This^^^ shitty but very true. Dont know how any breeder feels right about not testing. Good way to earn a shitty name imo. Just a bullshit money grab, even if it turns out to be a winner. The one that does not will make people not want to buy from you again. Unless life gets in the way anyone the agrees to test and does not is a shitty move to me and should be black listed lol. A valid excuse no worrys shit happens. I get enough free bodhi gear to stay happy when I buy one get one anyway but would test to help the cause.




Good sign if a solid person and breeder. Not just about money money money like with some breeders these days. I think they are just grateful to be able to make a living from it and spread the love to people that help make that possible. I can def back someone like bodhi simply for a statement like this one. We need some more like bodhi. Much respect to them.

F2 ing anyone’s work and selling or giving them away as freebies on a website is a kick in the nuts and is probably the lowest of the low. Stealing other people’s work to benefit yourself. People who do this regardless of tester or not are goofs and scum imo . Different if you’d giving to a friend or saving for future runs or saving genetics but to boost your company and funds on someone else’s work is bs

I'm going to have to respectfully disagree. bodhi has been crystal clear in his support of people using his work. On BreedBay, in hundreds of posts over the last decade+, he has time and time again openly supported everyone making F2 with his work, and then doing whatever they wanted with them. The only restriction he places on breeding with his work is that he asks that you don't breed with testers before they're released, as noted in the tester email, to make sure unstable or undesirable genes don't get propagated.

Although he doesn't consider himself a breeder, the level of testing he does on each cross is one of the reasons he's considered a breeder's breeder - he's using extremely confirmed and vetted clones of rare and elite strains, along with his personally-sourced, tested and selected, often line-worked males, to get unique and elite genetics to the public. This is part of why he's universally respected, and why so many breeders have made their fortunes by using genetics he birthed.

He mentions his open use philosophy many times throughout his Pot Cast interviews. Below, I've listed a few excerpts, provided with the context from those interviews, for your review. I hope that his words may inform your own re-evaluation:

Here's where bodhi says there's no restrictions on his seeds and that he ENCOURAGES people to make more and spread them around, especially old discontinued lines:


Here's where bodhi talks at length about breeder respect and intentions and communication about working other people's strains (as well as the bad energy attached to some beans):


Here's where bodhi again talks about how he loves people F2'ing discontinued lines:


Here's where bodhi talks about people hoarding (apologies to resident hoarders lol!!), and about sharing specifically. Listen for a couple minutes:


bodhi talks about giving seed packs (in the context of Matt Riot) and not caring what people do with them after that:


bodhi talks about open pollination to preserve old/discontinued strains:


bodhi's discussion about how seeing cash as king hurts the industry, and how instead we should be making a compassionate project:

It is his encouragement to do and share, and you and @torontoke, along with many others, doing just that that made me want to f2 the Lemon Lotus. I merely wanted decent seeds to give away to folks.
I can see how them being given as freebies by a company could be seen as shady or undesirable though. But as long as the man himself is cool with it, then not much can be said. We should all be f2in and trading them and giving away as much as possible.

Oh and look who I found lol

And this is why I love this thread. Nu-be, your tact and artful commentary always lend a calm illustrative look into all thing "Bodhi".

I've listened a couple of those episodes and he really is all about living life with awareness. I'm going go back and listen to the rest as I work in the garden.

I popped an old pack of SSDD (maybe 3-4 years old). 11 seeds, 8 made it, 2 girls, 5 boys, and 1 culled runt. I used the best male to F2 a branch on both girls.

The two girls are very similar in many ways. Both frosty as a mug. They have super dense rock hard buds that barely give when you squeeze. Maybe 2 weeks remaining until done. I can't hardly smell anything on them though. I had this same experience when I grew SS4 (SSDD x Chem4). Hardly any smell. I would gently pinch a bud and the resin feels very dry. You need to rub your fingers together to even feel the sticky, and then a light scent of earth and mild skunk eek out. Very delicate smell that is being overpowered by other things in the tent. I loved the smoke of SS4 and can't wait to see the differences in the SSDD by itself. If it's as good for pain as everyone says, I'll likely run the F2's right after.

This 100%. I gave out f2s of tangerine power and will do the same with goji og. Selling someones work or taking credit for it is a different story imo.
