Bodhi Guide - Seed and Strain Discussion (Part 1)

Definitely I’m a huge fan of the DLA series, and just the strength of the g13/hp hybrids in general!

Yeah didn’t mean to tease lol but the good news is they’re packaged up with labels and all that jazz so I hope that means they are coming out soon!

good to see you around here, I’ve enjoyed your posts and your doubledecker dangerfield avatar on other forums.

from the older packs, dirty sanchez and appalachia bx would be interesting. The outdoor skunk sounds intriguing.

a Purple PCK used to show up sometimes in collectives during the prop 215 medical days, I really liked that for migraine meds.

From the newer packs on the left, I’d go with the electric hashplant. PNW dogshit is a very unique plant, smells like the primate habitat at the zoo. haven’t seen it around here in oregon as bud or clone since the first year of legalization.

So far, I think the old mother ghani is my personal favorite male that bodhi has used. The hybrids I have grown have been very medicinal, strong fruity terpene profiles, a lot of decent yielders, and produced consistently healthy and happy plants.

The omg hybrids also seem to clone easily.

Yeah, like others have said, the NL5Haze cross and the Appalachia bx sound good. I grew four Time Bandits a couple years ago and they were really good, too.

I dunno about those Oreoz crosses and the Gelato crosses and shit, though…Might wanna just send those back to B haha!

Like zephyr mentioned, the OMG crosses that I’ve grown have all been very good, so that Old Soul cross would probably be worthwhile. It’d probably be pretty interesting to see how the OMG combines with that Pinesoul.

Also, like everybody else has said, I dig your posts on icmag. I still revisit that old Bodhi thread every now and then.

I’ve noticed this with my limited experience with omg both the old soul cuts I have root faster and easier then anything I’ve tried to clone so far

Dagnabbit! I really wanted to grab the fucking Nikah, but I didn’t have the grip for it.
My only 2 regrets so far are that and Zap!

have you grown any sativa leaning crosses with the omg? ive only grown smart move and it was indica leaning but it was a good yielder, nice terpenes, powerful flavor, and good potency. i have dread bread still… might pop that, will have to revisit minitigers grow of it.

Yeah I grow the (ethiopian paintbrush x omg), which bodhi named god’s paintbrush, and I tested its sister (ethiopian banana x omg) which wasn’t released. I call them Ethiopian Afghani.

2 of the ethiopian banana phenos in particular were the most amazingly insane sativas I have ever experienced, in terms of both the growth traits and the high. Unfortunately those were a little bit unstable. Those are documented in my journal and the bodhi guide part 1 thread.

I found one bulletproof stable pheno of the banana x omg which was more like a balanced 50/50 hybrid.

The paintbrush x omg line is stable.

the Ethiopian Afghani is the most medicinal strain I have found to control the symptoms of my muscular condition. I’m working on an update for my grow journal to document the paintbrush x omg.

This is the stable pheno of the ethiopian banana x omg. I keep it as a clone.
Smells like a perfectly ripe nectarine, with a slight cool sensation almost like mint.
Right now I’m mainly using concentrate. The flavor is light, sweet and fruity. Mostly nectarine and passionfruit with hints of meyer lemon and mango.





doc d used the ethiopian banana in his bananastan hybrid.
but it looks like that isn’t available anymore, now he has a bananastan v2 made with banana kush as the mother.

I am also looking forward to trying the dread bread.

Does anybody know how dread bread performs for outdoor growing?
I’m still trying to decide whether to run this indoor or outdoor.

I’m also curious what smells are like. Does the mango biche actually smell mango-ish?

the omg usually contributes an overall fruitiness, and often a floral lemon note.

That appalachia BX though. I wouldnt mind helping to test that.

The flowers on the two that I grew (indoors) were rock-fucking-solid. They also got chopped on day 77 (and probably could’ve gone another week), so I dunno how well they’d do outdoors in the PNW or if they’d finish up in time to avoid the rainy-ness haha. I’d be pretty worried about mold, considering how dense the flowers turned out. Although, now that I think about it, they weren’t “bushy” or anything, so maybe the increased airflow would mitigate the inclement weather a little bit.

They also got pretty tall, but I know you don’t care too much about that haha.

The Dread Breads smelled really “creamy fruity” while they were growing, possibly “mango-ish,” but they kinda lost that after the dry. I attribute that to the fact that it was like 82-84 degrees in the drying area when they were hanging last September. It was like 115 degrees for dayyyyyys here right when they got chopped, there was nothing I could do about that heat, even with the AC running 24/7.

They smelled great before they got chopped, though haha. I bet in an ideal drying environment, they’d retain that smell.

So, to answer your question, I’d run them indoors haha!

Plant them, dude! No need to revisit the thread haha. That was great weed, definitely worth a grow or three.

I stink at describing flavors and smells… maybe I’m not sufficiently familiar with the flavor and smell of mango, but I wouldn’t say the Mango Biche x Kashmir I ran had much of a mango smell or flavor? I did run it outdoors, and for sure some delicate flavors can get lost in my outdoor…

Also, random side note, but a certain podcaster with the initials “M.R.” had “Red Rider” (an ICMag guy?) on his podcast recently and he talked a little about Mango Biche. According to him it means “unripe mango” and should have more of a lemony note? I dunno, working off memory of a podcast I listened to a week or more ago.

Personally I’m curious about the Cherry Hashplant… but also, what’s the rest of the one that says “Sterling/xc” say on it?

I ran mango biche x kashmir as testers, and also a few f2 of them… can confirm mango flavor does show up…

11 Likes

You run those indoor or out?

I ran the testers and the f2 indoors, have a few more f2 going now… but on the back burner behind 2 seed runs… I believe the heaviest mango flavor I had, was on a kashmir frame…only pics I have left are on ig…

I haven’t grown any of the Kashmir crosses, so I can’t speak to that, but I’d imagine that that male is pretty different from the OMG male, as far as smells/flavors are concerned. Every OMG cross I’ve grown has smelled noticeably fruity, especially if they lean OMG (short plants, barely any stretch, huge rails of flowers etc etc). The Dread Breads were tall, but the flowers seemed more “Afghani” as far as structure was concerned. Like I said, they were fucking rock-hard. Didn’t seem like a Colombian-type flower to me haha, although the plant morphology itself was.

My point is: odds seem good that any of the OMG crosses are gonna turn out some fruity plants.

Did you log that Mango Biche x Kashmir, @yardgrazer? I’d be interested in reading that one, sounds interesting.

Edit: I take that back. The Nikah that I just chopped did not smell fruity at all. And that one for sure leaned OMG as far as morphology is concerned. But all of the other OMG crosses I’ve grown have definitely smelled very fruity haha.

I stink when it comes to keeping logs in general, and last summer was even more of a c-f than past summers. I have photos, most of which are unlabelled… but I know which plants the MBxK were. I didn’t even keep any notes, though I think I remember it all fairly well. I liked those plants.

Dirty Hippy and Snow Lotus seem to have the same combination of strains in their makeup? Afgooey x Blockhead, unless this is not correct. Are these just two different phenotypes from the same breeding? Or does anyone know the backstory of how the two divergent lines came to be?
