One of my IG friends got a cut of Skunk about a year back. He had to agree not to make seeds or give away cuttings in order to get it. He hasn't talked about it, so I'm guessing the stink was not RKS level stink.

Of my stuff, I did a seed test awhile back with (Shit x Shit/skunk) X (Skunk x Shit/skunk). Only 2 of 6 sprouted, and 1 of those didn't grow. Assuming it is a female, and deer, grasshoppers, cold weather, etc, etc, don't kill it, I'll check back in with a stink report in the spring.

I have some so called road kill skunk beans from Old School Breeders Association.
I cracked 1 for test and a bonsai mom, she has been topped twice so soon I will be taking 4 clones.

has anyone tried these I hope it’s the real deal but we all know it’s probably not.

Not RKS. They got me too, so don’t feel bad. On the bright, makes large colas, yields well, but fruity/sweet.

Skunk #1 used to have a closer connection to the stank, I ran one around 2008 that stank hard core but it was a sweet skunk in the end. I feel like I wished I had worked that plant as the connection was definitely there.

Has anyone tried Mr. Nice's Shit? That is suposed to be a worked affy leaning sk1 x sk1
I have thought about ordering that and trying it out at some point. I have a couple packs of critical skunk that I want to pop this year.

Okay I see I missed Too Larry's post above from thursday. Good Luck!

i found it but shes getting old. I got a pheno of kandy kush about 12 years ago ish. The pheno is getting old but she is still full blowd skunk ....real road kill .....before they bred the smell out. I got a hogsbreath too , but that one was for sure bred to not be as stinky. "same fire skunk , just mellowed way down"

Neville used to say something about crossing and taking an F2 to uncover the stank, I think it’s posted which strains here even. Ortega/devil maybe.

I think nordle was a worked super skunk and may be a nice place to start. I dont remember devil but I think ortega is nl1xnl5 but that is old memory stuff so should be fact checked.

I had a Black Widow Skunk cross man years back ...smelt like fat sweaty lesbian armpits and cat litter tray ...the smell turned my stomach worse than Buddhas Blue Cheese strain.. But it had a chemical lemon and smouldered piney taste..and the high was soaring...i dont remember getting couch lock with it.. But I have smoked a hell of a lot since then ...lol FS :leaf:

Now that I've read it, it does kinda make sense. Not that I was thinking those two strains but just the part about crossing two strains that have skunk components in them and look at the f2's. The recombination of true skunks in theory should cough up an RKS. Then again if it was that simple we'd already have it but it does make me think about combos using the strains I already have.

My little seed test (Shit x Shit/skunk) X (Skunk x Shit/skunk) has leaves about as wide as they are long. Easty made the original crosses using old seeds, so hoping they were from before the stank was bred out of them. I have five of the shit/skunk crossed strains, but so far they are more musk than stink. I've made lots of crosses with them, but this was my first to cross back to Shunk.

Strayfox might have something, he made an Instagram post a few months ago about RKS he found:



guess we'll have to wait and see but it sounds promising

That's cool. The Northern Mi. Roadkill is something I'm familiar with smoking from WAY back and it was pure funkyskunky roadkill it's NOT the same Skunk that was being sold on the West coast at the same time though. (I've got family in both places and lived back and forth between Northern Mi. and Central Ca. all my life) Late 70's early 80's Santa Cruz / Scott's Valley skunk was just as LOUD and smelling pure like pure skunkass but not the same taste, instead it was a little sweet. The Mi. weed wasn't as bright green or as fluffy popcorn bud style as the Ca skunk either. Mi, stuff was a darker green and a kinda chuncky and tasted like it smelled, lol.

And I don't think that either one came from SK1 because I've played with sk1 a ton and never gotten any crosses from it that ever had that pureskunkfunk. I played around with "Peacemaker" too if anyone remembers that strain, that might have been a little closer if you could find one that actually smelled, the taste was for sure old school. Superskunk was a nice big producer but not roadkill. I might have to try the Mi one to see if it's anything like back in the day, don't know if I could accurately remember this many years later but who knows it might kick in a brain cell or two and bring back a memory.

Sad thing is I probably wouldn't recognize it if it hit me in the face because half the memories from back then are a little bit suspect and I know my taste buds ain't the same nor are my expectations of what's loud and flavorful. All that old school stuff was actually kind of bland if it was put up against some of today's super strong flavors and smells. We might be looking for something that didn't exist in quite the way we remember. Stronger than average smelling buds back then wouldn't be that smelly today, they would just be average, even though they would still stand out in our memories as the smelliest around from back then.
