Looking for God Bud seeds JOTI circa 2004

[Shmavis]

Still haven’t thoroughly sampled each one yet (too many jars, too little time). But so far rather happy with the strength and effects. None are loud but there are some nice terps, with one having notes of lavender. The big girl and the other most like her are heavy on the body. First sample of big girl’s sis I took about six big rips after having had a couple glasses of bourbon - found myself passed out in the chair about four hours later, still disoriented. The other two, my early pick and the other most like it, bring more of an enjoyable headspace to the ride - more well rounded.

Pulled just shy of 100 healthy viable looking seeds from the big girl. Lot of immature nonviable looking seeds from the one that topped itself. Probably only got about 30 that look good. I vegged the three cuts for way too long under way too little light (96w T5). In hindsight it might’ve been a good thing as I clearly stressed them and later found no signs of intersex traits. They did not branch out, just like their respective seed plant and never developed more than three leaflets per fan leaf. The three were potted up and moved under a 600w HPS to hopefully make more seeds. Wasn’t sure if the pollen would still be viable at the time of dusting, was relieved to find it was. Will be harvesting the seeds soon.

Running cuts of the three now. Normal bladed fan leaves and I even got them to branch out, so excited to see how they do. They were vegged under LED and even did their first five days of flower under it. I had to move them to the HPS after another line gave me way too many girls and left no space in the tent. One acts like it may be going through some shock due to the move. Hopefully only temporary.

Some random pics I never got around to posting:

Last night I was squeezing flowers to see how well seeded they are. The resin is not sticky, not greasy, but rather feels like sand - odd.

Not a great pic but shows they've branched out for round 2.

Plan is to some day grow out a good number of these F3s to make the next generation (with more than one male) to hunt through the resulting F4s. I think there's good potential in the line and very well may be legit God Bud.

nice to see them going.. i thought they turned out nothing to write home about.
any true couchlockers in there Smavis? passing out after bourbon doesn't count)

This line does remind of the GB based on looks and some of the S1’s that were made. It appears this seed stock is fairly open with the phenos you’ve shown. Where did this come from again?

Hey Nirrity, you’re right, and I didn’t mean to imply a couchlock effect/potential necessarily but rather one of (potential) strength/potency. It’s not unusual for me to do early sampling after a drink or two - it’s almost somewhat of a ritual. It is however unusual to find myself knocked out. I wasn’t drunk, just riding with that warm glow some bourbon adds. I do of course also sample when sober. That said, I still haven’t gotten around to smoking each with a clear mind to give a fair assessment but early thoughts are that there is not a true couchlocker in these phenos. I can see them lending themselves very nicely to surfing the couch; but a true couchlocker might yet need to be unearthed. Or maybe I just need to be more in tune with these plants for harvest windows. Will be interesting to see if this next round brings about a significant difference.


My thinking about it all is that God Bud is known due to a selection from a particular seed line. Its fame based on a cut. Whether this particular F2 line is from JOTI’s work or BCBD’s offering I do not know but I do see similarities to what is documented online of God Bud. I think it worthy of further digging. And it looks as though I will end up with more than enough seeds for that to happen. Which is great because my main goal was to make fresh seed stock for the future (if it looked promising). Going to have to share too, it may be a bit before I can do the deep dive with them. Sometime in 2023 I will pop G-SUS and I imagine at least a few (probably 5) of these also. I also still have a few seeds of JOTI’s God Bud that I bought circa ’13 and will likely (try to) pop those remaining seeds as well.

So the hunt continues my friend.

Thanks @browntrout, I agree that the plants look representative of God Bud. I do not regret rolling the dice on the purchase. I got them through HD. Cad - USA had the offering. I was unable to find any info at the time on Cad - USA. They only had a few offerings listed, with this being one. It’s sold out but the listing is still up. If I remember correctly I only paid $28. It wasn’t even listed as a sale at the time and I later saw the price go up. Even though the listing was for “God” Brad confirmed that they’re an F2 of God Bud. You’re welcome to some seeds if you’d like.

Ahh right, I looked that one over a few times. I would surely welcome some! Especially in the event my friends find a worthy S1 and need a male for preservation.

Do you mean to say your friends are hunting through S1s of God Bud? If the case, that sounds very promising!

I whacked the plants yesterday. Just over 8wks after being pollinated. I allowed them to go until seeds were literally popping out.

Got these from the first squeeze of one plant.

Planned to clean and sort these before moving on to the next plant. But thought I should first smoke some of the finger hash I had just accumulated. Well, four hits later and I realized that was a mistake. My productivity finished for the day at that point. Will return to them this evening. Once harvested cleaned and sorted I will let them dry for at least a couple weeks and get them on their way.

Happy Sunday!

Ahhh used to love God Bud! Brings back memories hah. GCG was good too! Green Crack x God Bud.

I recently tried to pop some vintage JOTI blueberry but none were viable unfortunately. They weren’t stored properly as i didn't know i had them hehe.

Would love to hear of your experience with God Bud. Did you grow it, or just smoke it? Do you know if what you had, or had access to, was the cup winning cut? Bummer about the Blueberry I have read that his BB line is very good.

Well for as happy as I was to get the one girl to branch out it appears there might be a reason she isn't inclined to do so... all floppies for the lats. And unfortunately the stalk not that rigid. To my horror I found her completely folded over at the base. There I was one day telling myself she was taking on a lean and needed to be staked soon, to finding her down the very next day. I think she's going to be OK though. These are the three cuts at week 5 that were ran for seeds now being ran for reevaluation.

 

[Shmavis]

I am finding much stronger aromas coming off these plants on the rerun. The one back left that had folded over did so again. I staked her after the first incident and tied her to the stake just below the cola. Found her the other day folded over just below the top. Definitely not a sturdy-stalked gal. Grabbed some pics of the tops this past weekend at 8wks. Will more than likely take the small one at 9wks. Interested to see how much fox tailing the one does - she's giving off some nice skunky smells.

 

[Shmavis]

The rerun is done. Really kick myself for not marking and following the two seedlings that emerged purple... early in the thread it's mentioned that a trait of God Bud is the purpling underneath the fans. Two of the girls, that happened to be in the rerun, exhibit this and makes me wonder if they're the two seedlings.

Looking forward to sampling these!

Getting her dialed in now brother! Looks great. Curious how you find the flavours on these.

Looks exactly like an old god bud clone I keep around
