Hey Sam, is Skunk 1 floral by most accounts?
I have a plant from seeds confirmed vintage 1979. Floral and
matures around 90 days. Frosty, not so body and awesome
clear giddy high.

So here you've said that it's disappeared from your seeds and other times you said you have it. From what I read here you don't have clones anymore of the Skunkier skunk?
Also if you do are you going to do terpene testing on it? or could you please so I have more of a map or direction to head toward. Surely with your love of terpenes and your research with them, it would make this an interesting experiment now you are able to? Have you already done this? Maybe since Cheese is supposedly from skunk 1 maybe you could show us this? Show the difference in terpenes? I would think this was very interesting and hope you may find it interesting enough to pursue if you can.
Also the skunk1 packet picture from sacred seeds 1981 I think says the skunk1 is Afghan, it mentions no other breeding, so was it first a pure Afghan that you had selected and you only started to bred it after 1981, as in mix sativa into it then?
DNA's is crappy shit, smells sweet like vanilla. It's a marketing ploy to call it R.K.S but if you notice its not "road kill skunk", it's "really killer skunk".
I wouldn't waste my time.
Here's San Diego Catpiss from the eArly 70's. She's around day 25-30. Musty is the only word that comes to mind. I hear around day 35-40 she pours on stench. I also hit her with gg4 balls and nanners so GG#4 x Catpiss is happening soon.
And the glue. Going to be a good combo These two.

@samtheskunkman , if your reading this , why would you not bring back rks for the people ? I'm not saying this as an insult or attack so please don't take it that way.
It's very likely you are the only person left with an online presence that can say they have the genes. If you died tomorrow future generations would never be able to experience it and all of us would lose a piece of history. It's clear you don't like it but many people would love it. Seems pretty selfish to me.
If you don't care about it why not pass it to a honest figure in the community to preserve and spread it around to the people for free ?

Get your post your past 50 and I will PM you. As you are new here you have not taken the time to read my posts on all the reasons why I do not like or care about RKS, also there are few honest figures in the Cannabis seed industry, many are in it for the money and really do not care about RKS except for that. Why should I help them make more money? PM me, and maybe read the posts why I feel this way? If $ was my focus I would have done it. May be you can make a list of the honest people that will preserve it and spread it around for free and would not just screw it up, they will need breeding skills. Unless they have smoked and grown an awful lot of my skunky RKS Skunk #1 they will not be upto it.
As for me being selfish, no I don't think so, maybe you do, so be it. It is not my job to do what others want me to do, I do what I like. I have it, and have little interest, but maybe RCC wants to do it for all of you? He like skunky skunk #1, and has access to my seeds if I die. It will not be "lost" unless like before, when just no one who had it cared enough to save a clone or seeds except for me who's fault is that?

i was not saying you were selfish only that it seemed that way. forget i said that it just came across wrong, im sorry. surely not trying to offend you, your a pioneer of cannabis and paved the way for guys like myself, believe me i respect and appreciate what you have done. im sure you have your reasons and i look forward to chatting with you to hear about it, ill work on my post count. im not new in the community just this one.
i did read some of your posts on why you bred the line to the sweet side but ill dig more through your posts. i cant speak for many people but i know my own heart and i am trustworthy and i could definitely spread it to the community. i already do it on a small scale. every seed i make is given away for free.

I think the real roadkill skunk is a mythical unicorn at best. I would bet that the "skunk" smelling weed we all know is mexican mids that were sprayed with artificial skunk scent to spook dogs and help smuggle it over he border.
This thread has been going on for years, not one single lead or verified story, it's all just baseless conjecture. Not a single person has found a plant with a true skunk odor in decades, not one person can honestly say they have grown it.

I would like to agree with you but I feel as though something else has taken place. There are many strains that reek of skunk when at a distance both on the alive plant and dried. But at a closer look the plants have different smells. The RKS from Cannacopia and a local clone only plant have shown me that the pure skunk spray are still alive and ticking. We are all entitled to our own opinions of course.

Are you serious? Or are you joking? You have never smelled a pre 1985 (RKS) Skunk #1? But many have, look at Mtn Nectar post #1953
https://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?p=6660474#post6660474
or the posts by my friends Rob's friend MadJag he grew my Skunk #1 in Arizona it was RKS as hell. Both of these grows are pre 85 Skunk #1, RKS as hell, most plants. Mtn. Nectar lived very close to me in Freedom where I made the seeds. But I saw Skunk #1 all over, in the bay area Santana used to buy it from a grower friend in Orinda.
I heard the Original Haze was just a myth, do you believe in Haze? It was just Mex I heard....
Not sure if you believe it is a myth or it has not been found in decades, which is it? They are not the same.......

Spread what? With what male? I have a moderately skunky female clone for 25 years, no male confirmed to yield mostly skunky off spring. So first you would need to find one and progeny test the off spring, I also have seeds that would need to be worked to stabilize the RKS. Have you ever grown Skunk #1 RKS? if not it may be impossible a task for you. What experience would you draw on, even Rob would need my help and he knows Skunk #1 pretty dam well, he has grown thousands and thousands of both the RKS and the sweet one, maybe more then anyone else I know..
And have you studied plant genetics or have years of experience breeding Cannabis? I have little faith in the ability of anyone that has not grown thousands of plants every year for decades, maybe I am wrong? Cannabis breeding requires selection, grow thousands and keep just a few, anything else is not real Cannabis breeding is it? Not to me anyway.

I just like to see ya get riled up. We know haze is not a myth, there is plenty of proof of it still around. Roadkill skunk, not so much. I just find it hard to believe it just disappeared with out a trace nothing but fuzzy old stories left. You'd think that because skunk is at the base of pretty much every modern strain that terp would pop up occasionally but even then I have never seen anyone find any other strain that stinks like a skunk either.
Did I get riled up enough?
And did you ever smoke a pre 85 Skunk #1? Or grow one?
It was the first strain i made with such a smell, I had many many that smelled strong like burnt tire, like rotten meat, like all kinds of foul shit, but Skunk #1 could be smelled for a mile and smelled like someone had hit a skunk with a car. Many growers asked me to tone the smell down, I instead made it sweeter like I liked, all with simple selections of very big numbers, no other genes were added it was all done by selecting pure Skunk #1 and seeding the sweetest and then later selecting clones from 20,000 Skunk #1 grown full size to evaluate them, RCC did it with me. We selected by smell with a requirement for high yield and good resistance to pests and disease.
Then we took the best 10 female selected clones and best 10 selected male clones and made all 100 combos, to grow out a 100 plant progeny test grow of each of the 100 that allowed us to determine the best combos of the best males and females, for potency, smell, taste, high, yield, consistency, All Skunk #1 seeds were made from those clones after that, really just 1 female and 1 male I still have all ten M&F. That is why if from me, they were the same, as 25 years ago. Remember that Skunk #1 was the most knocked off variety back then because it was very consistent and true breeding. People liked the males because they were dependable, they made almost anything better. Males are harder to select then females unless you do progeny testing on a large scale, but no one does.
