I’m thinking about hitting it with Pleiadian artifact or some DLA 16
How did your DLA16 turn out? Im about to start my 3rd run of the solo female i found and i need to pop the rest of the pack to make F2's. Im loving my experience with DLA16 so far! I hope youre having the same joy

Wouldn't this be considered old school skunk?

Not of which we are speaking.

Skunkman Sk1, NEVER had reeking Skunk smell. Its floral, with some reeking overtones, of different smells, but not rank skunk.

We had Skunk, long before I ever even heard of Sk1. We had Skunk, in 78-79 here in East Kentucky, which our contact for genetics, originally came from Meigs County, Rutland- Ohio.

Here in OKlahoma, the first skunk I saw was in the fall of 1980. I'm still in contact with the person who grew it and he relayed this story to me recently. He had already grown a couple of outdoor crops, really nice sativas that finished in mid November. He went hiking in Hawaii and met a grower who ended up giving him 2 different batches of seed. One was a very sativa, creeper weed, with bright green wispy buds. And the other was some of the first Affie we saw here. Short, bushy plants that finished in mid September. Very indica. Denser buds than we were used to, that smelled like skunk, at least for a month or 2 ,because we didn't understand storage back in those days.

No Cigar. And we had Skunk, long before those 2 strains were available. Friend grew it from 78-79, and got ratted out in 1984, and lost it, to the cops. My buddy grew tons of it on the Levisa Fork, of the Big Sandy River, in South East Ky-Va border. It was in the middle of nowhere/mountains then, and you could grow about as much as you could plant. This would also be about a 120 miles, 1 way drive, on a 2 lane road, loaded with coal trucks, in the mountains, of E Ky. It was truly dangerous. Youd never get away with it now.
Same thing for the Ohio River.
He lived ( RIP ) in north east Ky, and would drive 50 miles to Garrison Ky, put his boat in the water, and go west, and then go across the river, to Adams County Ohio, and plant on the back side of some really really really nice farms, that grew corn, and was as flat, as a pancake. Plants got sun from dawn, until dark. Main thing you have to worry about growing on the river, is FOG, in the fall, and it can destroy the weed. But nothing grows weed like a river bottom.


But anything from Mr Nice, or anything else with Sk1, or if you see Sk1 advertised. remember. Sk1 NEVER had a skunk smell, and is a sweet type skunk, with possible catpiss phenos, cheese, floral hash. But Skunk, ammoniated, sulfur, aint one of them.
Nothing Watson, ever had, was reeking skunk.

My theory is since skunk was popular in the 80’s and 90’s throughout North America it has something to do with low soil PH. Acid rain/sulfur caused acidic soil throughout the country and by the end of the 90’s regulations had greatly cleaned up the acid rain, causing farmers to have to introduce or increase sulfur because nature adapted to the low PH. This is the same time skunk disappeared.
I did post some studies related to this a year or two back on this post.

I'm convinced Chems are at least half original American Skunk. It's the only thing that seems to still smell and taste like it, both in bud and in smoke. I'm actually beginning to wonder if Chem was just an exceptional batch of Skunk and nothing else... I don't know about that though... I think there's probably NL and maybe Pinetar or Xmas in Chems too... hmmm

Funny how we have had all the advances in growing lights, nutrients, organic. Yet lost all the good strains along the way. My guess is the skunk we are looking for if ever found would be more for smelling than smoking as I’m betting it was probably like 10-15% the? But back then it was top notch not only because of the smell but because it wasn’t compressed brick weed. But oh every time I drive past a roadkill I slow down breath deeply and it reminds me of better days…

Honestly i think theres afghani#1 in it and skunk in it and also white widow x nl or ww x nl x nl or nl cross something that has that recessive fuel terp trait that brings it to the front honestly who knows this is just my guess going by taste smell and growth traits we proly never gonna know the full story with the chems sadly i dont think its a pure skunk tho defo a hybrid of it tho
