I'm hoping to have a set of pretty healthy plants like that for my next grow. Starting in a few weeks .
daihashi, it's good to see you, my friend. This is really only my 1st grow, even though I had tried a quick grow back in college - before the advent of the internet when I had no access to such a large cache of information and experienced growers as are available on this great board! I have not done all too much, as you will see from reading above to have MIQ be such a beautiful lady. She is a hardy strain - Mighty Freeze, which I will give some background and information on below. Good luck with your next grow, and I look forward to following your next log!

The growth is very lowrider-esque and I wouldn't put it far from logic that there may be some earlygirl and/or lowrider genetics somewhere in there. Either way, she is a beauty of a girl, and looks very happy. Fantastic job on taking care of her and all the work you've put into her to allow her to thrive. I have no real doubt that she will be quite powerful and a pleasure to partake! Best of luck as she continues to grow, and I look forward to tracking her progress and any others you begin to log.

~Cheers!

D9, I appreciate your insight, as always - from your thread and replies herein, I gather you have quite the educational background, as well as experience in growing. I thank you for your interest in my grow, as well as for allowing me to pick your brain from time to time. You are very kind, and I look forward to reviewing your and Stinky's dialogue after a few puffs, as it really blows my mind!

Your comments led me to do some research on Mighty Freeze, and below is what I have learned of the strain. Maybe such information will lead to others providing me even more insight?


Out of curiosity, and since not many folks had heard of a "Mighty Freeze" strain, I used one of the most powerful tools known to man, "Google," to see what I could discover about it. I don't know if anyone following my grow log is interested in what I discovered, but for posterity's sake I thought I would include this information.

Mighty Freeze is a cross between Mighty Mite and Friesland. I also discovered it is an autoflowering strain. All of such information was discovered on other boards through the logs and information from fellow growers. I also read briefly that someone else had experienced a Mighty Freeze crop being stunted. Both of these bits of information shed some light on my experience in my first grow. I still don't quite understand why she is stunted, and I had attributed the early flowering partially to an autoflowering possibility; but, it's now nice to know that indeed she is an autoflowerer.

In the end, it does appear my lil' lady is a Mighty Freeze, and so she shall retain her nickname of the Mini Ice Queen or MIQ. I need to get better at the naming stuff, eh?

I'll update tomorrow with some pictures. I began lst'ing her Tuesday late afternoon, and her bottom leaves have already begun reaching for the sun. I hope it will help her to become more robust since her growth was stunted.

I hope all is well with everyone. Aloha
