who is this NDF?


and do you guys really think this RKS is one strain? I mean I don't know but I seem to hear alot of various reports that seem to only have in common stinky weed being called skunk and it being good.

People will get this stuff, start growing it, get it into flower and start looking for advice on what to do with the smell,lol!

I once found an outdoor grow in the woods...15 plants. We smelled it, it took 30 mins to walk to it! The smell was like a rope tied to the plants...all we had to do was follow it!

Mabey thats what happened...to smelly! :sasmokin:

Thats seems to be the dominating theory about RK. It was just too uch of a security risk to continue working with. But IMO anyone who actively seeks out RK, such as many of us in this thread, knows what they are in for and should be properly prpared. I know I wouldnt mind spending some extra cash to be able to grow some.

Great thread T2U, we shoulda got this going a long time ago :D
Take care everyone

Since this is a club T2U. I thing we should get a cool looking Skunk Coon Hat, with a cool hand shake. lololol. I do think a Skunk hat would be cool. I could see it now. Us meeting at a Cup all wearing a Coon type Skunk hat. People would be thinking where crazy. Nice thread, now. Where the hell is this cut.

hi I know this is common knowledge, but could this be skunk #2
sensi' shiva shanti:
.: This multiple Cannabis Cup Winner stays compact and produces thick, large, solid buds of dark green color that have the classic 'garlic Bud' pungent, sour skunk aroma with a truly smooth sour skunky flavor and a gentle relaxing body sensation.

this is what it says about shva shanti #2
Shiva Shanti II has all the beautiful qualities as the original Shiva Shanti with less of the pungent "garlic bud" aroma. A medium strength 4-way Indica hybrid that stays short and compact and produces large, thick, solid buds with a lighter aroma than Shiva Shanti.

I once grew out some of the shiva shanti #2 and it was very Rkill . has anyone tried this, i am thinking to revisit the shiva shanti #1.
I grew their super skunk and got all hermis and have been hating on sensi for a while?

RKS man I would love some of that. I omly come across it once in my life, but damn. It leaves an impression. Me, and my buddy stopped at another friends. He had made a pickup of some weight. He also happened to get his hands on an 1/8th of some RKS. First thing I said when we walked in was "Damn you got a skunk in the house?". I literally thought a skunk pissed in his house. He breaks out a bag. Nice, and looked huge for the wieght. He had a roach that he smoked with us. Got three or four hits off of. I was already high on some damn good weed. I never in my life felt a pick up above a high already in place like that. I don't know how the lady that lived above him didn't ever call leo on that one..Damn it may stink, but I definatly enjoyed it. Would love it if Sam, or someone with this cut would bring it out for us all. Definatly would like it over the Sweet skunks...peace...

well if its not one strain than are your just looking for stinky weed? I don't understand and I did read the thread thats why I'm asking.

is it a skunk your looking for? was it ever a skunk? was it ever one common strain?

if your searching for it maybe it would be good to articulate what IT is instead of just "RKS stinky weed like in the 80s". because that won't get your anywhere. there is lots of stinky weed and lots of stinky weed from the 80s.

I personaly am not looking for one strain or one cut called 'RKS', and i don't think anyone here really is..

I went over alot of this in the 'What is Skunk' thread...

We're (or at least I am) looking for any strain or cut that has a RKS smell, or a very strong skunky smell.. It could be a new hybrid, and old cut, or a rare pheno of an established line, i don't care, it just needs to fit the smell/taste criteria and be decently potent, which skunk strains usualy are.

I'm sure there's a few growers who found a special pheno like this without realising it's importance, i'm sure of it..

All I know, is once you'd found it or smoked it, you will know what we are talking about and looking for..


Any stinky weed won't do... there's plenty of reakers out there that won't fit the bill.. It has to reak, and reak like skunk, a real skunk... that's it, it's as simple as that. :smile:

Here T2U, found this hat after linking you to the first site. This one is better and it's cheap. Not to meantion, it's totally fake. Not to upset any aniaml lover's out there. It's made from man made fiber's. I'll pick one up and let you know what GDW think's of it when i jump in bed,lololol. She's going to FREAK out for sure. lolol Should be a good joke. Now, figure out the hande shake and where almost there. lololol
Later guys,

thank you bean counter. see thats different than what I know alot of people are looking for.

