Lookin very nice OB49, Im glad I stopped by, those ICE are lookin AmaziNG!!! The AI as well, Ive always wanted to grow her out, gotta give us a smokey report when all is said and done....Ill be pullin up a chair for the rest of this one buddy, take care. Peace
How are the plants growing Oblidio49? Those lasty pics were raw droppers , I know now they have put on a lot of weight and indoor frost . The high from my AI bud didn't last to long for me either. It lasted just above an hour and 30 min but I had the Top44 that that went 5 hours easily everytime, but the AI high is stilll better. The AI high hits you in the neck first, your neck goes numb then it moves throughout your body. You can't feel anything then the Buzzz starts to take over. No more standing after that. Drop us some piCs bro... We Are All Waiting ...
Oblidio49, hey man don't sweat the camera thing. If they go threw all that over 2 plants they're f'n nuts ... man those are f'n sweet plants... sorry I try not to swear, but I found a nice nug of BG from a few years ago, it was like finding 100 bucks, so yeah I'm pretty twacked. You have sold me on ICE, it's on my list for next year.
Beautiful piCs man, glad to see that you found your digi-cam. Keep up the good work with those healthy babes. I think you should let some of the plants flower alittle longer so you can see how far you can push those plants of yours. Let 2 or 3 good the max 10 weeks of flowering, pull them if they get alittle over due but I heard that they really fatten up if you let them go an extra week or 2 over the normal 8 to 9 weeks. I have seen some that nearly double in gurth with the extra time, some meaning all any strains. Go for it buddy, Stay safe bro ..
I noticed when I got this AM that my babies needed water. So I am giving them water and FF Beastie Bloom at 1/4 teaspoon/gallon. Maybe next time they need water I won't give them anything with it since today is day 45 flower. They generally need water every 5-6 days.
Their buds are really looking good. I'll have to tie up a couple more of the lower branches that are sagging from the weight of their buds. I think its nice that the lower branches are doing well enough to need tying up
Hey man, I'm glad to hear about the Ice. I'll be getting some for sure. Don't go by pistils, go by the tric's. Get yourself a good loop at radio shack so you can get a good clear view. As far as when it's all personal preference. If you like a couch stone let them go amber. I prefer an uplifted high, so I can still do shit I need to do lol so I crop at 30/70. I also started double cropping a few years ago. I crop half and let her go another week or two then crop the rest. This is good if you're going to run this strain or re-veg that plant again, this way you'll know exactly when to crop. You can pretty much bet that they'll go 56 days or even more, so I would feed one last blast of bloom then start flushing them out. You did a great job man, they look awesome.
Hey man your idea sounds good, I've seen a few cabs on here built using one of those rubbermaid closets, they're pretty tall so you can put a utility room in the top and still have plenty of growing room. You can usually get them on sale for 60 bucks or so.
Your plants look amazing. Clear containers are bad for roots because roots don't like sun-- That is what I have been told, But Obviuosly for next time......but I give you props for transplanting those massive plants, its definalty not always easy/
hey obli, i heard it too about clear pots r bad for roots BUT i started thinkin about it #1 they say lights r bad for roots, but the way i saw it just a few roots will see light & major root system buried inside. #2 u can see the root progress through the pots, especially if u see a sighn of some lil fuckers eating the roots. So i think those pots r more than good i never tried them so what i said is from my point of view, but i'll try them on my next grow. :wink: Your plants look blessed by god himself PS. I never tried ice or AI but about TRICHOM maybe this will help u http://www.weedfarmer.com/BB/viewtopic.php?t=7330 IT SAYS CLEAR TRICHOMS NOT ENOUGH POTENCY Goodluck!
"I like a headier high so I think cutting when 1/3 are milky 2/3 clear? Any recommendations on these strains. I never grew anything like this out."
Clear trichs contain very little thc, best wait till more like 2/3rds milky imho, don't harvest too early.. it'll affect your end yield a fair bit, looking sweet mate
what i meant u can choose 2/3 milky & 1/3 amber OR 50% milky & 50%amber.I know how it feels the more u see them buds filling sugar the more u wanna chop them coz thats what i did in my first grow lol but its buzz still low SO U BETTER BE A LITTLE MORE PATIENT ESPECIALLY IF YOUR CRYSTALS R CLEAR i would wait ATLEAST till they got 2/3 milky 1/3 amber. Milky trichoms = energetic headhigh & amber = couchlock narcotic bodyhigh. some growers harvest when 80% amber BUT DON'T HARVEST ON CLEAR TRICHOMS! :wink: u mentioned u want a good headhigh ,wait till u see 80-90% milky. u can allways try a sample of the buds tho.
no worries bro, a minute ago my eyes were getting heavy coz its 1:35am here & i'v been up from 06:00am, suddenly when i saw your ice #4 my eyes opened again lol, they all look great/healthy & jiucy u'v done a damm goodjob, but that ice#4 is awesome
I don't mean to spoil your harvest plan dude but if calaxes r still opening thats more reason to wait a few more weeks & the colas grow 15-20% more but u won't regret it, & i can imagine what nice jiucy tempting smell it has. U'r gonna have a nice harvestparty soon tc
Lookin good Obli, your plants really show that you are not lazy and that you have a GreenThumb. This grow is a movie for me , your buds look so yummy . With the AI, no matter what week you harvest it, it will be an amazing body high all the way through. And as I said before, I have seen buds nearly double in size just because the grower delays harvest an extra 2 to 3 weeks. If you have the time, do alittle experimenting and let one of those plants go longer then the normal 8 to 9 weeks. You'll be in for a surprise...
