Haha, so this is where it gets wierd....... I got Ice, and Crystal, and they were both germinating on each side of a plate, with a divider in the middle. This was a long time ago. Anyways, I picked up the plate, and ONE seed rolled around, and I put it on what I thought was the right group of seeds. I am fairly confident that it is an Ice, because I flowered out Crystal, and it seemed nothing like this. Anyways, it had more in common with Ice, but always looked and smelled a little different....more purples when cold, SUPER trichome covered, and lots of leaf. Ice always was very grapey and sweet, while this Ice Anomaly was more skunky and almost burned your nose hairs it was so pungent. The smoke is out of this world, and you can see some buds on some of my early threads. I think it says "beautiful Ice plant" to start the thread.
So here is where it gets more strange....I saw the first one from seed, had already started flowering it's clone before I realized how kick ass it was. Well no worries, because I had 2 clones of that, right? WRONG!!!!! Both clones died, and so I thought it was lost forever, unless I could reveg it or something....
Well, I told you blueberry widow had some issues, but it is super kick ass, right? Well, during this grow, Blueberry Widow self seeded and threw off some pollen (my first go around with this type of Blueberry Widow being unstable). The Ice Anomaly ended up having a few seeds, not very many. I think 3-5 seeds. And no one got this strain except myself and my patients. So, just in the hopes that I could recreate Ice Anomaly, I put those seeds in ground, and ONE out of the 3 phenos I got has all the resin production and smell of the Ice Anomaly, and seems to have the larger bud structure and yield of the Blueberry Widow. I have to smoke it to make sure, but I think this is a pretty accurate description of what went on.
This pheno has been very stable so far, no signs of stress, even. Honestly, this might be something like you read about the OG Kush coming from chemdog, and that chemdog really came from bagseed from a bag bought at a Grateful Dead show. Sometimes, if things are good, you may not have to know where it came from, just where to get a cutting.....haha. And I have a HUGE mama ready to give plenty of babies....And ask the Rev, I protect my genetics! I do not just give out clones willy nilly. And you will never see these in any co-ops. This may be my start to breeding with this lady. I will have to ask the Rev if this would be prudent.
Bet you did not plan on an answer that long, huh? haha
