is this the sweet skunk Bodhi used in his elfinstone?
Although PSBC may have used spice of life seed stock to further work the line I don't think so.


iirc Bodhi uses Breeder Steve cut for his crosses?



TBH I'm not sure what MikeJ used originally for his Sweet Skunk line. I've often wondered this myself.



In other news MikeJ sent me Sweet Skunk beans from 3 different moms to report back to him which I like best. Should be interesting. I know what I'll be doing on my next run now. :D

iirc I only grew out 5 or 6 ladies but like you I came across 2 distinct phenos. 1 had a more broad leafed structure and was a bit faster finishing and the other was narrow leafed which took a week or 2 more to finish with small variation between individuals. All nice and frosty.

Looks great bro I'm interested to hear your smoke report. My first experience smoking it was something else having smoked mostly only indicas my whole life.



I also have to point out that the Sweet Skunk resin heads are something else for hash making. The only way I can describe it is once the herb is dried they are very dry and sandy like, not as greasy and sticky as many other strains but still melt wonderfully.

How are the aromas? Mine was very subtle, not super stinky but the faster finishing ones had almost hint of sour cream.
Interesting. Thanks for the response. I only have one jarred up (pictured above) but it smells nice. Not real strong like you mentioned. It's a combo of sweet and and sour cream. Real nice! Smoke report in a few days...

From what I understand his SS is the ISS cut bred to old skunk #1 seeds (the sweet version) and then worked.

Sweet and sour cream... interesting description. There is a definite subtle sweetness. There are distinct pine undertones in some of them. There are a few phenotypes, but there is also a lot of similarity between them.

I think he uses the Breeder Steve cut, but he probably should. I like Peakseeds version better than the Breeder Steve cut and given the history of each the PSBC version is going to be better breeding material IMO (original cut is a polyhybrid sativa dom found in a large run of indica dom seeds - I will say though this cut is likely better for breeding than a traditional polyhybrid as it was one out of a few hundred which means probably a bunch of recessive traits lined up making it a little more true breeding than it might be otherwise). I'm running SS x ECSD right now from chim and it's a bit disappointing in that it's basically the SS dominating the cross completely and I didn't really want that.

just received an order from mj at psbc, he is always more than generous, been doing business with him for years now and never had a bad experience, love his strains there not fly by night strains they are tested and true.

I was wondering about the blueberry as well, it says that there are problems germinating the seeds, but has anyone grown this?? how is it?? I would love to grab some, just a bit nervous about the description
My initial thought was the same as yours... I don't want to piss around with a strain that has germination issues, but then I thought it through further, and for $30-$40 what the heck. I'd rather have a few seeds not pop from a strain, than take up a bunch of my time and space growing out a strain that turns out to be poop. Germinating seeds takes up very little time and space. His strains are solid. Think I'm gonna give it a whirl.

ive ran the bb before I had no germ problems using the paper towel method, they are nute sensitive as are most bb strains are. you should find a keeper mom no problem, there are a few bb journals over on ty, if ya want to check em out.

They'll all germinate if you give them a little once over with some sand paper.

It's a very good version of blueberry.

I've got both Sweet Skunk females dried and jarred now. Looking at the two, it appears that one is clearly more sativa leaning than the other (based on bud structure, fan leaves, etc). The strange part is, the one that looks more sativa is actually a very narcotic, strong stone, where as the more Indica looking plant is very much a clear headed, motivational high. Either way, both seem pretty potent. I'm going to take each one of these up to be tested.
