It's sad that Neville passed away a few years ago. I don't know who has the truest, most original Skunk#1 today, I've ordered seeds from a few sites and I'll see which ones are at least close. There are of course many people looking for it, but there are also people chasing almost comical/caricatures of it......."death and rotting meat" kind of descriptions. I get the desire to crank up the language, I don't think anyone actually wants their weed to smell like dead old fish or bum's feet........if these words are used as "aspects of", then sure.......

I liken it to wine. Sometimes you'll see a Cabernet described as having "notes" or "undertones" of leather and tobacco. But I don't think anyone wants their wine to smell like the bottom of a shoe and an ashtray..... ;)
I think these guys have the only real Skunk #1 today: https://agseedco.com/

They're one of the ones I ordered from, there are a couple of others that could be close.......we'll see, I plan on doing my first indoor run this week. My first one in nearly 30 years........I'm psyched to say the least. The irony is, I don't have weed nearly as often as I used to. Maybe one or two hits a week, an occasional edible....

I have original seedstock
But not willing to play until a nice clean room
I had quite the seed vault.
BOEL genetics as far back as '68
Landraces from everywhere.
Old lines many thought were lost.

I kept waiting til I could get a warehouse with climate control.
Til I could get perfection
The fire came and took em all before I could ever achieve that

The Mendo Joe Skunk that OSG has is legit.
I had a few generations of OP from that line and you could find any flavor in there.

They went missing after I spent a summer at Liontree and was foolish enough to bring my seed vault with me

Luckily, I had sprouted a bunch of seeds beforehand, so I was able to breed those. Still, lost pounds of seeds worth millions.
Im back in NY restarting my life and restarting breeding. I had to take 2022 off just to decompress

Do you mean their "old school skunk"? I don't see one called Mendo Joe......if I'm looking right..
