I did an outdoor F2 project of Bodhi’s Sun Ra F1’s this spring, and am looking to have a few growers test them out, before I do a larger distribution. I’m looking for growers that will be able to plant the seeds within 30 days of receipt, and can post occassionally in this thread on their progress, and their overall results. What I’m really looking to find out, is do these seeds have any hermophradotic traits in them?
My F2 projects, featured one male, and two females that came out very, very similar in structure, smell/taste, and effect. The flavor and effect are so similar I do not think I would be able to tell the difference in a blind test.
Here are some photos of the plants:
The male at full maturity. I found him to be promising on one hand because he has trichs which is the first I’ve experienced growing out a male
The potential issue with this male, is that while he was resinous, he also through a few pistils. Not many, but they did show up on a few clusters.
The two females
Here are a few veg shots
Close to harvest time
Effects
Trying out the two plants, within a few weeks of harvested, vaporized, I think they are very similar. Very frosty bright green buds. Citrus and fuel smell and flavor. More gas than citrus. High is calming, and centering. Provides an internal warmth that makes one slower, but still clear overall. Has a mild physical body high. Overall: Really strong flavor, paired with calming, therapeutic effects.
That’s the information I’ve got regarding the parents, but I also have grown out a number of other Sun Ra females that I very much enjoyed. I grew one outdoor last summer, one indoor last winter, and I had a failed seed project that had very promising plants, that were taken down by powdery mildew. From all these grows, strong flavor, associated with citrus has been the main theme. 3/4 have been more indica dominant, whereas the outdoor one, was sativa dominant in effects. With some quick searching, there have been a lot of favorable reports about Sun Ra on OG, so I thought it would be an interesting f2 project.
Here is my smoke report from the outdoor Sun Ra
Grown: Outdoor
Bud Shots: at 63 days flowering
Smell and taste:
Bright citrus smell. Kind of like a freshly peeled grapefruit/orange slice for a cocktail. Flavor is very sour grapefruit, with a sweet, hint of grass, after taste. Very full bodied flavor.
Potency and effects:
I would give this a solid B+ when it comes to potency, not weak, not overwhelming. Actually a little stronger than I would have guessed with the SFV OG in the lineage. Only other cross I’ve grown with SFV OG, SFV OG x Bubba, had great effects but was very mild in potency. I would say the effects a true hybrid, slightly leaning more towards sativa dominant. Upfront it has a light body high, alertness, wandering mind, ready to go do things. Then, after it has reached it’s peak in terms of how high it’ll get me, it settles into a relaxing, settled calm place.
Overall:
Really nice flavor on this strain, probably it’s best feature in my opinion. Very full bodied, bright sour citrusy smoke that really coats the tongue. Definitely has a place in my strain drawer for going out, socializing, and being active. It’s not really that chill in terms of sitting on the couch, it can kind of make me a little antsy in that setting. This kind of MJ has not been my forte historically, I’ve been more of a couch lock kind of guy, but it really is a two for one, as once it reaches it’s peak, it becomes soothing, and can be comfortable lazing around. I’ve been smoking it after work, when I want to get some stuff done around the garden or the house, as it gives me a little kick of motivation, but then also helps me start the unwinding process as time passes. Overall, I think Sun Ra is great weed for people who need to get shit done , but still want to smoke, or those enjoy being physically active after they smoke. It seems ideal for outdoor activities, and enjoying strong terps!
@syzygy thank you for gifting me these seeds! Like I’ve said before, I’m really enjoying exploring different varieties of cannabis that I really haven’t had as much exposure to. These were my first Bodhi F1’s that I’ve grown, and they won’t be my last!
Here is the smoke report for the indoor pheno
Sun Ra (SFV OG x Wookie 15) Bodhi
Grown: Indoor
Bud Shots:
At 70 days flowering

No Flash
Smell and taste:
Smells like fresh cut grass or a brewery when it’s got that very yeasty smell going. Very unique smell, with very strong flavor. It has a tinny, chemical like taste up front, with a sour lemon aftertaste on the finish. Coats the mouth in full flavor. Really powerful terps on this one!
Potency and effects:
Soothing, calming, a little spacey, can get lost in your thoughts in a meandering stream kind of way. Has a very fast come up with indica hybrid like effects. Mild body high, feel it in the top of the head and the face, but overall mentally clear and can be functional or a space cadet depending on inclination. Has some day brightening, feel good effects to it, but it isn’t uplifting in the same context that the goji is.
Overall:
This strain has been in my daily rotation in the early evening. It’s got a really great flavor profile to it, with sour lemon aftertaste, and a very pleasurable warming, feel good high that depending on quantity smoked can range from being functional to spaced out in bliss. I really do prefer this pheno compared to the outdoor one I ran which was a lot more up in effects. I smoke that one to get going on chores, whereas this is truly relaxation weed. Really happy with how this one turned out, and think there are some gems to be found in those Sun Ra seeds!
Based on my reports, and current results with the outdoor, beat up, seed plants, I think these are worth a look, and with Bodhi announcing the retirmeent of the Wookie 15 male, I’m curious if others feel the same.
Now I know this has been a lot of background info on the project, and related grows, so let’s get onto the actual request. I am looking for volunteers to pop at minimum five seeds, within a month of receiving them, and to post occasional grow updates. I would like to ask that any volunteers have been a member of OG for 6 months. I’ve germ tested the seeds, and got an 80% germ within 48 hours. I will provide at minimum 15 seeds per participant.
Not sure how much interest there will be, given the male that threw pistils, so if anything, this post can serve to help people who are holding F1’s to pop them if they are into flavorful, functional, and calming smoke! Thanks for reading!
up!
