    Hi there :wave:

    How old is your plant? How high are you expecting it to grow?

    Just ordered myself some fem Ice.

    I've got loads of questions for you, if you don't mind:D

    Looks great.
    Better get a microscope to see exactly when ready to harvest.

    I used a 125 watt envirolite 6400k for vegetative growth for 36 days with 18 hours light a day, i used canna coco and canna nutrients as the growing medium.
    I never trimmed or topped,
    then went to a 125 watt envirolite 2700k and only trimmed before the pic at 56 days of flowering at 12/12 light/dark, i have super rflective film from my work, which produces polyester film funnilly enough and it owns the mylar brand (ha ha) which aint as good as this stuff.

    i have a microscope and have been told to wait till the glass looking stuff turns brown then chop the top but leave the smaller buds to keep growing.

    hope that answered ure questions any advice or tips would be great as i also have another female ice plant ready for 12/12 witch i topped and trimmed through growing (just experimenting with methods)

    i also have skywalker and mazar feminized seeds i got from a friend who no longer
    needs them any advice on them would be great too

    have included pic of my 2nd ice ice at 30 days with the super reflective film, (ignore cutting stuck in soil was my mate fucking around, trying to tell me it would grow by just sticking it in soil, doh, didnt work)

    thanks

    Your grow looks fantastic. Can I get hold of the reflective film? What's it called?
    :D

    i stole it from my work its for wrapping specialist film so that no light gets to it, so thats why its super reflective, dont know what its called but it will be very expensive stuff, i will try and find out ok.

    It might be stuff called Foilar.
    It is very expensive and better than mylar.

    hi ,do u use a proper reflector with that enviro or do u just hang it above ,like in the pic ........the reason i ask is coz im still undecided wether or not to bother buying the reflector ,if it still works ok without one then i wont bother buying one .( nice plants btw )

    I dont use a reflecter due to size constraints, but i wold have if i had the room.

    :wave: Hi there

    Does this look like ICE to you. This is what I am growing. It came from a bag of mix.

    Cheers:D

    :wave: hi there

    Opinion would be appreciated.
    Came from a bag of mix.

    Using the same lighting set up, but with sheld and balast bulb. Cost me £58 incl P/P from UK ebay.

    Hey man those look absolutely beautiful. What an awesome cola that will be to show your buddies...

    I myself just switched to flowering today after about 7 weeks of vegetative. VERY EXCITED!

    Yeah, very nice cola. I love that blue back drop. And you kept them green all the way through. Congrats.
