That crazy vancouver guy
Guest
a friend I have made in the recent past, sent me half 
the beans he had recently acquired himself...
some Original 1978 Mendacino Joe Skunk #1... the legendary Road Kill Skunk of the '70s :hubba:
in case ya didn't see this already, here's some info by the man himself, Ohsogreen, about the jewel he preserved and passed on to my 'little bro' 'n me...
FROM THE BREEDER~~~~~~
got them through a friend of " Mendacino Joe " in 78, we drove from southern Cali up to " The Bay Area " and did the deal in a Safeway parking lot.
.
Three main phenos show up consistently :
8 out of 10 - straight up three day old, sun baked, roadkilled, skunk smell. Very thick / dense buds, trim work is a breeze, sugar coated, nice all around buzz, completely able to function, and happy doing whatever it is, your doing.
.
1 out of 10 - the same with a hint of pink grapefruit. The in between pheno, slightly taller, leaves slightly thinner, buds a little more open structure, but good resin production. Less overall weight, but different high. Starts off up, energetic (the need to do something), then settles down to a nice mellow all around buzz an hour later.
.
1 out of 10 - the same with a hint of lemon or citrus, even more Sativa dominant, very thin leaves, very open buds, with an up clear high, I mean up.... it that makes the sky look bluer, you catch yourself watches the clouds drift by and forget everything else, it has you smiling but not like Gomer Pile, very relaxed.
.
Then out of every 50 of these girls, a limburger cheese smelling pheno - extra stanky, extra gooey, with some extra punch. True two toke stuff. Third toke, goodnight Alice... you're out......
.
Take all between 55 and 65 days, beyond that - it gets couch locky....
.
Breeding info : Open pollenated, seeded first group in 1978, 5 dads, 6 moms, made about 500 seeds. Over the next several years, always open pollenated in patches. Four dads minimum, Four moms minimum.
.
In 1984 used last of the 1978 seeds, open pollenated and made another 500-600 seeds. Kept 100 seeds from 1984, until 1989 or maybe 1990, grew all of them out, open pollenated one patch of 10 plants, 3 dads, 7 mom's. Made about 400 seeds.
the legendary Mendacino Joe Road Kill Skunk has been brought back out into the open... and my little bro 'n me are gunna be get'n it out there so more people know what the true indica influenced Road Kill Skunk of the 70's was all about....
