Skunk City, Elite Skunk Genetics

Gorilla glue is chem and chocolate diesel and sour dub…gotta make it pretty unique…if there crossed with a skunk what line was it?

These days I avoid the fuel strains if they got citrus…

I hear you @GregOG …about the Gorilla Skunk - definitely a nice combo to grow and explore.

Finding that old school Skunk is going to be more difficult than I thought…but I’ve picked up a bunch more seeds for the next Skunk hunt.

I picked up a few different variations of GG #4 and Skunk; my recent purchases include:
Gorilla Glue #4 x Skunk #1
Gorilla Glue #4 x Exodus Cheese
Gorilla Glue #4 x Cheese (Big Buddha Cheese)

And I just want to add - while I’m searching out Skunk genetics, I’ve read a lot of interesting articles, regarding how to get “skunky” plants. Some say it requires a special diet of nutrients, others say “special” soil, some say cure method…but one article in particular stood out. It basically says the “Skunk” is lost because we’re searching the wrong genetics.

For example: I’m searching (and gathering) a bunch of strains with “skunk” in the title, which contain the usual suspects - genetic lines from Mexico (Acapulco Gold), Colombia (Colombian Gold) and Afghanistan (Afghani).

However, this article explores Pakistan and India genetics; it goes on to state how these genetics haven’t been bottlenecked like the current “skunk” genetics. And it kind of makes sense, because as I research some Pakistani and India genetic landraces, I’ve read the descriptions of Aroma - so there might be something to exploring these other strains to find Skunk (rather than the “usual suspects”).

I actually picked up some beans from an old timer who bred some South American (Brazil - Sativa), India (Indica), and Mexican x Afghani. These were bred a good 10+ years ago, so memories aren’t on point - but they contain the correct ingredients. I can’t wait to do my next skunk hunt, along with these “outlier” strains - that I originally would have not considered (to be part of the skunk family).

If anyone else has some experience with Pakistani, India, or other landrace strains, that are “skunky” in nature - please chime in. These are definitely worth exploring.

Make sure you’ve got a good amount of organic matter in your soil for sure

Hey thank you I appreciate it man

Yeah I don’t know if people were just trying to throw us other skunk strain hunters off the scent of finding not just roadkill skunks but a regular flavored full flavored skunk strains in regular seed form not feminized or cloned

I don’t remember when Lucky 13 come out with Y2K or his deep chill but I do remember some guy posted up saying he bought Y2K and did not find skunk in it so I don’t know but I wish you luck happy growing with that and yes please by me is post up about it let us all know And once I get a spot to grow I’ll let you know how my stuff turns out I’ve got this top dollar strain I got to go out here I really like the strain last I had it like I said was back in 2006 and a skunky stench that come off it was off the charts I won’t say it was roadkill but it was definitely a skunky stench and something I had smelled for a long time but I will be making F2’s of my top dollar as long as it’s skunky and Sharing and spreading these seeds far and wide
Sharing is What the cannabis community is about :person_shrugging:t2:

I agree with what you said here I think we’re looking in the wrong direction It’s definitely bottlenecked up The skunk genes are
In my honest opinion depending on who what breeders seeds you have a skunk either the sweet or the real skunky funky stuff can be phenomenal stuff to smoke and medicate with It just depends on who’s strain you have and get attained You see it You know what I’m saying

See I’m from Detroit I smoked a lot of Mexican brick weed and a lot of Mexican stuff but my taste buds I also smoked the elegant stuff that was grown out to AAA+++ QUALITY standards like and I always asked when I bought cannabis off of somebody I would always ask you happen to know what strain this is and I said look it don’t bullshit me Tell me what it is if you know what it is If you don’t know what it is don’t lie to me I don’t want to know and some people would say I don’t really know man You know I was told it was this blah blah blah anyways I’m rambling but I think it’s a Colombian x Afghani a skunky Colombian and a skunky Afghani no thai nada no Thai

Edit: some of the Mexican brick weed we got was garbage some of that shit was out of this world potent

EDIT #2: I STAND CORRECTED ON WHEN I THINK SKUNK GENETICS ARE I THINK IT’S THIS NOT WHAT I STATED ABOUT BUT THIS I WASN’T THINKING STRAIGHT EARLIER

(Colombian gold X Mexican sativa) Colombian gold

The Mexican sativa is not Acapulco Gold it’s like a Guerrero or a mohican

I’m having good luck getting some true skunk smells of a few new F1s

Second seed test grow and first one I tested on the rub was Skunk again.
Garlic bud x my male Heirloom Afghani skunk phenotype.

I’ll do a huge preservation phenotype hunt soon with these F1 genetics. :dove:

And here’s something new for me: two (2) sprouts from one (1) seed. This one is the original recipe Skunk #1 from Hyp3rids (2023 recipe from scratch). They took an original Afghan, crossed to a Colombian Gold, and then crossed to an Acapulco Gold, here’s the strain lineage: [(Mazar-i-Sharif x Colombian Gold) x Acapulco Gold].

If my memory serves me right if everybody remembers Nirvana seed Bank from back in the day they’re skunk was this
(Colombian gold x Mexican sativa) Colombian gold
There never was Afghani and skunk until Sam came along

I’ll try to find it I’ll look it up I did have a screenshot of it and saved it but I wiped my phone clean the other night by accident yeah I know it sounds fucking stupid but I hit the wrong fucking button :rofl::rofl::person_shrugging:t2:
