thanks brother, kinda crazy to think i still have about a month to go and these girls just keep getting bigger, taller and fuller. compared to my other runs of ice, these ones are definitely bigger than my first grow and i think without a doubt that it is because of the lucas formula.

ill get some good shots tonight when i turn the lights out so we dont have to see all that yellow light. :)

little update:

Got all (well most) of the things i need to make my filter, all thats left is a 4 inch PVC tube/pipe. (diameter). Ill have that running real soon. The wives parents are driving up from cali at the end of this month which happens to be around my first harvest of ICE #1 and #2 (left plant and middle plant) and ICE #3 is just a day or two shy of being a full 3 weeks behind. Then my other littler (in hydro) ICE plants are getting hairy as hell so theyve got a few months journey ahead of them. the others in 2 and 3 liter bottles are doing awesome. starting to really pick up in growth. Im sick as a dog today and have so much to do. :( blehg... see ya soon. ill have pics today when im feeling up to it. :peace:

well i went to snap a few pictures and my camera died upon the first "click."
So ill share some info instead. My little "good dirt" had some weird looking growth going on and it turns out theyre nut sacks.
So i say weird because ive never once had a male until now which means nirvanas odds at getting a female are much greater
than what people say and think (also, this little guy ISNT to my knowledge a nirvana seed) So what turns out to be a male and looks similar to ruderalis is actually an auto flowering strain of some sort.
he is only 6 inches tall at the very tallest and the top portion of the main cola is all ball sacks. none were there yesterday at lights off. so i think ill be collecting pollen in a few weeks and
impregnating one or two buds on my ICE #3 plant. since shes 3 weeks behind the other thatll work perfectly. imagine an auto flowering ICE plant!? i can call it "Automatic ICE machine." :)
also my other 3 in the bottles are all female for a total of 8 ladies at various stages...

Hey Bro :-)

Sounds like we have the same camera, and that it works only when it wants too :-)

That sounds weird that you have a "male of sorts". It could be a part of the auto-flowering mix as well, for I too have a "mutant" (actually (3) of them). I have done some research and found that they are ok, and in matter of fact, these mutants produce some great herb. They are different from anything that I have ever seen, having 3 leaves, some one leaf, and then the usual 5 that are more common in marijuana plants. The texture of the leaves are more dry and brittle, but not crumbly like one would expect. I am just wondering aloud if yours is some sort of "mutant" as well.

I wanted to get some pictures of my three mutants, plus the others that I have just transplanted on the 8th of February, but my camera is on the fritz for the time being. Hope all is well on your side of the coin, as they are slowly getting better on this side. I should be back up and running as usual later this week, and if everything goes as planned, doing my first harvest on the 16th through 18th of this month. Yup !! That time already !!

Take care my friend, and stay in touch. Love ya bro "=_
