Just reading up on lowryder. Sounds like quite a stunning plant in its own right. Auto flower and no veg. Crazy.
My question is do you have to put this plant into 12/12 or does it just start flowering....?
leroy
a little info for you m8,

So what is auto-flowering? Well, Lowryder's auto-flowering characteristic grants it the ability to completely eliminate the need for reduction of day-light hours; in turn, eliminating the need for a timer. It will grow consistently well and finish under 24 hours of light - from sprouting to harvest - in eight weeks, although you can achieve similar results with 18 hours of light per day; if you like to give your room time to cool down, for example. The point is, with Lowryder, there is no need for a change in the light period to induce flowering, nor is it necessary to have separate vegetative and flowering rooms!

hope this helps

ps. not many people grow them cos they're not rated much,yeild/quality, why spend £25-30 on them when you can get much better seeds for the same price.
good starter plant though i suppose unsure.gif

Like leroy said brilliant for the beginner. and the yield all depends on what grow conditions you use i.e. greehouse, windowsill or lights and also the light cycles wink.gif

Hi Bludemon, i'm doing lowryder#1 along with my main grow, they're only just over a week old, the good thing about doing a strain like lowryder along with another strain is that when your about half way through the main grow the lowryders will be ready to smoke, i've never tried lowryder before so it's gonna be interesting to see how they taste/smoke smoke.gif
bowcon
well ive grown lr and lr#2 and i cant fault them for begginers, quick crop and i think a rather nice stone.

as bazza said grow them along side other plants and ull be smoking the LR while the others arre still growing.

Hi mate

Theres a guy called ghostsmoker who grew lr2 and wrote a great diary, His plant yeild a fair amount to, I tryed to post the link but the server will not have it at the mo.

I'm growing lr2 at the mo and they are 24 days in and just starting to show female pre-flowers, grown under 18/6 with 125w blue cfl & 125w red cfl, starting to stink a bit as well unsure.gif

All the best

i think some people choose to spend £30 quid on them cos you can start them off on window or wherever and then go and place them in lots of random sunny south facing places near where you live. they only grow small and are very easily hidden.

my mate put a fair few of em in between tomato's in his greenhouse and as a passerbye/neighbour or whatever you would of never ever guessed they were there. also being autoflowering they can be put out in middle of summer timed so when they are budding our uk weather will be at its best russian.gif lol.gif as if!! rather than wiv a normall outdoor plants this year for example some are only just showing sex and now will have the less promising tail end of the summer weather to beat down on them buds. also i see alot of people worry and suffer with mould and generall damp probs come sept/oct. but if timed right you ryders will be getting 6 weeks of june/july top notch sunshine on there little backs.

generlly though not amazing buds but good to have a little play with

Totally agree with windowsilllowryder

Low ryders are always getting dissed BUT tried some LR2 anway for 1st grow ... outside about oz per plant grown in compost with biobizz grow & bloom in cheap plastic greenhouse. Only problem I got was a bit of mould near the end but managed to cut off & save plants anway.

Very easy plant to please best plants started & finished in 10 Litre pots.

Been over to Dam & tried some cup winners last week & friends think LR2 is better (couldnt see it myself)....

If I had a grow room/lights etc I wouldn't bother with L/Rs, as there are much better, cheaper strains out there.
However, for a quick, easy outdoor/greenhouse/windowsill grow, they're great.

current mini greenhouse grow.
