Little check-in. I've had 2 terpenado's and 2 RKU's vegging for the last couple months. My stud terpenado is perfumey, with some sweet, sour, and dankness behind him. Lady partner is a real stinker on the rub. Was blown back by the rotting garbage skunk smell until I realized what it was... baby shit! You sick mf'ers are right, something appealing about it. Haha. Then one super short and well built RKUv2 and a more moderate sized one. Flipped one week ago, photos coming soon. :bigjoint:

whats the most stinky bohdi strains just got the mango hashplant and the chem kesey wanted to know if anyone had grown these ?

@InstadovB hit the nail on the head. Mine was very very mango. With a background smell, prob what he is describing... I think he posted a few pics a week or 2 back and they looked VERY similar to the pheno I had. Good daytime high for sure. I also think I remember it being a land race cross possibly? Someone correct me if in totally wrong in saying this... happy growing and good luck!

My two phenos of mango hashplant that I have going right now have a immediate black peppercorn smell at first and then delves into the ripest most mouth watering mango smell. From what I have read, chem kesey would be your better bet for the stank dank.

My finding with the mango hashplant were about the same as yours. If it was you posted pics a week or 2 back (think it was you) they looked well cared for and healthy. Hope they finished well for you! Happy growing!

20190219_151032.jpg silver mountain #1 pheno at one day shy of week 5. Could not dig up one closer to harvest. But you get the idea. Yielded less than my #2 pheno. But still a big girl this early none the less. Thought I'd share. This was my last run before my current but was in a 7 gallon smart pot grown organic. Not in my 4x4 bed. Happy growing!

Mine are on day 52 currently and have a good 14 days to go I'm guessing. Mango Biche is a Colombian strain. I think bodhi got his as a cut from another breeder? I'd have to recheck that to be a hundred percent sure though. Killer strain so far. Had more overall vigor than even my space monkeys. The mango hashplant also doubled in size after the flip. The only underwhelming part so far is the lack of crystals compared to other strains, however, it still has time to build them up. Which doesn't mean much to me until I actually get to smoke it, that is the true test for me.

My Chocolate Mint and Spearmint have gone nuts here. Everything is lush and green from frequent rains and blooms like never before on almost every weed and tree.
Normally getting browner by the day in July.

Wisconsin hometown was hammered by the Derecho overnight Friday and parts could be without electricity for weeks, thousands of trees down.

Acquaintances in Southern Arkansas got over a foot of rain from Barry.

If I had to guess this was maybe the start of week 2, 2.5 of my last go round. I did not date mark this one. Left front silver mountain #3, back left silver #2 (my favorite) back right is the silver #1 pheno. Middle is clusterfunk #2 pheno and front right the #1 pheno. Both exhibited purple orange and red fall leave colors late in flower during the fade. VERY VERY COOL. yeild was respectable to massive on both strains. I get VERY stoned and numb almost on the clusterfunk. Has alot of chem traits and smells in the 2 phenos I had. CF did well from clone also. Had lots of roots in 5 days and tons 3 inches long out of rapid rooter at 7 or 8 days. Fast rooter. Anyone that has a hard time cloning should run this strain as it roots itself easy. I hope I can find a late flower pic to post! Thought I'd share.. happy growing!

I have been searching this forum looking for grows and any information regarding Bodhi's deep line alchemy strains with little luck. I can find little bits and Information but most questions get left unanswered.

I'm looking for drought tolerant Bodhi strains to grow outdoors guerilla style which led me to his DLA series being that most are hashplants from the middle east. It's hot and dry all summer and I struggle to keep my plants hydrated in July and August. I plan on culling undesirable traits and making seeds with the plants that do well selecting for drought tolerance, disease resistance, finishing mid October or earlier, and narcotic effects.

If anyone can give me any advice or opinions regarding which strains from Bodhi would give me the package I'm looking for it would be greatly appreciated.

for drought and heat tolerance nothing does better than a pure lebanese in my experience. Based on that I'd recommend the new lebanese x 88g13hp dla.

real seed co has a great pure lebanese line gathered in the foothils around the bekaa valley hashmaking region. unfortunately real seed co's germ rates are hit and miss.

That sounds like my kind of flower. Can you comment on the nature of the effects of the ethiopian line? Daytime, up and active, little sedation, or night time, sedation, sleepy time stuff? Any ideas on ethiopian (paintbrush) x omg flowering times.
Many thanks.

sure, here's my report and documentation from my ethiopian banana tester grow including effects and flowering times. hope this helps out.

sure man, it's pretty long though. I had some problems in the first round and did a second grow from clone, unfortunately the line turned out to be unstable.
If any of the other ethiopian banana hybrids make it to release, I will definitely pick those up because there were a couple amazing phenos in this line.

flower time
53 days for the shortest finisher 66 days for the longest

stretch
2 phenos stretch a lot (pheno 3 and 4)
1 pheno literally grows like a vine with lateral shoots and branches, it likes to grow onto the other plants for support (pheno 5 vine pheno)
2 phenos grow a lot in early flowering but have good node spacing (pheno 1 and 2)

issues (stress)
I had some issues in the first round from seed, including light burn and a timer failure for the 2 longest flowering phenos after the others had been harvested. Every plant popped a few bananas in the first round. I wanted to be able to give clear and definite results, so I did a second grow from clones. There were no issues in round 2, and no stress.

I grew everything except pheno 1 again. I did a second grow with strong clones so that I could determine whether the herms were stress induced or genetic.

