I got some bodhi ssdd going now and just culled one male from 3 planted. the only one sexed so far and 2 of em stink to high heaven and not in a skunk way, but just funknasty stink. I have searched and searched for info on ssdd specifically and can't find a lot so I came here to see what else I could find and 1800 pages is way too much to wade through.

I goddamn sure don't wanna hear a bunch of political bullshit when this is a bodhi seeds thread. I wanna see some chit chat about bodhi strains. I am thinking about making another purchase of bodhi from JBco. I am on the hunt for a badass keeper and so far what I have given out has gotten far less than stellar reviews. I had some problems during the heat of summer and have been slowly putting together a couple of tents and trying to get the lighting, heat, and nutes right so I can then work on the best plant I can put out and then find the right strain or pheno that people really want.

How much do you normally spend on seeds to find one really good keeper???

have picked up a couple good hints, from tis thread, on some bodhi strains to try and will be pulling the trigger as soon as I can

however, I don't want to spend a thousand bucks strain or pheno hunting and don't wanna read a bunch of off topic bullshit when there is a place for all that I can already avoid easily

Thought and prayers to Las Vegas tonight. We all as American's need to take a breathe one man in one office is not going to make or break this country. The bs spilling from fucking servas mouth is just that bullshit. I've never met anyone on this forum but I wish you all the best and a tremendously blessed life. Keep the division to yourself if not kindness keep it.

could you go into more detail in regards to your definition of "keeper"?
Hmmm, well shit. Lemme see. I guess first thing is, I'm a lightweight so even shitty weed gets me blistered. Personally I am looking for couchlock, pain and insomnia relief and so far, EVERYTHING I have tried causes a crackhead like panic attack feeling.

My friends have said so far my shit is average and below par for what they normally get. They say "it's not dro quality and is just homegrown". I grow aero and tell them all pot is homegrown. I can grow a pretty decent plant but I am NO master grower by any stretch of the imagination. If I had a quality strain that wasn't really hard to grow I am confident I could impress the local yocals even the y'all may find me very amateurish still.

Some things I am looking for is easy to clone and at least medium easy to grow. I don't need a super yielder but if I found one that knocks you on your ass, awesome. One hit and done. I have a small area and am trying to work out a perpetual harvest with something always coming in and coming down. Not sure how bag appeal factors in but my last was super larfy and looked bad but I had root rot issues, temp problems, and shitty lighting. I have since corrected all those and the next run looks badass, even some of the same (clones).

What else do I need to address?

If you grew ssdd and that didn't impress maybe work on technique a little more. Kiss keep it simple stupid anything with an appy dad should kill I've grown purple wookie black lotus ssdd goji og silver mountain space monkey and dream beaver. All top shelf. I have starflight guava sky lotus' and love triangle about to be flipped with hells angel og x ssdd ggr x ssdd and sunshine 4 behind those. If I see 1800 pages of knowledge and choose not to read about shit go back to page 1000 and read from there. It took me $63 dollars to find a keeper. 10% off for vets through shoe. It was ssdd pretty much found a keeper in every pack I've popped. Keep up the fight man with experience you'll nail it down.

so that particular pheno should not be cured, and its chemical composition allowed to change? it turned soft by curing, how long was the curing time?
it was a pretty short cure, 2 weeks +/-? I just think it is what it is. I think its just the g-13hp dad shining through as its similar to the more cowbell but not as loud. Nothing really wrong with it, just dosnt stand alone. I would not be as critical of it if i didnt have 6 more beanz and more things i want to look at. With my limited space, im focusing on diversity and the best representation of each strain i have. Hoping something a little different lies in those other 6.

Unfortunately, these topics will arise. They should come and go, just gotta deal with it. Comments like this merely perpetuate it. As far as finding a keeper, most bodhi packs will probably hold a keeper. I agree with cezarkush, you need to hone your technique more than likely. Are you sure youre running them full cycle? Alot of the traits youre describing could describe a premature harvest by an impatient grower. Not accusing, just speculating. this forum has lots of info and helpful peeps. Harley smith of npk industries on youtube is an amazing resource as well. Cant recommend his videos enough. Lots of information to take in, watch them several times, especially his longer ones where hes speaking to a group at a grow store.

