thanks man....not to take over the thread or anything but i just have a quick question....

I have two 5 1/2 feet alaskan ice plants and they have been flowering for 14 days...

I see lots of little things with hairs comming out some that dont have hairs....but they are still growing 2 inches a day and im running out of hight room.....

Also I think there called pisels are what looks like drying out and curling up...?

My question is when will i see actual buds forming? It doesnt look like anything more then one tiny hair on each little pod. What should I do with the hight?

ok..the plants with white hairs are females(kep those)chop the males or get rid of them.Thet can triple in size when thrown into flower. so you want to compinsate with the room that you got when to start flowering!
You should know b4 you grow!you would not have that prob! i dont know avout toppin them while they in flower but bend em or something.If there is a will theres a way!

And they grew to big to fast they are only 3 months old and I got 18 cuttings off them!! but you really think I should bend them? I probaly only have 4 inches to go!! Its so bad! I woke up this morning and it was smushed up agianst the light...thank god the light was off!

Bro nice thats all i have to say about that.
I have a feeling they are going to be monsters. U can always tie strings on them and gently pull them away from the light towards a close wall with tacks to compensate for that. but sounds like ur going to end up topping ur moms before it over. ive done this as well.
Those hairs are called pistils bro. They are very nice indeed.

Purp,

These taxes have been around forever. This was created back in the days of prohibition. Just another way for the government to control Marijuana was the only reason.

When growing Alaskan Ice have any of you pinched out/topped the plant? Or is this a single cola plant that needs leaving alone? Any other advice gratefully received, I am using House & garden nutes with an Autopot system/air bubbler 2x 600w HPS I have used Coco before but I am using a mix of clay pebbles, vermiculite, coco. Had my money nicked sending it to Greenhouse but they sent me the seeds with apologies for the dodgy postman for free!! Can't get any advice from them, plants a month old and so far the best I've ever grown (grown on an off since the 80's, but 5 yeras solid now). Have grown Chronic, White Widow, Snow White, Jacky White, Cheese, a few unknown clones and others but our favourite so far is definately MK Ultra. Any advice gratefully received, will be posting pictures soon. Happy New Year.

Dude...I'm growing Alaskin Ice and I started it one month ago. The damn thing is barely 2 inches high. It's the slowest plant ever! Can anyone give tips? I'm using CFL's 24/7. The plant is healthy just very very small/frail and just like the other people on here, the shell stuck to my plant, too and I had to remove it. This plant is hella slow yo.
