Where is the pine?

[RedEye69]

Back in the late 80's-early 90's we used to get some light green VERY piney smelling and tasting weed around here. I can't seem to find anything at any seed banks that seems to be the same. Anyone know of anything close? Also is the Skunk#1 the same extremely STINKY skunk we used to get back then?

I know that herb. We call it pine tree buds around here... beautiful 'nooks' (lol our local term for Canadian commercial) with a lovely dusty pale green appearance and strong pine scent. It's certainly still being grown. And I am virtually certain I stumbled across something in a seed catalogue that struck me as, 'oh holy crap that looks like the nooks'.... I have to go hunt around a minute. That stuff is GREAT. One of my favorite tasting smokes EVER.
As for Skunk #1, it should be but one of the seedbanks I believe is offering something called 'The Pure' which is (if I remember correctly) a backcrossed skunk and an Afghani ancestor...

Exile- Magus- Warlock X (NLxWW) "earthy pine"
Silver HAze- sensi- "spiced pine"
Not what I was looking for though. The one I've had is pine, but breaking it up gives more of a pine detergent scent, like Pine-Sol.

mmmmm, yum!

About 15 years ago I worked at a gas station and one of the mechanics there had a hook-up of the "pine tree" weed. That was some of the best sh*t to smoke and the smell...
/wipes drool off bottom lip
was killer. Super duper skunky, plastic bags kneeled to it's aroma.

Ontario seedbank has an outdoor variety called "northern pine". It is cheap as well at I believe 60$ for 30 seeds. Perhaps this is close?

Well hell, 60 bucks for 30 seeds it would be worth it to give it a run.
60 Canadian? Is like that 3 fiddy US? kidding.

Sounds like a commercially-oriented strain to me! Pine... Canadian... meant for outdoor (which is where I am told the pine tree buds are grown, outside)...

If that's the stuff, I'm all over it like a pair of wet shorts.

"Fast Pine (from Ontario's Best)

Outdoor Only



Developed for outdoor climates in Ontario, Canada.

Gets very bushy and generally large when given plenty of space.

End of harvest falls in the mid-September but as is often the case it can also withstand small periods of frost which happens at the end of September.

"

Im thinking of trying some of these....you guys think its a waste throwing some outdoor at this point??

[RedEye69]

Hmmm, may have to try one of these and see.

Yeah if I grow next summer I will definetly add some pines to them menu. Too late this year.
