Pretty sure NL Greg said Sam`s Afghan in another post.
NL #1 predates Nevil and the Seed bank by a few years .

NL Greg smuggled the NL#5 cutting into NL in a terrarium . Trimmed the leaves he said . The other NL`s Nevil got were seeds .

The Haze AC male passes a pine type terpene . Haven`t found the Hz A type terpenes in seeds made from it .

C5 x Doors , AG13 x HPHz X Haze AC .

Nordle was low odour in my exp . Hash smells .

Thanks for sharin

EB .

Can you elaborate on nl#1 ?
The rks i seek has a skunk cabege/hash/earthy/ pine smell in about that orderd.also expanded in the lungs more the any strain sence (i have had some well grown good strians sense). It was soft fluffy leafy aperance and feel yet was perfectly dens (no crushed trichoms ) .it was vary oily sticky unlike todays strains regardless of being bone dry or not . buds looked lime green with red hairs sparsely about (1 hair per pocket) the red was vary intense and vibrant. Large clayexs with no preme seeds stems were hallow appered to have a kush in its genetics due to triangle (pyramid) shape to the buds yet clayexs were large unlike kush that i have seen .Price was set all the way up (no brakes). Was vary prevalent up intill 01 02 . any thoughts ?
Thank you for your input

I feel nl#1 is the key to my search and yes nl#1 before the seed banks . the Afghan i am looking for would have been around the pnw in the 70s even if it was not in production for the general public . also the Afghan/nl#1 i seek was breed in the north west side of the pnw . it also went under many names and skunk was almost never used for its discription.

I don't think you'll find the RKS in a pure NL strain to be honest.

I grew some Sensi NL for the fact that they are low odor and easy to hide.
I did grow NL#5 from the BC Seed Company in 97 and really liked that one.
One female I had glistened with resin and smelled amazingly like a spruce
tree. I wish I had seeds that only made that pheno.

I'll have to try growing some more NL one day from the seeds I made of the Sensi version.
I find they all produce some pine aroma though.

I have tried nl#2. Lighter green seemed to be a two way cross with out hybreed vigor low oder afgahan woody/hash flavor,
nl#5 dark green sativa in the mix for sure .would say it apppered to be a 3 way cross fast flower set no hybreed vigor Pine/hash/earthy
lastly #9 differnt then the others large clayex and less afgahan influance looked more like the strains of today in structure did not care for this one could have passed it off as gg4 or gsc .

My memory is not perfect this was many years ago so could be off a bit .

Nl#1 as far as i understand was a clone only so no seeds can exesist unless they are s1 and if they arre s1s they would not display the profile i want . whats ypur view on nl#1?

I never got to play with the NL#1.

Dutch Passion used to sell a strain called "Oasis" which was really NL#2.
If they had regular seeds of those right now I would get some.

Saw some RKS from a small remote town deep in the emerald triangle as late as 2003-2004. The whole town would reek like RKS. Although that was the last time I saw it. I do think/hope its still around and pester some of the old timers about it, with no luck. Was talking to a guy who has been growing here for the last 50 years, gonna bring it up next time he gets chatty.

It was very similar to Dankwolf's description. Light green, tight, long, nugs covered in extremely sugary leaf with a very soft feel while being dense. The resin itself was very mature looking, gold/brown while the leaf extremely bright green.

Extreme smell, and extreme flavor on exhale. Would make you break out in a sweat. My stepmom was buying ounces of the sugar trim to smoke, had some small nugs in it also. The trim was better than most buds I see today.

I talked to the guy that would drop the trim off to my stepmom, he claimed they used grass fertilizer to grow it.He also warned me they didn't let their rotweiller's chew bones so that the dogs teeth would be dull and inflict more pain. Maybe the native soil was full of minerals but the fertilizer was nothing special. My personal opinions change all the time, and I have gone in circles and back. I prefer to use organics, but really I think its more about using the correct amounts at the correct times, organic or synthetic.


