Hello TheVomit,
here are my suggestions:
1. Skunk #1 (Original or Pre-’90s cut)
Terpenes: Myrcene, Caryophyllene
Smell: Pungent, musky, earthy, ammonia-like—true old-school funk.
Note: Modern Skunk #1 seeds are often watered down. Try to find older clones or heirloom seeds from breeders like Mr. Nice or Sacred Seed Co. if possible.
2. Roadkill Skunk (RKS)
Smell: Infamous for being brutally pungent and musky—like dead animal funk.
Rarity: Hard to find legit RKS, but some breeders claim to have stabilized versions.
Look for: Reeferman Seeds, Archive Seeds, or Underground legacy breeders.
Pro Tip: It’s often a pheno hidden in old Skunk #1 crosses.
3. Super Skunk
Genetics: Skunk #1 × Afghani
Smell: Heavy, sour, musky—more earthy and body odor than sweet.
Breeders: Sensi Seeds’ older stock or vintage cuts are best.
4. Cheese (UK Cheese, Exodus Cheese)
Smell: Pungent, funky, footy, almost putrid.
Why it's good: A rare Skunk #1 pheno discovered in the UK in the late '80s—brings that offensive, nose-wrinkling funk.
Find: Cuttings, as many seed versions are fruitier.
5. Mendo Purps x Skunk hybrids
Smell: Earthy, moldy grapes, B.O., and dank cellar musk.
Breeders: Check CSI: Humboldt for good modern reworkings of skunky funk without the candy nonsense.
🧠 Pro Tips:
Avoid strains labeled "Skunk" from modern dispensaries—they're often fruity hybrids with marketing names.
Look for landrace crosses, old cuts, or breeder drops that explicitly say "RKS" or "funky skunk".
Terpene profile to hunt: Myrcene + Humulene + Caryophyllene = earthy, musky, gassy combo.
Ask growers about phenotypes—the stinkiest plants are often selected from a wider genetic pool.
I hope that's helpful! 😘
