I'm sure he got paid for this move. I think it could prove to be a mistake in the long run though. He was one of the most respected breeders and he is being eviscerated on insta right now a lot of people totally denouncing him. Cookies will fade away and will be looked back upon as a stain in Cannabis history. Bodhi had staying power and community adoration and support so to jeopardize that for a quick payout may be good in the short term but could destroy everything he's worked for and stands for in the long run.
Just my two cents.

Not really a win win when we lose a someone as valuable to breeding as bodhi who is preserving alot of old special, untainted genetics.
Now he can make cookie crosses with them all and we can pay 500 for a pack with Berners new rap album. Your right totally Seems like a huge win for the communinty......

time will tell but yeah you could be right
the more I keep hearing negative comments the weirder it does feel
I'm interested to see what will happen with both brands
maybe cookies will change for the better, maybe good stuff will keep coming from bodhi
if neither of these things happen, I'm cool with moving on, Star Wars taught me how to do that after the Disney acquisition
I walked out of TLJ and never even saw Rise of Skywalker. It's cool, there are other movies, and this new crap doesn't erase the goodness that came from the original trilogy. Just my hot take.
Edit: just heard berner’s sound for the first time yeah no thanks

We don't "lose bodhi" just because he's making strains for someone.
If you've heard bodhi and know what he's about, you should be confident in him, his work, where he goes and what he does and has done.
What the backlash really boils down to, is people looking at the negatives, instead of the positives. People like to project their own insecurities, jealousies, misunderstandings, judgements, all kinds of things onto their perceptions of, well, everything...
People need to chill out, stop caring so much about things all the time, and everyone do their part to make the world a Better Place!!!

Vibes don’t pay bills or put food on the table, money does. It’s not really that big of stretch, what more can they each do individually? It’s just weed, we all are just stoners on one level or another, just more division in the ranks, although I get why some might be unhappy, let it ride

I agree with you to an extant
I've heard bodhi speak lots. Listened to many hours of podcasts with him. Lovely fella. I honestly hope this put him and his family in a better position and life is easier for him.
Does that mean I have to support his decision? Nope, it doesn't.
And the only positives I see from this is bodhi getting paid. That's it.
Putting old special lines with cookies isn't going to get us anywhere. We have seen pretty much every cookies variation possible.
He isn't going to "improve" the cookie lines he is just gonna end up further homoginizing and tainting the cannabis gene pool.
This does nothing to advance anything.
So what are the positives?
being honest is not looking for negatives as you put it feel free to think what you like man
Agreed i dont see any positives other than an increase in his personal wealth of course

wealth buys free time to pursue our personal passions. I hope this has positive downstream effects upon Bodhi Seeds
good seeds sell themselves practically im sure plenty of folks will agree

I'd pay twice as much for the pack without the album.

As much as I would hope this to be the case I have a feeling if cookies is now his main source of funds that that will be where his efforts are largely focused. Will mean less time for his own projects.
I really wish he wouldn't mix his older, rarer stuff with cookies.
I would much rather any of his offerings he without any type of cookies/gelatto/skittlez in them personally.

Lord knows you may have the opportunity...
If rumors are true it's beginning to sound like Bodhi may be doing more work for Cookies going forward. I somewhat doubt that means we've seen the end of his own lines, it sounds like there may be a mutually beneficial relationship in the works.
Regardless of what happens, Bodhi's always marched to his own drummer, and he knows better than anyone the challenges of running his breeding operation. I hope whatever happens it all works out to his benefit.

Soulmate was one of my favorites, only ran f2s but had a gassy greasy cheeseburger pheno , kinda piney too, it's actually my profile pic lol. Had a knockout stone to it, I need to revisit those.
Since you run from seed do you f2 a lot of your stuff? Have you taken anything to like f4 or beyond?

Oh man. What a bunch of fucking crybabies. Boo hoo hoo. The cute, shy one in my favorite boy band cut his hair. Self reliance is a phrase you need to check out. You can make your own seeds. You can breed the ones you bought and find new stuff. Life is full of shit. Everyone already has a full plate of it. I send Bodhi LOVE! Good luck, brother. I think of what he has already done for my garden. Good enough for me, man. Thank you! I hope for the future, but there are no guarantees.
You are no one. You have zero influence on this mans life or decisions. We are all in this alone. Don't judge this man for his decisions. He may not really even have a choice (free will in philosophy thread.) This could be what is supposed to happen. Chew on that.

This pretty much sums it up. A lot of people don’t care or don’t think it’s a big deal, but Bodhi you’re dead to me. I won’t ever buy another pack. There’s still a couple breeders that have balls and won’t sell out to daddy bumner. Ranting at this point, but this shit really sucks. Bro could’ve increased the price of his packs but he made a choice and we aconsumers can make our own.

Flouncy flouncy. How will he ever recover from this?
Y'all are insane.
Bodhi seeds isn't going anywhere or changing.
He's just making some strains for someone else on the side, get the fuck over it. Where were all you complaing about bodhi's cookies crosses he's already made?? I think there's like 8 of em already. Cool plants for those who like them, not my cup of tea personally. It's someone's medicine, respect that. Yes, most gsc genetic hybrids are "the same" as each other and we don't need more of them, but bodhi seeds exists already and will continue to exist, with all his amazing work, 99% of which has no gsc genetics in them, and those few gsc hybrids for those who love them, I heard the more cowbell ogkb remix is pretty badass if you do.
The first bodhi x berner plant is a zkittlez lavender lemonade, looks and sounds amazing. Zkittlez is an unknown if it has actual relation to the GSC gene pool or not, personally I think it does not, after growing and smoking it, I expected to hate it and was pleasantly surprised that the terps were really awesome, and the effects are nice and centered, not too strong but not too weak, a happy vibe high to me

This is fried, he LOWERED his prices, and you are complaining that he could have raised them instead!
Humanity man...