If I can find a keeper in a single pack. I'll be thrilled.

I must clarify and apologize that I was misunderstood. I haven't flowered a single Bodhi strain at all yet. I am just now getting one close and it looks like fucking fire.

The shit I speak of all comes from attitude and I have never once had an awesome smoke come from them no matter the claimed breeder. I am fully and completely convinced they sell shit relabeled as something worth buying. My last attempt was from a variety pack of ace seeds and to be fair, like I mentioned, I had severe problems with an otherwise good grow. I had root rot and temp issues and managed to salvage the affected plants and successfully flower them under shitty led lights. The same plant (clones) are looking way way way fucking better, huge thick colas that are really sticky. Haven't looked at frost yet but the last batch didn't hardly frost at all until very late. Won't be able to tell the density until after the chop, a week or three away.

It was NOT the ssdd that didn't impress, it was the ace seeds from attitude and it was an unknown from a variety pack. I am just getting back into the swing of things after a disabling injury a few years ago. My root rot and lighting were a major fucking problem earlier.

I apologize for seeming to say that anything Bodhi was unimpressive even if grown by a complete amateur. I can grow a plant, I just ain't a master grower. I have other shit growing that people are impressed by and can definitely grow a really good tasting tomato. I am not a black thumb, just need a good strain or pheno to work with and I think I can knock a few of these shittalking fuckers on their asses.

I didn't take good notes on that harvest, I totally forgot when I flipped them. It is completely possible that I jumped the gun. I also fully believe that all the other issues, root rot, temps, and shitty led lighting had a part to play and have since all been corrected. I am not the best at telling when it's time, I have pocket scopes and have read way more than a few threads about when to harvest, etc. They looked like if I didn't harvest, they were gonna fucking keel over no matte what I did. Again, I reference the problems I had during the grow. I didn't expect much and was completely surprised to have been able to salvage anything at all period. I killed most of them and only saved a few. I killed most by treating the root rot.

Another thing I want to say about an 1800 page thread; not much from the first 1700 pages are all that relevant to this topic. I am here researching Bodhi and his strains etc. The first 1700 pages are outdated to the point where I can't find those strains anymore. It's not like info on growing or systems or lighting. Otherwise I read every thread I find from the very beginning. So don't get me wrong that I didn't go back and am still reading from the relevant info in this thread. I am not here trying to find out how to grow, I am here trying to find strain info and breeder info. (in this thread, not RIU in general).

I freely admit, the first harvest I had in a long time was a horrible one and it was due to noob issues that have been corrected. I have grown some awesome plants in years gone by but haven't been growing for a while and have had to rebuild on the cheap. As the harvests come the system will be upgraded. But that shouldn't be a problem at all for my small grow from now.

Keeper means something different to just about every single person on this forum I'd imagine, but there are a lot of helpful people here in this thread that have been at it for awhile.
Personally I'd recommend space monkey or just about any of the hp crosses for shut them up factor.
Good luck and enjoy the beginning of an addiction.

HA!!! beginning my ass!!! If I had $5k, I guarantee I could spend half on seeds.

I already have the space monkey on my want list. If I could afford to just fucking buy all Bodhi that JBco has, I would, just to see.

I understand "to each his own" but I'm just looking for a few good recommendations to start with. Even a shit grower can grow a decent plant with the right genetics.

By HP do you mean the 88g13hp??

I would like to get my hands on some gg4 from a stateside seller. I don't buy from across the pond anymore.

These were taken on my phone, sorry for the color and I hope you can see what needs to be seen1002172051.jpg 1002172050.jpg 1002172036.jpg 1002172035.jpg

those first two above are clones from the aforementioned shit and should be getting close. The next two are about two weeks behind and I would have to look at the tags to see what they are, I think they are both vashon early girl freebies from my ssdd purchase. One may be an ssdd, but again, I'd have to see the tag.

I can see a little difference, the older ones have less pistils than the younger ones. I am pretty sure the Ace I've had "complaints" about is definitely not a keeper. It is easy to clone, but it isn't the fire I'm looking for. Regardless, I ain't keeping it, I've got too many that have more promise
