Also i would like to add the focus here is just preserving these for the community. Shoe said some nice things about that queen mother goji cut and a lot of people on here love goji and snow lotus. I thought itd be best to have these with someone who would actually run them.

Hi @SWIM_Yenobi
Everything is fine dude thanks I’m in the process of crossing outdoors.
Afterwards I have my cuttings for the interior which are ready.
On the program my cross SSH plus some tests of other things 
.
And there I put down my seat I wait for the rest of your culture in a hurry to see some bud porn 
. See you

Thanks for sharing your breeding projects with us all, I enjoyed reading the whole thread. Had to pause a few times so I had more likes to share.
There’s a lot of information and useful tips throughout, another inspiring thread IMHO. It’s always interesting to see how others do certain things and breeding projects are my favorite.
Being from Europe those sour diesels have something mythical about them so I will need to do a hunt through some seeds sooner or later.
I could not help myself and dropped a whole lot of my old seeds in some pots while reading through your thread. They are not sprouting reliably last 2 years but I unexpectedly got some others to sprout last days so there’s still some hope. If nothing happens soon I will be focusing on newer seeds for now.
Good luck on the snow lotus reproduction, I’ll be watching the progress

Big fan of the ONYCD, As I said I need to catch up on yours and several other journals. I will. You always give good lineage insight.

Snow Lotus BX V1 + V2 Preservation Project
Snow Lotus Research
Surprisingly very little photo information available or journals. Primarily used as a Breeding Stud by Bodhi. There was a previous repo setup on here I used for my early structure ID and it’s similar. The male Bodhi used was provided from same thread by a member here (Below).
Bodhi Description of Snow Lotus via schwaggy P on CP (48:20-53:20):
Goji OG (Outcross) Lineage Information:
Contains Bodhi’s Description.
Snow Lotus Lineage Information:
Snow Lotus Bx V2
(Snow Lotus x Goji OG B Cut)
Seeds received today. Germinating 6 the easy way. Will germinate other 6 when this proves effective. Snow Leopard V2 also arrived.
Snow Lotus Bx V1
(Snow Lotus x Goji OG QM [Queen Mother])
Structure photos.
Frank Lem’mexze Testing
Light and wind increased. Will begin flower soon.
-Bonus Stardawg (Guava/Corey {via GMO}) x Mexican
Stonefarm Sour Diesel IBL Preservation Project
Day 17 Flowering
Will be removing the first round of males this weekend (x2-3 Males). Removing most sexually matured (open). Will be freezing all chopped males again.
-Male Structure & Leaf Traits-
few males purpled from under feeding but corrected with fresh nutes.
Sour Diesel Keeper/Breeder Seedrun
Will be placed outside in small greenhouse soon. Will pollinate in 2 cycles then run to seed maturity.
Reach For The Stars! Finally got these ladies back on track and ready for flower.

That you everyone.
I got 6/6 germination on these Snow Lotus Bx V2. Going to soak the rest tomorrow.
Not going to put up for Co-op. Too much stress I just want to do my own thing for now. I’m donating some packs for Co-op to balance it.
I received the Snow Lotus V2 from a trade on RIU.
If anyone did not get their Sour Diesel Seeds from the original 20 send me a message before I close this chapter.
Next Projects:
1.) Banana Project
Females- Hammerhead-Chiquita Banana S1, Symbiotic- Banana Punch, Jaws- Banana Kush F10 (2021), Nacho and El Sapo- Banana OG F3, Oro Verde- OG Banana King
(Feminized or will remove all males and unstable. Would bond to 24 plants)
Male- Modified Banana F2
(To guarantee that I can take this strain to F3.)
Looking for another pack. I got mine from Respect prior to split.)
2.) 1990s Black Widow Family from Shanti, Seed Embryo Rescue/ Monster Garden Kit. Open Pollination.
Last shot. About 50 seeds
Will do 2 first.
I keep telling my brain to stay in this journal and only like stuff. I’m working on it. I really want it this way.
Going forward everything I make will be kind of trade only. Only when someone ask me or an ISO post. A couple donations. Quite a few people I sent seeds to aren’t here anymore. It’s a pain keeping track of too.
What I’ll be looking for trade will be Landrace/Heirloom and Hazes. If the work I’m doing can keep me from spending money on seeds I’d be happy.
I’ve reread my journal, it feels quite messy so I will stay within a formula from now on. Plant updates only. No seed vault updates. No debates about clonestock (I’m keeping MMB and GG4, unless I actually drop them I will not mention it again.). No personal updates. Just plants, research, and project updates would be ideal.
Full updates coming this weekend. Saturday and Sunday will be my only update days going forward.

hi @SWIM_Yenobi
Always interesting to see how others germinate their old seed stock:+1:.
For the rest in tissue culture Athena has a kit but not the means… too bad.
And by the way, you have done phyto studies etc. Do you think that the HLVd virus leaves after regeneration in tissue culture or does it stay whatever happens?
I read 2 versions and I would like your opinion 
. I understood that if a cut does not have several regenerations the virus was still present…
See you

You must do meristem tissue culture and test for the presence of the virus after regeneration.

Thanks for the response @leetdood 
.
So tissue culture does not necessarily prevent HLVd… Interesting.
Do they have average number of times ratios for a clean strain?
It’s potentially a lot of work to find the clean base cut again…

Yes it is a lot of work and you have to be trained in meristem tissue culture specifically. Thats why hlvd remediation can cost 10k.
