bodhi seeds

I've seen a few comments about people buying seeds, and putting them away instead of immediately planting and running them all. Well, I'm one of those people, and happy with myself over it. I'm allowed 12 plants, and if order 2-3 packs, I've already bought more than I can grow at once. Besides, Ixve got other seeds too. Bodhi isn't the only breeder.

Yeah... I'm guilty of buying up seeds that won't be grown for many years. I'm trying to build up a genetic library full of the best and most unique dna in the cannabis world while the opportunity is there. Bodhi gear is just perfectly suited for that goal. Not sure which packs will be grown when. Not sure which plants I'll want to cross up. Not sure when/if I'll get that situation to really pop some numbers. Not even sure when I'll be able to grow a mite-free plant again (sigh...I'm beyond humiliated that I still haven't been able to post a report of a single health Bodhi plant). Long distance runner here.

That said, I don't think it's too cool to buy up strains that aren't super appealing to you simply because they're limited and others want them bad. I've been able to grab a couple of the limited releases that sounded great regardless of the rarity but I've had my timing right to grab a lot of the special ones and passed.

Bought a pack of rajasthani that may be tough to run indoors. Maybe if they legalize in my area i can outside but they are sitting there till i figure somethings out but thats the only pack sitting around .No more beans being bought this year unless i see something completely out of this world which im sure will happen sooner than later

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.
I didn’t think so.

trying a sample of cluster funk, not my cut. This one’s different, doesn’t really have any skunky undertones and the tastes like a little bit bland but reminds me of the smell of scotch tape adhesive. It’s good.
Edit* it’s a bit expansive in the head and has some pretty stellar euphoria. Fairly clearheaded but a bit disassociated like I don’t feel like talking to people I just want to go think about stuff but a bit of nervous energy. I feel like this was pulled a little bit early.

I was just teasing you guys. Plus, you all are nothing compared to @CopaGenetics. That dude has been keeping Bodhi strains in the freezer and has been running Runtz and Purple Punch instead! I was talking to him last night and he was all about that zkittlez.

I’m only kidding, of course

I really appreciate the fact that you're willing to add some criticism to go along with your raves. It's a general thing beyond cannabis, but when you try to make distinctions between an A, an A+, and an A++, you inevitably start ruffling feathers. People jump on you as a whiner and a troll because you offer some reason that an A is lesser than an A+. "It's all good(Fire!), bruh" isn't so useful when you're shooting for the best.

You know, I read your post that kicked off some stuff, and I didn't see the slightest thing wrong at first either. But then some excellent points were made and my opinions were shifted a bit. There was a little bit of back and forth but parties stayed respectful. I think the thread got enlightened a bit... I did. That's the way debate is supposed to work. Man, I miss that.

Love what you're contributing, AB. Lot's of strains, observations, opinions, speculations, and pro pics. That's a very useful note that the Purple Unicorn v5 may have more value as a purple breeding tool. Keep on truckin'.

One thing to note about Copa is that he also kept a pack of the original Sensi release of Black Domina (1995-ish?) in his freezer. 25 years later, it's paying dividends. And that's just the tiny tip of his iceberg. He's a serious long distance runner. I'm buying up Bodhi seeds faster than I can grow them. Sue me.

Twice I've smoked Purple Punch, and twice let down. All heavy on flavor, and not a punch to be felt. Maybe a little shove, but no punch. The flavor was strong, but not pleasant to me either. Happy it was someone else's smoke...now I don't have to waste my money on something I wont enjoy. In this new terp world I can see where many others would enjoy it I concede.

For anyone critical of buying seeds for long-term storage, you really never know what the future may bring. I started buying seeds in 2004, but I was an idiot and limited myself to one breeder. Had I known that a bunch of widely available strains back then would (poof) disappear, I would've stocked up on all sorts of things. I'd buy things now, diverse things, in the hopes that we can collectively preserve what diversity is left. On a side note, my bottle of seeds went through some tough times, including a month in a stinking off refrigerator in 90 degree heat, but most seeds still popped 10-15 years later.

Needless to say this time around I've learned from my one breeder mistake, with the exception of Bodhi. Old habits die hard.

I was joking about the purple punch and other hype stuff. He’s working with some really nice lines. Stand up guy, and freezers full of absolute gold that without a doubt will be worth the investment.

I will say this.. Old lines are going to come back with a vengeance. The only reason that these new terps dominate the market is because education is so damn poor. People just assume that cake/cookies/punch/whatever is all that is available. And for the most part, their assumptions are true. Why? Because most growers share cuts, and are only willing to grow lines that are proven producers. Not many are willing to cut their teeth on seed hunts and take a big hit to their income. There are a select few growers who do hunts, and even they tend to stick with tried and true varieties because it’s “what the market demands”. Fruit, cake, cookies, doughy stuff, hype.

I have released a few tester batches of Bodhi stuff and the response has been overwhelmingly positive. Guys who normally dab rosins are saying how the flower from B is almost as potent as rosins they smoke. Apparently the strawberry goji is three times more potent than the local MAC1?

I think we are going to see big changes in the markets here. People are tired of cookies, cake, punch, etc. I think people are finally starting to see through this bag appeal craze. I’m seeing more people demand hazes, chems, OGs, and sours. Old genetics are going to be worth their weight in gold as the community swings back towards the classics in search of something different.

Terpanado....Very sweet smelling, too many leaves(I plucked a boat load of leaves in veg), tiny skinny clusters, but the buds is nice but not the structure I look for View attachment 4705936View attachment 4705937
Looking real good! I know exactly what you mean about it being very leafy. My frosty Terpenado expression (most likely Strawberry Milk leaning) is the same way. I had to cut a lot off as well to let some lowers get at some light.
