that's about it bro, those old school super skunky skunks are few and far between nowdays....all the skunks are the dutch sweet skunk varieties...Wheezer, I harvested my RSK and still no skunk smell but my neighbor detected a whiff.
My expectations may be too high. I quit smoking for a long time and the only time I had skunk was mid 90's and my friends who had it were going to humboldt and bringing it to Vegas.
It reeked superbad and actually smelled just like skunk. So I grew a Romulan recently that had a unique taste and smell that I cant describe. This RSK has a bit of that smell and taste, just not as strong. Maybe this is all skunk and I am just use to a skunk strain that is not easy to find anymore.
i love me a good skunk, yur right tho, it does have that unmistakable taste you never forgetThat explains that. So that romulan was a sweet skunk? It had a taste and smell that was super unusual and I did not have a clue as to how to describe it.
Ran into Swerve here fighting with trolls. Nice guy.
He offered to send me a pack of seeds.
Been wanting to try his gear for a year.
Woooooot!
That does not make much senseThe reason why skunk doesn't smell like it used to is because the smell was purposefully bred out.
How so?That does not make much sense
How so?
"Sams skunk was called skunk because it omitted a strong pungent smell when grown or smoked. Similar to that given off by a skunk. Growers in Holland loved sams skunk because it yielded more and finished sooner then other strains at the time.
The only problem was the smell!! Landlords were reporting growers and people were busted all over. Sam the skunkman intestinally bred out the smell in favour of a sweeter smell Over the next few generations the skunk smell was intestinally lost."

No, it's Ch9 seed co.Scarhole, is that greenbud in your sig "colorado green bud"?
Somebody must still have the old version though, right?The smell was a large part of the appeal and now that it is gone, I bet most people want it back
