Not trying to clog things up but I trust my fellow Bodhi people!

Looking to do a legal large scale grow in the future. Think 10,000+ square feet.

Anyone knowledgeable in a 1000+ square foot grow or large. Any things you wish someone had told you? Trying to have a building constructed for the purpose.

Planning on using 1k gavitas and lots of them ha. What's ideal ceiling height for a facility? 15' I'm thinking... Lots of research to do still but I know there are some big boys around here with some advice, things they've learned work best, things they'd change of they knew before...

...I'm thinking of breaking it up into 3-10 flower rooms to be able to take a room down every week or so, and also quarantine problems that may arise... So if things go wrong in one room it can be shutdown and sterilized... Any thoughts on that? Right now I'm thinking 3 main flower rooms with a 1000square foot room for testing new and unknown strains

PM me if you have any experience at all in a warehouse or larger scale grow.

Thanks guys! Back to business #BodhiForPresident

Yes lots of exerience over here, if you think doing a room a week is not a shit ton of work you should think again. Don't cut corners is my advice to u. And I'd go 9-10' ceilings. What about cooling? If your running lots of lights id be defy considering that.

Appreciate the feedback but reading through forums is painful when starting. If anyone has more pointed advice that would be great (not disregarding what anyone said, I'll do that as well) .

THink about it like breeding dogs or any animal for that matter.
It is simple and complicated all in one.
Males are the most difficult to choose. The only real way to know if your male is a stand-out is from his progeny.
There are people who will try and tell you look for certain traits in a male, and while it certainly won't hurt, there is no proven way to do it. Trichomes on males are a good sign, as well as tight ball clusters, but I have had males with both traits that didnt put off good offspring and I have had wispy, crappy looking and seeming males put out fantastic offspring.

I know some people (and in many ways I agree) who think you should use a weak male that doesnt dominate. Then you are basically getting the dominant traits from the female.

Its really all dependent on who YOU are and what YOU look for imo.....for instance I know someone who has been breeding for quite some time and he tosses every male that has trichs.....and this dude aint tossing out no stars.....

Wasn't referencing you directly, someone said checkout the pollen chucker forum. And there is no malice is what I typed, just didn't want to start reading through a bunch of posts on a forum or random results from google. Thought there might be somewhere that someone has put this down on a website or something (or a book). I wasn't going to disregard anything (hence why I said I wasn't going to). Jesus who pissed in your cheerios.. lol.

For the record, I was merely asking for a basic starting point so I can make F2s to share with the Bodhi community (read: helpful people in this thread!).

Using weak anything in a cross is a bad plan. Male or female you should look for traits you want. Using weak plants so that one doesn't dominate isn't a good idea, you're just passing on shit genetics. You have to find a strong male that melds into your crosses well. Take bodhi for instance, do you think his appy or hp dads are weak in any way? Because they are not lol.

I was speaking for everyone that had posted lol. As you've already got some marginal advice on breeding from your question here, why not go to a thread or site where there are people that are dedicated to specifically breeding?

I'm surprised Bonza just doesn't come out with some huge ass promotion giving out 100 seeds or something. If they are all junk, why not.. it will make a lot of fools buy from them. You'd think they would have gotten on here and tried to better their name after being called out, but I guess they figured it was best to just stay quiet since they wouldn't win that argument. I thought about picking up some FMS C99 from Attitude for their promo but am just saving the cash for the BoGo from Shoe. I do need another pack of the FMS c99 though, and still think the FMS C99 crossed to the Dream Lotus will be one of my favorite strains I make. Just have to see I guess.

JD, Jabbas x SSDD sounds like a great cross and I am sure you will find some very special stuff in there. And Mucha, gotta love getting extra seeds in the packs. I would have to say that probably almost half, or easily over a 1/4 of my Bodhi packs have more then 11 seeds in the. Usually it's 12-13, but for my rarer strains I picked up like Lucky Charms, Ancient OG etc they have 14. I think it is because the seeds were 2nds to start with so he includes more in hopes of you getting 11 viable seeds from the pack. I don't think anybody could go wrong picking up SSDD right now. Look at how much people love the Lucky Charms and it hasn't even been gone a year. SSDD probably has even a better reputation, if not the best from Bodhi so a year from now when there isn't any left people will probably pay stupid prices for them. If they are still around in a couple-few months I plan on picking up at least 3-4 packs just for the stash jar to either go through them in the future on a pheno hunt, or put them in the freezer and look through them 20 years from now when they'd be like a holy grail. I bet after SSDD is gone for good, 5-10 years from now it will be a highly prized clone only with a few of the best clones floating around, but only so many will make it after the 5-10 year mark.

P.S. - @JDGreen , how do you like that Mountain Temple, and what all did you find in the cross? I am starting to regret never picking up any. I got a couple packs of Silver Mtn instead which seems more popular. But this one has always interested me.

I have nothing but positive experience from Bonza. Growing some 24k and autoflowers that are beauties
