this is quoted from a reputable breeder. not going to say who...

How does a person come out with so many crosses in one year? I've been doing this for almost 13 years and I know what it takes to make a strain. How is it possible for someone to make 45 strains in a 4 year period? Something just doesn't feel right about that. I mean the selection for a male alone takes at least 1.5-3 years. Bodhi must have 5 or more males to be making all of those strains, or he's just pollen chucking the same male onto all of them. But what I don't understand if this is the case is why people eat them up like they're the bees knees?
Sounds like a lil hater in that breeder lol but not gonna clog up this thread with Bodhi talk too much talk of this subject in many threads but people have to remember that all his stuff are not strains they are cultivars. Every cross is not worked but it's no denying this man has a great eye for males Appy and Snow Lotus proved that and IMHO the 88g13/hp is a great one too the one I like best. His new studs will prove that too but Bodhi knows these crosses are polyhybrid makeups mixed with elite clones and stuff but one thing that helps him knowing his males are studs is him hitting 20+ females with a stud. Only way to know if a male is a good be for passing certain traits the breeder wants is to see how offspring do and having offspring from 20+ moms will give you an idea to how that male will do. The man doesn't have a cult type following for no reason lol but those cultivars made from these males lots of them get tested and he gets reports back on them so he wouldn't be releasing them if they didn't do what he intended even tho it's a polyhybrid cross.

Now he's into making real true p1 hybrids from landrace stuff so whole new varieties are gonna come about from these. It's gonna help change the game since most of this stuff is derived from a few main strains from back in the day. Dying to get my hands on those p1 hybrids. Should show people what real vigor and uniformity is like

Slow down I didn't say anything pertaining to what vader does or doesn't bro. I love him an his gear run sick stardestroyer og right now. Was speaking to the poster of comment I quoted about himself.
An yes I been following vader on YouTube for years myself. His vids are great an love him showing how seeds I pick up are made.
Hell I guess I too damn high today .my post did look like I implied numbers to vader. But anyway I m going to just continue my 420 rosin fest.oh shit it's not 420 anymore. Well guess I take another dab.
No worries my man, I probably got a little too defensive on his behalf, like I actually know him or something. I'm just a fan boy of his videos, which are some of the best on YouTube. And he happens to breed/chuck flavors that are right up my alley. Sleeping Dog is still one of the top five cultivars I have ever grown, polyhybrid or not. Cheers! Dab on!!

I plan on breeding my fire bagseed strain I've got going (see link in signature) with a Master Kush hopefully in a year or so when I can take that opportunity. Keeping the seedstock for this beauty forever!

Houdini and Jawa Pie get the flip soooooon. Both are extremely short and tight noded. Only seen anything like it on and old Purple Og clone I ran years ago.

Will make F2's

glad my lil heads up to you, turned into this..... rock on. I just flipped houdini and alien rift. never popped jawa yet. picked up ninja fruit and love potion 99

and as far as pollen chuckers?????!!!! VaderOG is not. he is one of the most transparent breeders in the game. watch his videos before commenting. the proof is in the pudding and you se all the seed pops and males he culls. he show great discipline and refuses to cash in. he could easily produce enough alien rift in 1 batch to last a year, but he would rather keep fresh stock and happy customers with small artisinal batches. he turns down the payday to do this. His lines are proving how he isolated the desirable traits out of alien lines, and rift is killer.

bodhi is a very talented pollen chucker. lets face it, he throws it at the wall and see what sticks. Gage green is close. SUbcool is there too. but guess what? I love flavor and variation, and thats where the poly's reign supreme.

I have ran dozens of new breeders, none of them working the lines like Vader, or Simon, SHanti, etc. and I cannot believe the amount of hermies lately.

hermies dont belong in the game. all you lazy fuckers who want all females have introduced a level of tolerance into the game. hermies are gay mmmmkay.

Are any of these cultivars passed the f1 generation? If not then he's doing what lots are doing no different than Bodhi just Bodhi has plenty moms to test his males out on. What breeders making true hybrids from p1 stock? I know Bodhi is for sure but can't knock someone who has a major eye for creating great polyhybrid cultivars but also does some real true breeding too. Gonna have to get some of this gear to try to see what all the fuse about

I'm pretty much done growing fire bagseed let alone breed with them, too many hermies...
Pick your bagseed well, young master. As not every bag was seeded because of open pollination. Ha but yeah I see your point.

To lessen hermaphroditic tendencies in a bagseed you like you still have the option of taking two non-hermed parents and breeding those two together to harvest their seed.
Bagseed can grow some good looking dank if you score a gem, but often it might lack potency! I had pulled seeds out of some heady midgrade that we call "corn" down south, had a royal buzz so I had to succumb to my curiosity and plant it; glad I did! She grew into an awesome, dank smelling bagseed of awesomeness. Remember at one time a breeder's genetics might have derived from bagseed!

I use this bagseed now because I don't want to purchase breeder seeds from where I'm at. I'll probably take the dive and order seeds a year down the line or so OR take a vacation to Colorado! That is only an eighteen hour drive from me! As for breeder strains that are on my watch list, I am eyeing the Serious Seed's Bubblegum, Gage Green Seed's Journeyman, and Ace Seed's Malawi as potential candidates, and I'd like a Master Kush from Black Label Seeds but I'm not sure where the original MK might be.
Pic related: This one's a dwarf due to unhealthy circumstance but I think she will atleast give me a nickel haha well I have doctored her and taken care of her well.

yeah I should clarify bag seed from my weed haha. I know when its from hermi or ''controlled'' pollination, if its not in a bud I meant to pollinate, I dont grow the seeds.

I pollinated this lassie with a fat stanking male. Wish I had taken a photo of the male when I had it alive. <.<
Oh well. This is not a very detailed photo because obvious reasons, camera is quite crap, but the seeds have a nice lightning'ish design on them. More to come but the rest of the seeds will come off her when I'm drying her buds.

Ocean Grown is crap, tbh. If what I've read on this thread is correct! They'd be one of those seedbanks that can be described, "start there if you want unstable next door neighbor tier genetics. Serious Seeds is too much power for you."

Assumptions... sad. But you choose how to live your life and what beans to pop. By the way, Ocean Grown Genetics is a breeder out of So Cal with a small team around him. Not quite a seed bank that you erroneously identified them as. The more you know...