Mid to late 90's, near the central coast I would see batchs of Skunk x Bubblegum that would wholesale at 5600 a pound if you were lucky enough to know the guy. Came from a really old hispanic guy, he was probably in his 60s at that time. No evidence beyond my opinion but this stuff was also RKS x Original bubblegum. Smelled so strong lead to my buddy getting busted. Although the nugs were a little bit different because of the Bubblegum, they actually we very very similar to the skunk I described at the start of the post just a bit sweeter. Eventually it was crossed to Trainwreck, which completely changed it. It was still god like but just an entirely new flavor/smell and look. Never saw the old stuff again.


Enough rambling, and I have probably said this in a couple threads already. Besides Sam's stash, I imagine and hope someone is still hoarding it. Probably gets cropped and shipped to a single guy in some state that pays a gross amount for it.

Would be great if it got shared freely, but that is just not how this whole thing works and has worked. Most of the legendary stuff is kept in peoples families, and you really cant blame them. You hand out a family heirloom and some random guy ends up becoming famous and never looks back. Its sort of funny you see breeders or seed poppers fight over who made what, and what belongs to who... nobody ever gives credit to the old farmers of afghanistan, columbia, mexico... You think Afghani is so ghani just because it was a isolated landrace? I imagine they grew huge populations over tons of generations selecting for hash traits. Who knows what other tribes or cultures bred it before them or in other parts of the world over history. I imagine there would be no OG Kush if it wasn't for some old hash farmer 100's of years ago.


Good luck on the project, hope you get something really skunky! I still have my nose peeled for it to and have some hope!

Mr^^

Thank you for your usfull post . the rks i spoke of was lost by some one but a cut had leaked out and supposedly will return home . its funny the cut i speak of came from a person not a buisness yet the person that has the cut (luckly ) is playing games lol. Like ypu said people are selfish waist of space for the most part . but i will say with 100% certainty that if i get the chance it will be gave to all to grow and be passed with one restriction to passing it out to companys in its pure form . why you might ask ..... Well its simple me and the many other nobodys No names that helped make cannibis whatvit is today deserve these rare genetics to appreciate in there true form .

No more "supper dupper og kushy glue dreams" lol save that bottle necked low yeilding 45 min high for pharma and MR suit and tie .

In my short grow history of 14+ years i have never seen so much bullshit and striat lies . but got to give them some credit for the amazing marketing strategies. I hope i am not the only one that remembers pot that was more then a 45 min of ya i am high but deffently not stoned lol.

Thank you for the clearafaction ,being striat forword and to tge point .I will see what i can do as far as locating herbie . i would have guessed tacoma but i am heading to vancover some time in the near future and why not make a road trip out of it lol . i am pretty sure i got a freind from high school that works for sun light supply in pdx that might save some time .

All the northern lights that i grew were from clone . i also grew out a " trinity" clone from the same source . 14 + years ago . i had never even heard of seed banks back then . the only way a person in my small one light town got strains was from old back woods guys . back them every part of the county had its own genetics .

NL #1 predates Nevil and the Seed bank by a few years .

NL Greg smuggled the NL#5 cutting into NL in a terrarium . Trimmed the leaves he said . The other NL`s Nevil got were seeds .
According to some posts by Nevil and NL Seattle Greg, originally Nevil got the different NL-lines in seed form
..and that he later went to US to get their NL5-clone, but he didn't like it as much as his own NL5 cut.
Here's a quote from NL Greg:
[FONT=Calibri said:
NL Seattle Greg[/font]]
Aloha, The 11 packets of seed Nevil received were graded the #1 ,2, 3, were 100% indica, #5 the clone I traded Herbie Nelson for was 50% Afghani & 50% Hawaiian sativa. The others #6-#11 were crosses with Columbian, Thai, and Mexican Sativas. Nevil then sold out to Ben, became partners with Arjan, and then hooked up with the Mr. Nice Crew.
http://www.mrnice.nl/forum/203653-post38.html

Here's Nevil replying to..
"Ok.. so it sounds like on purchase all the nl lines were actually different seedlots of the NL family... not cuts."
Nevil said:
That's right OS. I did go to the States later and pick up the original U.S. NL5 mother and it was as it was described to me, part Thai. But my NL5 didn't seem to have any Thai influence. I spent a lot of time analysing the NL lines, in particular NL5.

I only saw evidence of two indica male lines in the NL series and that was NL1 and NL2. My best bet was that NL5 was a combination of NL1 male line and US NL5 female. I guessed that US5 was 50% NL2. Northern Lights 2x5 was the best that I could do staying within the line (pure NL).

