I think it’s a nostalgia, perception change thing. There are way more gassy/skunky type cultivars these days than back then. Hard to imagine a 35 year old cut that’s putting it all to shame
I live in Canada born 76 been smoking since 89 personally I have never seen or smoked Roadkill Skunk i have on the other hand gotten my hands on Skunk#1 a hand full of times but like you said Fletch since the 80s they either threw away those plants or bred the heavy Skunk out of it Skunk Strains in Canada were always and have always up until 2018 very hard to get your hands on and even then i don't see alot of Skunk strains being sold either so Skunk imo was a remote grown thing in a very small community/network you had to know some one who grew it or you were shit out of luck lmfao!!
We had some bud that smelled like a skunk actually sprayed something around my home town from 2004-2006 that was a heavy indica people called shoreline and I’m pretty sure it was not shoreline.
Is it possible to do a "want advertisement" to the public, for them to search their houses for old stashed away cannabis seeds? Vets who went on tours from all time periods? The elderly may have some hidden treasures. I dont know, but it doesnt seem like it could hurt
Does Sour D still exist? Has it been crossed into other things and the original genetics been lost? I don't see it really anymore. I'm in the Seattle area and mostly by rec though.
theres this guy that hunted through a lot of skunk lines recently and was trying to find something that smelled and reminded him of actual skunky gross acrid crazy smell that people reminisce about a lot. most of them were all not even close and follow what youre discussing in the beginning of the video. luckily in the thread of conversation he mentioned he hunted through some seeds from this florida company that had 80s heirloom skunk seeds that actually resembled something gnarly like actual skunk.
Hey guys, love the episode!! Have you ever heard of blueskiesvienna? he claims to have the original roadkill oldschool skunk. Much love and merry christmas from austria,!!
Yeah, the smell taste in effect of that super gassy. Skunk is why people like weed and the taste. The sweetness now all the weed nowadays taste like freaking chemicals
growing up in south central Florida back in the late 80s we would get skunk bud twice a year and it literally smelt like you got sprayed in the face by a skunk to the point it burnt your eyes and nose hairs when you smelt the sandwich bag dam we always looked forward to it then it just slowly disappeared
I would be willing to bet RKS is a super skunk pheno. Super Skunk is by far the rankest stinkiest straight skunk I ever came across. Also fits in the time line. Dig into 100 super skunk females, that’s where she is. RKS is Super Skunk elite pheno.
it was definitely more than nostalgia. my nose was actually better back in the early 2ks and i had everything from trainwreck to super silver haze to og to multiple different cuts of sour diesel, but pure skunk smelled like a skunk. the way i put it is that skunks have two different smells, one to scare away predators and one to mark their territory for mating, and the mating one is slightly sweeter, and that's what skunk weed smelled like. i grew it one time, but at the time it wasn't rare, so i didn't keep it very long. i don't think there was just one skunk plant though, but it was more of a phenotypical expression that got bred out when all the flashy kind bud strains got popular, and people were getting busted from the skunk smell.
But, just like the original Chem family stuff. Daywrecker diesel was the best of all of them. But because it got way small yields nobody kept it around. I always thought it was sad it never got its day. Although, it could have been in those packs that got caught up in Vegas that year.
Trinity from Kansas City. I was always told it was skunk #1 That was a mutant. It was smallish plants not the typical single cola skunk afghanica formation. That weed was Roadkill skunk, it couldn't be contained by glass. Everyone I know that had it was busted growing it. It was stinkout the block. We got kicked out of three rented properties because of the smell. The two outstanding traits it had was it unusual calyxes and really dark brown skinny hairs. Then it was completely covered in resin from the start. Which let you know it was real. The earliest heads would be straight black and red! The buds were stacked strangely too. They stayed wet forever too because they were so resinous! I know this one was a clone only. I can atest that a pound of real Trinity smells way worse than a ten pack of sour diesel.
Skunk shouldnt be that difficult to refine. Just have to stop crossing fruit aromas into funky aromas. Funk x funk x funk should result in a pure skunk pheno popping up.
Legend has it billy hanes and old North Carolina Appalachian mountain native has kept a private seed collection of some of the rarest oldest true strains from the late 80’s and 90’s
Thank you i have posted on every freaking youtubers channel – grow , pheno hunt, and plz talk about roadkill skunk! My fav cultivar, but indian skunk is VERY similar but not the true RKS. And eevn then i cant get seedsman to make more Indian skunk seeds.! Fml
that hash burger i got from you guys is pretty damn close. i was accused of being a skunk trapper this year dropping off my deer at a meat cooler. the guy didnt burn, and he asked me if i was trapping skunks, i laughed and said no, that damn hash burger is lit
I used to get oz's from VA back in 85-86 and the road kill smell had more then just skunk smell , you would get burnt rubber , onion, and arm pit funk with the skunk and depending on what batch you got each terp showed up stronger with the skunk
Where can I listen to the full talks of these shows ? Great cannabis content live from 🏴
Skunk and ghani was better than all this weed I've been seeing in 20 years

iirc roadkill skunk wasnt actually skunk its a afgani pheno that just happen to smell like a skunk
I’ve also been looking for the RKS for the last 25+ years, but I do have a few, legit Afghani Bullrider beans (my prized possession lol)

Blueskiesvienna is the biggest bullshitter out about skunk
Great informational video! 🔥

I'll subscribe guy but ya best not go taking a 2 year hiatus again cause i am og an btw i miss danny an bobbylon want to know what's up with them boys
Thanks guys. Skunk/funk is my number one terp profile but it's almost non existent
Does Sour D still exist? Has it been crossed into other things and the original genetics been lost? I don't see it really anymore. I'm in the Seattle area and mostly by rec though.

Loving this content guys keep it flowing.
Hey guys, love the episode!! Have you ever heard of blueskiesvienna? he claims to have the original roadkill oldschool skunk.
Much love and merry christmas from austria,!!
No the skunk we had back in the 80s it was pure skunk spray not sweet or fruity it is sad it’s gone . Love your guys reviews
Skunk 1 was the first strain I ever grew for over 10yrs I wish I still had the strain ! my favorite strain ever
Love this kind of content! Would love to also see more strain "deep dives" also love the longer 30+ min videos!
I want to see more sativa cross sativas instead of the usual indica cross sativa 😎
Yeah, grow Ops or robbed 5 minute types of people. The federal layer just a different breed who attacked their own people to get what they want.😅
I still miss Albert Walker (and Elvis)
The train wreck crash.
Gas

I would say Cheese man! Bring real cheese back.

Unless you gotcha skunk from skunkman sam , itaint the rea;ll
Northern light cuts going around now are crazy resinous and definitely a bit changed but not bad at all
Roadkill skunk is a legend it’s not real
that hash burger i got from you guys is pretty damn close. i was accused of being a skunk trapper this year dropping off my deer at a meat cooler. the guy didnt burn, and he asked me if i was trapping skunks, i laughed and said no, that damn hash burger is lit
Grew some Northern lights x Skunk in 2010 and that definitely smelled like skunk from blocks away
I used to get oz's from VA back in 85-86 and the road kill smell had more then just skunk smell , you would get burnt rubber , onion, and arm pit funk with the skunk and depending on what batch you got each terp showed up stronger with the skunk
Such a shame we lost the real sour diesel, I still dream of it
Back in 89 my buddy ordered G13/skunk seeds from the seed bank. Grew it out and it was very skunky. Best skunk I seen in my lifetime
