Sorry, I do this to everyone growing Nirvana ICE.

Here's my Nirvana ICE from my very first grow. And yes, that is the size of a football.

Looking good billy. the Ice cuttings that I took are doing better now. I put them on 24/0 Lighting. I have my 26w 2 foot 6500k florescent light going 24/0 and I turn on my 70w MH lamp when I wake up and turn it off when I go to sleep so its on about 12/12

Thats good theyre doing good. No loss is always good. :) wish I would have started these sooner but with all my set backs it was hard. And if I would have they probably would've died. Oh well, I've got three plus my little clones :)

Yea its nice. I might have gotten 2 males maybe 3 males out of 17 BC Ice seeds. Not to bad tbh. I've read reviews where people get pretty much the same amount of males from the same amount of seeds.

I reordered BC Ice because it was a huge hit and miss the first time I wasn't really happy about it but I also ordered BC Skunk. Hopefully my order goes through and gets here before Christmas. Its gonna be my little Christmas present to my self not including the new lens that I bought 2 months ago since I needed a better one. =)

Next year I will have to finish building my grow cabs and will start having more fun. I still have some stuff I need to buy for my setup though but I wanna start getting smoke from it so I will make money back from it. I have resorted to using that table thing, packing take, cereal boxes to turn it into a flowering area.

Cost
Cereal boxes = $0 since I have a bowl in the morning.
Packing Tape = $3 for a 6 pack roll.



I found out a few days ago that the strains my friend has given me to clone for him is biker gang weed. I still has a small thing of seeds that he has gotten over the years and come to think of it I might have some seeds that he gave me or got from some good weed he smoked.

Yeah I am looking forward to getting my full moon order placed. But it's a sativa so it'll take an extra month or two. On the plus side nirvanas doing a special so with every order you get a 10 pack of mixed seeds free. So sometime this month I'll be putting an order in.

I added more to my last post so re-read it.

That is cool. The seed bank that I am getting mine from I could order a 25 pack for $75 witch isn't back but I wanted BC Ice strain back as seeds and a new strain. I will be doing a bunch of Feminized seed making of each strain witch will be very nice to have for breading reasons and such. I hope the male that I have left from my first pack of BC Ice will live and will be able to produce pollen that I can collect.

Yeah he'll e able to do so. Just gotta get it then throw him out. Also before going into the room with the ladies make sure your cleaned up, no need spreading his love in places you don't want it

Well I wanna keep the male alive. I wanna clone him and collect pollen so I can use it for breeding reasons. I also told my friend that I will take some cuttings from the female clones that he gave me from the ones I rooted for him and I will make a feminized batch and give him some seeds so that he doesn't have to worry about losing the strain if some thing happens.

I just posted an update in my journal. November 25th.

Sounds like a great plan there Tool :-) Especially the part of cloning him. I am amazed at all of the genetics that have transpired since the 70's (That's when I hung my roach clip until MMJ was needed this year) :-)

Hat's off to all of those that were, and still using genetics to making some killer weed :-)

Happy Holiday Trails !!

Yeah man, it's a good strain to say the least especially for the noobs! :) great smelling plant and the taste is superb. Wish I had that amount as we speak. :) hopefully with these 3 new ones I'll get 11 off them each. I'd be a happy camper. Lol

Yes, even as a mistake prone noob, it yielded big for me.

I really miss that smoke, too. Since then I've become strictly an OG Kush man, but if I could wish for any bud to magically appear so I could smoke it again, it would be that iCe I grew first time around. It was a soaring high with great euphoric feelings. Heaven in the vape. Still one of my faves.

I Still haven't vaped. :) want to tho.
The new little ones I believe are getting too cold art night so I've got to run my little heater in their room. Just put a shirt folded under their reservoir so we shall see what happens.

On another note, just started germinating 6 more beans. All of ice. Thinking about doing a few 2 liter bottle grows just for shits n giggles.

Have you thought of scrogging? I shudder to thing what kind of monster yield you could get if you scrogged ICE.

I wish I had a good strong ICE clone or seed... I would def yield her out under a screen.

edit:
IMO, Ice is great any way you consume it, but that stuff was made for vaping. The slow-roasted herbal taste it produces is like none other. The indica/sativa ratio in ICE is still unclear to me. I would say the high tends more towards sativa, but there are elements about the plant structure that are indica.
