GHS cheese lines. Cheese is just Skunk #1 extremely skunky pheno. I don't know how much more skunk smell ya need /shrug. It's incredibly dependable and you can find phenos with a hint of fruit in the back ground or none at all just rank skunk.

i bet its rare but i have smoked a very skunky not cheezy pheno of this if its the greenhouse cheese not the exodus one your talking about idk bout full on rks but its definitely not your typical cheese or skunk#1 you normally see these days but a word of warning theres also a wierd almost mushroom tasting/skunky pheno in there as well i wasnt a fan of that one it got you blazed but it was the wierdest tasting herb i think ive ever smoked

I tell people to imagine if a strain called “Giraffe” came out of Africa that smells exactly like a giraffe. People in North America, Europe, etc would have no clue what to look for when smelling that strain.
Good analogy.
My mother told me that my grandfather didn't believe that the giraffe was a real animal until he finally saw one at the zoo back in the 50's. :lol:

It’s really no wonder there was disconnect on “skunk” terps from Europe. The real question is why did they reference skunk with no basis?! Seems like that’s probably why some people wouldn’t think there was really such a thing if this was really the first OG situation where people called anything good a skunk, particularly when they had no idea what that really meant. With as many of those as we have in the southwest, it’s hard to believe they aren’t everywhere, they are like mosquitoes out here!

Yeah uneducated folks pretty much deem anything with strong odor of any sort to be skunk.

How do you not know what a Skunk smells like or a Dead Skunk ?
so funny is the level of skunk notation. a dead skunk smells like a living skunk that's sprayed. the skunk is dead because it got run over. So it will be close to the road you're driving on and being run over spraying was probably the last thing it did because they aren't afraid and they spray anything including cars.

For real, if you’ve ever been lucky enough to run up on a real skunk that’s alive, they are not afraid! Right before they spray you down and make you smell like them they might take a bite! They growl and have a fairly nasty disposition. The one I’m thinking of used to try to fight our dog for his food, the dog was 165 lb Great Dane, that damn skunk was easy 100lb maybe a bit more solid 30” on all fours. I took one for the team and shot him in the ass with my pellet gun from around the door. I had to wash the entryway and door to the house and my arm/gun got sprayed but that skunk never came back after that. Rightly, I’ll never get the smell out of my memory lol

Few yrs back we had a juvenile skunk come under the vestibule of our tent at 6am. Got the one dog right in the face thru the screen door. I bailed out the other end w the dogs and my blanket. Skunk took off. The one dog was puking for a bit.
Wifey stayed in the tent the whole time and slept for another hr or so!!!
But if it had been a mature skunk I think we all woukd have been puking. This little guy probably just learning how to spray

I've only smelled skunk while driving, never lived in a place that really had many or any.
I thought my dog was chasing the neighbors cat, so i tried to stop him. Got there just in time to get sprayed along with the dog. Smells like burning rubber at that distance.
Didnt realize how bad i got it till i was at the grocery store buying dawn, peroxide and baking soda. Everyone cleared a path for me and i sped through the checkout.
 
My Newfoundland Dog got sprayed in the face 5 or so years ago by a skunk hiding in my backyard. Up close it smells strongly of burning rubber mixed with garlic that has been rammed into your sinuses. It might have been the most offensive thing I’ve ever smelled. Much different from skunk spray at a distance. The smell didn’t fully go away for about 18 months, and every time she would go swimming it was very strong haha.

i'm learning then because I don't live near the country but I smell them a lot when driving even in urban area. everytime i'm like god damn, there must be a weed house around here! usually it's zooming by but i notice there happens to be a cemetery or train tracks nearby. so to be technical then, i don't think the roadkill we all want smells like garlic and burning rubber. i think it smells like skunk you drive past, which is somehow appealing to the senses. it's strong as ammonia but it's not ammonia. Like ammonia mixed with some magic pheromone or essence of some exotic rotting fruit but it's not sweet because ammonia knocks sweet the fuck out of it.

Awesome pictures.. I found that 99% of Sam’s Skunk #1 crosses were sweet. Like breeder Steve’s sweet skunk. I’ve ran through hundreds of skunk #1 f2’s, all of them were super fire but sweet skunk. Not the strong skunk spray aroma that everyone is after.

I’d like to see more people pop their old northern lights or afghani lines. Remember, you sit on them for to long like baseball cards, they will just be a pack with a name, fun memories and old white seeds.

Black sterling is more strong burnt rubber garlic skunk sativa looking that is a little more stretchy, afghani black skunk is more skunk cabbage on a short afghani bush that make your eyes water. The afghani skunk has the skunk phenos hidden there.

I wish i would have held on to it a little longer to work, but the demand is so high that i thought it would be a great idea for the community to find that special pheno and let the strain speak for itself. Both have awesome soaring effect, for the guys that like to smoke tough. Both a little sensitive to over feeding too. They slam outdoors.

hope that helps a little
thanks

I really appreciate your response!, hopefully the black afghan skunks get restocked! I have 5 packs of black sterlings and figured I didnt need the black Afghan skunk. O was I wrong. I need 10 packs of that!

It’s live, Heime Cheeba is letting them out! He has the old school RKS and he is selling them. He said he just didn’t think anyone wanted them since so many people got busted for running it. They are expensive but real. $500 a pack but all things considered I don’t think people will mind.
