Bodhi is all good with folks giving out f2s so you should be good to go.

This is not entirely accurate. Bodhi is fine with F2's or working lines but only for friends and family and not of work that is no longer for sale by himself.

Bodhi very clearly has stated many times what his stance is on his work, almost to the point that it appears he cuts and pastes the language. I first heard him verbalize it on The Pot Cast.

There is a very large Bodhi Preservation movement over on Overgrow and he posted his position there at the end of February: https://overgrow.com/t/hello-overgrow-friends/17974

That's the same thing I read a while back. Bodhi is fine with people giving away f2s. Selling them he asked from them to be actual selections and/or not of current stock. Very reasonable and easy to respect.

So F2ing those testers for myself is a no no until the line is released then? That's the way it appears to read.

Bummer.

Ya it's a no no to f2 testers in general, get the ok first. Biggest reason is they're testers. Meaning the breeder wants to make sure they make the cut. If someone f2's testers that are not quite up to par and spreads them around and then someone else makes a cross with it...... you see where this goes. A bunch of unwanted traits just got added to the gene pool.

Not just that. The seed maker is probably going to release it for sale if it tests well. Making a name for yourself as a reliable tester equals a lifetime of free seeds and first dibs, which is quite a benefit.

That's very true man. Those trusting relationships go along ways. I see a lot of breeder's on ig complaining about testers never following through.

I appreciate the responses and you guys nailed my concerns on the head I’m trying to save time by pollinating now and growing them later If I like how they smoke ( the moms ) by hitting everything I can save time

but the proper way would be to smoke the females so I have an idea what the males bring to the table then decide if I wanna use what they bring

After the rado plants finish I’m gonna take one male and all my females ( the ones I’ve smoked and deemed worthy) and just have him dust them all

I’m kinda ocd so I like the cross to have some kind of direction and I think nycd has a tag but It doesn’t represent us well so my goal is nycd but a ecsd kinda thing .. Gas and sour

my other nycd x pbb male is ready to flower and this one smells like a kush and a little og .. way diff structure from the nycd x og chem ..

I’m looking for 2 more males I might start a few seeds of ecsd x headbanger or chem d x headbanger

I'm planning on doing a quick & dirty chuck for my future outdoor crops in the PNW.
Not sure what I'm doing (understatement), but figured I'd buy a couple packs of early bird regs & just run em with whatever else is ready.
Probably my gorilla wreck keeper and a revegged bounty hunter (greenpoint).
Should be a decent variety that will start & finish early. 8)

What do you think?

Vashon – Vashon Early Bird (Vashon Kush x Early) | JBC Seeds

Vashon Kush also looks interesting.
Would that be a back cross?

Like I said, I have zero clue... :eyesmoke:

True and also, some, like Omuerta Genetix, lets you test, doesn't tell you what it is, like Doc D, then when you post flowering pics, etc, they'll tell you what it is, but Luke says you can do what you want with those testers, aka first in line, so to speak, no rules. Just sayin. Testin scene is changin up a bit.

Ditto on both points.

Poor Motarebel has great gear, throws testers at folks and can't get any info in return, Ive never seen nobody treated quite like him with the testing scene. Sux.

And Mota's gear is fire!! If I weren't testing for Bodhi, I'd test his gear.

If you get that much pollen when reversing a female then I've gotta learn your method.

It really depends on the plant you reverse. The 1st plant I reversed, my grape sato cut, didn't give up a whole lot of pollen from her sacks. My lvtk cut on the other hand puts out a nice amount of pollen from her sacks. Find a good female to reverse and veg her out a bit then flower her out and get a nice haul of flowers to shake above a piece of glass or parchment and you'll get yourself a nice pile to play with, cheers!

I meant to add the male stinks more than the female .. I do have a beautiful mom but she didn’t get a good run so I’ll have to re run her so far the one in flower looks like she’s going for at least 75 days .. the male smell sticks to your hands
