Liner notes

The one you’ve been waiting for! We finally welcome Bodhi from Bodhi Seeds for a deep dive into the world of landrace and heirloom breeding. Bodhi shares his journey from studying ethnobotany in the Amazon to hunting for "Pure Thai" and Himalayan genetics. We discuss the "Outlaw Science" of genetic preservation, the importance of F2 generations, and the truth about the "bleeding" Dragon's Blood hash plant. Plus, Bodhi breaks down his new "Supernatural Selections" line and answers dozens of caller questions about Sunshine Daydream, Goji OG, and the future of cannabis preservation. This July 29, 2016 episode of The Adam Dunn Show, is one of the most anticipated and requested sessions in the show's history. After a year of "courting," the legendary and elusive breeder Bodhi (Bodhi Seeds) finally joins Adam in the studio for an extensive masterclass on ethnobotany, genetic preservation, and the "magic" of plant spirit. The episode is a masterclass in "Science" and genetic history. Bodhi discusses his background in religious anthropology and how his work with plant medicines in the Amazon transitioned into a lifelong mission with cannabis. He shares incredible stories of "seed hunting" in the Himalayas and Southeast Asia, explaining the "Earth's Wi-Fi" frequency of landrace genetics. The show also features an unprecedented number of caller shout-outs, with growers from around the world calling in to thank Bodhi for his work and ask technical questions about his various lines, including Sunshine Daydream, Goji OG, and the Dragon's Blood "bleeding" trait.
