trichs are 20% amber , 40% milky and 20% clear.

Ray... 40+20+20=80... what about the other 20%... did they dissappear. (sorry, i'm a math major... I had too).

Can't wait to see you pics. Want to see those girls man. You get to see them all the time... we just have to wait around dreaming, haha.

Hope things are going well with the solutions.

:peace:

Ah! Sorry Jig! (blame the Playwriting major) We meant 20% amber, 40% milky and 40% clear. We cut off a tiny part of the closest to finished bud so we'll give a full report of that soon. It smells better as it cures too. We opened the bag to smell it and bam! if we didn't know better, we'd say this stuff smells just like the reefer!

And pics are coming! We promise!

beautiful looking strain! it looks dusty by how smothered it is in resin

Hey, Ray,
bring us back some Lobsters.

crossouttheiis · Jun 25, 2009

you should be able to assemble the same stealth kit for much cheaper. Just look around here, you could save yourself a lot of money doing it yourself.

Actually the bud we cut is now totally dried and it looks like someone just sugar coated the whole thing.

So we've started harvesting some of the buds. The one cutting we took was ready, at 20% clear, 40% cloudy and 40% amber. Another couple are coming down this week, and the least developed plant (which has more massive buds than any of the other plants) is coming down probably within the next two weeks. A lot of the buds are falling over from their own weight. :bigjoint:

Sorry for the long awaited update you guys. But we're here on the last legs!

P.S. Look for more pics tonight from day 62 (yesterday).

jigfresh · Jul 7, 2009

Nice work ray fox. I'm having trimming flashbacks seeing that branch on the paper... ahhhhh. I love all the colors the leaves were changing... makes it seem like fall.

Glad to see the buds looking so nice. Time to start looking forward yet??? What's next, haha.

Roseman · Jul 7, 2009

YUMMY, YUMMY.

Ray Fox · Jul 7, 2009

Here are the pics as of yesterday. Beauties! :joint:

ray all looks sekC! delicious looking strain!

so you got two plants correct? are you still pushing the nutes and just chopping them based on the trichs (no flush?)?

check out my journal, chopped my indy last night

Thanks Motif! We actually have the three plants, and no, we're just finishing up a 2 week flush on the two ready plants and the third still has a little ways to go before chop. Its got fatter colas than the others :leaf:

.

Some guy (not Someguy, he's fine :blsmoke:

) on another one of our threads said that White Ice was a crappy strain but the colas on his plants were tiny. No wonder! Also the trich's are looking very nice.

We did a taste test of the ready plant and boy is it something. We smoked one bowl and waited twenty minutes, thought we were gonna pack another when WHAM! we were like "oh my God, we're already so high!" So this is homegrown. Well you know what Rollitup community? the shit's wonderful. :bigjoint:

There's still a little ways to go however, hope you all will stay with us for it.

Don't listen to the haters ray... your white ice would blow theirs out of the water. Stuff looks real tasty from the pics you put up. Stuff souds stellar too:
WHITE ICE DESCRIPTION

Isn't it funny about packing a second bowl. When I was starting out smoking my harvest I would hit it, and think about it real hard, like what exactly was I feeling... only when I thoght I should pack another did I realize how absolutely smashed I was.

Props to you and your partner there ray fox. Really nice job.... and don't worry your fans aren't going anywhere.... we want to see the fairy tale ending to your first grow.

Thanks so much for the love Jig! :joint:

When we picked our strain, all we had to go by was the description from Sensi Seeds (as posted by Jig above)

So now to compare the harvest to the description:

"A three-way hybrid of Northern Lights, Dutch Skunk and an original Afghani hash plant cultivar, White Ice is a super-thick, fast-flowering, Indica-dominant cannabis strain. "

So far sounds okay, but then again, what does "fast-flowering" mean. :roll:

Come on.

"This seed variety is named mainly for the awesome frosting of sticky silver resin glands that cover her solid buds; some growers working with the strain also refer to her as White I.C.E. - Indica Crystal Extreme."

Judging by other strains, we're not exactly sure about the description "Indica Crystal Extreme", but the girls sure do look very frosty.

"When flowering, females could be mistaken for bonsai Christmas trees covered with sparkling decorative snow. "

Huh, this part is actually true.

"Yield is medium-to-high; the 'frozen solid' density of White Ice buds allows a good harvest even from smaller plants."

The yeild doesn't look to be the 300 we wanted (which is an estimate we can now look back on and laugh about), as first time growers, we're now just hoping for 100 grs, but as we've been told, we'll see. Actually there is something peculiar about the dried buds we harvested. They're completely rock solid, er should we say, "frozen solid". Basically as though they're stuck in shells of amber crystals. The cutting we took is also about 7 grs alone, so that sort of helps to guestimate the total dry weight.

"Her flavour is strong, sweet-pungent and oily, with heavy, expansive smoke. Her effect is stronger still, stoney and physical, yet not stupefying. As the name suggests, White Ice is the ideal smoke for chilling out!"

So far, this seems to be an alright description. The smell is really not pungent unless holding the bud directly under your nose, but it gets stronger every day from curing. There is a strong, "stoney" effect, but one would hope so. And lastly, all weed should be for chilling out!

So despite a 3 week flush we added some more bloom nutes to fatten the girls up some more. Look for pics most likely tonight. :weed:

Also we got a brand new designer piece to accompany the newly harvested goodies. It's SICK!!

jigfresh · Jul 13, 2009

If you mean that you have flushed for 3 weeks now... and you strated them again with bloom nutes... I think that isn't good.

Not sure but I remember reading that you shouldn't stop then start nutrients, you might want to check on that. I'm not sure why it was bad... maybe it can burn, or it might send them strange signals... don't know.

Just wanted to give you the heads up buddy. :bigjoint:

We were nervous about adding nutes like that too, but actually all the colas sprouted larger growths. We did another no nute watering today and we harvested most of our second plant. Pics soon!

Here's the pics! The drying set up is a little ghetto yes, but its the only room with a ceiling fan. And check out the pic of the buds we harvested, they all come from one main giant branch. Delicious!

Roseman · Jul 14, 2009

Hey, Ray,

Ray Fox · Jul 17, 2009

Isn't Roseman just the best? :bigjoint:

So a couple updates, 1) after watering the plants with nutes post 3 week flush they appear to be really loving the extra boost so, after one no nute watering, we did a 6 gallon refill of micro nutes and half a packet of bloom nutes. So far the girls are getting larger since adding nutes, new growing technique?

2) Also, they're in 15/9 since about a week ago.

3) And finally we chopped the whole first plant in the back. The wet weight was about 60 g's which dried down to about 24 grams total dry weight. Not bad for one plant on a first time, but we're looking forward to the other two larger plants a lot more since their colas have been significantly larger than those of the first plant's.

3.5) One last thing, as the bud cures each day we're finding it to be more and more potent. Obviously. But it makes for a fun new surprise every day!
