I don’t know what to expect. They chose the white ice to shorten the plant, make it more sturdy and to compact the buds tighter. The project started in May of last year and we just got seeds this past week. The breeder says the taste which is what I loved about my original Durban is over the top and the buzz is beautiful.
When I was first gifted the landrace Durban I had no idea what I was in for in an eight foot tent. I actually bent that plant in half three times! When I harvested her we measured the limb folds, that monster was fourteen feet in total! She was a true one hundred percent sativa, unlike the cross bred that Rosenthal had called an American Durban. Her downfall? Wispy buds and sheer size.
Hopefully with this cross we have her shortened and have tightened up the flower.
Here is the info on that White Ice:
White Ice is a three-way mix of
Northern Lights, Dutch Skunk, plus a special
Afghani cultivar that provides stoney physical effects. With nuggets that glitter with silver resin, some growers call this White I.C.E. As in “Indica Crystal Extreme” because of the abundance of trichomes that tend to be produced over its fast growing cycle of 45 to 55 days.
Lets grow it!
