1970s collection.
Skunk and the Afghani arrival.
The 70s is where breeding became breeding. Travelers brought seeds back. Sam Selezny took an Afghani x Acapulco Gold x Colombian Gold and locked it into Skunk #1 by 1978. Afghani indica entered the western record. The Dutch coffee shops were five years away.
Two strains from this era live in our current catalog. Hindu Kush, a pure landrace from the mountains that border Afghanistan and Pakistan. Mazar I Sharif, an Afghani hash-line from Balkh province. And the Orange Skunk pheno of Sam's original Skunk #1 work, which technically lands at the very end of the decade.
These are not modern hybrids dressed up in vintage marketing. They are the parent stock that everything in the 90s catalog was built from.
