Earlier this year I pheno hunted the following:
Sunshine Daydream
Lemon Hashplant V2
Cherry Lotus
Soul Mate
Final selections have been made for all strains. I was looking for ease of growth/quality of plant structure, quality of smoke, terpene profile, and yield.
Sunshine Daydream was a disappointment, honestly. All 5 plants that were run had the structure of a bouquet of limp noodles. Plants would fall over 3 weeks into flower, collapsing under their own weight. This strain absolutely needs a scrog for support. Terpene profile and smell was good. Same with quality of smoke, excellent. Yield was average, not worth the time it took to stake up all of the lanky branches. This is one that needs to be close to the light. Bottom buds do not build mass. Lots of popcorn on all of them. I am keeping the best pheno for a few other runs to see if I can tame it, but I expect to cull this one. The other strains were much much better in almost every way.
Lemon Hashplant 2 was great quality all around. Solid stems, held its weight, great terpene profile and smell, great smoke. I got 4 males and 1 female out of the plants I ran, so I intend on doing another hunt next year since statistics are in my favor for a female heavy crop. All plants had a solid structure and grew with vigor. I would rank my pheno as average, so I cant wait to see what the rest of the seeds have in store for me!
Cherry Lotus was the star of the show here. That fucking Snow Lotus parent he has is an absolute gem. Combine that with the fat cherry yield/terps and boom! All plants had totally different structures and bud development, but all were absolutely fantastic. The expected winner was an absolute frost monster with very fruity terps and a real cherry note. No report on smoke just yet because it is being harvested as we speak. But my lord, what a fantastic strain that has seemingly been slept on. I havent ever seen it discussed here so I took some high quality pictures to share with you all.
Soul Mate was another gem. All 4 females were top notch, with the winner being number 3. Not quite as big for frosty as cherry lotus, but it made up for it in terp and smoke quality. Solid bud all the way down the plant. Stems strong enough to support its own weight. Absolutely nothing to complain about here.
I am currently flowering 4x Granola Funks and 2x Raspberry Hashplants for the hunt. It seems that the luck is not with me for popping hashplant crossesVery few females. 8x Goji OG f2s are also just now breaking soil. High hopes for them.
Also just ordered:
Black Triangle
Strawberry Goji
Cherry Queen
Terpenado
Space Cake
Butterscotch X SSDD
So yeah I guess you could say that I am impressed with Bodhi!
