Yeah but unless someone was there to experience it they're not gonna understand.

I remember the days of $20 five grams.

And oh man, open that bag up and it would smell like someone hit a skunk.

I just want something close I wish I'd known, save your seeds.
True all that :)... Wish we would have known . I miss her so much . haha.

I used to get skunk bud in the late 90s and early 2000s. Dude grew it up the mountain. It smelled and tasted like a real skunk. I have no idea what strain he was growing but I'd smoke anything and never bothered asking about the strain name.

There was also this college kid who was selling what he called Kind bud but I don't know if that's the strain or just a nickname. All I know it was potent and my eye whites were literally red.

I don't think she's gone all it takes is someone finding an old seed stash saved properly.

That or someone determined to make something as close as they can get which eventually will be.
Yes, if only there was a breeder who posts here who offered something very similar to RKS and a poster who has said multiple times that he’s grown the strain and it is very close to what he remembers the RKS being….

Just bought some old seeds from a guy on THCFarmer website. He had 30-40yr old award winning regular seeds from the 80s and 90s from his friends grow op. I snagged some off him. They coming in the mail. Bought Big Bud, Jamaican Pineapple and Purple Thunder from him.

He may have some left but I know his Afghan and Strawberry Kush are gone

Purple Thunder, not to be confused with the like-named “Purple Lightning,” is a rare sativa dominant hybrid strain created through crossing the infamous Early Durban X Kodiak Gold strain. Named for its gorgeous appearance and high-powered effects, Purple Thunder is perfect for any sativa lover who wants to get up and moving

The Jamaican Pineapple strain has an unknown origin. It is from the Jamaican landraces, as evidenced by its profiles and its effects. It produces a fruity, spicy, earthy, sour, and piney taste that is carried over to its aroma. Its dark green buds are fluffy and heavily covered with orange hairs

KB I don't think a lot of stuff actually had names yet, I remember one time seeing my neighbors gigantic six food tall plants and asking him that. He said Mexican just weed.

Now twenty years later I'm tending over a three foot tall auto with a name.

Sorter, feels I don't know for as much as I like this era.

Maybe it was nostalgia.

I remember going to Colorado, uh, um, that one.

Just want some weed man, I don't know do you mean what kinda high do I want today.

Oh there's options thats why sometimes it would hit me different, sounds like you like indicas here's some we'd recommendations.

Y'all any of that red haired skunky shit.

We have, such and such and such.

You know what I'll just take that.

It's a sativa and that's such and such.

That's fine give me that.


Paranoidly pondering like I've taken a hit of 'cid.

I should have gone with that recommendation.

Now I've learned a bit more since 2014 but, I realized I'm the last of a different era of stoners.

I've adapted because I had to, I'm starting to realize what actually gave me that buzz was the entourage effect.

But unlike mixing the two together it came from one plant, so it's a different effect.

I have plenty of old seeds never mind the ones i bought from breeders they either ones i kept or given to me from friends and family and stuff but only so much is separated and labelled theres a big mix of various ages and types i always knew the value of seeds never toss em if its from good stuff in my opinion

You should see the hairy super skunk plant I grew last September.
Red orange hairs galore. Shit hit me hard 1 hit and made me paranoid, heart rate went up and anxiety attack.
Was too strong for me. I grew her too good
Gave her banana peel tea right after flipping. Not sure if it helped but it was the only plant I gave it too and it was my best plant.

Mine hasn't had seeds to do that with in years, but when I found something that did I saved every one.

Oh it may not be the best, but if I get a few males all I gotta do is use it like a sperm bank and then I'll have something to please all the ladies and eventually make a decent hybrid.

Not long ago on seedbay there were some old Skunk open pollination seeds available by Sam Skunkman of Cultivators Choice…
breeders retail ancestral skunk open pollination: definitely sweet skunk #1, maybe cali-o, maybe rks. I got 300 seeds for $120 + s/h. old seed stock havent tried any yet. I have the gibberellic acid, and plan on soaking in hydrogen peroxide for 30 min. maybe later this year

keep an eye out maybe they will release them again

Well, I got these Skunk #1 seeds from a guy who runs a grow place in town. Apparently his wife wouldn't allow him to grow this stuff cuz it stank so bad. I got the seeds, two out of three grw, and I cloned it a dozen plants or so...it's OK, but it certainly is not skunk bud. Skunk bud used to smell a lot like skunk shit or skunk sweat or skunk something. I think it's gone folks. I haven't seen it, or smelt it, in decades.
