Got a question in regards Purple stems in amongst the Snow Lotus line.I’ve read that this occurs throughout the various SL crosses,have you guys found that this is a sign of a more SL leaning pheno ? And have anyone got anything specific they look for in amongst the SL line that will indicate a more SL dome pheno from the others ?

I would love to hear others chime in on this. My Goji OG and Jabba's Stash girls have stripped purple stems.

Thanks brother, I´m not concerned about deficiencies (they look good to me, and frosty even at early flowering), but rather in understanding the phenotypes of the snow lotus line. There does not seem to be much information around (other than repetitions of Bodhi´s descriptions, and the occasional grow log). Are these the "strawberry wands" of Goji OG?

That is not an uncommon expression of goji. The nepali og seems to pass on a beanpole/totem pole structure in the goji and other hybrids; and the snow lotus particularly accentuates berry terps in my experience. Purple or purple striped stems are also not uncommon in the Snow Lotus lines. Goji is an f1 hybrid though, so the phenotypes are a little rough, and its totally possible to get plants that take after one parent structurally and another for chemotype, or total wild cards.

Thanks! Is the [Nepali OG, or whatever mother] x Snow Lotus gene pool so rich that there is such variation, physical and chemical, between offspring?

Well, you've got (unknown og cutting similar to tahoe) x (afgooey x blockhead) so the short answer is yes. I've run 15 different goji females (including the pinesoul and queen mother cuts) and while there are maybe three or four rough types there is still a lot of variation between them. i think Bodhi said the QM cut was the most similar to the SL, and that cut finishes with a big viney branchy bud covered frame, and has purple stems. While a lot of crosses with the Nepali OG i have grown had to be topped to induce proper branching, Goji is the only Snow Lotus hybrid i have had that issue with. So i think the totem pole trait comes from the nepali. My initial 2 year keeper of goji grew like the qm cut but smelled like airplane glue, pinesol, and cherries (totally unique and i have not found anything close to her again). I found several plants that looked like yours, one smelling close to the strawberry sharpie that Bodhi describes. I've found a lot of variation in chemotype in that line.
