouver in 2017 and I smoked Great White Shark and I was like "this is like the shit from the valley". I then went on to purchase Mr.Nice Shark Shock seeds and sifted through 8 seeds(3 female widow leaners frosty and dense but had no head high, zero, just looked good and 4 males).
From that I got one keeper each of shark shock: a female and a male that pollinated my Orange Sodas from Trichome Jungle Seeds. The pictures the Orange Shark above is the Orange Soda#1 that I hit with the male that I abused(along with others SS males and it was the only one to go back to veg after flipping back to 18/6).
That shark shock in that picture in previous a post can make a room smell like cat piss at around 9/10 weeks.
Funny how far we will go to grow this plant.
