Hahaha...I've seen so many posts and all the let downs. I don't even know if what I have is the "roadkill" of the 90s yet. That's why I called it by it's real name, Super Skunk. We never called it roadkill skunk because roadkill is redundant. It smelled like a a rotting skunk on the road, or a skunk that just sprayed. But it was just called Skunk or Super Skunk around here. I never heard the term roadkill skunk until searching the internet, looking for "the old skunk."
Roadkill skunk is just a description, not any one strain or phenotype. It is also a marketing term used in the cannabis industry to make $. We've all seen a lot of examples of the industry bastardizing terms and products, renaming strains, the works.
I'm not a big time breeder, I don't sell clones on the web, I'm not looking to cash in on some shangri-la strain. I don't even want recognition or people to know who I am lol. I know it exists, I've smoked it, I've seen it growing. I want to find it and preserve it, and smoke some with everybody.
What I do know is that this came from a very reputable source. Their family has been growing cannabis for many generations. Also, being on the reservation, they weren't subjected to the iron fist of the law like many of us. So if there's any place it would be safe, it would be on the reservations, or deep in the mountains/hollers/farmlands, away from prying eyes and noses.
I made the conscious decision to get rid of the Sour Diesel in early 2010s, because I had to protect my interests and not get busted. I didn't know as much back then, and I should've kept it side by side with my other strains. One of the hardest lessons I've had to learn about preserving old genetics.
There is no doubt in my mind this is the real Super Skunk. I'd guess that it's the parent of the Mass Super Skunk, but I didn't speak to the grower directly about it yet. Hard to say just based on seeing it in person, because we're in the northeast and very close to Mass.
One thing I can say for sure is that I indeed have a 90s super skunk in my possession, a 30 year old heirloom clone.
