@stanknugzz77 I was meaning to ask, as far as continuing your genetics, whats the policy. If i can get a couple sets of parents can i continue to work them? ill respect your wishes. @_@

@bodhi

iv’e have had some friends that have asked me to clarify my best practices and wishes for working with my seeds. the cannabis community has grown exponentially and theres a lot of new passionate growers and seed makers, in the early days of the online forums it was a much smaller community, there was a code and mutual respect that i think kept us engaged and integrated even if we did not always agree on everything. i would love to see that flourish again, half the fun of making seeds is meeting new people, trading, collaborating, and creating a strong, vibrant, and healthy community.

nobody owns nature, we all borrow from the past and creative for the future, i feel honored and deep reverence and joy that other gardeners work with and use my creations for their own creative work and inspiration. we are all in this together, the cannabis genome is a never ending collage guided by endless hands and the great green spirit. we are protectors and shepherds of this most sacred garden planet.

these are my feelings on seed creation

please make hybrids with any of my stuff, please create more seeds to find your special expression, go deeper, or take things in new directions. trade, gift, even sell* but find your flow and niche, these are unfinished works of art we all work on as a community.

i know we live in a group reality but not everybody sees it the same way so heres my guidelines for maximum respect and co-creational harmony:

testers: please wait till they are released to breed with incase they are not up to par, we want to create novelty not entropy.

hybrids for personal use or for sale: yes please!

fgens of dead lines: yes please, thank you for your time and energy to allow these cultivars new life, i can also possibly provide old special lines to reproduce if theres something needed and not available.

fgens current lines: personal/friends/family… sure, but not for general distribution . i would prefer that you focus on lines that need reproduction over things that are currently stocked by bodhi seeds. *current fgens for profit is ok if you have isolated or line bred your own unique expression of a line with documentation. (bare min 2 generations).

Again, I truly appreciate you asking beforehand @Ris.

@bodhi put it beautifully, but just to add my own words:

Please just be respectful of my work, as well as others’. My family is not depending on my seed sales to eat; the little bit that I make from selling seed goes right back into my operation. In other words, I have way too much overhead haha. If you are unsure as to whether or not you should be doing something with my work, please always feel free to come and ask me. Really just treat my work and others’ the way you would like your own to be treated. If you find something that you enjoy and you wish to work with it, please feel free to do so. If you are unsure if doing so will be stepping on my toes, come to me and ask. Other than that, grow weed, make seed, fuck greed. Positive vibes…
