What is it that you want to hear? I think there are two approaches:Can anyone speak about F2ing SSDD? Really tempted to give it a bash after I've picked a mom from my Goji F2s
To really find the GEM may take years ....and usually a shit show of candidates to pick from ....and be prepared for adding on new room to keep candidates males and femalesWhat is it that you want to hear? I think there are two approaches:
1. Pick your favorite female(s) and favorite male(s) and pollinate
2. Run an open pollination with all plants and then select the mothers (and seeds) whose structure/flower . you like the most. This will give you the greatest variety but also conserve the maximum genetic potential. If you aren't well versed in picking males or don't have time to flower them out to completion, I think this is the best bet.
As a rookie, the 2nd option will be my route with a number of Bodhi's appalachian crosses and planned mashups
Have you read this thread? There are a large number of posters who've given feedback on their favorite SSDD phenos. The muffin pheno and the wizard hat are considered two of the best from SSDD.I personally make batches of S1s and F2s with my favourite ladies and make F3s from my favourite from each batch. However I had a wide assortment of ladies from the gojis, from more indica dominant bushes to floppy purple ladies.
I was hoping someone could provide some insight as to what to look out for from the SSDDs, if there was anything particularly noteworthy when hunting.
2100 pages is a significant amount to read, which is why I was asking for specific feedback instead of taking a few months to read the thread.Have you read this thread?

Nah, that's not what I'm after. I can really find the GEM in my small spaces. I'll be happy with the best I can find and I'll keep my numbers relatively modest. Once Trump/congress get cannabis removed from the federally banned substances list, I may look into keep a "real" room. Until then, my small tents keep this hobby going for me.To really find the GEM may take years ....and usually a shit show of candidates to pick from ....and be prepared for adding on new room to keep candidates males and females
Good luck it a lot of fun but lots of work
Understood and I hope people do the work for you. Another approach is to use the search button. SSDD will return a ton of hits and you'll find many people recounting their favorite phenos in the last 200 pages of this thread. Even more if you're ready to scour deep.2100 pages is a significant amount to read, which is why I was asking for specific feedback instead of taking a few months to read the thread.

Oh we are just in such an extensive thread and a open question like yours would be better answered via search as there will be more then one opinion expressed on your question ...maybe if not then I start my own thread and most send me back to threads where the question was answered .Sorry, didn't realise we're not allowed to ask questions here.
Doesn't seem like it from the response. F2 phenos from one strain out the 100+ of Bodhi's stable seemed specific enough to warrant asking, but I guess that's just how it is huh.Oh we are just in such an extensive thread and a open question like yours would be better answered via search as there will be more then one opinion expressed on your question ...maybe if not then I start my own thread and most send me back to threads where the question was answered .
Hope ya find what ya need ...
Thanks guy, super helpful!! Much appreciated!@DonnyDee
I have grown SSDD for a minute and have F2 seeds from several runs. It's a stable strain - it's why I like it so much. All F2s that I have grown out have been a very good representation of the strain. As mentioned, wizard hat and muffin are something to look out for -- but honestly, it's all good. I have found some of the best SSDD smoke to be the smaller nugs versions...they're always good smoke. There's a green crack pheno I absolutely love - skinny leaves and very hairy and doesn't put on any weight until the very end. She is wonderful and rare.
@Don't Panic its Organic
any of what you listed would be good - that's why we are all Bodhi fans. Some of your requests are pretty much in regard to all cannabis and dependent on your veg time. Specific medical requirements are subjective to the person - you'll need to find something to work for you. I have enjoyed SSDD medicinal aspects as she does hit a lot of the boxes for me. To pick one for you, I'd go with Space Monkey. Others will disagree. Good luck.
"Wizzard hat"!! That's the reference I've been trying to think of for the shorter cut I have. I knew I'd seen it posted in here a few times but couldn't remember it.@DonnyDee

This is my keeper pheno (Cut #7) from my Deep Line Alchemy #8 testers I ran last summer. I’m a lurker on forums and mostly stick to my IG feed for frequent updates, but I wanted to share my finds with you guys.

There were six females in the seven Seeds I popped for the test run. This girl (#7) had a twin, Cut #1, who yielded less and so wasn’t kept—they both exhibited extreme resin set and a very ‘high frequency’ tropical fruit aroma/taste.
She had a sister every bit her equal, Cut #2 (I’ll find pictures another time), whos only real difference was her taste—she had the most amazing peppery, incense, powdery hash taste. She was kept for further evaluation.
The sister Cuts #3 and #5 were halfway between and great combinations of the fruity and hash types. #5 was better all around in comparison and so was passed to a few friends as a backup and both were discarded.
Cut #4 was the lone male. He was discarded.
Cut #6 was a strange outlier in that she was wispy and gangly and didn’t grow very easily like the others, and her scent was a real bright zesty lemon peel type of thing—very interesting. But she was trash.
Should be getting some new testers in soon, as well.
Snoogens.
