My hunt for the elusive 1980 devil skunk

[HotButteredAss]

Week 6 Updates - My search continues for the elusive Alaska Devil Skunk. The last known sniffings were back in 1989. So far in week 6, we have no sniffings of the devil skunk...but it still sniffs of "Frosty Spicy Earth" around here.

Will continue my nasal investigations with updates to follow on the continued hunt for the elusive Alaska Devil Skunk.

I think I need some info on this one; I'm just now hearing about yet another lost Skunk ?? What did it smell like?

Skunky is as. Skunky does

I'm not so sure I'd be able to find a skunk if I did grow one. Mom's dog got after a skunk a month ago and honestly, I could smell it, but it just didn't seem that strong to me. I was there the next morning.

Dad grew the killer skunk in the 80's when I was young, I remember that smell like it was yesterday. Maybe after being around weed for almost a half century, I'm just desensitized to the skunk scent.

Have a bunch of skunk/roadkill crosses I'm going to run outdoors next summer. We'll see if I get anything close.

That's funny how we both have a memory of smelling the real deal back in the day haha.

Not sure how I missed this.

I've never paid that much for seeds. I'd have to get a whole lot richer before I start.

Don't have a lot of hope in finding a real skunk but I bet I find some stinkers. Wouldn't be surprised to find a good variety also.

Only skunk strain I've ever grown was a Super Skunk, still have some of it, well over a year in jars. Sister popped one opened and said "Wow that's really skunky", I sniffed and thought she was out of her mind, not a hint of skunk hit my sniffer. I don't care for it although the high is nice, I've better things to smoke, most likely will go into the next bubble run.

I feel like I could show you a jar with legitimate Skunk odor in it, but it would not be JUST the smell of Skunk. I remember what it smells like from being a kid and not ever having smoked it, but having smelled it when I was little and thinking someone hit a Skunk down the road. I know it used to be around, but now, the closest I've found personally, was one that was mainly cat piss / urine / dirty litter box, with a Skunk back end.

I ran AK’s Hawaiian Catpiss, not even close to that smell, disappointed enough to send
them packing!
Anyone interested, management might still has them?
