I've tried the real skunk#1 and dude even in 1999 it was turning to pure shit. Literally one plant in 16 was excellent, the rest were pure hay. Looks like you and Capt Enigma are the only dudes finding real skunks.

Anyone that claims its readily available today has never seen or smoked the real deal, let alone grown it.
And since the OP wants to know where its at, who has it, etc - well, if you know, then post the info for the rest of the class.
Claiming your cousins-friends-brother-in-law has it wont cut it.
I do, however, have a bit of faith that a few select farmers are working to bring it back but as of right now that remains to be seen.
LOL @ Skunk # 1
If only it were that easy

right-"try #1 or #11 if thats your fancy" =lol, some love that fruity skunky thing
but seriously that road kill cat pissy is available, if that s your thing.
my thing is the pissy cat litter one, and its here full time. The only
girl threatening her awesomeness is gu's Jamoka, a real deal cat pissy wonder here.
not sure what seed stock my first pissy came from but its one of the normal packs of maybe "Mr Nice Shit or one
of his others always available

The real deal Holyfield rks I smoked in the late 80s didn't smell like cat piss. It smelled like a skunk and if you had a sack in your pocket everybody wanted to know who was holding out. Some of you commenting have never smoked it and it's obvious as fuck to those who have.

I had RKS smelling herb in VA back in the late 90s/early 2000s. It was lost due to security concerns. I"m pretty sure it was an afghani. Strongest high I've ever had and smelled like a skunk sprayed your house. Couch lock/ + the trippiest herb you've ever had. It still may be around the VA/NC mountains, but no one is going to admit to it until everything is legal in VA and NC. Those states will lock you up for centuries if you get caught

I would love to have just one good dobbie of the old Skunk that used to float around here in the east. Im like the OP I'd love to have a cut of it.

Well I'm not claiming shit. I know what my dad and uncle grew. And I know what seeds I have from my dad who had been growing for nearly 45+ years. I'm doing some crosses here in about a month for a forum member. As far as I'm concerned, what you think and say is irrelevant. Just like you. Kick rocks dude. You've been a member here since 2016. YOUR ARE COMPLETELY IRRELEVANT

Actually, I do believe somebody out there is holding some old beans that will do the trick. The locals here kept inbreeding the line until the late 90s/early 2000s but by then it had morphed into something very different and lost all its vigor they claimed. That was the end of it here locally.

I'm not claiming I have the original skunk or anything like that. But I do have about 20 seeds of a skunk from around '99 but it is no doubt fire and very very stinky even in veg. It's nothing like skunks you get from breeders from attitude and the like seed banks. I would take what I have over any of those. I have a huge seed collection. When my dad passed I got the entire collection. Probably somewhere in the neighbor hood of 1600-1700 seeds. Alot of them I have never even heard of. And I'm sure some of them are duds. But I can promise there's pure old skool genetics.

Sam Skunkman over at IC Mag is listing ancestral skunk regs. 60 bucks for 100 beans. The germination rate is reportedly low due to the age of the beans. Maybe the Holy grail is there.

I was just on there reading that post. Said it's like 10% germ rate. So that still kind equals out though. U can get other genetics 60 bucks for 10 seeds usually. So you buy 100 get 10% germ rate. That's 10 beans.

You feelin OK?
My comment had nothing at all to do with you. Project that shit onto someone else!
And I cant be too irrelevant or you wouldn't have bothered replying.
Maybe next time try reading for comprehension instead of speed.

I'm the one who said uncle and cousin n shit. So i took your comment as directed towards me. If it wasnt sry. But if it was still kick rocks. It is what it is

Right, and if you're father grew it (as mine did) then you know its no longer readily available. And as I also stated in that comment "I do, however, have a bit of faith that a few select farmers are working to bring it back but as of right now that remains to be seen." Meaning, you'd have about as much chance finding it in pack of Skunk #1 than you would finding Jimmy Hoffa. Ya dig?
Its gonna take hundreds of plants and a farmer with an eye for good selection to stabilize it and bring it to market.
As far as time on RUI? Referencing irrelevant shit like that is nothing more than a fallacious appeal to give validity to ones opinion.

Hey guys. I have a friend who got some of the old Sam the Skunkman seeds, as well as some shanti private stash {which has since been sold to the public I hear} I'm not sure how many he popped, but it was a lot. He picked the best male and female of each and made some Shit/ Skunk crosses. I have a few of them, and started some earlier this month. Having never grown or smoked the old school stuff, I won't know how close mine will be. But they will be smellier than anything I had before.

You'll have lots of folks in the shadows pullin for him to succeed.
I've posted about this before, but my brother found coffee cans in an old footlocker after my father passed that probably have good genetics but they're so old neither of us are confident we can get them germ. Only one can has a legible label. "78 Red" whatever that could be. Plus, they're kinda sentimental to us so without the room to really dig in and be able to hold onto what we find, we've just left em on a shelf at camp.
Maybe someday....

I have lots of old seeds that were ruined in the tragic tripped breaker incident. 25-30 decent strains and 2 or 3 that I really liked. So far none of them have sprouted.

That really sucks. I always worry about that shit when we're at camp for the weekend. One of these days I'll buy a back-up genny.
And that's what I'm afraid of should we try to germ these old seeds. I don't think they ever saw the inside of a fridge. They'd still be in that footlocker stashed away had my brothers horse not thrown a shoe that day. He was digging around in there looking for a rasp when he found them. I feel the chance of viability has gotta be extremely low this many yrs later
