I'm looking for any information pertaining to this strain, be it mythical in origin or factual. I live in Oregon, Eugene to be precise and there is a particular pheno I'm interested in that used to be mass produced somewhere in this area. In the late 90's and early 00's we used to get a lot of this flower around town. As described in the Cannabibble vol. #1 by Jason King it reeked of skunk. The terpene profile was so strong on this stuff it didn't really matter how well it was sealed, it would stink up entire rooms. Another thing I remember about the flowers we used to get was how much sugar leaf was on the buds. No matter for us as we'd smoke it just the same as if it were flowers. It was absolutely loaded with resin. Perhaps the high oil content combined with the leafiness was the reason for why it was so often not cured completely. Many of the samples we got were moist and fluffy (just as described by Jason in the cannabible) suggesting that production was occurring somewhere in the near vicinity of Eugene. However if one took the extra 7-14 days it usually took to dry the flowers they took on an unbelievable tackiness. Buds would stick the the bag and you'd have to literally peel them off. The flowers were so fluffy that an 1/8 could fill a bag the same way a half ounce of most nugs would. 1/8 ounces were huge. (yeah, this was back in the day when people bought and sold 1/8's)
The high was also unique. It was full balanced with almost equal parts head and body, but the stuff was strong. Like warm and fuzzy vibrating legs strong. Real dreamy stuff.
I'm not expecting to acquire a cut through my enquiries here. I'm mostly just curious to see if there's anyone else out there who can remember this particular pheno and if anyone know's anything about it or what happened to it. It's almost unmistakeable based on how leafy it was, and how much it reeked of skunk. It was also a light lime green color with no purpling or red. I don't like the thought of losing something that so many people enjoyed for such a period of time. If someone decided to yank the cut off the market and hoard the gene sequence that's something I could live with and understand. However if we've lost this strain due to logistics it'd be a little disheartening. I suspect the former is most likely the case. I ass u me it has been selected for someone's breeding program and the plant was lost to the public. Perhaps it was just too leafy for a commercial strain. And maybe just too stinky for mass production during it's time.
What continues to baffle me however is how few people have actual answers to the enquires of this strain. It's taken on a mythical form and I'm just waiting for someone to come out of the woodworks like some kind of unicorn with answers to what this strain was and where it went.
Shit....I'd be happy with just a bowl of it or a picture to confirm it's still alive and kicking.
Peace.

I'll go look for that other thread you yanked that comment from, thanks.
