The BH7, despite being a 105 day cut, is really exceptional. My only issue with it is that it’s soooooooo relaxing that you really shouldn’t call it a “sativa” or “haze.” And apparently taking it early doesn’t improve it. But it’s great smoke.
The Santa Cruz Blue Dream smoke is on this list, however, I may drop it off the list because the plant wasn’t a great grower for me. But it’s at least worth a re-run at a future date. The smell and flavor of this one is exactly like the blueberry weed I got in Portland and Dead tour in the mid 90s. The smoke is such piney blueberry deliciousness and the effects are so happy and anti-anxiety that just about everyone likes it except for those jaded heavy Chem D smokers for whom nothing is ever enough short of smoking fentanyl or shooting up heroin or whatever. SCBD is not potent, but it’s always good. Also, my gf loves it.
The Tahoe is likely on this short list because it’s just so darn bulletproof and so much different. It’s not ultra potent, but it’s medium/high potency and very enjoyable headie indica effects. Also, it grows and clones exceptionally well without any complaints - a joy to cultivate. It doesn’t strike me as an OG, but I really enjoy it.
The Chem 91 Skunk VA is also exceptional. It may be a little lower down the list, but it’s still fantastic for the reasons noted above.
Honorable mention to Irene…it tastes great and it’s decently potent…if only it didn’t grow so slow and weird in veg/early flower. If I regularly had pain, I might also include that Matt Berger Bubba cuz it legit did alleviate a headache for a couple hours, and it smells great in the jar! I also have five “new to me” cuts coming down in the next few weeks, so there’s potential for something else to make the list.
But seriously, so far even the best of these cuts were just barely up there with the best phenos from quite a few of bodhi’s crosses I’ve grown. People on this forum often convince themselves and others that certain crosses suck because they grew out two or three phenos and didn’t find something exceptional. You need to plant more seeds cuz there’s incredible stuff to be found…but you prolly won’t find it by popping half a pack or less.
I know, I know - people are gonna say, “Keepers or it didn’t happen.” Well, being a renter sucks. And, after a year+ hiatus from sprouting seeds, I’m ready to get back to it and start sharing keepers. Maybe in the Fall!
Damn dude, are you just swimming in cash?!? lol I keep thinking I need a new camera to take weed pics, but then I think, is it worth several thousand dollars to me to take better pics to post so other people can view them on a website that automagically compresses them? Nah, fuckit, you get what you get from my shitty 5yo phone, internet friends. And I’ll save that cash for a downpayment on a house some day. But, if I happen to meet you in person, I’ll happily send you home with as much free weed as you can handle, and then you’ll know the pics don’t do it justice.
The one thing I will say for both you and syz is I personally think your branch/budshots and whole plant pics need a little better lighting. You’re losing a little contrast and depth by using such low light or diffuse flash. They don’t need to be blown out and overexposed, but some of them are very low light and a little flat. It could also be this budget craptop’s screen, too, or my old man eyes!
agree. You and syz are two of the best growers & photographers here. You make the rest of us look like amateur hoarders living in between piles of refuse stacked to the ceiling. Seriously.
