THE TRUE SKUNK #1 was created in Cali back in the 70's by the skunk man, and contrary to it's name it does not carry the oder of skunk but a rather sweet order. The skunk #1 was brought to Holland in 1985 and it is a 75 sativa 25 afghani indica not a land race strain, check it out for yourself. this was also the very first strain to win the high times cannabis cup in 1987.

So djore113, maybe I am not as uneducated as you think, there were plenty of hybrid skunks that had the skunk smell back in the day, maybe you were smoking something else.
