Dankwolfs rks breeding project and breeding info discussion

[Oneeyewille]

The breeders retail has some of the pre selection ancestor skunk1 from the 70s 80s looks like might be the last of the original stock and probably once in a lifetime deal . for those looking for that stank stank burnt tire skunk��

With Cannabis becoming legal more and more as time goes on. The chances of seeing the RKS and other insane smelling weed looks more
promising than ever. If people are not worried of getting busted then it will encourage more of them to try to breed and grow stinky plants.

Always need to remember the distinction between original Skunk and Sam's Skunk #1, which is a hybrid that used Skunk but is not Skunk.

When you say original skunk, are you referring to, like, the first broad leafs that were grown in the US? And some would say ' stinks like a skunk' or a certain ' variety '?

People cant seam to understand this so thank you for making it clear to understand .

Skunk 1 is a great strain but has little to do with and maybe nothing to do with the rks (or what ever you want to call it ) that i and many are in search of .

Do you happen to have a reference stating as much?
This is news to me.

Also, if the comment was in reference to S.Skunkmans beans for sale by Breeders Retail, it needs to be realized that the seed on offer is an OP of the 70s/80s Skunk line previous to it being taken across the pond. Sam, himself, said that the line would contain the broad leaf RKS types in one of these many RKS threads.

But I'm seriously interested in a reference to Skunk v Skunk #1.

The way I understand Sk RKS and SK #1 are the same genotype .
Bred by phenotype to create a true breeding sweet SK AKA SK#1 .

They are both hybrids . One line bred for sweet terps and an uplifting buzz . RKS was stupefying . And not bred for type .

Thanks for sharin

Sam said in this thread he remembers walking through the fields that made those beans killing the undesirables and that they are in there in low %. "paraphrasing"
Worth a look see.

Thank you to all that have and are contributing.

Thank you to all that have and are contributing.

This is the most comprehensive/detailed thread on the presute of a true rks that i have seen . many questions have been answered many theories theorized.thank you to all that have taken the time to contribute in a possitive useful way . i belive many will be and have been helped by this thread .

I think your right but I believe he said that the undesirables were poor growing runts or bad performers and that he wasn't selecting for smell or taste yet. I believe he said that at the time he was looking to increase/improve potency. Also that he walked passed rks types in the acreage of flowering plants.

I'm going off of memory so obviously..... don't quote me! lol but pretty sure.

The rks that i know was a great single cola yeilder perfect for no veg sog . this strian was to the best of my knowledge 30 years old as of early 2000 and to the best of my knowledge referd to as "skunk" by thoes who grew it . lime green huge clayx' with encrusted leafs around each bud that would have been poor choice to remove . hairs were sparce and deep/vibrint red . buds were oily/grease but could stick to a wall for weeks . stem was hallow and lacked crystals . buds were shaped in a triangle. Buds were thick and fluffy . smoke was thick and vary expanding .smoke was thick in the air on exhale and would not disapate like todays strains. The resin left behind in s pipe could be poured out due to ithigh oil content.the high hit hard encompassing your hole brain and slowly hiting full body aswell after 15 min to the point of heart palpitations and after 30 min you vision would be impered sometimets seeing frames .it had levals to it that lasted 4 hours roughly . the bigeist differance from todays buds was the fact it was coverd in thc glands that had no white stalks on leafs and oil content was offthe charts.

Hint: vacume packing can be a vary helpfull part of the cureing process if timed right . play with it and you will see what i mean . i promise if done right it will up your end quailty and freinds will be asking whats your new strain lol.

^^^ sounds like a description of an afghan of some sort
maybe no need to over think it, just the right blending of the afghan genetics

My thoughts excatly.

I am more then happy with my female now comes the hard part . selcting a proper male or five of the right strian.

I took me 14 + years to find a female that will contribute what I believe is the hard part . lets hope the male can be found in a more reasonable time lol.

Not true... I did not use anything called Skunk, Skunk #1 was a hybrid of three landraces.

(C. Gold x MiS)F2 x A. Gold.

But Phylos doesn't show Skunk #1 as being directly related to any of the three parents used.

What f'gen are the Skunks that were sent in to Phylos.

Interesting, so what is Skunk made of then?

Or does Phylos just need to test some more Colombian and Mexican landraces?

I mean I suppose we are assuming that all Colombians for example are homogenous and related, but there may be totally unrelated strains in different parts of Columbia.

If Phylos can't join the dots between a plant's known pedigree.

Then maybe the entire thing Phylos database is based on wildcards.

It sure casts a doubt on the rest of the data when a discrepancy of such magnitude occurs.
