A Personal Testament of The Validity of Sam Skunkman Quote...

One of the first memorable threads I recall reading was a post by Sam The Skunkman. I forget the exact phrase but was something to the effect of ; You'll noid out so bad after O. HazexSkunk1 that you'll have to request a cleanup on isle 4 because your head just exploded. Most of you will cancel your account and come back 2 weeks later under another username.

At the time. I recognized the name because a buddy had just gave me a pack of HazexSkunk1 seeds. Always being a Sativa guy since I discovered it. I always wanted to pull at least one plant, fully matured. A sublime series of heinous shit happened that prevented me from getting just one to maturity or even close. Nearly 3 years later. I finally pulled a dialed in and mature crop. I first sampled it about a week ago and it's taken that long to admit this but it's funny in hindsight.

I'm completely stressed out over the usual factors and a problematic outdoor thing going on. I think most growers know those factors well.

So I'm already paranoid as a meth-freak. I fire up the celebratory bong. A few days later I start thinking ''they're'' out to get me and they've likely already tapped my ISP and watching every page I look at...I ponder on that awhile. I've thought the same thing recently but not nearly as intense. I had old subs to old forums I'd not been to for ages and would rather forget. I beef up my software and clean a bunch of old files off my computer. I start thinking about ICMAG and as I'm reading a thread. The thought occurred to me I'd better delete my entire account but 10 minutes later. That quote came to mind and I laughed it off and decided against it...Before going back to the original thread I was reading. I deleted the only album I had for good measure...

A week or so later, I can laugh about the whole thing and am not quite as stressed. I feel that quote is right on target. Another few hits or stray thoughts and my account woulda been toast. I've not yet had to request a clean up in isle 4...But I was at a fast food joint speaker/window and had a complete and total mental meltdown whilst speaking to the operator and forgot the English language and words as a whole...I'm staying away from the grocery for the time being.



Just wanted to say to anyone out there who has thought about growing it...It's in my all time favorite 5 and amazing.

If any of you had any sort of idea of what I've gone through to pull off a mature plant. You'd understand why this was so funny and why I'm so happy.

Now, if I can get through the outdoor season intact...I might be able to relax.

I've grown some Thunks. Haven't tried the O'hunk yet but, you make it sound yummy. Where'd I leave those seeds....

Great story. So, how may weeks were you in flower?

.

Also -
how long did you veg, was there much of any branching ?


I've heard awesome things about this strain, but I am not feeling so positive about the whole paranoia and long flower duration - Then again I think most hazes are paranoia inducing - and kind of trippy

I lost track but either 15 or 16.

I'd recommend anyone having them and having the time to dedicate to them, to pop at least one. I could never afford the time to let them mature in the past for a myriad of reasons and situations. I got some half way and some barely into flower but never to maturity.

I'll even go as far as saying it's well worth the past hassles and wait...

If O'hunk is anything like Thunk, expect 20 weeks or so of 12/12.

What was the effect of the Thai? I was just sitting here realizing how potent it is. I get to what I think is a plateau and about the time I start to get comfortable. I head off to yet another plateau...

I've had about 5 different phenos from like 4 different sources. These seemed more toward the Skunk. I have two different phenos outdoors (That will never even think of finishing.) that seem far more Haze.

I put a few outside just to see firsthand, a 20'-30' Haze Tree and see it hit at least it's peak in veg. It was also a disastrous test of sorts that recently ended abruptly and unexpectedly...Another hardship I've had with this plant.

There are 2 major variances in the phenos I've seen. One is tall and tree-like and the other more like a ''grassy'' bush, if that makes sense. All have thin, Sativa leaves but one is especially long and thin.

I only vegged these like 3 days and in soil.

Here are a couple pics.

It was actually Tom Hill's quote regarding his Haze offering... nevertheless we're very glad that you found such a wonderful plant amongst those freebies... keep up the good work! :)

I'm heartbroken! For the last year or so, I had it in my mind it was Sam. Sorry for the mix-up with attribution.

Once more slowly this time, What strain you growing and who's? I've found that matters. Nice outdoors going good luck. Nice pics also.

Once more slowly this time,

My apologies, I hadn't realized I was asked or that it was unclear.


Skunkman's Original HazexSkunk#1. They were some freebie seeds.

There are sativa phenos with a high that's uplifting/euphoria instead of mindracing/paranoia.

Pop some more seeds and take clones of all, then smoke each to find the true keeper pheno and you're golden.

Cuz my friend... if its making you spazz out, that's not your keeper sativa...

The best sativa is PARTY SATIVA WOOOOOOOOOO!

I would consider this euphoric and uplifting. I've just had a few setbacks with an outdoor gig.

With or without it...I still hear the constant roar of helicopters and airplanes right now. Even in my sleep.

I'm be alright come October.
 
why would anybody want to experiance that i hate those kind of highs. losing function, being super self conscious thinking everyone is looking at you and knows your high, having to stay cooped up inside because i cant even go to the grocery store, that sounds like an anxiety attack.
