haha a mini sea of green indeed!! wow she is so bushy man is it like 90% indica or something?
the 4 colas already look like there at the same canopy level awesome!

yeah shes virtually flat on top man and only around 10cm or so high and around 30cm wide
i have every branch on her growing sideways rather than up
if i remember right i read somewhere it was something like 80/20 indica sativa
it did have 2 huge leaves on it but they died from the cal/mag def well atleast thats what i treated for and seems to have worked

here is a write up from a seed bank:
Ice Kush from Advanced Seeds is a voluptuous cross between a strong Kush strain and a specially selected African Sativa. Like the strong Indicas, this Cannabis variety produces typical Indica buds but on a larger scale than most making it appealing to commercial grows due to its slight Sativa influence. Taking from its Indica genetics, it flowers fairly quickly and has an early harvest outdoors as well at the end of September. Being mildew resistant with large leaves and thick buds, the grower does not have to worry about much and can focus on the good resin production and the citrusy strawberry aroma.

she's gonna look like several plants rather than 1 soon lol
strawberry aroma huh yummy is it going to taste like it? sounds like it's going to be really good to smoke, these fruity strains have drawn me in, im ordering sweet deep grapefruit, mango and pineapple chunk this week, 1 single female seed of each strain and which ever i like the most i'll stick with as far as fruity strains go

that looks sick (awesome sick)

my internets slow n cbf loading the first page, but how old is it now??? when do u plan on flowering???

yeah from the seed review the strain sounds very yummy but i cant find anything on ice kush apart from whats written on seed banks still now grow reports or nuttin so i guess atleast i know ive got a strain that no1 else has here in aus lol

Heres a few more pics with a couple close up shots of the centre looks shit hot lol
also had two tie down to more branches today

how do you organize your pics like that so you can add texts inbetween them
sounds like you got a good relationship with the babysitter lol
what are you using to tie down the branches, they look like rubber bands

rubber bands and twist ties at the moment but the bands dont like the light so im proply gunna cut up some old stockings and use them

Hi all
cant upload any more photos until fri im almost capped goto stop downloading porn um i mean playing games online

things are looking ok shes getting real bushy still managing to keep her height down

looks like i may have some nute build up in the pot i noticed it wasnt draining probly when i last watered and the new growth was like a yellowing lime colour instead of the usual rich green so i pulled the pot out start to put a couple more holes in it and what ever was bloking it up must have unbloked cause while i was piss farting around with it a heap of water just started puring out the bottom so i guess blockage is fixed and we got a few more holes now to

flushed her with ph water no nutes
the water coming out was loaded with nutes was reading 700ppm so i gave her another flush and now have her on straight ph water with a lil oxy-plus after 1 water and letting the plant drain and return to reservoir the ppm went upto 150ppm so im hoping that means i got it more or less sorted

i will leave it another day or two then i will get the water back up to 800ppm
i go away for a week on sat so hopefully things will start swinging back to norm b4 i go so the babysitter wont have much to worry bout cept topping the res
after i get back i will most likely switch her over to flower and let the bud porn begin

hahaha! try to go easy on the porn, just pay the babysitter abit extra next-time
did you get my last pm? my internet stuffed up right when i had sent it
lucky you found that blockage before you left, have fun in qld

yeah man i would hate to go away and come back to a dead plant

yeah i got ya message

Hi all
icky is recovering well from her nute od thank god i caught it early
im off to surfers in about 10 hrs so no updates until i get back
here is some pics to get yas by

Hey, remind me again if youve already mentioned but what light are you using (now and for flower). Your plant looks great but it seems like it could be taking off a lot faster.

plant looks real happy and should yield alot. love ur setup, did you build the bucket urself? also are those rubberbands? genious.
