Damn just erased a whole message.I am excited by the terp sniffs I took tonight. I smelled#3- a Skunk x WillyD f2 Fireskunk that smells just like Firecracker Indica. #3 and #6 are looking the same now. The picture is becoming more defined.
If you would like to sniff the terps yourself it could be arranged. I'm not Jeffrey Dahmer or a weirdo. Not gay. Have 2 housemates. It would be cannabis college for pros. Even #1 now has terps that are mouth watering. There's not a single plant I want to throw away. I need help keeping these things. Don't know Soothsayer but he expressed an interest. Maybe I should try to strike a deal. And no b.s....the one male was skunky as all. And I have the pollen. Don't care what it is...every genetic in the tent is a keeper.

Sniffed #3 tonight. It sent me to the moon. Blast off. I think 20 years ago I didn't realize the phenos the Fireskunk could produce when I panned it. And now I have reached out to a local breeder because I have all keepers and I need help. I can't kill any of these plants and I don't want to give them away. In two weeks to four weeks the terps will be very evident. Best time to smell them.
It's no lie ..the skunk is an effing royal genetic. The Fireskunk is coming! This is going to be the most fun bud tasting too.

When I germinated the seeds...I noticed they were too large to be pure Skunk as well. I took a whiff of tropical fruit and gas tonight that has me really excited for this. This has been a long time coming. I was always playing the long game.

This new year is starting off good. It feels like I could make a discovery of something worthy of being an elite clone. I honestly feel high just being in the presence of these plants. They are a story about lost diamonds found. Old school fire from Virginia that the world has never seen. I wish H & L would knock on my door.

One interesting note on these genetics and the parents....you can't get any of them anywhere anymore, not the real stuff. Skunk#1 from Watson, Willy D Firecracker, Pot of Gold and Kabul Baba from Flying Dutchman.

That likely is due to the masses that have done hybridization of skunk#1. For at least the last 20 yrs, everyone has offered a skunk. It's probably be diluted down so badly it'll take some serious efforts and many years to resurrect. It really is a shame what the cannabis industry has turned into. Greed is the root of all evil.

Depends what line tbh

I think it depends on the line. I found sk#1 to be stable in the sense that you could tell a skunk plant from another strain, fairly homogenous, but you'd get big, small, better sweeter terps on some plants, some more compact like Afghani, but all having the same branching and basic terps. It wasn't as much of a spread as what I am growing now.
Also, the bracting didn't change that much, you'd get better ones of course, but all had bracts that were the same in size and in the bud structure. I'd say medium/ small bracts. And some plants were average. Some were more resinous. And some had cherry terps.

Like you said depends on the line the less selected and bred out the more likely it is to find something different the pure is very selected and bottlenecked as sexual stability goes the later 80s skunks were more solid than the earlier ones ime they aren't very sexually stable and vary more

Cool. I will look that up. I made a mistake in saying POG. The cross smells just like POG but there is no POG in it. That to me gives some creedance to the theory that the Flying Dutchman Sk#1 was the same as the freebies Skunk#1.

Probably a silly question, but what's so special about skunk#1? I know the terp is really pungent and is it's most well known attribute, but what else about this unicorn is so desirable?

It's the other way around. Back in the day Skunk #1 was known to be smelling light and fresh and fruity to the point of it hardly smelling like weed anymore. It was bred during the probation years for stealth. Roadside skunk and that line genetic is something completely different.

It's a very stable genetic line and extremely sturdy. Easy to clone and grow and smells fresh and fruity. The effect is also great, not overly potent but very uplifting and functional.

Now that sounds like something special!!
I've never had the pleasure of such a cultivar, any chance it still exists?

Many things great yield varied smell taste and effects and as a breeding tool it has great combining abilities with almost anything it touches why do you think it's in everything pretty much cos most hybrids have it somewhere in there lineage

I'll have to do some research on the matter. I'd love to get my hands on it.

I've got alot of the funky pungent, gassy, sour, citrus, ect.... but the super sweet and loud fruity i don't. I'm not to concerned about odor, but a cultivar that doesn't reek like weed would be a nice addition. I know my wife would appreciate it, lol. She's constantly complaining about how everything stinks. Says she gets headaches, but I don't know if I believe that so much. I think she just like to bitch because I show so much passion for my garden.

You want fruity grow sweet skunk types or Cali o or Cali o x skunk like KC brains Cali special or his mango or kc36 if you like grapefruit sweet pink grapefruit or it's crosses c99 can be pineapple or grapefruit phenos too or blueberry and it's hybrids green apple candy grow big bang but a word to the wise though super fruity and potent normally don't go in the same sentence the odd pheno that has the taste and extra is potent that's a keeper it's not impossible just the
"fruit named lines" tend to be chilled and mellow unless we talking mango Thai or something Vs other stuff ime

And you just said why the Skunk#1 rocks because it a had rich sweet pungency but also was potent.

If you know anything about music and Roman numerals for chord theory...I like to think of the Watson Skunk#1 as a I- IV- V. A very powerful harmonic relationship. The Colombian,Afghan, and Aculculpo Gold are like the triad notes of a chord. The three individual notes together create a chord. The Skunk is landmark achievement in breeding.