Northern Lights changed the face of cannabis genetics (and many a smoker), but it was mostly through NL5. You've got to marvel at fate for dropping that one extreme plant into the lap of a budding seed breeder.

Also, we now know it's Hawaiian in NL5, not Thai.

About the Afghanis Nevil got from Sam..

At first i only found a post where Nevil talks about Garlic Bud being used in Black Domina, but then i found another post where he mentions some other afghan he got from Sam, which is unrelated to Afghani#1, that he used in Black Domina. So there was actually two versions of Domina, according to Nevil.

But because he said this "Afghan from Sam" was low-potency, it makes me think there is this "Sam's Afghan" in Domina, cause people report some plants being weak in potency
Sensi Seeds also mention "Afghani SA" as one parent of Black Domina, so could the SA stand for "Sam's Afghani"??..i dunno.

In this post Nevil also mentions all the NL-lines he originally received were in seed form, not cuttings.
Nevil said:
The NL2 was IMO a NL version of Kush. More weight and that puffed up indica type of bud that NL5 had. The taste was very similar to the Kush4 that I remember as coming from Ortega. (correct me if I'm wrong Jim).The Ortega type was more what I would describe as a typical landrace although fairly consistent. I used an F4 NL2 male over the Kush4 to produce a vigorous hybrid that was true to type. It was the Kush4 that made me realise that the NL2 was primarily a Kush. The NL2 needed some fresh blood as the F5 wasn't as good as the F4. I had planned to take the Hybrid back to NL2 and as the NL2 had already been released I expected others would do the same. I must be living in my own world as it doesn't appear that anyone saw the connection that seemed obvious to me.
I never got any Kush from Sam. I did get another Afghan from him that was unrelated to A#1. It a was coarse large seeded variety with big calyxes, but lacking potency. I used that in the Black Domina (25%).
All the NL lines were from seed not cuttings, as was the Kush4.
http://www.mrnice.nl/forum/83317-post516.html

Nevil said:
Ortega and NL lines are unrelated.
To be honest, I can't remember exactly which father was used in the bulk of the seeds.
NL2x Sams Afghan was one, Ortega x Sams Afg was another, both were later substituted with a son of Garlic bud for better yield (NL2xGarlic?).
I'll give you the tip that the quality came from the mother.
N.
http://www.mrnice.nl/forum/83607-post525.html


Here's the post where Nevil says there's Garlic Bud in Domina

Nevil said:
Black Domina was a 4 way indica hybrid I made for Sensi. I was going for big seeds/bracts with large resin globules on stalked glands. People seemed to want bigger yields, so I substited Garlic bud for one of the indicas. I don't know what has been happening at Sensi since then.
I liked the version with the big seeds and large stalked glands.

I also had another indica which would "shed" its resin at the drop of a hat. I was going to cross that into the Black Domina. You can see where I was going with this!

Ah well, it never happened and such is life.

Don't fret, it's still in the land of what dreams may come!

Nl#1 as far as i understand was a clone only so no seeds can exesist unless they are s1 and if they arre s1s they would not display the profile i want . whats ypur view on nl#1?



I think NL1 was a seed-line originally, but that Nevil used only male(s)


Here's what Nevil said about NL1
..and this is the last info-bit i have saved about NL lines ..along the quotes i have already posted in this thread.


Nevil said:
When I first got the NL varieties, there were 8 types, 1-8.
They came with descriptions, which I published in my catalogue. These descriptions may not correlate with what later developed. The original intention was to purchase seeds from the US NL growers. It didn't work out and supply dried up. I kept the lines separate and inbred them. NL1 and NL2 stabilised into distinct types and NL5 only produced one unique individual.
NL1 was a full blood Afghan indica. One thick main stem, dark green leaves, modest yield with nuggety buds, a little coarse with good resin production, which when ripe went golden. The high was narcotic. The seeds ranged from tiny to massive. I used to love the big ones. Large fat heavily and darkly mottled seeds. Selecting for these seeds made this Afghan even coarser. It was fun to show people these seeds.
The best line of NL1 actually came from the smaller seeded types, better high and bud structure.
There weren't many pure indica lines around in those days. Big Bud, Hash Plant and G13 were pure indicas in my estimation, but were cuttings. NL1 was the only good pure Afghani male line I had.( there was Sams Afghani#1, but that was toxic in a bad way) The NL2 was a Kush.
I put the NL1 out there as a pure strain. I wasn't popular. People would tell me, "give me the pure strains", but if it cost them 10% of their yield they would complain, well try 50%.
The pure indica hybrids were more popular. NL1 x HP and NL1 x G13 were the best. At least people could use the word pure (very popular). But they were good!

