This mission may be fruitless but hear me out:

Does anybody have/remember each Supernatural Selections offering, or is there a place where everything is listed? Not to mention the exclusive freebies, and same question for each Nierika release as well. I want to compile sort of a “white whale” list for myself and to have posted somewhere for whomever’s interested.

There’s several Supernatural Selections numbers that I’m missing. And many that I can’t exactly confirm. Even when I find an old forum post or cache on a banks website, they usually lack the ss000 #
Which ones do you not know? Let's start there
Is Laughing Lemon the last one? That's SS018
Portable Space Ship SS017
Panamanian Space Probe SS016
Thai (D9) x Kashmir SS014
I got this info from Headie, there's more of them on there, but they're missing the numbers.

Here’s what I have so far:
• ss001 Dreadbread (Mango biche x OMG)
• ss002
• ss003 vintage pine bud x kashmir
• ss004
• ss005 Cherry Queen (Fat Cherry afghani x OMG)
• ss006 Pleiadian Love Nest (Vietnamese x Kashmir)
• ss007 Soar (Columbian Red x OMG)
• ss008 Eternal Sunshine (Hawaiian sativa x OMG)
• ss009
• ss010
• ss011 Nigerian Space Probe (Big Sur Nigerian x Kashmir)
• ss012
• ss013 Gods Paintbrush (Ethiopian paintbrush x kashmir)
• ss014 Siam Space Probe (Thai D9 x Kasmir)
• ss015 Rajasthani Space Probe (sikar x kashmir azad)
• ss016 Panamanian Space probe (Panama x Kashmir)
• ss017 Portable Spaceship (Pure Kush x Lao x Kashmir)
• ss018 Laughing Lemon (Lemon thai x OMG)

...with a Vietnamese 7 x Columbian x Afghani that supposedly fits in somewhere. Maybe even Lush (I don’t remember the full lineage)

NIERIKA SEED TRUST

Kandahar Black
+ petrolia headstash

Kashmir Azad
+ Petrolia headstash

Lower Uller Annapurna Nepal
+ Petrolia Headstash

Mexican Death Sativa
+ Herbaria Bushmans F2

Upper Chuile Annapurna Nepal
+ acapulco gold

oaxacan zipolite
+ acapulco gold

The biggest problem I’m finding is that there are sooo many testers that I’m not even sure made it to release. I would kill to dig through Bodhis fridge!

EDIT:
I’m gonna plug in any that yall help me with while I still can!

Pleiadian Love Nest ( Vietnamese x Kashmir) must be one of the SSs... don't know what number though.

Lush would be Pure Kush x Laos I'm pretty sure.

Looking for suggestions on what to do with these.

I have a pack of sunshine daydream and a few ssdd crosses.

How would you proceed with chucking some pollen growing out all of these?

If I was lucky to get a strong ssdd male, would you chuck that at females from all the other packs? Would you choose just one select female from each pack?

Or would you grow them all out together and just open pollinate and see what you get?!

What crosses would you do? Which male or female would you hope for?

Please share your knowledge, experiences and ideas! I intend to share as well.

With humbleness,

How long a project are you willing to take on?

Ideally I think I'd pop all of the SSDD, and cross any males you get from the best looking females. I'd do the same with the Mendo Sunshine (cross any males to the best females), and most certainly also F2 the Black Triangle x SSDD. While you're making the SSDD F2s you could always hit all your SSDD males to the best of the Baba Kush and the Blue Sunshine.

Wow... you could cross those all kinds of different ways and probably end up winning with all of them. Those all look like they'd blend together seemlessly. For the sake of focus though, I'd hunt for the keeper females as usual, while keeping an eye out for that one special male that really "speaks to you", as Bodhi says, in any of the strains. I'd then whack all your keeper girls from all the strains with your select male. If you pick/guess the right male, along with some great moms, you could win BIG with all of the crosses. That's kinda the B man's strategy it seems... limit your males to ones that really seem special Too many unproven males and you'll never get around to growing them out... I learned that pretty quickly myself with early pollen-chucking madness. Just one thought.

Thank you for your response and suggestion.

I'm willing to do what is meaningful and worth the potential rewards.

Any guidance is appreciated from any and all whom care to chime in.


Just to check for understanding @YardG : you did mean I should use any and all ssdd males I get?

Anyone know how much work goes into stabilizing a line before it's used as a parent for other crosses?

Say SSDD, it's used a lot in current crosses but I'm guessing there is could a a big difference between what come out of the F1 and how it may be steered before it's used To make other F1s?

Sorry if that's a stupid question. I don't know that I'm wording it correctly.

That is what I was suggesting, although ideally you might only do that with the straight SSDD females, and reserve only the most desirable looking males for the others. That said, I take Nutbag Poster's point, my suggestion would involve a lot of work over subsequent runs with the seeds you produce, in order to cull out undesirables, but maximizes the potential you might save something special that might otherwise be lost. NP's route is probably a far more realistic route to a positive end though it does involve identifying desirable males.

A really special SSDD male would probably be the real prize, but I'm not sure I'd force it if the SSDD males didn't seem extra appealing. We're talking about poly-hybrids crossed with poly-hybrids anyway. There would probably be some special plants somewhere in any of those crosses, but you're apt to have a kinda chaotic spread of (ideally killer) phenos as it is with a killer male. More males, more chaos, more uncertainty, less incentive to spend time with them.

Does anyone recall Bodhi ever giving any insight into the Petrolia Headstash freebie? Not so much the backstory, I know most if not all of that, but where and when he got it, and if it was from seeds which Petrolia Headstash release it was (RMS sold Petrolia Headstash and Petrolia Headstash II, and then later they sold them as Pure and... something else). I think maybe I do remember Bodhi said he got it from RMS stock and that he worked with it a bit but was never that keen on what came of it, so he stopped working with it, but I don't know much more about it than that (and that he offered an Uzbek x PH at one point).

I think the convention with the "open source" breeders is that if it's inbred/worked, they label it as F3, F4, BX3, IBL, etc. I think Bodhi's SSDD male is a selected F1 that worked out swimmingly as it was. That's why Bodhi strains sometimes require more pheno hunting to find the plant you truly love.

I don't know why I was expecting there to be some selection.
