Please enlighten us Drank on the subtle, and not so subtle differences between the Bodhi A11G and TGA's A13 BX?
Big Difference to be honest.
Apollo 11 & Apollo 13 are from the same mother plant (Genius). The father of Apollo 13 was
P.75 whereas Apollo 11's dad is
Cinderella 99. Apollo 11 will therefore be more Sativa dominant. In fact the taller, stretchier phenos of A11 are more C99 dominant.. such as my pheno.. this makes it a completely different high than Apollo 13..
In fact let me change gears for a minute and explain to you a little about about Apollo 13 and what got me hooked on it and started this whole Apollo addiction in the first place.
Apollo 13 is in a class of its own.. and I don't say that lightly.. it is really unique cannabis.. it is the only strain that I have ever smoked.. that provides a completely uplifting high with absolutely no negative or down effects. No paranoia, none whatsoever.. it's what some people would call an "anti-depressant" strain. 2 hits and you are on the moon.. seriously tho.. you want something that is perfect for chilling with other people.. something that gives you energy instead of taking it away.. Apollo 13. It actually gives you energy. It is the most amazing weed I have ever smoked. The high is incredible.. and in terms of how it grows.. easy. It isn't picky with nutes.. it eats well.. It's not airy, medium to good dense buds.. it yields usually medium.. not low, not high.. just decent. Some phenos of A13BX from TGA will yield shitty.. some will yield well.. and the one that I have, the freak of nature yields like a beast.. I can't explain that one.. but I love it. The taste of a good pheno, the one that represents the A13 mom is a citrusy, orangey but more tangerine flavored and slightly rotten baby poo aroma bud that has a slight cracked pepper flavor and aftertaste to her. She has really nice trichome coverage and makes red bubble hash. It's great pot.
Apollo 11 on the other hand is also uplifting and very cerebral but from what I have experienced, way more potent. More cerebreal. My cut actually is very pineapple.. like Dole Pineapple Juice Pineapple. It smells more like Pineapple than actual C99. The high tho is intense, almost trippy. It is a soaring high. There is no creeper effect with either of the Apollos.. you hit it, you get high.. but with A11 you get very high.. at least with the one that I hold.. it is one of the strongest Grimm weed cuts I have ever had.. and I've smoked a lot of stuff from the Brothers Grimm.. in fact I have sampled the keeper cuts from 4 of my friends when they all grew A11g, and I popped a single seed that a friend gave me because at the time when it came out I never bought a pack.. so between those 4 keepers, the best out of their 4 packs, what I found was remarkable was that the single seed I was gifted.. was where my keeper came from. She is stretchy.. she is a later bloomer than the other phenos.. but.. the more Genius phenos from the Bodhi A11g packs, at least the earlier ones from a few years ago.. were pickier with nutes and more light sensitive.. they actually didn't like to be close to the HID light.. which I thought was weird. My keeper, grew like shit from seed.. it was a beanpole looking thing with no meat on it.. looked like garbage..I almost tossed it.. but am glad I didn't because all of a sudden and it all happened so fast.. it was like.. BUD EXPLOSION.. it just blew up with a huge cola and it happened all in the last couple weeks.. the terps were incredible. It was just like Pineapple Juice and the potency once we tried it was so f*cking high. I've kept it since then..2011 I think.
I think there's still a couple places that have these A11g seeds in stock dude if u need help finding a place let me know.
But with A13BX.. or if you ask anyone who is the best breeder to buy A13 seed from.. you are either going to hear people say Motarebel or TGA.. as they are the only two breeders that really offer Apollo 13 in seed form. I think on Attitude it is listed as Apollo 13 x Vortex.. because Vortex is Apollo 13 x Space Queen.. but that is what it is.. .Apollo 13BX.
Both of these crosses.. seed choices.. are the two best seed lines in seed form that I have ever experienced.. ever from any breeder whatsoever from popping seeds. Sure not every pheno will be a winner.. and to be honest.. you are going to have to pop the pack, 10 seeds.. from my experience.. do this and you'll walk away with one or 2 keepers from each pack.. with A13 you wanna look for the taller one with the spear shaped colas. With A11g also the taller, chunkier ones IMO that smell like pineapple as I prefer the C99 pheno..but the Genius phenos aren't bad either.. both phenos from A11g were pretty damn good.
