This one has had an orange/amber glow to the trichs the whole time flowering. Looks like she’ll be finishing in a couple weeks or less to me. I have two females both have a similar citrus smell...not sprite (lemon lime) but more mango. The other one (not photo’d) seems like it will be a EAB67E8B-D876-48B7-BD41-6707BA90D05E.jpegpretty big yielder.

well i had 4/5 males so far with eternal sunshine, one revegged dude busted nanner clusters so i tossed him. wont be working that line as planned, kinda bummed. I have some SSDD f3 brewing up, found a kushy buttery ssdd f2 and a nice sativa looking male with a kushy stem rub to dust her with. also hit a secret chief pheno with the same ssdd f2 male.

popped the rest of my drunken parrot and some banana punch x 88g13hp to make up for the recent run of males. I have ran a ton of bodhi gear and cant say i really have a least favorite strain, maybe eternal sunshine now LOL. But ill give that another try in soil, maybe it didnt like coco and the reveg much.. But gotta say my favorites have been SSDD, black raspberry, secret chief and spirit train. Hashplant 4 busted nuts while others were fine. Black ras seemed sensitive but damn its worth the terps alone. so for that format that was goin around heres my fav/least favorites

top 3 bongsmilie ;) also not really in order, depends on the day
1. SSDD (kushy butter pheno)
2. Secret chief
3. Black Ras
4. Spirit train (this and secret chief have been most stable for me, not a nanner yet and ive beat the shit out of em)

least favorites/intersex:
hashplant 4 (pollen sacs on lowers)
eternal sunshine (nanners on reveg)

I would genuinely like to know what the bodhi community consensus is when they grow out a pack.

Do most like the hunt for that keeper pheno? Do most like to grow packs based on previous growers experience?

I would also like to clarify, I am talking about everything outside Supernatural Selections and Nierika Seed Trust.

With any pack, I of course look for a keeper pheno to run for a while. From Bodhi packs specifically I wanna find “keeper males” (i.e resin being #1 priority, mold resistance being #2).

I’m a lil bored of just growing smoking and repeat. I hear Bodhi and so many others talk about the hidden treasures to be found in S1s F2s “true F1s” and so on... I wanna see what that’s all about.

I’d like some opinions on a topic, and it’s a touchy subject.

Some Bodhi strains have great names and are absolutely worth keeping. But others have names that people don’t exactly connect with, and this causes people to overlook them if they are on a shelf.

On top of this, most of B’s crosses have so much pheno/chemotype variation. This creates a situation where my Soul Mate may be totally different than someone else’s selected cut of Soul Mate.

This brings me to the question: Is there any ethically appropriate method to which one could create their own name for a cut, while still displaying the breeder’s strain name and lineage? I use Soul Mate as an example because this is a name that just didn’t generate interest. It didn’t matter how good the bud was. It was never a first choice with buyers when they were presented a list of available cultivars.

So i guess.. Would assigning an official title to the cut be un-ethical if the breeder given strain name and lineage are printed on the packaging of the product? I just feel like the name “Soul Mate” completely misses the mark when it comes to representing the extreme pinesol leaning phenos I have found in those packs.

I have felt the same about granola Funk, garfunkle, etc. The original name “Disco Biscuits” was so much more fun than Granola Funk. Trash plant is waaaay better than Garfunkle.

Using your example, if I saw "Soul Mate (pinesol pheno)" on a package/pack, you'd have my full attention honestly. Or even "Soul Mate (xyz cut)". I like seeing the official title on products, even if the name sucks. But that's my personal preference. I'd be less inclined to buy if something was simply renamed; and you'd lose me as a customer if I found out after the fact.

Also on the topic of personal preference, Granola Funk is super appealing to me as a name. I would totally pass on "Disco Biscuits". Though I'd probably pass on Garfunkle too, while at least showing some interest in "Trash Plant".

We have confirmed three vigorous girl Guava Wookie at 12 days flower. Bushy with nice strong branches for LST or Hillbill's 50 Shades Of Grey Training. Right now they appear mid hybreed. Growing fast, these have been very vigorous from the start.

Broke one bud on my 20 day Black Triangle but early enough for the rest of this big plant to compensate. Large plant leaning apparently to the OG side. This will be the biggest girl in the tent.

4 Starflight Guava in veg getting close to first up pot.

3 Lemon Hashplant v2 are up in red Solos.

I had a BT just like you describe Bill. Favorite Bodhi plant I’ve grown yet, I think you’ll be pleased

Instead of keeping mothers, have you guys considered selfing your keeper instead? Kinda makes sense if you have limited space. That's what I'm planning on doing with my Bubba-leaning Sakura. Then I can hunt through the rest of the pack for a male to breed the S1's with.

i am also waiting on tissue culture to become more simplified for a guy like me

Im keeping mothers but will be S1ing everything I have. Both for backups and to share. I don’t trust tissue culture labs. I would only use them for meristem culture to rid plants of HLV or similar viroids/viruses.

Im sure by now anyone that has grown a lot of good genetics and tried a little breeding for themselves towards their own personal tastes has realized that while there are many various genetic pathways available to us we are really going around in circles in terms of taste/effect.

You will find ballpark effects and terpene profiles that are similar across a fairly wide range of plants, simple descriptors are good ways to generally differentiate what you are going to experience. I realize that Buffalo is probably servicing a dispensary type market and unfortunately many people are affected by marketing and hype. We all here know (probably) that names don’t mean anything in reality. We are experiencing the unfortunate side effect of the name game and hype marketing and probably saturated local markets.

Good weed is good and mids are mids. If that’s how you are making your living you’ll have to do what you need to to separate yourself from the pack or hype your cut, I too would recommend some form of general but clear Sub name such as “Pinesol” cut or possibly a simple archetypical system such as Kevin Jodrey talks about with fruit,earth,gas, etc. I think it’s probably confusing for the average smoker who enjoys ganja a lot but isn’t as nerdy as we are about all this and the name game is throwing them for a loop and they just connect with name branding which is unfortunate but anything in the open market is subject to that I guess. We are probably past the era of OG or cookie or skunk Etc where chemotypes rise to the mainstream public Consciousness after battling it out at the street level and proving their worth in real life terms of direct sales. Now it’s self professed hype and It’s probably hard to navigate to legit quality for young smokers or newbies. Educating dispensaries or the bud tenders working on the front lines and getting them to understand why it’s sweet is probably the call but I don’t know too much about that scene.

I know a lot of people think they understand herb but just blow out their receptors and their ability to ascertain nuance and subtlety in effect. Most of my chronic friends are like this and it’s hard to get them to understand, I think it’s why gassy strains are so popular amongst veteran long time smokers because it will push through tolerance better than fruity strains and I do find Bodhi strains to be more spiritual/vibe driven rather than narcotic. I think a lot of retail/streetsmokers have also dabbled in other drugs and that probably effects their ability to enjoy a more subtle beautiful effect that some of these plants offer.
