No, I have not grown pure Skunk 1, only smoked a lot of it coming from the NL, then there was the Cheese hype, which is a common known fact to be a pheno of Skunk No 1, and I grew Cheese and Blue Cheese and did not like it very much, because of the side effects....as I said, there a million versions on the market and unless you got a clone from back in the day or seeds from Sam himself (i have f.ex. grown sleestack x skunk Haze handed to me by Sam the Skunkman himself) ,it is hard to compare to todays seed versions from different breeders...You smoke plenty ? Did you grew some ?
