Id be curious to see what comes out of those riot packs. Especially now since it seems he dropped off the face of the earth after his bout with masonic.
i have 3 in veg and the stem rub smells like sweet peach/blueberry skunk mix.. also have 3 peaches and cream by alien genetics and both have that peach sent but i think the blue peaches smells better so far

Ok last pics of pheno 1 which is a quick finisher, oh and like zero powder mildew on her
Pheno 2 looks and smells exactly like pheno 1
Pheno 3 is very different from the first 2, light hints of purple, more frost, different smell, stacking more closely
Pheno 4&5 are entering flower now, one of them is stunted
I cant wait to vape her because she smells amazingly purple

I have a bunch of strawberry milk females, some seem mildew prone, I ran into one scrub female thus far with amazing smell but imo trash, I let her dehydrate and die...Trying to reveg the first one who I sexed and really wants to flower

Well seems ill be up all night again with little guy so... here is a strawberry milk f2 lower. Nice smell, lots of frost AND no bannanas as of yet. (Heard most of them hermie) I only have had this one pheno make it to flower so my experience is limited. Others in this thread whoms word I trust told me this. Wish her luck in the coming weeks!

Im running a clone of the best pheno I found and no herms as of yet. The ladyboy ball trait seems to be a sexual maturity trait that goes away after you switch to clone based propagation. I still have this cut around for curiosity’s sakes. Let us know how it smokes for you!

That happens - thats another reason why i never bother running moms, just the clones - a mom is a false representation if your plan is to keep the plant
what does running a mom mean vs. running a clone taken from a mom? If you run a mom aren't you losing your source of clones? forgive me i'm so confused.

wail.....if you flowered the mom, you can take cuts from it before you flip it to flower, right? but the main reason is because a lot of time, the clones can flower differently, including seeing intersex in the mom but not the clones, and since that's what you're going to continue to run if it's a keeper, why bother with judging how well a mom flowers rather than a clone?

right?

Yes and no. Personally, I prefer to keep seed mothers as I seem to have fewer issues down the line (like a few years) regarding genetic drift and other abnormalities. Clone mothers seem to have more issues and also have them come up sooner. But this is just my personal preference and not supported by science, that I can find at least.

This is why I love forums with solid growers. I personally pay no mind to genetic drift. Imo a mom kept correctly (from what I have seen) have few issues and if they do could be a 3 month old mom or 20-25yo mom. My buddy has a ecsd x wcsd mom upwards of 25+ years old and still tests the same, vigorous growth. This also goes for about 10-15 other moms that are all 18+ years old. Imo the smoke can't be beat as well. Last time I ran it in a 4x4 grass roots beds it yielded (if memory serves) around 12-13oz. That was also sharing the bed with 3 other plants. Numbers like that i can't complain about lol...

Like you said I have no data to support this claim just my eyes and experience as a grower. I highly value your opinion on this matter so don't feel as if im calling you out as im not. One day we will figure out what makes this magical plant tic! I hope to hear others experience on this matter as well now that its been brought up.. I keep clone for moms so I can't speak to the difference between that or or a seed mom. I can say I have seen intersex issues disappear when running clone etc as others have said...

Hope all is well bodhi family! Happy growing!

No offense taken, I am always learning and enjoy when others have differing observations/data than I do; it keeps the mystery and fun of growing alive for me. I wonder if it has to do with the original plant and the "strength" of its genetics? An example of such would be the chemdog cut; it's been around for a few decades and I assume everyone holding onto a cut at this point has a clone of the original seed mother. The oldest mom I had, before the CA fires took her, was about 10 years old. I can't remember any issues with her, but the exception I made with her versus my other plants was every May/June I would take her out into the sun and let her veg out there for a good month or two. My buddy who I got the cutting from told me this was a necessity as "she was originally grown outdoors so she has to be outdoors for a little bit". Unfortionetly, he passed away a couple of years after giving me the cutting. He was a wealth of knowledge and out of respect, as well as his memory, I kept the tradition alive of taking her out to see the real sun. I wonder if vegging her in the sun is what kept her around and so vigorous for so long?

I forgot how I put up side lighting and just switched them on. No larfy bullshit here folks!

