By my calculations :roll: there have been a handful of companies release these old school skunks and yet not a single person screaming eureka. Now the scam had evolved to "I'm selling these as old school skunk but i personally haven't found the real skunk, it's more sweet/onion/a little skunky, but if you buy enough YOU just might be the lucky one to get an actual rks"

As crazy as this sounds the closest I've came to skunk the past decade was when one of the older buddies came through with some bricked "mids". Usually is a hard pass but I could smell his little dub when he was stumbling out of his car.

The community needs to stop buying this crap and should shun any "breeder" who sells any rks seeds without personally growing actual rks from the seed stock they sell. They know good and damn well what they are doing. This is an actual scam at this point

ah im confident its still out there last year in this same thread i was having a discussion with another guy who claimed he too had seen the real skunk in the past few years. same as myself, the guy went as far as telling everyone the city he was from it was a bit of shock he lives a few hours away from me. the friend that i did see with the skunk picked up quarter pound when he was doing some work in the same city where the other guy in this thread was from. i looked through the qp unfortunatly i didnt see any seeds. it had the same distinct smell when i used to see it regularly thats going back about 15 years now.

Hi,,looking at the old SSSC catalog the skunk #1 or M9 strain is described as Afghan ,Colombian and Thai cross,,

all other descriptions that I can find , except Aladdin skunk from Khalifa, are described as an Afghan, Colombian and Mexican cross.

I agree completely...thing is, I find myself arguing with kids that weren't even fukin' well born yet when I was smoking the true vintage dead skunk bud. They say it is, but it barely has a skunk smell, and if it does, it's only temporary. The skunl bud I recall you couldn't hide the smell of it...it permeated anything. The kids are trying to convince me that bud is way way better than it was in the '60's, '70's, '80's & '90's. Um, WRONG...besides, how the fuck do you know, where you there? Well I was. Kids these days eh?
You mean like the stuff that people were rumored to copycat by smuggling their brickweed in a trunk with a dead skunk?
I used to think that’s just how all pot smelled.
It’s what made me start to wonder if I was smelling dead skunk or someone’s grow, when driving through the woods.
I didn’t realize that geno-/pheno- type was going missing until seeing all the threads here, but yeah- haven’t really noticed anything quite like it in a long time.
Shoot- I’m going to start asking friends. A lot of growers here are just living there life offline and growing the same strains that’ve always worked in their woods.
Damn. Now I really do miss The Skunk. Truly “high school” weed as folks are fond of saying here.

The real deal Texas Shoreline cut is probably the closest there is out there that has been confirmed to be in existence within the past decade. None of the crosses have matched it yet, but it's also not supposed to be the most potent thing to begin with either, just really loud. I can imagine that cut is probably tired now. It's decades old.

Maybe when Texas finally capitulates it will come out of the shadows and we'll have better documentation, at least from that branch. It's likely an offshoot of the original thing from way back when.

I like the Shoreline OG I've been running for a few years but it's not 100% pure skunk. It does have all the flavors ya'll are talking about though, burned tires, roadside ditch skunk carcass smell, etc.


I have the Durand Line seed selections waiting for me to pick up at the mailbox. I'm really stoked about the Red Khandahar "Rotten Protein terpenes" they keep talking about on IG. Those afghani farms look unreal!

Are we looking for ‘94-‘99 skunk? That’d be the time frame dad was growing back in the day. Anyone know if any good skunks from this time period?
That’s when I’m thinking about from. Had my first toke in middle school ‘94 but didn’t get into it until high school. The more I see this thread the more I realize I miss that damn dead fucking skunk smell! Just nostalgia, perhaps

New school skunk. I hope to find it. :-)

I don't have any more room this year, really, but I'm sneaking in 3 beans anyway. 1 each of Maruf Kandahar Red, Black, and Green. I'll keep clones of all of them to add to a later open pollination of the rest, doing each type separately. I just can't wait to see what is in here. If I get a male I'll probably try and chuck a little pollen amongst some of my clones.

We just got full legalization as of this week (signed bill) in New Mexico and I've got some big plans (hopefully) moving forward. Hope to see good things for all.

Our landscape and weather patterns, climate and growing methods here are very similar to Afghanistan. I'm just really grateful to be in a position to even try some of these strains. Those farmers have worked very hard to get them to where they are today. The tourbook is just a fantastic source of information.

Look at the info under Maruf Kandahar.
