Early skunks had no herms in about 90 I sprayed a 8 footer with gibberilic acid for weeks trying to get a few fem seeds it failed and ruined the plant. Its use had nothing to do with combining ability, it was its ability to increase potency. I have heard the original cheese could not be easily reversed or femmed either. Context in 79 smoked it first time, 85 was brought seeds of skunk to play with, almost ruined them in mid 90s, all most completely restored 08, 99 started research into origins and early mentions, last few years a few round about questions to sam. I am still listening and watching for tips and insight that might be useful to the improvement.