There were no issues on the second round, and unfortunately the line is not stable. 3/4 phenos hermed on round 2 with little or no stress, and the 4th pheno grows a tiny unfertilized seed in each calyx.

plant size
The plants were very large on the first round. The second round from clone, I grew the plants very small so I could be certain there would be no light burn or shading.

yield
round 1 large plants from seed
pheno 1- 3.16 ounces (89.7 grams)
pheno 2- 1.51 ounces (42.8 grams)
pheno 3- 1.52 ounces (43 grams)
pheno 4- 2.15 ounces (42.8 grams)
pheno 5- 1.39 ounces (39.4 grams)

round 2 very small plants from clone
pheno 2- 1.08 ounces (30.6 grams)
pheno 3- 0.5 ounce (14.8 grams)
pheno 4a- 0.4 ounce (11.3 grams)
pheno 4b- 0.73 ounce (20.6 grams)

aroma
very diverse, but they are all very sweet and have notes of exotic fruits.
pheno 1: cream, rose, peach and stone fruit, toasty, sweet desert wine. very pleasant, mild, and desert-like.
pheno 2: alien fruit, smells cold. This one is really weird, I have no idea how to describe it, other than that it smells like unidentifiable exotic fruits, with an icy note that isn't anything like mint or menthol.
pheno 3: When you open the jar, it smells very strongly of butterscotch with a hint of orange. The buds themselves smell like cactus cooler soda, fresh peach, gasoline, and peach gummy.
pheno 4: citrus and melon with sweet alfalfa grassy undertones. this one could be mistaken for some kind of old school haze variant.
pheno 5: Pine forest floor, mangosteen and lychee, juniper berry, and some kind of sweet dark berry jam. this one smells very interesting.

effect
very diverse, medium to high potency. To get an idea for my tolerance, I smoke a about 2 grams a day or less. I also smoked out or gave samples to friends so I could cross reference and see if they got a similar effect.

Pheno 2 is an excellent, smooth, happy, relaxing, sunshine feeling sativa that borders on psychedelic if you smoke it all day. I really like this one. it is very recreational and great for playing guitar or drawing for a few hours. It helps with my baseline pain, and gives me some energy to move around.

Pheno 3 is a full body headrush when harvested early. when harvested late, it has the same experience plus a very familiar kush like high. this one could be an elite cut if it weren't for the herm trait.

Pheno 4 is not as potent as the others, and is a mild bright sativa that leaves you happy and alert. medium-low potency. You could mistake this for some kind of old school haze variant in its smell, appearance, and effect.

Pheno 5 is an insane, overstimulating confusion. everyone who has smoked it experiences a wild 15 minute blast of confusion, racing thoughts, and mild apprehension, before the high smooths out into a crazy electric sativa high. Personally, I really don't enjoy this effect. Harvested as late as possible, the 15 minute blast is gone but the effect is still long lasting crazy cracky sativa.

Pheno 1 is my favorite, the high is really really pleasant, and kind of hard to describe. the effect is very comfortable. Excellent for mood, relaxation, and contemplation. This is definitely a no ceiling high. Each hit is mild but definite, increasing and subtly changing the high from an overall stoney well-being, relaxation, and comfort that spreads through your entire body on the first hit, into a very heady almost psychedelic sativa experience after you've been hitting it for several hours. I like to pack small bowls of this, get a nice full, hit and hold it in forever. This pheno has a really pleasant psychedelic headrush if you hold it in. The exhale tastes like buttery cream and rose with a hint of toast.

bag appeal
2 are very appealing, colorful, uniquely constructed old school bud. One has fat fall colored rounded sticky indica nugs, and the other is a delicate, ornate but alien looking heirloom sativa type. One is pale green and has an og kush-like bud construction. one makes chunky sativa spears.
The only one I don't like visually has tiny calyxes, and overall looks and smells like it might just be a generic haze.

overall impression (be honest)
This strain grew some very high quality, very unique and wonderful smelling bud.
3 phenos produce incredible quality bud, but they have herm traits, and two of them are low yielding. 2 are excellent old school heirloom types, the third looks like a current elite cut. Even though I can't keep these long term, they are good enough that I have to grow them all at least twice so I can have a decent cache of this flower. The old school phenos have completely unique uplifting highs, and there is no limit to the high. This really is a 'no ceiling' high.

The vine pheno was really unique and fun to grow, but the effect is just too crazy for it to be medicinal, or even recreational on a regular basis.

One pheno is too similar to a haze in its smell, appearance, and effect. This is the only pheno that isn't a herm but it has some undesirable traits that don't show up in any of the other phenos. It grows a tiny, non-viable, un-pollinated seed in each calyx which makes it harsh.

I think that even though this cross is unstable, and had a few phenos that I don't like, I want to try other variants of the ethiopian banana. The fact that the high on these two phenos has no limit is really special to me, and I think it's definitely worth exploring more possibilities for this heirloom sativa.


keeper?
No. Unfortunately the line doesn't seem to be stable. I'm really glad I grew it, these were very unique plants with very interesting highs. Even though they're herms, I like the pheno 1 and pheno 2 well enough that I'll still grow them again and build up a decent stash before I junk the clones, but they're not true keepers.

Anybody with any info or experience on Chem1 x SSDD or Butterscotch x SSDD ?

Soul Mate is a must have IMO. Also, better buy them tonight, when the new drop goes live tomorrow no more buy one get one. It will be buy two get one.

Just sampled first Soulmate today and I agree. Spread of phenos and all kinds of smells drying like Pine and Lavender and citrus with a dopey incense and musk or something, complex and strong. Seriously loud and wonderful.
Quick effects of a euphoric high and energetic with no couchlock or paranoia but strong and seems a bit confusing too. Sense of time shot in the ass.
