The Roadkill Skunk Fan Club

[Rosa Luxemburg]

This summer we have grown an old Kandahar line from the mid '70s. Very pungent greasy roadkill skunk smell. Pleased to have it back.

i have found a killer skunk smelling strain from Dr. Kripplings Incredible bulk. at the first part of this grow this year i neglected this strain and gave more attention to others and this lady has directed my attention towards her now. i just wonder what i will find when i buy a whole pack? i just got this as a single seed from herbies to test out and ive found a gem! this is her at 5.5 weeks in flower!

According to a Fox News warning about Skunk, Colorado has an abundance of skunkbuds.... its funny how the guy only talks about THC% when any cannabis connoisseur knows that it's the terpenes that dictates the effects of THC, CBD and other cannabinoids. They sound stupid.

Besides sugars or backstrap does anybody know of a product being sold that increases terpenes in your buds? i got to thinking about all of this and i am almost convinced that in the 80s-90s growers had something special they were using to maximize terpenes in their crops and that's why one lil skunky bud could reeked up an entire house.

hey skunkpuffs

med-man brand nutes has the industry first "lemon-lean" but this enhances lemonine, limonine and citrine. not skunk.

its specifically made for extraction artists but also works great as a natural preservative for long storage/aging crops.

dont tread on med!

Kind of lame design seeing how the Gadsen is a symbol of the American Revolution. Men fought and died for that flag now it is hijacked by a Canadian.

That'd be like me make a shirt with a star spangled maple leaf, it'd look pretty ridiculous don't you think?

terpinator will do the same

 

[SkunkyPuffs]

if its just sugars i don't want it, i'm not into "gimmick" products. samples could land a customer if said product delivers as promised.

i have been fighting a revolution since i was twelve, dont know where the hell you have been or doing?

med-man

lol

A revolution against mommy and daddy isn't the same.

Skunk spray and cat piss are totally different.

Cat piss is ammonia smelling and you can only smell it where the piss is.

Dead skunk smell is LOUD, you can literally smell a dead skunk about a 1/2 mile away. It is a very strong odor but so very light it can waft for great distances. Dead skunk smell is so complex, there is sour notes it's almost acidic to the nose, and at the same time is it so light and voluminous. It is quite literally unlike anything else on earth.

Dead skunk in the road also smells different then straight skunk spray. Dead skunk is much more aromatic and pleasing to the nose, straight skunk spray is not the same, its too concentrated and acidic to be pleasing.


I honestly feel that our best bet for finding this terp profile is to take a hard look at what we have then figure out how to put them together to form a true skunk odor. I feel that as far as RKS is concerned Skunk #1 is a complete waste of time. I think that what everyone is looking for probably has absolutely nothing to do with Skunk 1, it's like looking for an apple in a box of bananas it just aint gonna happen.

from talking to a buddy that does contract terpine ana;lysis, the real skunk smell isnt a terpine. its from another chemical in the plant. there are alot of smells that dont come from terps in herb. skunk, rotten garbage, baby poo, etc those arent terps.

Aren't ALL products sold to you "gimmicks?"

Don't use terpinator or medmans product. Just use essential oils, ginger, clove, lemongrass, cinnaMon, peppermint, thyme, rosemary, eucAlyptus, are all good choices. Your best bet for enhancing terpenes.

Maybe you should stop fighting this revolution & join it instead.
Just saying...

So you got anything to read, or what the chemicals are, or just a mate said?

Sounds like bullshit to me, but i'm listening....just like i listened to Steve back in Seattle tell me how they fed the plant bulb to the plants to make the chromosomes in the THC change and that's why that skunky weed was so potent compared to other varieties that were around..mostly piney smelling stuff or shit that didn't smell and you denied to smoke because it wasn't good enough....spoiled i was.

The Terpenes of Cannabis, Their Aromas, and Effects

...

3-Mercapto-2-Methylpentanal has a very heavy, sulfurous, savory, alliaceous, garlic odor with tropical fruit and cultured dairy nuances. As a flavoring, it has a sulfureous, alliaceous, savory flavor with cooked onion and sauteed garlic notes and tropical fruit nuances of mango and passionfruit.


