I could get you some SSDD F2s. Theyā€™re not free. Iā€™m paying for them. 15pk $70 includes shipping.

Getting them from a friend of Dr Grenskye from RSSC (Red Scare). I actually never asked for them here. I think I mentioned on Instagram that I was interested in them on the page talking about the F2s and 420Pyros must have saw itā€¦ or he saw me trying to trade something for them.

Nice! Looks like youā€™re a fan of sfv. Canā€™t go wrong with og crosses. I also got a couple Oaxacan x angel wings. Pretty much made the order just so I could get those.

I did an order just for the Oaxacanā€™s :slight_smile:
I counted 28 seeds from both packs combined which is nice!

Ah, I have no SFV crosses or anything in the stash so I figured it was time. I snagged 4 packs of mean geneā€™s Dolores and some Purple Satellite to compliment the lack of Mexican in the stash as well to go with the Oaxacan Angel wings.

Some good times in there!!

So Iā€™ve been struggling with ph problem and spider mites since the first of the year. It looks like these Bodhi Wifi43 x Kashmir Love gifts are going to pull through and provide some regular seeds in a few weeks.

Damn people pay retail prices for open pollination F2ā€™s on IG? Iā€™m glad I found Overgrow. Iā€™ll patiently wait till you F3 those :+1:

I donā€™t think $75 Iā€™d too bad for a 15-pk of SSDDā€¦ granted I wouldnā€™t normally buy most f2 projects made by a hobbyist grower (unless itā€™s highly desired) but Dr Grenskye is promoting this guyā€™s work so thatā€™s how Iā€™m justifying it. I really admire Grenskye (Red Scare) and follow him on IG, chat too once in a while. Heā€™s another old timer and runs a farm, makes seeds himself too. I have his Tourmaline Cream, Fight Milk, and Sultans Breath packs. My buddies in Michigan say he puts out some fire. $75 to me is nothing when Iā€™ve been doing these 12 to 14 hour shifts at work a lot lately. Iā€™ll be honest thoā€¦ my seed buying days are coming to a hault pretty soon. Iā€™ve loaded up my fridge this yearā€¦ theres a few more I want but Iā€™m mostly finished buying. I gotta concentrate on what I have now.

Grenskye is the guy who sent me a pack of Bodhiā€™s Wake n Cakeā€¦one of the rarer new packs. Heā€™s a good guy.

Plus I feel better sometimes just buying/offering money for F2s than asking & coming off like a beggar. Until I make some of my own it soothes my conscious offering cash if itā€™s something I remember want. I donā€™t like asking people for stuff generally. But like I said before if its something I really want badā€¦ Iā€™ll offer cash. I think the people who spent months of their time making these seeds deserve some compensation.

Were SSDD F1s really that cheap? Thatā€™s $4.66 or something like that per seed (under $60 an 11 pack). Obviously youā€™d pay way more for an old pack of SSDD F1s nowā€¦

Nevermindā€¦

i meanā€¦ yes and no. def there are f2s that go for free here (like in the seed runs) that you see going for 150+ on IG. not sure if open pollinations should be reaching those prices. a more thoughtful selection for an F2 (of an exctinct/rare pack) by a reputable person, then maybe yes.

yeah but good luck finding SSDD F1 at 45.

No they were about $75-$80 new on avg depending on the seedbank at the time. Little cheaper on Breedbay/Seurbidz. Most of their Bodhi packs were around $55 or so I thinkā€¦ but they were cash in the mail/international money order only and you had to wait 2 to 3 weeksā€¦ USA seedbanks werenā€™t really a thing back then.

The DEA would raid someone for selling seeds back then. The laws and the way people viewed Cannabis in the mid 2000s was quite a bit different.

Truly no disrespect, but that isnā€™t Bodhiā€™s motto. Just for clarification, I made that up a couple of years back and I recently posted it in a reply in my tester thread here when someone asked me my feelings about people making F2s with my testers/work. I posted my thoughts AFTER a quote from Bodhi on his feelings about people using his work to make seeds, so I can definitely see how multiple people got confused haha.

I am currently having shirts printed with my logo on the front and my motto on the back, so I really donā€™t need people thinking that I ripped off Bodhiā€™s motto hahaha. Positive vibesā€¦

Edit to add a link to my original post with my motto haha:

My bad man, itā€™s a nice motto.

I know nothing about the ā€œseed gameā€.

I came here to get medicine for cancer patients, I got it for free thanks to a bunch of really nice people.

Going forward Iā€™ll make seeds & distribute them to people who need them for free.

How much people charge/pay for seeds is none of my business, doesnā€™t affect me & I wonā€™t bring it up again :+1:

No harm, no foul.

I donā€™t care to be involved in any disputes really anywhere (that is why I didnā€™t and donā€™t comment on shit like that), but when I saw my motto being mistaken for Bodhiā€™s motto for like the 4th time by multiple people, I had to clarify. I wish you all well. Positive vibesā€¦

I know the money topic has been talked about again, and again in multiple threads on every single canna forum on the internetā€¦ so itā€™s like kicking a dead horseā€¦

I will say this howeverā€¦ when I offer someone cash for seedsā€¦ and they accept the offerā€¦ they go out. I get em. Both parties are happy. When someone says theyā€™re going to send me something freeā€¦ and this has happened to me a couple times in the last few monthsā€¦ I give my info and addressā€¦ they say theyā€™re gonna send itā€¦ I waitā€¦ and waitā€¦ nothing comes. Since I paid nothing I canā€™t justify getting upset nor do I even complainā€¦ but itā€™s a minor annoyance. Had I the opportunity to pay for either pack and actually get them in my handsā€¦ I would have done so. Bodhi accepts payment for seeds. Heā€™s made f2s and used them as incentives to buy his packs as wellā€¦ like when he made Chocolate Trip f2s. He calls his seed lines ā€œunfinished symphoniesā€ and literally said to me ā€œdo whatever brings joy.ā€

To me joy is securing a rare or unreleased pack or two of seeds, doing a hunt and discovering a beautiful phenotype that ends up surprising me in some wayā€¦ and trying to capture that in some way using photos and words. I like obtaining seeds that are harder to aquire like the Black Sunshine I just bought at auctionā€¦ or the Dragonsblood x A11gā€¦ because I know itā€™ll make me happy to share that experience with others who will probably never get the chance to do that themselvesā€¦ unless I make f2s.

My first Bodhi plantā€¦ Purple Moonshine (Sr71pk x OTM) from so many years backā€¦
