bodhi seeds

Amos Otis said:
Actually not that many. I ran Goji for a long time, and make sure to have it / and crosses to pop. I've got a stellar More Cowbell just a couple weeks out, and just flipped 4 Satsuma. Posted pics of a gorgeous Dank Sinatra f1 in the Basement Dank Genetics thread; the smoke from a sister has been great. I got some real nice buds from a couple Apollo 11 x SL testers

i seem to like the hashplant crosses the most, but so far ive ran space monkey, jungle spice, secret chief, cobra lips, dream beaver, blueberry hashplant, guava hashplant, lazy lighting, space cake & love triangle. currently have space monkey & black triangle in veg. only one i wasnt impressed by was lazy lighting. i figure that goji & ssdd are stalwarts for bodhi, so i have crosses of both to try later on.

I also have a couple HP crosses waiting in line and a pck. of lazy lighting on the way! :mad: Why did you not like those?

What are you looking for first, yield or quality? Fruity or Earthy???

For what it's worth, I am after the Wookie crosses. I ran a good deal of Appy and Lotus crosses, but not really much on your list. I am looking at Neroli '91 and it's the same mother as The Fuzz. Terpenado should be a killer and if it is anything like Black Raz, then it will be great. They are both Goji f2 crossed with Wookie. The majority of my next run is going to be like 75% Black Raz and I am buying another pack of it tomorrow to pheno hunt more.

I am probably going to get Black Raz and Lavender Aura with Dream Lotus and Solo's Stash for freebies. The honorable mention list:
Neroli '91
Space Monkey
Terpenado
Lavender Jack

Freebies:
Prayer Tower
Elfinstone
Strange Brew
Cobra Lips

I am running space monkey now, 2 weird looking girls from 4 seeds (plus 2 studs that I discarded for lack of space). Black raz is coming with the LL that I mentioned above, so I´m glad to read your raving review.

It seems like SSDD has been restocking for the last 2yrs since I heard that rumor??? There are still Appy crosses that get new seed drops like Mother's Milk and Bingo PJ's... Why would someone retire a plant that has been a cornerstone of their breeding unless they found something that was much better? Wookie

He lost the Appy dad and retired snow lotus. He made a bunch of seed that's why you see them restocking.
Wookie surprised me I didn't know what to expect but have been blown away by the flavor.

I don't exactly like coming on here bashing strains because I really think that you will not get "THE" pheno with every seed pack. The Lazy Lightning is just more of a personal stash because of the small yield, the runt that I found was a top-notch runt! If I was growing just for myself, I might have kept it but I was running Black Raz next to it. To be honest, Black Raz bumped off some of my previous clones that I had. It was hard to justify keeping any of my kushy strains next to Black Raz. The one that I got smelled earthy and a box of new shoes. It has a fast finish time for the size of the buds that it puts out and it's frosty. The only thing that it was missing was an A+ smell, but that is why I am going to hunt through another pack. Black Raz is one of the better seed packs that I have ran through in a while. Even the ones that I didn't keep were chunky and faster, I just found a huge beast of a plant. It might not be the biggest, but the quick flower time makes up for it! It reminds me of some Critical crosses, which I found a lot of Critical crosses smell like new shoes too...

lazy lighting wasnt as frosty as space cake, it didnt have the good feelings of dream beaver, nor the power of blueberry hashplant & secret chief. the smells of space monkey to me were better, and jungle spice was just utterly unique with the terps it put out. cobra lips was gassier & stronger than lazy lighting also. lazy lighting also didnt fare as well under the uvb i ran indoors. i need to run it again, i still have 7 or so beans left.

are we lucky to find keepers in 1 or 2 packs?

Good thing that I only grow for myself, and quantity is not up on my list. I also do a bit of pollen chucking, and have some Goji x Jabba and Goji F2s (one male, two female phenos) waiting for a SOG experiment (keeping a clone of each female as discard if it comes to that).

Let´s see how mine comes out, but this bums me a bit. Without doubt, it is way better than the bricked seeded bud I´ve had to smoke for so many years. Some time ago I posted a photo of some seedlings, of which I still have 2 female SSDDs, beavers and monkeys. We´ll see how this comes out.

please dont be bummed out, you might have a killer pheno in your pack that you can contribute more time than i could to. it wasnt a total lost, it just got overshadowed by the other stellar choices i dedicated my time & energy to. maybe in another 6 months hopefully i can type something about lazy lighting that changes my opinion. do well with your choices sir.

My first pack of SSDD had 7 males and 3 females. I didn't find anything noteworthy in that pack but I know that there are good ones out there, so I popped 2 more packs. This time, I have 7 females lol... They are only a week or two into flower...
I can tell you this much, Black Raz will have something noteworthy in the pack. I am sure that I had a sweeter Black Raz in the pack but the size of the OG flavored one got my interest. People are actually asking for more of it, so the smell/flavor is not bad, just not A+... If I was starting all over with strains, Black Raz would be one of the first that I buy. Hell, I am buying it again because if I could find a Raz sharpie pheno that is the same size as the one that I have now, it would be worth getting my camera fixed to show it off!

