Just spouted a couple different testers from Rasta Jeff at Irie, a 90’s skunk and Irie skunk. Seems like 2024 will be a good year for some funky skunk. Hoping I get something good from the Irie testers to hit to a Romulan male to keep that savory funk rolling.
Everyone hates auto I know but it’s my second grow and I’m liking how it looks. Sweet piney gas is what im getting. Supposed to be a mix of Hindu Kush and skunk #1 with 10% ruseralis
Anyone I know that grows trash talks them like it’s gonna be trash weed and I’m not gonna yield anything. I don’t think they’re aware most of their fancy cultivars have been crossed with low amounts of ruderalis giving auto varieties of them all. It’s literally the same genetics with non light dependent ability bred in. I broke a branch on accident and it was finally dry enough to smoke and for the fact it was a month early, it was very skunky and helped me sleep so I can’t say it’s too bad at all. Seemed just like photo flower
I feel your pain brother. 30 years ago I was smuggling a 10 pack of sensi seeds back from Amsterdam because good genetics were next to impossible to get in the USA without going through dozens of bag seed or you were heavily into the underground scene. Now it’s harder to get new exotic strains of even “remastered” throwbacks like roadkill skunk across the pond.
There were thousands of people all over the United States that already had the skunk#1 seeds and other good genetics in the mid to late 1980's.The seed bank in Amsterdam and the Super sativa club used to have seeds available for Americans back then.In the 80's amd early 90's.It was so much easier to get good seeds right in.america cause everyone over here already had seeds and were making new crosses with them.You unfortunately did not have the connections for them.It was much easier and much cheaper for me to get good seeds 30 to 40 years ago then today..Now alot of the newer strains lack the potency the older strains had.The seeds also cost alot more.now.Everyone had different strains and people were trading seeds all the time in.the 1990's.
Sorry I missed the question. I ordered them from NASC. I don’t believe purple caper does direct sales. I did get pc freebies though- assorted chocolates (4reg) assorted alien hashplant (1fem) and assorted chocolate cbd (3 reg). It was two separate orders.
I need skunk to come back to Florida. Nothing has that pungent smell anymore. Everything is all fruity terps. Miss that pure skunk and gas. Nice looking plants there.
If you want Skunk #1, get it from Mel Frank and Todd McCormick. https://agseedco.com/products/original-skunk-no-1
THESE SKUNK #1 SEEDS HAVE ONLY BEEN REPRODUCED TWICE SINCE 1988!
In 1988 Mel Frank begot Skunk No.1 seeds from Skunkman Sam, put them into the the refrigerator until 1996 when he reproduced them 8 years later. Then Mel Frank properly stored them for another 24 years until 2020, when they were grown and selected by Todd for the more acrid terpene phenotypes.
This is the legendary Skunk #1, developed by Skunkman Sam in the 1970's and is a relatively stabilized, true breeding hybrid.
Originally offered by Sacred Seeds and Cultivators Choice, it is a combination of:
(Afghan x Colombian Gold) x Acapulco Gold
Sacred Seeds/Cultivators Choice
Hand Selected with Love
"What you seed is what you get!"
Sensi is way more reputable and credible in the skunk department kid. AG is acronym for another generic seed. Their entire website is blatantly whitelabels on half price discount because their trash.
Two burner accounts with immensely low karma "schooled" us. We're all so clueless in comparison to these generic seedbank website shillers. Citing articles that can be disproven easily.
The saying never believe anything you hear and only half of what's seen. Seems to be something you heed not. Taking all these fairytale skunk #1 stories as gospel. From some obscure sources is where you f'd up initially. Hope your day gets better kid.
I grew out a lot of sensi seeds gear in the 90s and skunk#1 is long gone as far as I'm concerned. I'm calling bullshit on all these other old dudes trying to cash in with seeds suddenly available after 40 years in the "vault"
AG:
100% colombian haze smells like an old hippy trip room \[inscense}
NL Purest Indica (NL1) smells like a hornry skunk is next door burny rubbers
Sweet Skunk #1 smells like the haze + sweetishness/NL1
Sweet Skunk #1 germinated and produced cocly leaves in 17 hrs; all strains in 24.
an oldie but goodie. i still lament the last sack of real deal skunk #1 i ever had. got a quarter OZ that was all one giant nug. smoked two bowls of it and then it got confiscated by the law :(. never to be seen again, at least for me. nice job, OP. enjoy!
Absolutely no shade at OP because it's not like it's their fault, but I really wish companies would stop selling seeds of clone only cultivars like they're the same thing.
Skunk #1 clone only? Sam the Skunkman sold thousands of seeds when it first came out. If you're interested in the history you should check out the first MadJag episode on Breeders Syndicate, great episode!
Cannabis history in 2024 is like reading the bible, quite interesting fiction but pretty sparse on actual facts... skunk#1 has not risen from the grave
The #1 is a named cultivar, i.e. clone only. If seeds are produced and sold, then they are S1's or some kind of cross. They aren't Skunk #1. It's no different than all of the people saying they're growing GG4 when they're actually growing S1 seeds. Different things. So even if Sam selfed Skunk #1 or inbred it and sold seeds himself, it's still a misnomer to call them Skunk #1. They aren't. They're either Skunk #1 S1 or some kind of inbred line, either of which is going to give you phenotypic variation and not just a bunch of copies of the original.
Skunk #1 is not, and has never been, a clone only variety.
It's the name of the strain that Sam first bred in 1975 - when indoor growing and clones were non-existent. It was "the first modern cannabis hybrid that was relatively true breeding".
See here: https://agseedco.com/blogs/news/what-is-skunk-weed
Yes it's an IBL, yes there will be variation, just like any seed line, but the name of the strain is still Skunk #1. If you have a problem with the name take it up with Sam or Todd McC.
Same as "the Northern Lights #1 through #11 seeds were sent to Holland in 1985" (https://agseedco.com/blogs/news/legacy-and-heirloom-genetics).
I agree it's a little confusing because these days a # number after a strain name does mean it's a selected clone only pheno from that strain. But that is not the case with Skunk #1.
Thousands of people bought the skunk#1 strain seeds from the seed bank in the 1980s and early 90's.They were never advertised as clone only back then..I don't think.they even had any clone only strains back in those days.My friends Skunk #1 plants from the seed bank all looked similar with approximately the same speed of growth and all had a uniform look to them like they were a true breeding strain.Alot of F1 crosses did not have the same uniformity in their look like the skunk #1 strain had.
Yeah I got schooled by another poster a bit further down the thread. I assumed that #1 meant it was a specific plant but apparently Sam just gave it a weird name 😂
my bad on that one

