Lol at buying gorilla brand. You can build a space twice as big for that price.
hey man, not everyone has the op to build, bro. im in rented accommodation and growing in England, where its horribly illegal still and building just isnt an option. i wish/dream of the day i can though.

@Diesel0889 do have you much experience with growing weed? if not i'd grow one strain to start with incase you end up with strains that feed way differently. you in soil or hydro?

sexing them as jesus says is a good option

Prob going to get a few in the towel here today or tomorrow so when I move I have fresh sprouts going my current list I have broke down from my million strains is as follows

Dynasty genetics- cherry vanilla cookies/ platinum gsc x ms. Universe
Huckleberry diesel/ pre 99 sour diesel x huckleberry

Bodhi- space monkey, clusterfunk, silver mountin, black triangle, love triangle.

First run I'd like a good yield to get going with again (stash is low lol) but if anyone has a suggestion to start with I welcome it. These are just the ones I have been wanting to run the most. Hard to pick just 2 or 3 so a little help!!! Happy growing.
Pop that monkey. Thank me later.

Good yielder, very dense buds had a big cola mold up on me unfortunately. Sweet artificial fruity scents with a strong skunky funky backbone. If she didn't take so long she'd be the keeper(if it smokes as good as it looks) but I'm still very happy I got these, definitely worth the wait.

I understand why some feel the way they do about gorilla. I have had many of them in the past and like that if need be I can take everything down and get out of my place. My spyder x plus and all the other gear that hangs from the top of my tent is approaching the 70lb limit of my sun hut. Sexing is done basically how you said. This is the reason the extra price is worth the piece of mind.

I have been growing since I started smoking. First couple years not so serious. I'm doing my first run in super soil with a twist cause I have 200-250 gallons of it made. I plan to run fabric pots in veg tent and get a no till bed made in the gorilla 5x5 or bigger when I can afford it. I have done every type of grow at this point and still prefer organic soil over all others. No till will keep my cost lower in the end and that's what I plan to do.

I was asking about strains because I have not grown out all that I own in seed stock and what better place to ask than the bodhi thread when most of my tents will be there seeds. I will never claim to know everything about growing and am here to learn till im dead and gone. I have had a year off just helping other people's gardens and now that I'm moving I can have my own again. I also THINK I do a good job maintaining a even canopy even with a few strains going at once. Just wanted a little direction as to what to start first. My list is what i was thinking but i can list all i have if people want to make a suggestion. As long as I'm growing it's all good and I'm happy. And anything anyone has to add I welcome good or bad. I appreciate all the help this forum has given me over the years and contribute myself when I can. I just have so many God damn seeds I dont know where to start. During my time off i went a little nuts on James bean and have enough for a lifetime lol that's all.

THANK YOU ALL FOR HELPING MAKE ME BETTER IN ALL AREAS OF GROWING! RIU HAS SAVED ME MORE THAN A FEW TIMES.

p.s. if I could build and have a massive room I'd do it I a heart beat. I dont sell and only have a buddy or 2 that ask from time to time for some smoke. I just enjoy the plant and think our government is unfair and choose to live it as part of freedom. I would not ask anywhere else for advice. Other forums are dead to me these days lol. I like riu and the attitude in the bodhi thread, all experience and not much bull shit.. anyway sorry im done with my rant. Happy growing!

about 40lbs of big chunky stuff with about 400-600g of material. I've seen Matt Rize use more about 60lbs or so and I'm sure an extra 20lbs would be perfect but it's cold as shit outside and its well water that's almost at freezing so I feel like I can get away with less ice. I did a 4th wash the other day with mostly just cold water and a little bit of ice and still got a nice pull. about 10% of the ice goes in the work bag i think that helps alot. That's close to 15% total for that material which I'll take all day long. So far everything with the hp dad has been awesome.
Looking at getting some equipment to start making bubblehash here soon and have a couple of questions if you don't mind. How many washes do you typically do? how bad is the quality dropoff between say wash #1 and wash #3 or 4? Any recommendations on which brand bags to get?

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:

Straight up. Covered every point.

I also made f2's and gave them away thru shoe to help him out, but they went out for bodhi orders only, and communication with bodhi was first.

Like some others have said, pop the monkey, you won't be disappointed.

Not sure of your medium, but she likes coco... a lot.

Mother earth coco peat used as a base making this batch... decided to try somthing new.

Good to know I may pop 3 or 6 and see if I can get lucky and get a keeper. I have seen a few pics that could and should be on the cover of hightimes best buds of the decade issue if they made one lol. I'll have to look back when I'm not so tired and give credit where its do. Seriously stunning pics. Lots of members in this thread should be proud of the work they do, and lots work with less and achieve amazing results. With any bodhi strain. Me and my sunhut get by.. small but it works for me and the old lady only! Happy growing!

I went through a few Ebay bag sets before I decided to bite the bullet and get a set of the originals. Cheaper ones get stiff and rip. They may make really good ones now, I don’t know. But my originals have been in use for 5 years and are still going strong.
Yeah you gotta be careful with h the cheaper ones. I bought my first set off Amazon for about $30 and the screen above the 73 micron screen had a bunch of holes in it, got a lot of plant matter in the hash. Of course I hadn't noticed until after running all my trim.

I'm fairly new at it as well but did a lot of research. Got the bubble bag brand thought it was a fair price and good so far. got the 8 bag set but only use 3-4 now and just catch the last two microns together as my main pull. Bugatti bags are award winning American made bags that set the standard, all over ig.

Now that I have the machine I do three washes and the quality seems better on the later runs than doing it by hand. I think the longer ur materials sit in water the more it'll degrade. I got that washing machine from pure pressure it works great and can do up to 1 and a half pounds of dry materials. You'll need a work bag as well then. Hope this helps Matt Rize has good videos on proper drying which is super critical.

Extra info: hash rosin is the way to go. After some research found out that when you press nugs you end up with waxes and lippids which is why when you compare the two one is way more smooth and enjoyable.

Awesome info sir, thanks for taking the time to share. :clap:

My plan is to get a washing machine, a high quality bag set and a freeze dryer system. The washer and freeze dryer are both available on the Pure Pressure site, so thats mighty convenient. I will probably go with the buggati bags for the bag set though. You only live once.

The freeze dryer system for thoroughly drying the hash has got me very interested. There are some folks on IG I check out from time to time that press out hash dried through this method and it looks like fire. They are about 2k so they ain't cheap.

That freeze dryer is on my Christmas list as well as Bugatti...no more microplaning frozen patties sound great.

That's good to know. I love rosin and that information motivates me to take the next step beyond pressing nugs.

Do you ever compare the same batch of nug-pressed rosin vs. hash rosin?
