Two years or so ago Mota was selling SSSC 89 Skunk #1 beans. look him up, I'm sure he could dig something up somewhere. I missed them and never tried hard enough after that.
Do you have a time frame of when you will be hitting your clone and/or clones with Pollen?

i will be hitting the one clone with pollen in 14-21 days, depending on how the buds develope. She is getting large and bud set is taking hold. I will take some pics today.
the other 9 clones are vegging for another 10 -14 days before they will be put into flowering they will be pollenated by a different source of Skunk#1 pollen said to be from 1987 male. I will continue looking for seeds and pollen until there is a perfect match. The Preservation of this Skunk#1 89' must continue until it is perfect. I want to share this one for sure,, would be a total loss if no one else gets her.
My Skunk#1 89' has a hell of a stretch, ending around 3x its size when flowered or more., nothing like the indica dominant versions. Very sweet with strong skunky undertones, it is more the sativa side of Skunk#1. Very small leaves with huge buds ,, almost no trim. Logically, it shouldn't even grow like this,,, LOL.

The Skunk #1 I had also had a big stretch. This is going to be very interesting and I think that any and everyone whom is truly looking for quality old school Skunk #1 lines should keep up with your projects.
I have interest within which male's pollen gives you closest to your original mothers? I really want to see what the offspring are like from that 1987 male. I think that you are going to be truly satisfied with the initial Pollen sticking that you do in the next 14-21 days.
Sounds cool. I would like to see that and some S1s of the female.

Day 21 of 12/12 she is towering over the DC now,, she was about 3 inches shorter! 2 weeks ago. Bud Set is taking hold and stretching has slowed. Now she will begin to fill out, this plant is really interesting to watch as the flowers grow huge from nothing and little leaf. I will keep you updated.

hey buddy, island sweet skunk was brought to bc in the 70's . it was an og california skunk #1. its yields, smell and potency still please everyone. i dont know if sam has worked with it or knows more history on it. but its been bred on vancouver island for over 30 years and is available from vancouver seed bank and in seed co in vancouver. another option you have is take cuttings, buy some "stamenit" , and make all female seeds from your lil guys.

Do You think if you could get a clone and stress the hell out of it like putting it in very cold temps and or stuffing with the light cycle during flowering may bring on male flowers ?
Yup, thats one way, some people stick the lights on in the middle of the night cycle or some do 6/6/6/6 on off day night cycle

i have my own way of making S1 seeds ,, so dont worry it will be done next. But just for information purposes, My SK#1 89 is very hard to stress, it has never thrown out male flowers even in extreeme flowering times 80+ days, i ran it that long to find out how ripe she can become before getting too ripe. I also experienced a digital timer mess up which would randomly turn on the light for a min or 2 durning the dark cycle every hour or so for 3 weeks before i realized it. Still no male flowers from stress,, it would seem she is very stable. That is why I will use my method to make FEM seed.

Well shit, you know that makes me wonder about my heritage of my Skunk#1,, i knew about ISS before but never thought about the fact that mine came from a breeder in BC. It is unknown if he may have used the ISS to make this version of SK#1, as he prolly had access to it,,, But he did specifically say the seeds I got where Pure Offspring from Skunk#1 89' Mother and Father. So, i guess I just might have to look at the ISS for a match point, as it seems to be more on the Sativa side like mine.
Humm, the Island Sweet Skunk available from Next Gen, states that the genetics are:
Genetics: Skunk, Grapefruit Indica, mostly sativa
Not Pure Skunk#1,, not really what I am looking for,, unless there is another Pure Skunk#1 version of ISS. What about PURE CHEESE? The UK SK#1 clone? Damn i just want to find some old ass seed stock from some PURE SKUNK#1. I hope the pollen I am getting will produce what i am looking for. I will update every week from now to keep you updated on her flowering progress.

ive never read that, to my knowledge, the iss is pure, totally mostly sativa, i have 1 o.d. and 3 indoors. its very old old school skunk, never hybridised, its sweet like the name, not sour like the 90"s skunk craze. if you love yer 89er, iss is og cali sk1 from war vets who moved to the bud capital. its very nestalgic for me too, thats why i keep it around. monster dense nugs for a almost pure sative;-) i think jordan and federation offer it too. ive grown grapfruiut, it aint 100%

if you want to keep the mom, making seeds isnt gonna do it for you. just make a large batch of clones and gift them to some reputable folks you know. you could also just throw ur mom into flower and keep a few clones as moms. no need to keep a single plant for decades, especially when u are worried about losing that plant. just make more moms...problem solved 
and im a little surprised at your brushing off of sams response. not too smooth...

I have been working with the same Skunk #1 strain for about 10 years. Sensi Seeds had the original strain (I believe. correct me if I am wrong) but I don't believe they are advertising it as Skunk #1 anymore.
If they (or anyone else) does have any true Skunk #1 seeds, I would be wanting to talk to you...
