To be what they claim they would have to be mazar x Colombian gold or Acapulco gold x mazar or a mix of those two in the one seed lot cos thats what the parents are the cross of those two sativa x ghani hybrid lines then inbred is what makes skunk#1 meant to be

The smell is on people in stores, restaraunts and at intersections. Wafting over public events. Legal like changed things. I got a kush skunking. It is sad compared to the bag seeds in my fishing gear from 20+ years ago.

I mean if dude pulled them out of the doomsday vault maybe but you know they spend millions of dollars to operate that place though.

For an average person saying they kept seeds in a fridge for 40 years that's a hard thing to believe. Especially in Cali.

No power outages, no moving, no thawing of the seeds....

Sure buddy. You guys can believe that but for me I'm gonna stick with bs.

I'm still digging seeds out of my old fishing and hunting gear. Not to mention the disc golf bag. A bit of abrasion and H2O2 spritz = germ. I believe it is dry that matters. And stable storage.

Like I said. I don't believe it for 1 second. The 40 year old freezer beans.

Could it be true, sure but so could the Loch Ness monster.

Call me a pessimist but naw. Especially with all the skunk talk the last year or two online creating higher demands for that "old" skunk.

Last year or two? There are threads on here from 2014 about people looking for rks, the best lead I found in those threads were the strains I just recently posted.

What you don't believe him

Early 70s, smoked very Skunk smelling weed going as South Mexican or Columbian.

Greg McAlister's sister died and they found Greg's old seed stash from the early 80's in there. It turned out to contain Purest Indica, which was one half of Northern Lights, and they were able to be reproduced successfully. Now I have a bunch of those in my own hands. That's 40 years.

It is not a stretch. Refrigerator/freezers were made better in the 70's and 80's than they are now.

I've got some ocean front property in Arizona for sale.

In order, control group, original 3 plants now, closer look, three stems, whats left of the skunk 1 2 and 3, where it lay on the bottom. The buds did not seem to change smell but the stems had a more acrid smell to them, noticeably different, will check again as they dry.

Lmao

Oh wait i thought i was in the RKS thread

Dude was alive but never popped any of these treasured seeds for 40 years. Dies and his family is like "oh wait, guess what we found..."

I'll keep my money till I see other people's grows from those magical mystery freezer beans.

I'm skeptical of so much stuff in this age of bull crap.

Opposums and skunks have different teeth, that's why I showed the teeth. I was hoping some fur would be left. I think insects got into the bottom of the bucket, but there was still a little smell from the remains. I know someone with a freezer that may have older seeds than 40 years but nothing I am interested in, he is or was an acclimation'ist. On to the next experiment.

I question the veracity of his statements to say the least

i have no doubt it is hidden, in more of what u smoke than you know.

I think my sniffer has either evolved or devolved when it comes to cannabis. I was jarring up what is supposed to be "animal pie" and to me its overwhelming burnt rubber and fuel smell. My partner (who doesn't consume) walked in and said that smells good, I asked what it smells like and she says like strawberry cream cake. I have no clue how we could be so far off. So my thought is since she regularly says my herb smells like "skunk" maybe us enthusiasts have better honed however we smell terps.
