No one has found it, it’s most likely a recessive gene that got bred out awhile ago.

I chose the auto because it my first grow in my little tent. 2' x 2' x 4.5'.
What I didn't know was it would stink of skunk.

The problem is people are sold on them being easier which is false and for all the wrong reasons. With autos you should be a seasoned vet to nail a plant you can't make mistakes on. They are unforgiving. Photos are where it's at top to bottom.

I haven't had any problems growing my auto. She's growing like a weed. I just lollypopped her yesterday.
I did finally solve the skunk smell. It was leaking out my inlet tubing, So I put a damper in it so it closes when my exhaust fan isn't running. I control my humidity with my exhaust fan.

Ultimately you can't dial it in either and knock it out of the park or find the right chemical cocktail or profile and keep it around. Something skunk on a plant that nobody wants is still a plant nobody wants but good fortunes to you. If it makes you happy

nothing is PROMISED with seeds. Not even germination lol.

This description is taken from the first pack “If you are looking to pop these with the expectation of finding a RKS, this is not the pack; but if you’re looking for a solid plant in the style of an Afghan Skunk look no further.”
The second pack is a skunk #1 bx.
So, probably not.

read his breeding thread.
the dude is quite meticulous and has a reputation for growing the skunky/chemmy stuff and being REALLY good at it.
he has a cult following like shoreline does.

Well, the afghan I’ve got, I have an afghan from world Of seeds I made S1,s years ago and every seed produces like a clone of the original mom. Dark green,fat leaves, beautifull big buds, and I also have a Columbia’s gold land race, I’ve tried crossing them and the offspring are very nice, but not skunk. I even tried throwing northern lights in the mix, again I get nice plants,nice producers good crystallization, but never found a lucky skunk. Musky for sure, not the skunk I remember from the early90’s.

Your f ing soooo right!
Try getting a mexican ideally Acapulco gold and crossing it to a afghan like balkhi or another nothern afghani thats proly gonna get you closer to it vs columbian i think the catpissy side of skunk comes from there (lumbo) but the acapulco x a rank afghan is where the real skunky and darker side is prime example take skunk#1 and real cali orange they share the same acapulco gold x mazari parent the only difference is theres thai in cali o rather than santa marta gold and besides the orange hashy notes theres defo some skunkyness to the real cali o on the exhale ime so thats my theory on it the hard part is finding a true pure Acapulco line similiar to whats in those id say
Some do guarantee germination as it should be but your right there few and far between unfortunately your right tho each seeds a lottery

We've always guaranteed not just germination but also guarantee to find keepers. Even replaced packs because of too many males.
No one else makes that guarantee.
And made breeder cuts available for those not wanting to pheno hunt.

can and will happily vouch for @shorelineOG .
Thats good you do that and i wish more would do the same but theres a few places that will do the same for germination however you probably are the only one replacing seeds cos of too many males in a pack etc granted il give you that man thats pretty good of you

Well I have Mazari sherif seeds, and Brazil Amazonia land races however acapulco gold isn’t in my collection, but I’ll look for it. I have orange bud from Dutch passion, love the orange hairs and citrus smell. I originally bought all landrace strains with plans on breeding then realized I don’t have the time and space for finding good males.. so I mostly use feminized pollen nowadays and create S”1s of all my favorites.

good to hear, I’m gonna have to look at your selection. Any recommendations? Do you have any purple strains that produce well indoors? And can you guaranty a purple plant? If so I wasted thousands of dollars on purple strains and skunks. Purple strains never got purple even granddaddy purple, purple #1 from Dutch passion was the only purple plant I ever got Beautifull color and smell of perfume but a waste of time as I’d be lucky to get a 1/2 oz off a plant. And so called skunk,,,,,sweet or musky but never dead skunk smell.

I recommend going with cuts.
Ohio Death Star for skunk.
Purple Punch for a purple strain.
Well be careful most folk sell reefermans apple pie as Acapulco gold thats a cross of Acapulco and nepalese highland barneys farm and some others sell it as that so u know
