bodhi seeds

Hey everyone, figured I would drop in and make a post since I haven't been on here in a few months and was trying to catch up on a little Bodhi reading. I wasn't planning on just going off like that but I've had a lot of health issues this past year and before I knew it I wasn't doing much of anything, but I guess that happens in life. I really missed my old garden and reading up on the newest Bodhi news from everyone. From now on I will try to post every so often and maybe even buy me a digital camera and figure out how to securely upload pics.

Haven't been doing much in the way of growing, and don't plan on anything big for awhile but will be growing a couple here and there hopefully. My buddy finished out a couple I started awhile back that turned out great. One was a Goji, the other was a Sorcerers Apprentice.
That Goji was the greasiest plant I had ever seen. Very very sticky buds even after they were dried, and would just clump together in a jar, and even stick to the jar itself. It is some very dank smoke and will put you down pretty quick. Not as energetic as I was expecting reading some of the others reviews on it. But could possibly just be this pheno plus it was taken later then average, either way its great for night time. I'd like to run a few more Gojis someday and pick the best one since this is only 1 female with no selection. It stretched like crazy with purpling in its stems, nice big buds with quite a few smaller leafs. I didn't get any berry smells from it whatsoever which I found odd since most people report at least a little. This plant just smells straight up earthy strong possibly kush? smell. Not sure what Kush is suppose to smell like since I don't live where it is prevalent. It doesn't really smell like skunk but is just as strong as a skunk smell, just can't put the words to describe it. It also has a menthol? like smell as well that almost burns your nostrils when you smell it. The yield was also better then most other stuff he was growing with it which was an AK47 type plant, couple Purple Dogbud from CSI, Green Poison, Green Love Potion, Blueberry Headband .. can't remember if that was it or not. I will say some of those plants weren't too bad for just regular fem seeds but not close to the Goji or Sorcerers. The Purple Dogbud was pretty great too and both showed colors. One was a beautiful dark leathery leaf pheno that showed chem dominance but turned purple. I sorta wish I would have kept it from him to reveg as well but can't keep everything plus it just wasn't on the same level as Bodhis gear IMO. But was a great plant none the less.

The Sorcerers Apprentice was one frost monster, and for sure the frostiest plant I had ever seen. It wasn't nowhere near as sticky or greasy as the Goji was but looks like it was caked in more resin. It had a few foxtails on the bigger buds, but nothing too bad. The buds started to turn a darker almost purplish tint to them as well. Looked a lot like how I would imagine a Snow Lotus to look. But I haven't grown or seen many Bodhi plants in person yet so hard for me to say. The smell is very very weak in flower and is a great low odor strain. After being in the jar for a week or so it smells very fruity - I would say grapefruit. It smells almost identical to the Female Seeds C99 I had which is great. The high of it is very uplifting and sativa dominant. Makes you want to stay awake and find something to do. Not a racy type of high though, just a feel good uplifting motivational high. I'd say the best smoke I have ever encountered living where I do, plus my buddy agrees as well as a couple other people I know. The Goji & Sorcerers are both very well liked but the Sorcerers gets the pick from everyone that's tried it. I'd say the potency is about the same for both, just different types of high. This plant yielded about average, but I think I can get it to do better when I run it. Her brother had an amazing smell and makes me want to pop a few more beans to find a girl just like him. When B bred this strain he said he used the Green Apply Jolly Rancher Cheech Wizzard cut x the Appy male. He was NOT kidding I swear to you that male plant smelled like straight up green apple jolly ranchers. There was no denying it, that was green apple and I couldn't believe a weed plant could smell so close to something. I probably should have taken a cut off that male home but being really sick I just didn't care as much at the time. I would love to hear anyone elses reviews on this strain?

I am going to try and reveg both of them so I can grow them myself and possibly run a couple others beside them to try and find 3-4 good moms to keep for awhile. I am thinking 3-4 each of Mothers Milk, Silver Mountain, and Dream Lotus so I can possibly get 1-2 girls from each without having too many numbers. I just have so many seeds I bought from my addiction last year I really doubt I am ever going to get to pop half of them unless I get to feeling better and get to move out of this state. I really hope I get to, I can't imagine all the fire that is in those seeds just from the very few plants I have seen so far from Bodhi.

Sorry for the long ass post, but guess that's what happens when you try to catch up after a few months. Hey quick question to you guys that know. Any way to get ahold of SHOE without having an Instagram account? I'd like to get a couple packs of beans so I can grab that Giesel x Appy cross as a freebie. I tried making an instagram account on my PC but the apps weren't working for me and I really don't want to upload any personal info anyways if I don't have to. Seems stupid you can't just sign up for an Instagram account online and that it has to be on a phone or through some stupid app.

Oh, and to GreenSanta - Probably not what you are looking for but not sure how much you know about the Dragon Fruit. It is a cross that really struck my eye early on and I grabbed a pack for myself. I wouldn't mind grabbing another pack, and a Silver Lotus to go with it. The Dragon Fruit is a SSH x Snow Lotus, just like the Silver Lotus which is SSH x SL, the only difference is the Silver Lotus uses B's cut of SSH which is what you'd expect from a typical SSH plant. The Dragon Fruit uses Old Sogs SSH which is suppose to lean a lot more Indica growing from what I remember. Should be some very massive buds, and enough sativa in there to make it a great all around smoke with some serious kick.

