I just ordered FS Ice and the X-line's BB x WW from SeedBoutique yesterday and I am sooo looking forward to growing both of these strains.

I will definately post a grow log with pictures from start to finish. (got a new digi cam last week!)

I use 1, 1000 watt HPS light for flowering, Flouro's for cloning & vegging + mother.
I use DWC buckets with GH nutes lucus formula. (probably going to use a sterlite 18 gallon tub for 6 plants on these however, and 2, 4 gallon buckets to make it 8 plants total) Medium will be the usual hydroton in net pots. For cloning, I use a small bubbler with a heating pad underneath to warm the water to 78 degrees F.
Will be growing in my closet, using the entire space. 1/8th of is sealed off for my mother plant(s) and 8 plants will be hopefully consuming the rest. I will be training them by hand to allow for a bit more branching and bud site exposure. Almost like a scrog without the screen.

Odor removal is done with a carbon scrubber and lots of air freshner crap. I also have a fan blowing & sucking air through flexaduct into a homemade air cooled hood and out. (Though I'm contemplating rerouting the exhaust, need some answers on that though first)

Does anyone who has grown either of these strains have any advice? I'm used to growing indica strains and to be honest, I don't know exactly what either of these 2 are. I was looking for an above average yielder so I chose the BB x WW cross, I was also looking for something with a kick as far as potency goes so I chose Ice. I'm hoping I can grow both of these indoors with little problems. I do have vertical height if needed so if any do decide they want to stretch for the sky, I can accomodate to an extent.
I'm not only growing for myself, but I also supply a couple "sick" friends of mine. Without weed, they have a hard time eating due to their treatments. Munchies! Basically I'm looking for above average quality with above average quanity. I think I made the right choice and just looking for reassurance I guess :P Don't want to disappoint! Anyhow comments would be appreciated.

Well I'm impressed with seedboutiques shipping speed. 5 business days to midwest USA.

My grow will be starting as soon as I finish setting up shop. (Working 60 hours a week as a service technician for an unnamed cellular company kills your free time.)
So here they are. I only hope to do as half as good as Mr. Wags' recent FS grows. Thanks Gypsy & Female Seeds!

It's been awhile since I updated anything, so I'll start keeping up with it now that I've switch to 12/12.

Well, I have recently moved into a new home and am in a different closet.
It's 4x4x7 and I have 9 plants right now inside of it. 6 clones (3 per tub) and 2 ex-mothers in 4 gallon buckets each. The large plant on the far right is Ice, everything else is WWxBB.

They are on 11 days flowering right now and temps at canopy are kept at 77 or below. I am using a 1000 Watt HPS light with an air cooled hood. A 5200 BTU digital AC unit from walmart for cooling, and GH nutes with Diamond Nectar. (Anyone have a good replacement for diamond nectar? You have to use soooo much per bucket, it's almost not worth it. As it is now, The bottom will be empty after harvest)

I've recently LST'd the 2 larger plants and am wondering what this may do to my yield. I've never LST'd anything before.

I also have a veg chamber I built outta cardboard. I have 4 clones and plan on keeping 2. I believe I'll keep 1 WWxBB and 1 Ice.

Here are some pics though. The ones attached to the side of this post are about a week before I switched to 12/12. The ones in my next post are 5 days, and 11 days into flower.

Day 4 or 5 of flower. Plants starting to strecth a bit. LST hasn't been done yet. Just a few pre-flowers showing.

Clones getting bigger

The other tub of clones

Whole grow shot (pre-lst)

Air Conditioner! 5200 BTU, Digital - $98 walmart

RingoStar · 06-17-2006, 09:32 PM

The larger plants have been tied down a little bit for maximum budsite exposure. I did prune a large chunk of both larger plants when I switched to 12/12 to get rid of the lower branches/growth shoots that weren't getting any light.

Canopy shot

Stems are thick

Tops, taken with flash

Tops, no flash

Clones in tubs, getting bigger.

Tools of the trade

Veg Chamber with 4 clones. These will be mommies. I am keeping 1 ice and 1 wwxbb

RingoStar · 06-17-2006, 09:33 PM

Today I also raised the clone tubs up to make the canopy even. Shoulda did this sooner but oh ell. Other then showing mad pre-flowers, not much happening on the bud front. Day 11 of flower, and now we're current.
