Done. Based on that one, I’ll take any that you have to spare! I have some projects planned.

i do have some really good ones...i think they're good anyway.....did you like the name for the Lucky Charms x Kraken = Bad Luck ?

not too sure how many ppl are gonna wanna smoke some Bad Luck, but i don't care, it's just for the circle that im in - if it takes off, they can rename it if they want, i won't cry about it :mrgreen:

1. Dank Sinatra/Granola Funk
2. Space Cake, just didn't do it for me; but everyone else seemed to like it...one of those not matching my own cannabinoid system things.
3. None
Just planted Uplift, Lazy Lightning, and Sunshine Queen, all 12 beans germed.
Last year I strayed from Bodhi genetics, just to see if anything else in my vault could compare.
Nope!
Keep us updated on that sunshine queen. I haven’t seen any reports on that one and was thinking of running it next round.

Here's another issue with strain names and retailing and proper respect for the breeder. A local dispensary here is selling Lucky Charms and it's very mediocre. Seems like they just grew one seed, got a weak pheno, and aha, we have Lucky Charms! So they're being honest about what it is (I think), what its exact name is, and who bred it. But Bodhi doesn't really want that, does he? There's no way I'd ever buy Lucky Charms seeds if that was all I knew about the strain. I'd probably look right past it in other dispensaries too. My point is, is the name even that important when the grower/clone-selector/retailer has so much influence on the end product? I'm only talking about the retailing part... identifying a product on your shelf to customers who mostly don't give a crap about the backstory. When it comes to reporting pedigrees though, using your own made-up name just causes confusion and chaos. There's a clear reason to avoid that. I don't know... I find this a tricky issue.

Then you'd need a strain called No Luck, that could only be purchased, in conjunction with Bad Luck. Then you could say...
If it wasn't for Bad Luck, I wouldn't have No Luck at all. lol

Since the beginning of retail shops in MA, there was a limit on plant counts, and nonstop seed to sale tracking...meant if the dispensary cracked 40 seeds of ssdd, whatever females they got were all lumped into the supply for sales.... wasn't set up to pheno hunt.....unlike the rest of us who can/did find a thin mint pheno of gsc, a marshmallow Lucky Charms, orange in Blood Orange, etc... the system is inconsistent from state to state. So my goal has/is, to continue cracking hundreds of seeds each year and find prime examples of what is expected from any crosses given the lineage....

The sad thing about this dispensary is that they've been growing this same crappy Lucky Charms for several years now. They're clearly using the same bland clone as a keeper. Their Kosher Kush is good though... MILES better than their LC. It's frustrating. I wish Bodhi would just send them a good clone to protect the good name of his strain. This kind of thing hurts all of you out there who have a great Lucky Charms cut you're trying to get people to try.

i disagree

you show them that your Lucky Charms is better than the store-bought Lucky Charms and you win on several fronts

I know, sometimes I feel like dropping off some clones at dispensaries and say "Grow these please". So if I run out I can still come here. Wouldn't ever have to go to dispensaries if there weren't plant counts. I don't have to go very often, my shit weed is better than their top shelf, so thank God. If I have to go to dispensaries I usually get concentrate instead of flower.

I’m not considering a name change. A cut of soul mate will always be clearly marked soul mate. I respect Bodhi (any anyone else’s gear that I run) way too much to even consider re-naming. I’m thinking more of like.. A cut name prefix.

Pheno variation is actually a huge issue right now. I’ve explored the local market quite a lot and most strain names mean absolutely nothing when it comes to terpenes and effects. It’s a huge issue if you aren’t familiar with the breeder or lineage.
Yeah totally. I have seen cut labels increase rapidly lately too as a result. like Bodhi Soul Mate #7 “xyz cut name”. This to me seems totally legit but maybe not the direction you’re heading.

Found a nanner on my only decent ssdd outdoor plant today :(
I will move her and pluck her ballz, maybe get her a rainbow shirt and paint her hairs blue

I actually found, believe it or not, a pack of 'Soul Mate #7' prerolls at a dispensary in portland once. They were terrible though, lol. They might've been good when they were fresh, these were reeeaaaalllly old.

Motor City freebies came out real nice... surprised by this one. Smaller yield but nice solid icy buds with gassy strong affect. This a Bohdi tester? Anyone else run this yet?

I’m also struggling to describe the scent and taste of the Dragons Milk, beautiful buds curing nice.

Yeah I hope I didn’t sound like I was knocking his work. I think this PU F5 line was released solely as breeding stock for other people who would like to work with a really dominant purple line. I highly recommend it if your goal is to breed purple traits into an already existing line. It also has incredible vigor, perfect structure, and great root development. The issue lies in its finishing time and smoke strength.

With what I have seen, I would look for pairings where it is crossed with a shorter flowering time, potent female. If you can find a pheno that is dad dominant in structure, but mom dominant in terps/potency I think you would have a real winner. Zero herm traits on PU5 as well. The other guy running 100 seeds also reported zero intersex traits.
Sounds like inbreeding depression typical of any line breeding as was mentioned. Strange to think that most F1 hybrids in traditional horticulture/agriculture come from 2 usually not so desirable looking parents. Homozygosity ain't pretty!