Electric Cowboy Larry Leaner. As you can see, the stem vigor is much better than the original Larry. Terpenes and high are mostly un-changed.

Cherry Sativa x SSDD keeper. Grows like an absolute beast, stretches nearly 3x, but the smoke and terpenes are to die for. There won’t be much space in the canopy after the buds finish swelling.

View attachment 4758551

Peach Hashplant keeper. Again with the Hashplant stem vigor. I need to buy more hashplant crosses.

Goji OG F2 stacking really well. Very excited to see how she runs in this sealed environment. Her resin production is already dramatically higher than it was in the open vented room. I think she is sensitive to changes. Likes consistency. She is also a HEAVY feeder.

If anyone has been wondering where I have been, I have been harvesting a run full of Doc D’s genetics. Specifically Bandaid Haze ix 3.0 and a Mullum/Oaxacan cross. And headbanger but that isn’t bodhi.

View attachment 4758554

Bandaid Haze - Backstory: There were these seeds that came from this Spanish grower in South Holland, Ronni aka Ronaldo, who was part of the “A5 crew”, who had a Thai pollinate his room. “a5” is shorthand for ‘nl5 x haze A’ different from her sister “c5”, or ‘nl5 x haze C’. These seeds were sent to e.T., who then shared some with Bodhi. Bodhi germinated them in early 2013 and all he got was one male (a5Haze x Mirakel). He doesn’t normally keep males if there are no females to evaluate but he used it anyway to pollinate the Cuban Black Haze cut that he had. The strain was referred to as Piff by Bodhi initially. The beans were shared almost exclusively with Doc D, who after running them selected the Piff #7 and shared a cut of it back with Bodhi. Bodhi had it tested and it came back in the high 20’s. Bodhi and Doc D shared cuts with other forum members here in late 2014 and after some discussion most of us agree that it is actually better than Cuban Black Haze and it also has a shorter flower time (100 days). Everyone, Bodhi, Doc D, e.T and everyone else, refer to this cut now as “Bandaid Haze”. Bodhi coined the term because, “it heals all wounds.

The Bandaid Haze ix 3.0 is Bandaid Haze no. 7 x A5/Thai Bx. It grows really well, smokes really well, smells really good.. It’s really good!
Good day, sir. Can i ask what the room dimensions and wattage you are running here? It looks amazing.

I think this has merit. But it should be clear that I put these plants through a high EC crop steer with significant drybacks in order to drive tight node spacing and better bud set. It worked well for 3 weeks but they couldn’t take the heat on week 4.

I like the cut but the smoke/terpenes just aren’t good enough to warrant treating it like the diva it is. My dad hand waters in sunshine mix so he will run this one.

Sunshine Daydream on the other hand.. Once I got the PM taken care of she is happy happy! This is definitely the best cut to come out of the hunt. It’s basically just a pure butter muffin SSDD pheno.

2CADAF2A-E1EE-4101-B8AD-0C9093F2E494.jpeg

I notice that she is much more susceptible to PM when she is growing/stretching. Once she stops and her leaves darken/build up a waxy layer, she gets much more resistant. The super yellow new growth trait seems to be very common with SSDD.

I hope to pass a SSDD steering wheel cover around to those who haven’t been able to find a good one. It’s a genuinely special plant and I can see why it was hyped up. My favorite indica and I can’t wait to have a gallon jar full in the personal stash.

This is an 18’ x 11’ room and I have 3600w of LED bars and 600w of side lighting that I often forget to turn back on after I service the room. 2 ton Mr Cool DIY AC, anden 210 dehu, and auto irrigation with an opensprinkler controller. Works real well, until it doesn’t.

Haha , I love it bro! Had me crying! More to come on the hash front. I'm specifically looking for strains that might crossover well to an aged temple ball. Getting ready to pop some of them banana spliffs. Think of it, banana flavored hash! I really wish i hadnt missed out on the blueberry hashplant from bodhi. Oh well, I've got some gojis and ssdds coming up in solos to ease the pain . Excited for summer 2021 pollen chuck!

Oh and tiger melon ×ssdd as well. This will be my second run (from seed) with them. The last pheno I grew out didnt have much flavor or smell, but was strong asf. I agree with everyone else. Probably one of the more potent of bodhi Ive grown out. Highly recommend