3-Mercapto-2-Methylpentanol has a very strong, sulfurous, onion type aroma. It is used in seasonings as a food additive, but not used as a fragrance. It is recommended to be smelled in a 0.10 % solution or less due to its strength.


Mercaptan is the main odor constituent added to assist in the detection of natural gas (which in pure form is odorless), and the "smell of natural gas" is due to the smell of the mercaptan thiol used as the odorant.


β-Mercaptoethanol Is an extremely strong and persistent aroma that has all the basic rotten-egg sulfur-stink notes. It is an extremely intestinal and skunk-like odor.


Mercaptoacetic Acid has an ugly, sharp, acrid, skunk smell with plenty of endurance.


Allyl Mercaptan has a high strength, sulfurous and alliaceous, sauteed onion and garlic aroma with roasted, grilled and charred meaty nuances. It is used as a flavor additive and is described as alliaceous onion, garlic and leek with meaty bouillon savory nuances.


Benzyl Mercaptan has a high strength, sharp, alliaceous, sulfuraceous, onion, garlic, horseradish aroma with mint and coffee notes. It is a flavoring and is described as a green, leek, horseradish, cabbage, tomato and coffee flavor.


Butyl Mercaptan has an extremely strong, fetid, extremely foul-smelling odor, commonly described as "skunk" odor. It is structurally similar to several major components of a skunk's defensive spray but is not present in the spray itself. The scent of butyl mercaptan is so strong that the human nose can easily detect it in the air at concentrations as low as 10 parts per billion. Used as a flavor additive, it has a sulfureous, vegetative, savory meaty, garlic and onion taste.


Ethyl Mercaptan has a high strength, sulfurous, skunky odor with a slight fruity note.


Ethylene Mercaptan has a very high strength, sulfurous, skunky odor with a slight meaty note. It is so strong, it is recommend smelling it in a 0.01 % solution or less.


Furfuryl Mercaptan has a very strong, oily, fatty, roasted coffee, sulfurous skunky odor with a burnt match note. Used in flavorings, it is described as a sulfurous, roasted coffee, burnt match-like, rubbery, and slightly nutty flavor with eggy and savory meaty nuances.


Methyl Mercaptan has an extremely strong, sulfurous, decomposing cabbage, skunky aroma. It is used in flavorings and is described as sulfurous, alliaceous and creamy with a surface-ripened cheese topnote and a clean savory meaty depth.


Phenyl Mercaptan has a high strength, meaty, repulsive, penetrating, garlic, sulfuraceous odor with a rubbery, allicious backnote. Used in flavorings it is described as a meaty, phenolic taste with a burnt rubber sulfureous nuance.


Propyl Mercaptan has a high strength, alliaceous, natural gas, sweet onion, cabbage odor.


Thenyl Mercaptan has a high strength, roast coffee, fishy aroma. It is used as a flavoring agent where it has the flavor of coffee.

The spray of skunks consists mainly of low-molecular-weight Mercaptan thiols and their derivatives.

^ Heady not being smart but i did post a lot of these and more I think only 5-7 pages ago.

 

[KiefSweat]

mercaptans smell/taste like burnt rubber, the thiols and similar compounds found in a lot of afghans are probably what constitutes a lot of that aroma.

Excellent post!

It seems that most of those mercaptans have a sulfuric quality. It would make sense that a soil rich in sulfur is going to be productive for bringing out the most funk from your skunk.

I know that onion farmers do the opposite. They use soils low in sulfur to produce sweeter, less pungent onions.

Here is another review for Devil being skunky...

"This is the most diverse smelling strain I’ve even encountered. Very similar to the taste. From far away, there is no hiding it. Like walking around with a backpack full of dead skunks. Carrying around a 0.5 of this is like carrying around 7 grams of tuna or chem D. No joke. If left open in a small room, the room will smell extremely garlicky and skunky. Almost repulsive."
