Just ordered Original Skunk #1 from Seedsman, to try it out...
Same, when I get to it I'll be selecting for the worst stinking skunk-ass mommas possible, hitting them with pollen from the nastiest papas. I want to get it to the point where my fan and scrubber just can't hide it anymore.
Which breeder? Sensi Seeds or Dutch Passion? Anyone have a preference?

I grew out the sensi seeds skunk. Straight Fruit.


I remember about 12 years ago some skunk went around that smelled straight up like a skunks ass. Amazing weed. Been searching for something like it ever since. Haven't found anything remotely similar.

Yes, its had the crap bred out of it, and is more bottle necked vs McCormicks/Mel Franks. This stuff has only been bred 3 times since 88. Mr nice Shit is also different. I hear is back crossed to an Afghani. Ive also grown it. Some is good. Not as stable as the original is the big thing. Different selections, from different growers.
I recently bought some Mr. Nice Shit and was hoping it was till the original cross. I bought some when he first released it about 20 years ago, and actually, I grew everything he had to offer back then and Shit was the only one that was worth growing. It was, as he said when asked why he named it that, "some good shit".

It was Seedsman's own ...

My previous comment was pretty tongue-in-cheek ... I'm not actually expecting the real deal, just more of the same 'fruity skunk' like I've seen in the past. Who knows, maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised.
The reviews are not all that encouraging either - couple guys saying they looked for the original RKS but couldn't find any, one review says yes indeed it's the original SKUNK#1, but I am very skeptical. Will believe it if I see it.:cool:

That's a bold statement. :lol:
I've thought about picking up some Mr. Nice gear recently, but I hate the thought of wasting my time growing something with so many mixed reviews on their new vs old.

Actually also ordered Texas Roadkill via GreatLakesGenetics, but alas they only accept cash from where I am, and due to Covid, the banks are closing down at the moment, a shame, would be cool to test both out at the same time, perhaps even making crosses...

speaking of texas, does anyone know anything first hand about akbb's great southern trendkill skunk? I know akbb says it's from Alaska, but wasn't there a pantera album about that strain back in the day? I think texas makes more sense, being "great southern", but maybe the strain was named after the album and really is from ak...?

There's a lot to the story haha... I bought every strain he had around 2003. I believe I ordered them from Gypsy Nirvana. Shantibaba (Scott) was in jail at the time but was released shortly after. When I got the order all of the seeds were dead. Not a single one germinated. I contacted Shantibaba and he replaced all of them. Shortly after that he released Shit, so I ordered that also. I started working through the seeds. Lots of sativas in the bunch. There was one I actually let go 120 days and it still didn't seem finished. It grew like a vine. I had it tied to everything in my grow room keeping it under the light haha.... but out of all of them, the only thing I got that was really keeper material was Shit. And every one of them were identical. Really good stuff. Makes me sad to read that even that has changed.

Well how about start by listening to the man who did it tell you how he did it and why! Instead of taking random information and trying to shove it up on us? You talk like you know everything why are you even here? Go listen to Sam talk about running 20000 plants at a time working with Rob Clark and literally writing the book on breeding cannabis in the 70’s. So much you could learn if you would do actual research and listen!
You assume I did not watch it? Its not random information, as I stated there my opinions and experiences. Shove it up on you's? you can treat it just like everything else you read on the net. I thought someone somewhere, might at some time find it useful. I apologize if it got your panties in a bunch, clearly my typing of my thoughts needs rethinking. My copy has has a copyright of 1981 so you are probly right that is was being worked on in the 70's. My research and comprehension skills have never let me down yet, it is one of my favorite things to do. I joined to find out who was outing me.

Disagree, not impressed! Good luck!

We don't have skunks in Alaska. :D

One thing I know about Ak Beanbrains is that dude knows everybody it seems.
If it was from here he would probably have it.
Now he is the one that told me that Sunni Cheba has RKS.
Maybe that's where he got it?
I have yet to hear a good review about Sunni Cheba's RKS.

Really, no skunks?! Wow!
Todd McCormick grew it and said it’s there, will be doing work including preservation. He also has skunky skunk one from Sam through Seattle Greg.

No Skunks but we have many other weasel family cousins like Otters, Wolverine, Ermine and Martins.

Last I checked Cheba wanted an arm and leg for the RKS seeds.
That is cool that they are finding something Skunky there.

Hippy humboldt did an F2 of heimes original release of his rks. Said he selected two skunky females and a similar male. A lot of post from him saying it’s there; he was happy with it and said a lot of old school flavors are in it. Well just to run them and cross fingers. I got a pack off him for way way cheaper. Very worth it. Fidy doll hairs- 15 beans. Can’t beat that.