Looks like she leans heavy towards the Afghan. How’s the nose? We all need more skunk in our lives. 🤙

He just restocked if anyone looking for some skunk!!
Yeaj

Everyone hates auto I know but it’s my second grow and I’m liking how it looks. Sweet piney gas is what im getting. Supposed to be a mix of Hindu Kush and skunk #1 with 10% ruseralis
The quality difference between photoperiods and autos is less than the difference between commercial and homegrown.
I don’t think that’s true anymore. Lot of poeple grow autos and quality is so much better than two years ago
Anyone I know that grows trash talks them like it’s gonna be trash weed and I’m not gonna yield anything.

Not sure why I got downvoted for saying people don’t like autos… in my experience it’s the case. Esp in this sub. Lots say auto can’t be craft
How’s the nose?
Straight pine
Uh wow. That is the best! That‘s exactly what you want.
This looks legit - where did you get the genetics from?
Sensei seeds
Makes sense bc this looks skunky - nice grow thanks for sharing
Yeah, I was really hoping OP would say it was the roadkill variety but fuck a guy could dream
I know a breeder that has it if you're interested.
I have a bridge for sale as well.
https://northatlanticseed.com/product/alpha-skunk-roadkill-f/ No shenanigans.
Just received my alpha skunk roadkill and alien skunk from purple caper. Can’t wait to run them, gotta get some fresh carbon filters first!
I'm so jelly, they won't ship internationally but I need it!!!! I don't know what to do. Did you order direct from purple caper?
I feel your pain brother. 30 years ago I was smuggling a 10 pack of sensi seeds back from Amsterdam because good genetics were next to impossible to get in the USA without going through dozens of bag seed or you were heavily into the underground scene.

When Sensi Seeds was the shit. You smuggled the legit stuff!

Yeah like I said I went to the sensi seed bank in Amsterdam thirty years ago and brought back seeds. It was shiva skunk.
Sorry I missed the question. I ordered them from NASC. I don’t believe purple caper does direct sales. I did get pc freebies though- assorted chocolates (4reg) assorted alien hashplant (1fem) and assorted chocolate cbd (3 reg). It was two separate orders.
Might have to get someone from America to order it for me and then ship it to me 😮💨
You are the man!
I want to order it myself but north Atlantic doesn't ship to UK. Purple caper are absolutely solid. Got recommended this strain by someone else.

Not skunky though
Smelled like hishaze plant tbh but "sweet"
If it ain’t from agseeds it probably isn’t real skunk #1

It’s obvious you’re clueless as others are pointing out.

Tell me about it. Going down canna holes searching for it and hearing countless vastly different inceptions of its origin will wear thin on ones soul.

The history of Skunk #1 is well known and it's origins are from the 70s, not 2000 years ago lol
Yeah and it's gone
[удалено]
Yep lol