Look for that short and squat Lazy Lightining for the strongest flavor. I am sure that a longer veg period would have helped... It really had that OG cologne smell. Menthol, pine, earthy, and I didn't notice any black licorice or spice. I thought that it was going to be more fuely... Silver mnt was more gassy. Really, Lazy Lightining and SunShine#4 had about the same flavors, but SS#4 had more yield and variety of phenos. I had a SS#4 that was more lemony kush like CaliConnection's Jedi Kush.
 
Get Dank Zappa if you can find it. 1988-g13/HP X U Dub. Sprouted 1 seed and my pheno was a stunner. As a exp. grower you know when you come across superior genetics. Tasted kinda like stomach acid that you burp up with a nice up high. Yield was very good. Had some audio distortion to the high. Smoked some with a cat who had been to Colorado and smoked the banner, train wreck, GSC, flo ect ect He told me it was the best he had ever smoked. Just cracked a single Thunder wookie bean so i am certainly excited about what the future holds in that regard.
 
Sunshine Daydream 69 days. Out of five females so far, I got one of the blueberry muffin pheno and the rest were duds in the smell department. Those have some burned rubber and a nutty / oat kind of smell that I think is from the Appy dad because my Mothers Milk had the same smell. The one below is pretty decent but not a keeper IMHO. Flipping another run of the blueberry muffin one after this one comes down.

I am getting the idea that breeders drop certain strains because they feel like that they are not worthy of their new gear. For example, I see that only a few select Appy crosses are still being restocked and I have a feeling that Lotus crosses are going to do the same. I went from the mind set of thinking that I am missing out on older strains to thinking that there must be a reason why Bodhi is not restocking certain strains. I have been sitting on a pack of Sumatra and Dream Beaver waiting for it to restock before I pop my current pack. If Bodhi is still making SSDD seeds and he still has the resources to make the other 2, then there must be a reason why he stopped. I have a strong feeling that Bodhi is happier with the newer Wookie crosses than say like Dream Beaver, I could be wrong though...

Or it could be that he lost the Appy male... Who's to say?

Based on my limited knowledge of Bodhi and plant breeding, if you aren't running a full pack, your experience with a cross isn't going to be representative of its full potential.

This is true of any cross regardless of the breeder. No cross has a 100% likelihood of producing plants 100% of the customers will like. When it comes to cannabis, people have wildly different tastes and preferences; and unless you are growing 6+ generation IBL crosses that you bred yourself, there is a chance you will get plants you don't like. This is why most of the complaints about Bodhi are from people who grow 3-5 seeds of one cross and don't find a keeper. In my opinion, these people would be better off growing from feminized seeds.

There's also a good amount of people who just plain don't know what they are doing, that are growing more advanced or sensitive strains badly and blaming the breeder. Just as an example, I once gave a bunch of cuts i had to a self proclaimed "master grower" and after his harvest he accused me of giving him bad genetics, and told me the only one that was any good was my Northern Lights cut. That cut was far from the best, i grew it for hash, but it was super reliable, hardy, and would perform well even in the worst environment. When i saw his grow, he was trying to grow 3'-4' tall plants in 2 gallon plastic grow bags of Fox Farm under a 1000w HPS without ventilation.

Lastly you have people who buy strains without having enough knowledge of the parents and just plain have unreasonable expectations. "Oh, that cookies x og cross you grew didn't yield well? You don't say...."
 
So... what is everyone ordering today? As I've been saying, I am looking for better yielders this time around. I am pretty set on buying:
Black Raspberry (goji raspberry f2 x wookie 15)
Mountain Temple (Appalachia x hybrid of green crack and tres dawg)

Freebies:
Prayer Tower (indica) (Lemon Thai Indy x Appalachia)
Elfinstone (Sweet Skunk Appalachia)

I've been doing a ton of research, so I hope I am making the right choices!

I thought the Mountain Temple was a Temple x Appy. What you have written is an Appy x Appy. I've read all the pages of every bodhi thread I've found and most people liked the Silver Mountain (SSH x Appy) over the Mountain Temple.
 
Chem 91 Jb x Snow Lotus was a good pick as a freebie. She was nice, big fluffy and frosty buds with a greasy/oily feel and smells of sour metallic chem to strawberry chem with a solid stone of 8.5 - 9. Ran 5 seeds, 4 females, 3 sour metallic chem pheno ranging in size 2.5 - 3.5 feet largest yielding for me biggest one was 5 oz in a 5 gallon cloth pot. The Strawberry Chem Pheno was 2.5 feet tall lower yields maybe 2 oz but its hard to say since I kept smoking it. Great bag appeal on both just really frosty. I'll look to see if I have any photos of them.