There was one popular commercial strain in the south in the 80's that was an indica sativa hybrid. famous for that skunk smell, and small pink hairs but nearly hairless buds


I don't know where it is.

but if what your looking for is as simple as skunky weed I'd reccomend daywrecker which is extremely musty and pungent and a half gram will stink up your car for days or anywhere its placed. cross that with an afghani #1 papa with that animal musk smell and I think you'll have what you wanted.

if your looking for a skunky skunk I have in fact found the parents of skunky skunks in TFd's pure. extremely wide variation and its in there.

but if your looking for that one particular strain for the south in the 80s I don't know what to tell you.

and what you guys are looking for really isn't articulated too well. T2U take your own advice and read the thread. thats why I asked.

Stinkys not the word for it...RANK is more like it! Skunk is smelly enough but coupled with rotting carcuss!
It was there and then it was gone, We did not call it RKS... it was the original skunk to me. And then everyone got confused about what it was.
They started calling sweet stinky weed skunk :confused: I always tell them, that what their smoking is not real skunk! But... the kids these daze!

I always took for granted that it would be around forever...then poof!

hey motaco, I hear ya, with all of our personal differences a simple verbal description isn't a great indicator to someone reading what exactly we are looking for..

I have grown pure/skunk#1 (sam's) and didn't find anything close, and neither has anyone else that i know (besides you).. Maybe you had an earlier version, or maybe, again, we both think of skunk as something different, which there's nothing wrong with..

Not saying it's not in there, but honestly I wouldn't take the time to look, as it could be a very long and thankless endevor, considering i don't personaly consider the pure/skunk#1 as high quality meds.. I smoked maybe 2-3 grams of each SK1 plant i had, and gave the rest away, as it's jus not my bag.. So if i was to grow out 5-10 packs i would likely end up with lbs of weed i couldn't do much with.. if you know what i mean.. Again, not saying it's not in there, but I do think it would take alot of space and time to find it..

Heck, if the Cheese pheno was rare in 1988, then how rare is it now?


It's funny you mentioned Daywrecker, as I just started some of my Daywrecker S1s as part of my ongoing search for skunk.. I don't know of the quality of the S1s, so we'll have to see.. But I do like qaulity S1s as they work almost like F2s, more diversity, more chances to find what we're looking for.. maybe..


You mention Afghan #1, which i have particularly steared clear of, even tho i am a definate afghan junky.. I have avoided it because it seems to have some uncertainty around it whether or not it's IBL and pure..

On the other hand, due to my jones for skunks and affies, I am running 3 other Afghan IBLs... Deep Chunk, Petrolia Headstash, and Afghan Dream.. There should be something equally as good or better in these 3 strains as Afghan #1.. The Afghan Dream is what I'd expect Afghan #1 to look like..

As far as Afghan #1, do you believe Sensi's to be an IBL? And should someone only buy it from Sensi? Based on your post (and obvious knowledge of all things cannabis) I will look into the Afghan #1, and give it a run.. I love all things afghan, but all the afghans and afghan #1s I've seen grown seem to produce less than stellar results, but the other breeder's versions get lumped into that aswell..


Nah, it's definately not about one particular strain, one particular pheno, one particular clone... To me it's just all about getting back to my skunky roots, back to the flavors that are my favorite, no matter where the source.. That's why i've been working hard to aquire all these Afghans/Pakis, and cuts/S1s of the Cheese, ECSD, Daywrecker... etc etc.. And now I'll be looking to some indian lines, and nepals, brazilians (i have 4 packs of Sunshine IBL)..

like i mentioned before, i'm not waiting for that one of a kind cut to make it my way, i'm taking steps to make my dream come true on it's own.. Not that i don't hope a RKSish cut will make it's way into my garden, and not that i don't have faith in shanti's upcomming release, it's jus that it's a flavor i love so much i can't rely on others to create or find it for me..

When you want something done right, do it yourself ;)

Man, I miss the RKS.
Been a long time.
Maybe 91 since I had any.
I'd kill for a cut of that.

My Kali Mist has a rank skunk spice smell and taste.
I love it. It yields so low though.
But most my favorites do.

It's not hard to understand why such a strain would be rare today. From what I have been told it reeked so bad it was very hard to grow and keep from being detected. Other strains came around that were almost as good but much less pungent, therefor easier to grow. I think the strong scent that made this clone unique and famous also sealed it's fate. Just an educated guess by what I have been told from older growers that know this strain well - sounds possible to me.
