Yeh man. They were freebs--2 packs, 22 seeds but 20 made it. Very vigorous and I can already see the SL dom solars. I don't expect much on the tongue but I sure hope they cure up dank/unique...

They’re coming along well. I decided to rid myself of the males that were mostly “eh”. Don’t worry they did their job… I just don’t see a need for pollen to still be flying. The females are fully pollinated and have a nice coating of resin. However only 3/10 had strong smells that range from sandalwood, pine, and what I can only describe as “yep that’s pot”. The younger ones may just be too young to put out volatile terps.
I’m revegging (5) males based solely on observable traits:
1. Huge. This one was a beast, early in sac production, and continuously dumped pollen. I chose him for being the biggest, having the biggest cluster formation, and his shape was similar to most of his brothers
2. Dense clusters & squat structure. He was also an early one. He got the most attention when I posted my original pic. I chose him based on those features and because he was a crowd-favorite.
3. The red-stemmed male. He was the only to exhibit this. Plus he took longer to actually drop pollen, so I gave him a second chance. He also put off some strong stem-rubs.
4. Strange leaf & also large sac cluster. He had my eye from the beginning. If you saw one in my earlier pics where the leaf color looked off, that’s him. He also had a shorter stature which may be beneficial indoors moving forward.
5. Had the most vigor/side-branching naturally. He also had a large-ish sac cluster. He was the wild card.
I’m hoping by revegging I can uncover some resin production on the sacs &/or maybe some intersex traits that I can select away from. Idk, kinda just experimenting and manipulating nature really. The females got shoved off to a tent in a closet somewhere to finish; so far, zero issues with them.

Collect as much pollen as you can from these. Revegging males works very infrequently from my experience. If you get one to reveg it’s a special plant. I run almost all my males and micro pollenate quite a bit. I try and reveg my all stars and it’s a losing proposition. I reveg females all the time. My males go right for the dirt nap after nutting. Good luck.

Im all over the place with smoke reports. I run through so much gear that Ive sorta lost the ability to document it all. Its gotten to the point where I just test everything, and when I find "the one", its fairly obvious. What do you want to know about?

Feels so good to finally post a Bodhi bud shot! I havent had anything of his in rotation for the last two rounds and I was missing you all here.. So I guess I just spammed with Doc D hype!
This Phone Home pheno is really nice. The TK seems to be making it through with its sharpie-funk terps and structure, while the Wookie sorta tacks on a burnt rubber lavender back end. Its great to see how well the Wookie 15 acts in its pairings. You would think that it would be overpowering because of how loud it is, but it seems to work well with more recessive/delicate traits. I think this is why it is so well regarded in Granola Funk and Space Monkey - Because it doesn't degrade what was so good about the females. Instead it just seems to add its own spin on the terps!
Lucky Wookie is finishing up and I dont think I like the Lucky Charms leaners. It reminds me too much of bland cake terps - Just sweet, not much going on. Big buds, but no nuance to the nose. There is a Wookie leaner that looks and smells freakin fabulous - Lavender rubber chem funk. She is still swelling and is GREASY. She will hit re-veg alongside the above Phone Home pheno.
Granola Funk is also finishing up and it also looks great. Again, the wookie seems to leave recessive traits in-tact that other males crush. Its is rare to see a forum cut cross where that OG-cookie-spice note is left alone.. But I smell it on a single pheno, but with a deep burning rubber funk. That specific plant will also head to re veg. The non-keepers ranged from large bud terp-less stackers to leafy-as-shit PM breeding nightmares. Gfunk seems to have a lot of hype, but I'm liking both Phone Home and Lucky Wookie more. That may very well change after dry/cure because I know how good that forum cut can taste. We will see!
Passionfruit Hashplant is on week 4 right now. Early resin rub/smelling my finger like an ape reveals heavy cedar and tropical melon notes. This lush female is super dominant. I think that is a great thing for a hashplant cross. Not so much for the poor wookie. But this has me looking more at Divine Intervention rather than Happy Trails. I could totally see the Lush just dominating the Wookie 15 male.

You mentioned hunting through 8 from females on the Temple x Dragon Energy.
I was wondering if you had a chance to smoke test yet?

Beautiful plant. I just moved some Phone Home into flower for sexing. Given my rotation, the female will remain there thru fruit (males back into collection tent), with clones to be taken after some stretch on the ladies.
Please keep us posted on the phenos identified.
Keep up the good work .

I popped 12 seeds and only 7 came out strong and vigorous. 4 of them were super slow and looked extremely bad so I just culled them out, 1 of them didn't even germinate. Probably because I've had the seeds for so long.

I think I had 16 of those at the end on the hunt. On those, both the Dragon Energy and SSH will fight for dominance. The Haze C terps will come through on basically everything in the beginning, but the last 2 weeks is where you will see each plant transform into its own unique pheno/chemotype. You will get plants ranging from SSH/WW dominant sandalwood/citrus/melon/deep skunk to super bright Haze C/Sour D combinations.
When i was hunting these, I was looking for Haze C terps up front with sour/skunk/sweet pine on the back end. My choice keeper threw out those exact characteristics. If you are looking for something very specific from this cross, pop a large number and grow them all to the end. If you are open to anything as long as it is interesting, a single pack will do just fine and you will find some awesome stuff.
The high on the SSH/WW leaners is heavy and surprisingly strong. They had deep complex aromas of melon, funk, skunk, pepper, and pine. The pheno I selected had a more clear headed/uplifting high powered by the SSH/Sour D lineage, but with less overall potency than the SSH/WW leaning pheno. I ran the non-keepers and trim to unrefined BHO badder and the terp fraction was like 40%, absolutely ridiculous.

Yes HE is a big burley man. If you're talking about his Black Domina males, they are fire! Been running some of his Black Domina crosses for a bit and they are straight old school dank! Only had one out of many that didn't perform well for me but I will chalk that up as grower error not his seeds, I feel I didn't tend to her needs the way I should have. His Cookies Nior is some of the best tasting weed I've ever had. Glad to see someone with your skills partner up with him. I will be patiently waiting to see what you two have up your sleeve! Bodhi related, I've got a couple Black Triangle, couple White Lotus and couple Cougar Milk females so far. Also grabbed a couple White Lotus males that I got some pollen off of, I have seen more than one breeder use it so I thought what the heck. Gonna hit the White Lotus first for some F2's, then maybe Hollyweed and Chem Kesey. Honestly don't know yet cause I got Secret Chief also. Might just hit them all, I left lower branches on all just for this purpose. What do you guys and gals think?
Got all of those, thanks for the reports! Gonna run Passionfruit Hashplant and Peach Hashplant together and then do all the GSC Forum cut crosses, Granola Funk, Space Cake and Field Trip(also Eagle Scout from Greenpoint but thats the last I'll mention of that. Lol). Haven't heard much on the Lucky Wookie but I like the sweet ones so it might be right up my alley, potency has taken a back seat in my old age. I know I'll find something in Phone Home, at least I think I will, from other reviews of it like yours. Thanks again, now I know what to look for in these.
