The Breeding Programme.

ICE MAGIC - B52/ICE/WIDOWSKUNK hybrid.

What would be ideal, is to produce a plant that has the B52's size and fast flowering, the colouration and giggly high of the WidowSkunk, rounding off with the potency of the Ice. Have found in the past that all of these strains, when they have been grown and flowered outdoors, take on a very strong purple colouration. The cross will, as always, be a drawn out process, probably over 5-6 grows. It is important to take your time and realistically set your breeding goals before you start your grow. I may not even get close to achieveing the goal within maybe 3 or 4 grows, but may get there after 1!?!?

MEPHISTO MADNESS - Ice Magic/ Silver Deluxe

The "Ice Magic" as previously mentioned, will be the Indica contributor to the strain. By this I am really only looking for at most about 30% indica. The "Silver Deluxe" strain is a very Sativa dominant strain (at least 80%). Ideally, with the "Mephisto Madness", the potency and strength of the Silver Deluxe will be complimented by the colouration, improved grow speed and maturity of the "Ice Magic". Probably acheivable after 4 crosses.

KANDY STAR - SkunkBubble/ Blueberry

A fairly even 50/50 Indica-Sativa cross. Keeping the taste and potency of the Skunkbubble and introducing another strong flavour in the Blueberry, can only be a good thing!!!

CHEESY GOLD - Cheese/Ventura Gold

60/40% Indica/Sativa cross. Trying to get a shorter stout plant with short flowering period. As well, keeping the strength and aroma of the cheese coupled with similar properties from the Ventura Gold.


And that is the beauty of breeding.

You may stumble across something so special, it didn't even rate on your "goal strain" target with the varieties used. Such a great hobby!!!!

Have lost 1 of the B52 plants and the yet to sprout Blueberry Jam seed has been lost as well. Still, you get that............

Looking good and sorry to hear about the loss. What are you using for lights? grow medium? and space? I will be keeping up with this one +rep
 
Bud08,

Currently in the grow cupboard it is a 250Watt HPS, all in organic soil mix. Usual inbuilt cupboard space area. Thanks for the rep.
 
Chunky Cheese Plant No.1 day 7

Am excited to see this strain grow. Have been hearing nothing but good things everywhere about this variety. Will be growing this strain indoors and outdoors.
