Yes that is true. And yes he will need lots or really good luck to find what he's looking for.As far as i understand, RSC did the last Mazar i Sharif-repro with a small seed stock ..think they used Mazari seeds gifted back to them By their own customers
Now, this doesn't automatically mean that the new stock isn't any good, but it kinda put me off.
You can read about it on their helpdesk at another canna-forum
Another thing..
Not all Mazaris are extremely skunky, like the one Sam Skunkman used in his Skunk#1, so you'd need a good bunch of seeds to find the skunky ones
I'm currently trying to source the genetics to remake the skunk.
I'll be going the dank skunky route, not the sweet.
Finding a good Colombian and the Acapulco gold is the hardest part.
Anyone with any tips or ideas, pm me.
mk ultra has that roadkill skunk to it. ive read karma saying how u can cross 2 strains that contain the genetics your looking for and find the recreation in the offspring.... seeems to be a little easier than starting from scratch...
just to be clear. id take mk ultra and another skunky strain like shoreline and let them get busy...

But to be honest in the same seed batch from Afghanistan you will find many phenos, remember they may have thousands of females that the seeds came from, as well as thousands of males hitting every one of the females, so that is a lot of possible combos.....

No one made feminized seeds until after 1990, I selfed the MazarXColombian hybrids to other MazarXColombian hybrids. This was in the early 70's.

I have a good feeling we will see some rks in the next 5 years . there are some top notch breeders working on it now. There might even be a cut still rolling around time will tell .
aint gonna happen in our lifetime...unless sam makes it happen. loved ol skool skunk. all time fave. stuff just dont smell as good anymore. getting nostalgia now...time to roll one...
I have been following this skunk hunt for 25 years, I have to say Halloween is the best time of the year to look. We used to get old merch bricked up bag seed plant it and come fall never a colored hair besides white. Immature grass tasting (leaf) airy buds. Luckily around the same time we started getting great hash from middle east circa 1989. Then there was the sieved blonde hash everyone called the Lebanese!
The Acapulco gold came our way much earlier along with that stuff tied on a stick from Thailand in the 80's.... The thai was hallucinogenic and much fun in large doses ....more than couch locked red eyed take a nap and wake up with the munchies and cotton mouth afghani (it is nice for nap time). The nice part was it the (afghani) added bulk and early finishing!
I had the old skunk seeds for years and lost them....I have been looking into getting them back.
Where do you guys upload your photos?
I must disagree oh no sir..........i must say your wrong. See where i live i know for a fact some oldschool heads moved away from "certain area's" and moved up by me to escape (whatever it was at the time) that was bothering them and a few that made the move back in the 50's and 60's brought skunk here. It comes around once or twice a season and is ALWAYS like it used to be. These folks dont even have a phone line, let alone go to a seedbank! So i imagine if someone could convince some of the great varietals hoarders to get off some stock its DEF FEASEABLE!
Corky your Colombians look awesome!
So far Corky has the lead on the recreation projects!