I expect that a lot of people holding what they believe to be pure indicas today, would find, if the truth be known, that the sire line traces back to NL1.

Not sure if you guys follow MrSoul and DukeDiamond_VA of Brothers Grimm, but theyve been developing RK Skunk (they received from Skunk_VA himself) for the last 8 months, to put out in seed form, and its due to drop this autumn. When asked about the nose and smoke on it, he claimed, authentic, LOUD, RKS smell... Ive followed these guys work from early cannabis forum sites across different forum iterations over the years and believe theyre the best hope (not named skunkman) of reproducing the EXACT old RK skunk line, we're acustomed too. Check out the interviews on the podcast called "The Pot Cast", they interview Skunk_VA, MrSoul, and DukeDiamond and they all talk about the skunk line and how they still have it (this podcast is fantastic and worth the listen in general if you love cannabis). The skunk bud pics MrSoul has been posting to his FB, look like the real deal, late 90s skunk I got as a kid. Here are a couple of MrSouls FB pics of Skunk action, hope you dont mind me sharing them here:

Next, there is peculiar Albert Walker plant that is a clone only cut from the Portland area where I live now that is funky. A breeder named OneEye crossed it with OG Kush, then with chemdog 91 and created "Dog Walker OG" (Albert Walker OG x Chemdog '91) which is the most accurate skunky/fuely flavor closest to RKS ive had the pleasure of growing. Ive been breeding this line for the last 3 years ,to isolate the particular phenotypic terp trait through selfing, and once I isolated it, I then ooutcrossed it to different pre95 Afghanis ive been sourcing from old local hippies. A fun personal project that hasnt yielded me the exact skunk smell and aroma yet, but I have a putrid baby poop pheno that puts your dick in the dirt, has flavor for days, and stinks out a building. The method to my madness Is taking samples to get the terp profiles tested at the cannalabs here to log in my notes. I found over time any skunky funky phenos I had were high in myrcene, limonene, alpha-pinene and beta-pinene terpenes (almost exclusively). Ive had better luck chasing terpene profiles then strain combos. I find funky potential parents, terp test them, then see if they have the profile I want. Im trying to breed plants high in only those terps and see if i can strengthen or increase the percentage of those particular terps. Some pics of this project:

Skunk VA is the Chem 91 cut. SkunkVa was the name of the guy that distributed the cut.

As far as anyone knows skunkVA chem 91 is just that chem 91 not skunk.

I'm always skeptical of Mr Soul, I think he shit one his old reputation when he came back a name stealing liar basically.

He steals names of old strains and does new non related renditions and tries to pass them off as the original then he asks rediculous prices for everything.

The guy is a walking get rich quick scheme and tbh his c99 looks bogus.

Most likely super Skunk [ Skunk #1 x Maple Leaf Indica ]
RKS was a 70s / 80s phenomenon .

Dunno if I have heard of RKS coming from Nevil . I think he got his seeds after Sam had res -selected .

He did say he thought MLI was archetypal Skunk .

The guy is a walking get rich quick scheme and tbh his c99 looks bogus.

It could be chem 91, I can't wait to find out! All I know from the interviews with DukeDiamond, and from following him on various forums he seemed to know the difference between Chem and Skunk. Come autumn we will see, my pallette hopes they hit it on the nose.

I respect MrSoul. He's contributed a lot to the canna scene and, from interviews and his social media he seems genuine. 150 definitelt, isnt cheap but with so many choices for seeds now, if he has a demand for it at that price point, who am I to judge? Plus, I bet if you were sick and needed it for beyond rec proposes, they'd oblige.. but there are plenty of C99 threads for that debate.

My intial post was just my two cents on the skunk hunt. It's my favorite flavor profile and I hope someone finds it and shares it.