I think SSH crosses are some of my favorites such as Blue Dream. It seems like SSH always passes on great structure to its kids, and lets the mother pass its flavor/bud types on with the beefier frame and some sativa influenced haze added. I think it is probably one of the best breeding tools anyone could have in their stable so of course I believe Dragon Fruit and Silver Lotus would likely be even better. I bet you could easily find a plant in each pack that would do the same thing as the SSH does for passing on its great structure/sativa influence with an even greater potency then the typical SSH has from Bodhis Snow Lotus boosting everything in to high gear. Of course I am sure they will be great smoke on their own as well, just speaking for anyone that is into breeding or doing some pollen chucking of their own to think about what the SSH has done for the cannabis world and then imagine how the snow lotus boosting its potency could help its offspring.

I am sorry I couldn't give you the info you probably wanted since I have never grown them, nor seen a full grow completed with pictures. There was a grow up over on farmer forum a couple years back but the guy never finished the grow and I think the pics ended around day 40 or so but it looked great. Also for the Sky Lotus I have heard really great things. It seems quite a few people have grown them out but I haven't seen many pictures of them. From what I can remember reading it can turn into a very huge plant and yields quite well with the right phenotype with the potency that is up there with Goji if not even better for some phenos. It seems like I remember reading of a couple having some late nanners but could be wrong, plus that isn't much to worry about anyways.

Thanks - I dig collecting hard to find souvenirs. They be snagged. :eyesmoke:
Have you or anybody grown beans from Bonza and verified them? They have some rare beans of a few strains the rep says they come into them all the time but as was stated they don't send in breeders packs I guess cus they are pick and mix only but if someone is wanting them to be sure they are verified beans I don't see have why they don't. I just don't want to end up wasting money on something that's not legit. I'm only speaking on the rare beans they get.

Seems to much a gamble.

Exactly my point. If things were lil better financially right now which isn't with the baby getting the bulk of what was extra money I would take a chance. It's something I don't mind doing when I can take the loss if I'm gonna take one. Can't take the loss right now tho and if I did buy them I would have to pop them immediately just so I could verify asap

My take: I've bought singles from 'tude, Choice, MWS, and TSSC over the years. Never thought twice about tossing $50 at Bonza. Here's why:

Think about what it costs to do any business start up, then ask yourself - why would they invest the time, hassles, and dinero just to run a scam for a few months? Why would reputable and honorable breeders like Bodhi deal with them - or, if he doesn't, why would he let them get away with 'representing' his company but selling fake Bodhi beans? It doesn't add up to me. Surely Queen City Genetics would never allow that.....:eyesmoke:

All the above listed businesses have been around for quite awhile. Fake beans would have been reported long ago if that was the case. Besides.......breeders packs can be opened and resealed easily in most cases, ya know? It looks to me that most all the fraud in the seed game is happening on domestic soil among the many new bean peddlers.

Do you have any opinions on specific US based vendors? That is, are there any that you've used that you're convinced are selling phony beans, or any that you know are selling the real deal?

You right bro never tho but of it that way lol. I'm over in another thread telling someone to think use logic on the bs GSC story and I didn't even use it on that lol. It's early and I have no meds to burn right now will later but you are def right. It looks they have been around for a while so like you said most breeders would have denied any ties with them if known to be selling fake beans. They might just end up getting some of my money lol

Yes looking now it has to be real, it kind of doesn't make sense for them to have lots of other Bodhi strains out of stock. also only 2 Lucky Charms left : ( if it was fake surely they would let you pick loads more.
Yea I talked to the rep here and he did say they trade for beans all the time with legit people and come into rare stuff that was once in stock. It's just suspicious when you see something like them in stock when you know there are none being sold.

Email the breeder? That's usually my way to go.

Maybe it was in stock because the seeds he had tried to buy were at first inventoried as unavailable when they were waiting for cc auth, but when they weren't sold to him they were put back in stock?

just got 2 seeds of dragon fruit and 2 seeds of skylotus, what s the latest on those beans, people getting good results, pics? I gotta say my home made cross with Ancient OG is so loved by everyone I had to try some other bodhi<s strains to mix in the gene pool. Also included in my recent order is a seed from Loud, Ganja Farmer OG, that I am really stoked about too, been listening to the song for years now gonna grow the strain!!
yes. good results.

i gotta a bomb forever ever keeper from sky lotus. very skywalker dom w/ not too much snow lotus. just like b-man notes w/ SL... my keeper has super funk light up your house smell, mad resin coverage, great vigor, easy care.

only issue my cut grows (support, lanky) like a true OG.

she needs help in late flower cause them nuggy things get heavy.

was able to order 2 lucky charms...(The largest amount that was available ) I only ordered them to vet Bonza... I will pop them as soon as they get here... Lets hope for Bonza's sake they're legit.... I already think it's bullshit... But hey, just speculation... So far.

Well......I just sent Bonza an e-mail asking why they still show 2 available - I took them to checkout - after purchasing the last 2 last night.

I blame @greendiamond9.........and Livers :eyesmoke:.
