You have a fav strain from bodhi?

Not particularly...if i had to pick a few, i'd say the goji and tranquil elephantizer were my favs - i used to have a really nice ssdd that i should've never got rid of - bought another pack and didn't find it again....i had a really nice snow leopard at one time....field trip was outstanding but it hermed on me so i couldn't keep that around....overall id say that goji was some of the best all-time smoke but it needed to go at least 11 weeks (too long for me) but my buddy ran it outdoor and it was phenomenal...it was so good that i bought most of it from him - ppl still talk about that too - very potent to say the least

so yea - now im starting to go after the goji crosses - and i like the ssdd crosses also - i don't really care too much for the 88g13 crosses anymore - i think there's some instability in that line and they're all low yielders....still can't comment on the wookie crosses because i seem to keep getting males but we'll see with these next 9 wookie crosses i have going now (3 phone home and 6 lavender jacks)

TWIN SEEDLINGS

This mutation is very common. Polyembryonic seeds contain more than one seedling. Once germinated, it will produce two taproots instead of one. If carefully handled, these seedlings can be successfully separated into two plants.

Strangely, one of the two plants will be a normal offspring of both mother and father. The other plant will only be a clone of the mother.

Three-seedling polyembryonic seeds have also been reported.

Despite its interesting biological marker and outcome, there is no real advantage to breeding plants with this trait. No effort has been made thus far to develop a true-breed with these characteristics.




So that means one of them should be a clone of Goji Razz? I'd be cool with that!

I love posts like this...people with Bodhi experience just running through their quick impressions of the crosses they've tried. Thanks @Mr. Krinkle !
Any other vets want to give a quick rundown?

I posted about this a while back and I didn't get the impression that people found this as exciting as I did. What a freakin' bonus to get an elite breeding cut out of your pack. These seem to come up quite a lot from Bodhi seeds from what I've noticed on here. Leave it to Bodhi to find a way to produce more twins than everybody else. :)


I got one of these from a Goldstar x Snow Lotus and it got eaten by mites (Cyclamen mites... I managed to find a rare and confusing species). Hadn't done the research to know what I had... Bodhi's select Goldstar cut. That would be a great score, but some of Bodhi's breeding females are beyond special to get for a 60 dollar pack. Take note people!

Hmmm, ive seen this mentioned once before somewhere, but never seen proof.

Someone will have to grow em out and confirm.

Also wondering if it would in fact be IDENTICAL to the mother os just CLOSE loke an S1???

Also, from my experience and what ive seen, one of the twins is usually a runt and grows like shit

I haven't heard of anyone saving one and confirming it either. I think they're saying it's an identical CLONE and not an S1 thing. I imagine the runty one is usually the clone. In my case, the runty one died from the mites but the main one lived on to be a (very sick) male.

Broad/russet mites scare me! Edit* but so did spider mites at one point.
Cyclamen mites are as small (virtually invisable) but different and extremely confusing when there's so little info on them. I don't think they're quite as bad as broad mites but they're still a terror, particularly when you don't see them and they attack differently than other mites. Between those and apparently seasonally poisonous well water (way too much copper)... I've been buggered up for about 2 years. Got some new stuff going... we'll see if I can get past it. The mites made a little appearance again but I think I know what to do this time. Might have snuffed that pandemic out... please god please.

I never heard of them before so I looked it up, they are broad mites.

Not that exciting yet but I was itching to share.

This plant is less than 2 months old and for the most part has been grown on my back porch and inside near a window before that.

The growth pattern is really impressive. Especially compared to the plants behind it. All got started around the same time and have been grown in the same conditions. The others are Twisted lime og (mota), Trappa Zappa (dweller select/who dat is) and Wifi x xj13/appy (?). They are all way more stretchy with long nodes and hardly any branching. All are untopped/untrained.

The Snow lotus showed a natural propensity to branch, its far less stretchy than the others, internode length is also quite short, the fan leaves are huge, and it stinks ! Just walking near it produces clouds of skunky odor. I just found a female preflower on her a couple of days ago...so fingers crossed ! First time trying to get a harvest from seed on my back porch at 7500'. Woke up to a yard full of snow this morning !

They're similar, but a little different...they don't eat the leaves out away from the stems. They mostly shred up the stems and stalks and spots where the leaves meet the stems, and bury their eggs into the plant. I think. That's been part of my problem because they're rare enough so they seem to get lumped in with broad and russet mites, but from pictures I've seen, the broad mite attack is different.

"Cyclamen" covers several types of similar mites- Broad mites, Hemp Russet MItes and others are grouped into the Cyclamen category. They are all similar in the way that they dont make webs, are all essentially invisible without a scope, and are very hard to eradicate. The eggs can live for years waiting for the right time to hatch. Also most species dont lie eggs on leaf surfaces- they actually lie them inside the leaves and on random surfaces throughout your house ! Killing the actual mites isnt too hard but they reproduce at an astronomic pace, so keeping them gone for good is very difficult once you get them. Ive heard of people shutting down for years and the mites coming back into the grow within a month or 2. Others have sold there houses and moved because of these fuckers ! IF you can get your room to 140 degrees for a couple of hours it will kill them. Shipping containers are sometimes sterilized like this. Problem is once you get them they are in or near enough to your environment that they will probably make a return.

Exactly !

My understanding is that my species of the cyclamen mite needs a lot of humidity and it doesn't lay eggs all scattered around away from the plant. That's good, but the downside is they seek moist little crevices and actually tie leaves into little tents that don't get hit by sprays.

I have a lot of apple trees all around my house and I think they all come bungee jumping out of the trees when they hatch...right around the time the blossoms come out. I believe I've sucked them into my tent with my intake duct too close to a window too. I don't know...this is getting off topic... but I appreciate the input. Maybe I need to dig even deeper into the research. It's been a nightmare.

I've been running Bodhi seeds since 2016 and I had spider mites for the first time in years, so I had to let go of my strains. My friends are desperatly missing Black Raz(had it for 2yrs)! They wanted to say "it don't have much of a smell" but they sure missed it when it was gone. It don't have much flavor, but it is a frost monster that will glue your scissors when you trim. My friends are missing Black Raz so much that I am about to buy another pack. I'm thinking about doing 2x packs and get more selection to choose from and hopefully find one that has more flavor. However, I'm torn between trying Strawberry Goji or Divine Intervention instead of 2nd pack of Black Raz... My other fav bodhi strains are no longer available, so no point in talking about Dragon Fruit or Prayer Tower(indica)...

My wife is taking horticulture classes and she suggested that we plant flowers that will attract beneficial insects like Green Lacewings and Lady bugs, they like the same plants. Anyways, last year's outdoor plants got spider mites 2x and nature took care of it both times. I don't spray my plants with anything but micronutrients. We planted Yarrow, Dill, Cat Mint, and I kept some native species around and didn't mow them. It turns out that Comfrey will attract bene's also. Even if you are planting indoor, having these plants around your yard/grow space will limit the pests. It's like a hotel buffet for the good bugs. There is also plants that will attract the bad bugs and they will prefer these "target" plants before they attack your good plants. Plants can attract good insects, attract bad insects, or repel them.

Use a filter...

It's a pain in the ass, but you cannot wear outside clothes into your grow room. If you do outisde work, then you need to shower and change your clothes. That or do your inside work first, then go outside.
That's good, but the downside is they seek moist little crevices and actually tie leaves into little tents that don't get hit by sprays.
Our goal is to not use sprays. Well, my goal anyways...
