i think maybe rks isnt what a lot of people thought it was back in the day, why else would herb so good vanish from the scene without a trace. i think some people are looking for something they wont find cause they are looking for the wrong thing... all i know is all this time if this thread going and it has never produced anything that anyone could 'verify' as 'rks' everyone argues about what it is and isnt and i just think you might be looking for something that never existed in the first place, not trying to hurt anyones feelings it just doesnt add up.

Well what I find interesting/intriguing in the search for the RKS, is that so far there seem to be a few different descriptions of the nuggets. Lime green golf balls with few pistils, pine cone buds with bright orange pistils etc. etc. etc.
Now, what are the exact genetics of skunk?
(mazar x oaxacan) x oaxacan x mazar) x acapulco gold? (or was it columbian instead of oaxacan? ) stoned atm, don't recall...
I think we can all agree that the RKS stank comes from the Afghan lineage. Which seems to originate in the Mazar region. Higher or lower elevation though? I am sure a lot of you have seen pics of sativa looking afghan's grown at higher elevations.
Therefore, IMO because of the 3 way hybrid, possible differences in phenotypical expressions based on environment, different genotypical expressions, explains why some buds may appear different but carry the stank. So the fact people note different looking buds, while still noting the RKS funk we remember is easily explainable.
I don't think that the search should be limited to the Mazar region, as Money Mike has pointed out, other areas may contain that funk in it's landraces. But I would think that is the place to look first.
Just my two copper pieces on the subject.

i used to live in mexico, and lime green super skunky buds can be found in oaxaca and its nieghboring province that dominates the cannabis trade and is like its own country in mexico.
i think that there was a pure afghan then the skunk man cross which both were very rks becuase of its parents, d

It's not as much that I'm offended that you seem to "think" you know more about what I (and all these other smokers) have smoked then I/we do, but that you are flat out wrong.
So I'll call Bullshit!. Ask Sam the Skunkman, the original inventor/breeder of skunk

Whattup Mike the description of the strain says it's got a skunk pheno (maybe 15-20% of them), and it doesn't mention the word fruity anywhere around it!
Also, it's straight from 1982 which is GOOD
Doesn't look quite how I'd expect 'roadkill skunk' to look growing. I'm looking forward to seeing the finish but more into hearing about the smell and taste. It's realistic that some of it's parentage could have that old school skunk smell that just isn't in weed anymore.
I know I don't even have to ask if you saved yourself a cut
I don't doubt that there's regions that had or still have skunky weed.
The shame is that sam has exactly what were looking for. Bring it back Sam!
Also isn't Shanti working on some old skunk projects?
sure does !!
so folks want to know the exact genetics of skunk? this is another laugher and good luck in the hunt.
there used to be a free newspaper on just about every corner in caly called the l.a. free press. it was a radical paper you read on the bus and threw away. in 1969, the skunk was the underground rage out west and one of the first hybs on the scene. the free press published the skunk formula including a map of sorts on how to find the genes; the afghan seeds somewhere in berkely, another line somewhere else and atm, the mex could be found everywhere.
imo there was a time when there were many different skunks, any of which could've worn the rks label. this was a period when it was about the only usa grown available. and today there are none? this does not make sense to me? genetics so prevalent only 30 years ago are now lost forever? peace-biteme

Ehhhh not quite the smell that a skunk sprayed. Maybe in an undertone, but only after more of a funk/sour-ness to the Chem (IMO). I get the resemblance, but the "skunk" i got back in the day smelled straight up like a skunk had sprayed.
And dare I say that it smelled stronger then Chem D?

Hrpuffnkush: Can I ask where you got the RKS from? Had you had it back in the day and how does what you have compare?
Also, are any seeds going to be sent to seedbay for auction??
Joestoner: Being here on the east coast, I'm not used to being able to look up cuts like that. That'd still be great news if it's out there available in Cali... If there are indeed 'real deal'cuts at clubs, hopefully that means it'll be available in seed or cuts to others soon..
I'd love to get a smell/taste/smoke report on one of those cuts from someone that had rks back in the day...at least to know it's out there for sure.

Could i just add that there is nothing sweet about my OH x SK#1 plants. Im sure i read somewhere that sam had bred the rks pheno out of it? But let me tell you this, once this stuff is dried you have to be very careful where you store it. Whilst drying i had to pour petrol around my shed due to extreme paranoia of the smell it was really that bad. I have kept clones of this and will be putting it out again this growing season.
Im not saying its RKS but this stuff really does have a bad smell to it, its very noticeable to all and everyone wants it.
Here she is outdoor, harvested just under 1 pound. Going for gold with the clones this year and hoping to get a couple of monsters.

Lets not take steps backwards here guy's.
RKS is not a strain, it is a terpene/odor. It don't matter if it's blue buds with pink hairs as long as it smells like A SKUNK THAT HAS SPRAYED.
We already know there are different types of buds that are RKS but one thing they have in common? THEY SMELL LIKE A SKUNK THAT HAS SPRAYED.
I'd rather dig around in a messy cat box looking for ripe turds then search for RKS in Skunk #1, aka Bunk #1, aka Sweet #1.
X18 does have some stank to it, its waaaaaaaaay more skunky then any Sweet #1 I've ever seen or grown.
