Thanks for the comments guys,

I love my grows too just wish I had more space, I'd love the room to grow 9 plants to full size under bigger LEDs, I will eventually but need to move from this house would love a place with a basement.

Going to give it another water today and then leave to almost dry out then put in darkness for 48hrs.

All the best guys,

Toaor

Update:

Just gave her a drink of plain old tap water at 6.9pH, she can drink away till tomorrow night and then she's going into darkness for 48 hours.

I had another few buds off yesterday smoking them today, nice even though they were dried super quick on radiator in envelope and then a quick blast in the microwave for 10-20 seconds, not harsh or green tasting at all, which is nice.

Have a great weekend guys,

Toaor

Day 130, Sunday - Yes you read it right day one f***ing hundred and thirty !!!!!!!!!!!!!

I finally took the last Ice Dream out of tent yesterday around 5pm, having let her drink plain old tap water for two days and she is now in darkness up in the loft inside cardboard wardrobe box, where she will stay until tomorrow night or maybe Wed morning when she will get the chop and be put to drying.

This is the first time I've tried the 48-72 hours of darkness trick so it'll be interesting to see if it makes any difference, I'm really, really looking forward to smoking her after sooooo long.

I have had buds off her for the last week or so and she's been nice getting stronger with each lot of buds I had off.

I now just have two White Rhino x Skunk#1 left in tent one with four main colas all about same height the other is my three leaf clone, which is a bit shorter but has more main stems, she's also a week behind in flowering terms.

Also, now just waiting for my Auto Bomb and Big Bang Autos I ordered to turn up plus I'm hoping I've been sent some test seeds too but maybe not as I ordered Auto Bomb anyway. I also get 3 free Big Bang Feminsed Photoperiod seeds, they'll be going out guerilla style along with the 7 Ice Dream seeds I put in germination cubes last night after giving overnight soak in plain tap water.

I'll do new journals for all my grows.

That's it for now.

Thanks for that almost final update, i'm sure she will makeyou happy,i'm really glad and surprised by the ice dream as i had heard she wasn't that good, maybe they have changed the "formula" since the first test seed came in the game bu in the end for myself it is one of the strongest weeds i've grown :nyam: Don't i find got lucky with the phenotypes, but it is what it is ^^

I hope yours will make you as happy as me ;) But after 130 days of flowering i'm sure she will have her best taste for you, i hope lol ;)

Have a good cutting keep us updated with pics ;)

Day 132 Harvest Festival, lol

Yes I finally cut her down, top cola weighs 27gms and have about the same in lower buds so all up about 3oz from the plant in total, as I already had buds off for last two weeks.

She is now drying in cardboard box with two Silica Gel bags in with it to draw out the moisture.

Final smoke report to follow in few days but here's the last pics.

Lovely looking bud dude! mmm it is a ice dream isn't it hehe

I'm going to try that Silica gel bag trick, i guess it does work if not you wouldn't be using it hehe how much of an improvement is it to drying times? or is this the first time of you using them?

If there hasn't bin already i will probably try 1 box with and 1 box without the silica see how much difference there is. in the name of science!

Well enjoy the dry and do try to cure hehe and most of all enjoy the smoke :D

Peace

Thanks guys,

The Silica bags definitely work but you have to remember to take them out of box once per day and dry them out on radiator or oven, otherwise they get soaked in moisture and the buds will start to rot.

I have dried in 3 days using Silica in box in room at around 22c, then give 5-10 seconds in microwave let rest for a few minutes and smoke away, lol.

Yes would be good to experiment and see the difference, I reckon it take a 1/3 to 1/2 off drying times and is smooth smoke not harsh and green.

Best wishes,

Toaor

Final Report:

The Ice Dream was an enjoyable smoke not too heavy and a nice all round smoke, not much flavour but nice effect, all up got about 2 Oz off the last plant.

That's it for this grow journal, join me on my others Auto Bomb, Big Bang Auto, Ice Dream Regular and Big Bang Regular. I also have from Royal Queen Creamatic, NL and Haze Autos all starting soon and going outdoors.

Peace y'ole,

Toaor
