True, its all good. It´s just that recently I´ve been a bit troubled when I see my seed stash and realize that they are also dying, slowly but still dying, and on the other hand I get a kick when I see them growing, all so different even while being the same plant. Keeping some plants going through generations, but also getting to see more new "individuals", has taught me a lot too.

Running a handful of seeds or even whole packs, instead of a couple of seeds of various strains, has also been fun as I get to know those crosses better and pick something I would like to keep in my stable (which is were my question about keeping cuttings on the fridge came from). Running parts of a pack has the problem that the "keeper" might come out last.

@lukio you actually came to my mind some weeks ago, I just remembered seeing some great stuff in your secret garden thread! Keep it coming!

Sorry for the late reply. The idea just struck me as a solution to the problem of not having a space for males. So I figured to keep the male in a tote in the veg area. I just keep him on a 12/12 by placing a large cardboard box over the tote with the male. Works just fine and allows me to move him around to a separate room to collect the pollen without stirring him up and wandering around.

Lost my male space, due to weather(winter lol). Need 4, for this rounds chuck's, gonna try it out.
I'll keep an eye on your thread?! If ya got one .
Seems a lil risky but definitely doable.

thanks dude! theres a new thread and part 2 is warming up nicely (:

Yeah i get what you're sayin about the seeds, i'm a variety guy and also like collecting (: some people collect baseball cards etc...i collect genetics, but i do fully intend on growing every seed...im not sure i will or can until they legalise in the UK but i'll try.

I'm not a fan of the guys that buy to sell on with a profit when they've sold out, thats a bit mean.

keeping mums/genetics is also an issue of mine, im looking at bonsai mums on shelves...

Goji x Sunshine Daydream, bagseed #3
gsdd3 - Copy.jpg

First of 3 phenos down, little early but I like the structure and nose so put into reveg. Flowered 1212 from seed and putting out some great weighty buds. Not a smooth run due to heat and various pests but looking forward to smoking this cross.

My little Bodhi 1212 from seed binge continues

Do you run 12/12 as soon as the seeds pop or do you run a longer light cycle for a few weeks (until they get a few leaves going) and then flip? I like the idea of 12/12 early on but notice that new seedlings grow a lot faster with some extra light in the beginning

Yeah straight 1212, no veg time at all. People have been doing it for years. I'm using this method to pheno hunt albeit on the small side. Plants are flowered in pots of soil the size of your fist, 35 in a 2x3 at the moment which will be sexed within the next week or two. Running large numbers this way I remove most fans leaves, this keeps humidity and airflow stable. I don't want plants branching, looking for them to grow into one large cola

Not perfect examples but you get the idea,

no pruning, only large fan leaves have been removed.

If you are pheno hunting using 12/12 from seed, how do you take a clone/cutting to keep the pheno going?

Okay, so you do a true 12/12 from seed. I've read conflicting ideas about it from different sources that give a little more light until a few leaves are established and then flip. Didn't make any sense to me either to call it that.

To go through the seeds I have currently I’m popping 3-4 seeds of a strain just as a peak into what the possibilities could be. I’m not super worried about keeping those particular genetics. If/when I find something I like I’ll Open pollinate the rest of my seeds to do a seed increase and then work through that line. I’d rather have 100’s of seeds than 10 seeds. You’ll find a keeper in that seed increase.

I pop 3-4 of a handful of strains and then put them into the “Kumite” where they battle for my adoration and show me their inner beauty. Maybe save some pollen if something is looking good. I’m trying to balance popping new seeds with retaining genetics in seed form via open pollination. To share with the community!

I like the 12/12 thing you are doing for pheno hunting. I may go that route after I’m done testing my current batch.

I reveg, leave a number of bud sites and put under 24 hour light for a week then back onto 18/6. Will see new shoots week 3, take cuts at week 5 / 6 / 7 depending on strain. Got 3 plants from my first 1212 that I'm about to flip.

Do you ever have issues not getting them to reveg successfully? Sounds like an awesome way to phenohunt if it’s reliable for getting cloning after flower.

Alright im sold, never buying anything but american genetics because anything else is a waste of time. This was a freebie, barefootDoc week 6 and already massive frost, this pic does not do it justice. I need one of those macro cameras, is there an app?

if its not too much trouble, please keep us updated about these. i have an 93 yr old aunt that was recently given up on by her doctors due to her msa. her husband, who was adamant about marijuana & it being poison, is now all for it, & it is somewhat up to me to provide cbd oil for her being that i am the closest person he trusts to help. i have bf doc & a few others from bodhi that i need to delve into to heal her. all of my other projects have now taken a backseat. to those i offered f2's to, i apologize, it might be awhile. my great aunt & uncle have now taken the indoor priority of pollen chucking.

Well folks, you win some and you lose some. Here's the Barefoot Doctor report I just posted over @ BB.

Evaluation & Smoke Report​

Strain & Breeder?

Barefoot Doctor by bodhi

Lineage?

Harlequin x Sunshine Daydream

Indoor Grown or Outdoor?

Indoor under 12x Cree 3590 3500K COBs @1400ma

Organics or Synthetics?

Recycled Organic Living Soil (ROLS) in Sub-Irrigated Planters (SIPs)

Harvest size, Bag Appeal & Density

Pheno 1: 95 grams. 6/10 Less photogenic than #3, smaller buds, less frosty. Mostly hard popcorn to 1g nugs.

View attachment 3870522

Pheno 2: TBD – in flower now.

Pheno 3: 125 grams. 8/10 Very pale, but frosty as anything I’ve seen. Larger nugs than #1, very dense. No larf.

View attachment 3870521

Odor Level & Description

Pheno 1: 6/10 Mostly blueberry lemony muffins in flower, it’s cured to a tart berry with fresh cheese, like a Ritz cracker with soft stinky cheese and tart berry jam spread on top. Has some foot funk in the finish.

Pheno 2: TBD

Pheno 3: 6/10 Again blueberry muffins in flower, it’s cured to a sweet blueberry with sour milk or morning breath.

Smoke Report and Ratings (Taste, Effects, Smoothness, Duration, etc.)

Pheno 1: 3/10 Tastes like a sweet cheese with no hints of berry. Very smooth smoke – no coughing or harshness. The effects are where this one falls off a cliff.

DISCLAIMER: I want to make sure everyone understands this is just our opinion and experience - YMMV. While the scissor hash from trimming was pleasant, vaping the cured flower is not.

Immediately upon vaping, we get a fast rush of severe chest tightness and shortness of breath. I’m not prone to anxiety about anything, ever, but this one makes me feel bad physically. It’s not racy or heady at all, there are no forehead or back of the neck tingles. The only way I can describe it is uncomfortable body effects. It gives my lady anxiety and chest pains – feels like she can’t breathe. About 15-20min after toking, sleepiness sets in. It’s narcoleptic. If you can manage to stay awake, or just take a short nap, you feel drugged and incoherent with chest heaviness for about half an hour to an hour. It doesn’t do much for headaches or body pain.

Pheno 2: TBD

Pheno 3: 2/10 Pretty much the same as #1, but stronger. It’s not pleasant at all.

Medicinal value?

I can imagine it might have different effects for different people, but it has no medicinal value for us when smoked. We’re going to turn it all into RSO to see if that will moderate the unpleasant effects.

Keeper?

I'm going to give each pheno another shot at flower, but right now this is not a keeper. While the other ladies in the tent thrived, the Barefoot Doctors were never happy in flower. I suspect they’re either pH or light intensity sensitive. We’ll wait to see what #2 has in store in another month or so.
