Haha very much understand your post, and I agree wholeheartedly.
I just repotted them into slightly larger containers and am first working on making them into nice bushes. I plant to open pollinate between the six, and keep a cut of my fav looking female and male. The male might be cool to keep, Appalachia male made some of my fav bohdi strains. It might be interesting to see those genes usedon future projects or cuts.
It's such a small sample size, I feel bad about calling this a 'preservation'. More like an exploration into my little corner of this gene pool.
Should be fun. Thanks for the feedback
Cool, I'm glad you have been able to decipher my post. I totally agree with you on the APPALACHIA male,I've made some crosses from BODHI fathered by this male and I had incredible results. My favorite were the Prayer Tower (Indica Lemon Thai mother) and Mother Milk so I'm very happy to see someone making some seeds with the original MM release.
I understand what you mean about the small population number so maybe it doesn't deserve the "preservation" title but at least this strain won't totally disappear and that's a very good news to me.

Definitely keep any appy lines you have. some of those older ones are really good but you dont see them floating around much. pura vida, blood orange, blueberry hill, etc. ive just got mother's milk, SSDD, ASS, plus a few others. the powdered milk perfume pheno of the mothers milk is really nice.
and even with 2-4 m and f each, you should be able to maintain most of the diversity of the line. if each has 50% of the genome, 6 individuals should give you 95%+ of the total genome
How I could forget the Blood Orange, I had a keeper for long time with good yield, strong in your face high and a crazy taste of orange. This one was what every grower is looking for, all qualities in one package.
This is some pic of my Prayer Tower keepers, I couldn't decide which one was the better so I kept 2 PT mothers, again great yielding plants(I think the APPALACHIA male gave this trait to most of his offspring), one had a taste of lemon and peanut, very unique and enjoyable, the other was more on the fruity side, like an exotic fruits salad taste. They had both a similar happy high, very upbeat, the kind of weed who put a smile on your face in the morning. It was softer than the Blood Orange who could be a pretty agressive and non functioning high but vey nice for smoking in the morning or during the day.
Again sorry for the bad quality pics, this pics were taken a long time ago with a shitty phone camera.
On the 3rd and 4th pics the smaller plants are some clones of my Headbanger keeper I had at that time. PT and HB was a very nice harvest quality wise.
The 1st pic shows both PT keepers, they were very similar. The 2nd pic is PT B, the fruit salad phenotype, the 4th pic is PT A, the peanut/lemon phenotype.
I have some '88G13/HP that were given to me a few years ago. Guess it's time to pop them! I have run a few Bodhi strains in the last few years. I always get something good, but I guess the best one I got was Blue Lotus. It had such a nice grapey taste, and a beautiful high. Lost her but did some crosses with a Blue Lotus male. Blue Lotus X Sour Diesel was a big winner.
One of the things I have always loved about ICMAG is the chance to peek into other grower's grow rooms. To get new ideas, and to see how I'M doing in comparison. I really remember when I first realized I was keeping up with some of the best. And a big reason for it was seeing other ops for tips.
