@ToddMcC
I’m sure you’re busy but I’ve searched extensively for awhile now and haven’t come up with anything.
Did you have any pics and/or a description of your keeper/favorite pheno of the (NL5xHaze)xSensiStar?
Just wondering in relation to what I’m growing out… Thanks for your time!
Have any of you received tracking info for your skunk1 or did you get just the general email saying the skunk 1 is ready to purchase and preorders will go out sooner than planned
This is the email i got:
Original Skunk No.1 is Back!
Get them while they are available!
NOW SHIPPING!
Original Skunk #1
$50.00
The Original Skunk No.1(Afghan x Colombian) x Acapulco Gold
8 to 10 Weeks Flowering Time
Regular Seeds
Seed stock came directly from Skunkman Sam to Mel Frank in 1988.
Legendary for its stability, consistency and high myrcene levels, this is the truly authentic Skunk No.1.
Mel Frank reproduced the seeds in 1996 and stored them in a refrigerator with desiccants for 23 years. I have grown the seeds from the 1996 batch out multiple times and found these phenotypes to be more acrid than sweet, with very long and full buds. Because I liked them so much, I did an open pollination IBL reproduction in order to preserve the original Skunk No.1 genetics with the more acrid and skunky terpenes.
$10.00 each seed sold in packs off 5 seeds at $50.00 per pack.

Nothing yet. I know his system is automated, I bought the pre-order with another strain so the tracking only lists the other strain that I already got months ago.
He usually does pretty decently fast shipping though so I’d imagine they’d be showing up this week or maybe next but i think we’ll have to wait and see. I don’t know of anyone who has already received them at least…
I live about two hours away from him so I’m hoping to get mine soon
For those curious on the Original Haze smells, I have 4 females; all have the classic haze smell, but with varying notes. One smells more nutty and woody, one smells more mango-ish, one smells more like panama red, which is almost impossible to describe unless you’ve had it, and one smells like a dead ringer for Top Dawg’s Uptown Brown… which people tell me is the closest thing to the piff smell outta NYC.(I’ve never had the pleasure of true piff, but i have grown uptown brown, and the one ohaze smells just like it… maybe not quite as loud though) They are about 3-6 weeks from harvest, so i’m sure the smells will be more pronounced in time, but as of now that’s what they are giving off. The one that leans towards PR in odor doesn’t look like the frostiest thing I’m growing right now, but it is so fucking sticky… just bump it and you feel like there is glue on wherever it touched. I’ll try to get some pictures later.
That sounds great ! That nutty, woody pheno really has my interest.
Can i ask how long you reckon your gals will flower in total?
Many thanks.
Excellent description. Thanks for sharing.
from what i can remember, and based on how it is going, i would say somewhere around 14-20 wks… probably more like 16 even from when the pistils started showing on the bud sites. The nutty woody one that you mention is taking the longest, followed by the one that smells like uptown, then the panama red smelling, then the mango, which is the shortest flowering… so they aren’t all in the exact same time frame… I’m thinking there will be some with shorter times, and others with even longer than the one’s i’m growing if you went through enough. I had a NL/Haze a couple of years ago that went 2 months longer than it’s siblings… i think there might be wide ranges like that with these too. i hope that helps!
Thanks for the feedback, thats really what i was hoping to hear.
Me2 preordered long ago.
Will post any updates.
Like @Heritagefarms I’m only a couple hours from them.
I dont think he that “back in stock” means that he is shipping them yet, I think that just means they will be available soon, and he has ended the pre-order pricing.
I sent a message to Todd to see when they were shipping abs he was out of town and just got back. He issued me a refund as he says he no longer ships to Canada but said he would give me my original deal if someone is willing to send it on.
Anyone that’s getting an order willing to do a favor?
I got you on this @MBVapester
Let me know what you and Todd decide.
Ideally he tosses it in with my order. Then I will send to you.
I already worked out a plan to forward @MBVapester his order, but that is very cool of you to offer to help
Yes thanks for the offer @GramTorino. As @monkeyman says he has me covered.
Cool. As long as @MBVapester gets the skunk.
I just got an e-mail from Todd saying that he will be doing a Northern Lights #5 F2 pre-order

Seed stock originally came directly to me from Greg McAllister (the gentleman who gave Northern Lights to Nevil back in 1985).
I am reproducing them as an F2 for your enjoyment and the benefit of the cannabis community.
NL#5 is legendary for its potency and connoisseur quality smoke. Northern Lights was one of the primary colors of cannabis breeding going back into the 70’s, and NL#5 was always considered one of the best examples of the Northern Lights line.
Widely popularized by Nevil and The Holland Seed Bank after he received it from Greg back in 1985. Nevil went on to use it for breeding some of the most popular cannabis in the world, such as Northern Lights #5 x Haze and Jack Herer.
NL#5 is excellent breeding material and a must-have for any serious collector. It is truly an honor to have these genetics and be able to share them with you.
$10.00 each seed sold in packs of 10 seeds @ $100.00 per pack.
During the month of November, all NL#5 PRE-ORDERS will be doubled when shipped, so you will get two packs for the price of one!
If you order one pack, you will receive two packs when they ship April 1st, 2012.
There is no limit to the amount of packs you can get during this half-price offer.
Please note, these seeds will not be shipped until April 1, 2021. You will receive your seeds sometime in the first week of April 2021.
Also note: If you place an order for in-stock seeds with this NL#5 pre-order, you will receive two packages, as all items that are in stock will ship to you immediately, and your NL#5 seeds will ship in a second package no later than April 1st, 2021.
Did I mention these seeds will not ship to you until April 1st, 2021?
Also also note: Your preorder will reserve your place in line and you will be the first to receive these genetics as soon as they are available. You will be getting a great deal on authentic NL#5 genetics and helping me make this all possible.
And last, a huge thank you to everybody who pre-ordered both the Original Haze last year and the Original Skunk No.1 this year, I appreciate your support and am hoping you are all enjoying the genetics. I am ahead of schedule with the Skunk No.1 preorders and everybody should be getting them in the next few weeks.
Happy Holidaze!
Todd
