I wish I had taken a picture of the actual buds now, but they looked just like yours do. I know some people have mixed feelings about commercial growers running Bodhi gear, but being able to compare our results with the 'pros', and being able to sample weed before growing it out, are pretty damned amazing in my book.

mixed feelings about commercially running bodhi gear, please explain
I should have clarified that by 'commercial' i mean the actual i502 processors and not individuals that grow and sell their own produce. A lot of the commercial processors (at least in WA) are huge corporations, some foreign-owned. Some of them behave exactly as you might expect a huge, foreign-owned corporation to.
Some people feel that commercial processors running Bodhi gear is a bad thing, that it will overhype it and lead to market/hybrid saturation similar to what cookies experienced, or that it will cause seeds to become more difficult and expensive to obtain. I also share these concerns, but currently feel that the benefits are greater than the risk.
FWIW, I've seen very few commercial processors running Bodhi gear, and the one I linked is not one of the bigger ones out there - it's a small farm with a big dedication to running quality over popularity. They run a lot of bodhi gear and a lot of rare sativas that are less commercially viable (due to flowering times) or have less bag appeal but are nonetheless a superior product. Just had to throw that out there.

I follow kiona on IG & I love their vibe & philosophy. Pretty sure they’re personal friends with Bodhi & doc d as well.

they posted some band aid haze recently that was going out to retail shops. So WA folks are really lucky to have a company like Kiona pumping out these fine well grown, rare sativas. Probably for fair prices too. Can’t think of any in SoCal that do the same.

but you can find Bodhi strains at dispensaries here. I’ve run across quite a few on menus when doing searches on google. The secret’s been out for awhile now. Bodhi sells fire seeds for super cheap lol

Dread Bread #2, which I've been calling the Spicy Pineapple pheno. This was the tallest of the 3 females and a great yielder as well. While growing it produced a very tropical/fresh pineapple/mango scent which would fill the whole room if touched. After a 2 week cure the smelled evolved into a spiced pineapple fruit, like someone had left a pineapple to rot in the spice cabinet. I could not stop smelling my fingers after breaking up a nug. A very intoxicating smell indeed. Flavor translated into more of a spice cake/spicy food type, less fruit and more peppery spice. Lovely effects from this one, an overall "feel-good" type of high, great to smoke before going on a long walk in the park and enjoying the natural beauty of the world. Makes me more talkative and thoughts flow rather clearly; I very much enjoyed this for delving into long conversations. Very potent as well, couple hits from the bong and i'm sailing through the clouds.

Dread Bread #3, my favorite, effects-wise, of the 3 pheno's. This one grew medium height and also produced great yields of very hairy, narrow-leaf ball bats. While flowering it stank of grapefruit rinds but after drying the smell turned into what could best be described as a combination of astringent citrus, spice cabinet, and musky carrots. A sativa lover would really appreciate the smell. A rich, citrus carrot-spice coats the mouth and saturates the brain with an extremely potent day brightening effect. Makes lights brighter and eye lids darker, a powerful sativa high that lasts for hours and hours. Smoked around noon and was still feeling it at 5pm. This is the most potent and racy of the 3 phenotypes, with long duration and a very in-your-face sativa stone which makes you space out and daydream of abstract thoughts. Great for self-reflection and exploring the unknown. An amazing strain overall, would highly recommend!

Bodhi doesn’t care. I’ve had lucky charms, Tigers milk, and ssdd at the stores. Glad People get to try it. The ssdd was actually renamed at the green solution which is lame AF. I think They call it lupe shine. Their herb is garbage anyways. I have 3 ssdd in veg. Maybe they should rename all bodhis stuff so people don’t equate their garbage with bodhi. lol

I have nothing to say other than I am thoroughly impressed with multiple grower in this thread..... And about commercial....I have never tried commercial weed bodhi or otherwise that compared to a well cared for home garden. Least in the mass/NE neck of the woods... when the home grower finds a killer pheno and grow it right imo nothing can touch it. Home grows with lots of love is where its at... commercial vs connoisseur grade imo... not to say that some is not great but... well those that agree will def know what I'm saying! It's almost like the plant can tell when it becomes more about money lol. And wont reward you the same... jmo...

20 or less plants get way more love than 100's or thousands etc...

Happy growing!

My 5 soulmate were all a little bit different looking from each other but smell taste and high al the same. Got one that the buds have cured as gold colored as any I’ve ever seen.
Hey hillbill,
As your soulmates were very similar in everything but structure, did that mean you were able to select a keeper purely on yield and bloom time?
I've got 2 soulmates that have just gone into flower, plus another 5 soulmates that are 30 days into flower. Out of those five, 3 are taller and 2 are quite a bit smaller. 2 or 3 look like they could yield well and they're all nice looking plants.

Which pheno did you keep and how long does it flower for? Cheers (:

Soulmate runs 9 to 10 weeks at my house. Had one smallish one but intensity and all the loudness etc were very similar. Last plant chopped has turned a rusty gold. Don’t look for keepers as I am a beaner type. Impressive strain. I was saving the last six for a male next fall until I stomped my remaining seeds. Yields should be above average and the power is consistent.
