Experience isn’t really necessary, it’s super simple. It’s just plants having sex. You put a boy plant and a girl plant alone in a dark room together, the boy plant gets on top of the girl plant and pees in her butt, and then the girl plant gets all fat and then you get a bunch of seeds. Hardest part is thinking what to name the seeds.

I’ve been hesitant to sign up as a breeder, because I have suspicions that a larger area might be needed, but here goes.
If I get rid of the 6" clones on the right side [Clones have been placed with a loving owner already, damn that was a record one day adoption process!], that aren’t up to standards for breeding with, then I have a 4’x4’ area with 6’ clearance under the lights, right now (the room is a mess, but it’s on the schedule for clean up next weekend and the plants on the left are clones from stuff currently in flower that will be moved or destroyed once I test their clonal parent!),
and a 2’x2’ separate area with 5’ clearance under a light, that can be used to isolate a male, right now.
I also have a 2’x4’ grow tent with 5’6" clearance under the light, that will be freed up within a month or so (waiting on 3 plants to finish late stage flowering).
[All areas are well insulated and temperature controlled with active air exchange, but with no humidity control (which hasn’t caused any issues to date).]
All soil is 100% living organic with a mulch layer, 100% natural inputs, with lots of worms and beneficial insects in every handful of it. I use only living solutions for pests, such as predatory mites, nematodes, sprayable microbiology (Don’t even bother to tell me to spray chemicals/oils, I won’t. I’ll order living controls and ignore the -flavor of the day- suggestion!). Depending on what the plants want, I supplement nutrients with PacificGro Oceanic Hydrolysate, insect frass, em1, gro-kashi, fermented plant juice (KNF-FPJ, using comfrey & wild carrot/dandelion greens), water soluble calcium (KNF-WCA, using bone & eggshells), malted barley powder, kelp, etc. [Almost all of my supplements are from KIS Organics, which is very close by, or Build-A-Soil.] I also apply aerated compost teas 5-8 times during each grow cycle, using a Tim Wilson designed 55 gallon bioreactor.
The 4x4 area is watered with blumats and the 2x4 & 2x2 areas are hand watered to approx. 100 millibars on a blumat moisture meter.
I have never worked with Bodhi gear before. I have grown over 40 different strains (probably more if I actually counted) from pure landrace sativas to self created feminized auto flowers, so I’m at least well versed in the variations that exist within the cannabis species. I’ve also grown on the commercial scale, which is less impressive than it sounds, since it’s more about managing people & record keeping at that scale, than it is about spending time with each plant.
If chosen, I can grow out up to 10 plants, isolating any males in the 2x4 & 2x2 areas, and keeping all of the girls in the 4x4 area. They will each be grown to approximately 18" (unless fewer seeds germinate and more area is freed up for low stress training) and then the females will be flipped to flower, with the males being flipped 1-2 weeks later so that I get a higher flower count before pollen comes on full steam. All females will get open pollinated multiple times by all male plants. Plants will be culled if they appear to be genetically inferior (as decided by a vote), just as flowering stretch takes place. Once the females are fully pollinated and some extra pollen is collected for future community projects, I will cull the males. The pollinated females will be grown until all the seeds are fully mature (usually 40ish days) before they are dried and processed. I have bucked and deseeded dozens of plants for seed production purposes in the past. [If, and only if, an exceptionally stellar “keeper” plant is identified then I’ll make some clones.]
All decisions that can reasonably be made with input from the OG crew will be done that way (*see my philosophy on pesticide sprays above). I keep a grow journal on OG that is updated with photos once a week, time permitting, so progress can be followed. Feel free to ask questions if I haven’t covered them.
Disclaimer: over a decade of growing has taught me that there is constantly stuff to learn and to always stay humble.

If there are enough breeders, I may have another special B pack I’m willing to donate on top of the DBHP and 1/2 pack SSDD. It’s his very special CBD Line, Good Medicine.

I’d be comfy with @MomOnTheRun doing a f2 run if we’ve got a position open.
I’m not usually into giving too much to new members but 1. her current grow is solid
2. She’s already got my prerequisite number of reputation pips.
3. She has experience with CS and opens possibility of a fem release later on for our picky members.
4. Not enough lady growers in the world, I’ve been inspired by IG personalities like Ms radreefer, and Cali.farmgirl and think we need more like them.
I am in approval of everyone else so far as well.

What are we doing here? F2 and gifting some bodhi stuff?
I’m in the process of collecting sunshine daydream pollen now. Was planning to f2.

@Dewb Yup we are getting people to donate or be involved in anyway to f2 bodhis work and gift them free of charge to anyone who need them, if your already going to f2, and want to be involved, please vote breeder. You could be getting us closer to success sooner than expected. . . even donating some pollen for us would be great my brother!

Just a thought, but I have had some seeds seized by customs… Should we pick breeders that are in the same country? Less chance of customs issues in mailing?

If that’s going to be a possibility then absolutely, I agree 100% and also as a disclaimer the breeders must all follow all state and or country laws regarding marijuana cultivation and should be legal to do so, Reasonable doubt - Wikipedia,
we want to be safe over everything guys, @Meesh has brought this to my attention, thank you😁.
