easy ryder @ 8 weeks & lowryder 2 not flowering

[silouan]

had these going for about 8 weeks now. i am thinking maybe 2-3 more.

i also have three lowryder 2 going. they are huge and at 8 weeks are still not flowering. one has started to shoot a few hairs out. any chance that these are auto with a longer veg cycle or should i finish up the easy ryders and then throw the lr2 on 12/12?

ffof, ff nutes

the easy ryder looks good, ghow big? whats up with the lr? i am getting ready to start some lr2 and lr2 x ak47. i have seen the lr2 do this a few times(after i got my seeds) are yours feminized? mine are, the other grows i read about were regular seeds

 

[silouan]

my lr2s are fem. yeah, i have read about it as well. i am not sure if the 12/12 is even a viable option given the short span of auto plants. but then, maybe i got a pheno (3 phenos) without the auto trait?

the easy ryders got big - about 16-24"

let us know how the easyryder smokes. you might go ahead with 12/12. 8 weeks of veg is more than enough.

 

[silouan]

yeah, but i think i will wait another 3 weeks which will put some other plants i have ready for the 12/12 as well. they are all in one grow tent.

the others are great white shark, red diesel, and lemon skunk

this is easy rider 5 weeks in on 12/12 since second week, i would wait till ya others finish first then if lr2 still havent kicked in proper then drop to 12/12 it dont hurt em jus makes a slightly longer flowering period

 

[silouan]

that is my plan. my only concern is that it will leave me with 8 plants flowering in a 4'x4' tent (i was shooting for five). too bad there have been so many problems with this lr2 strain. i have grown them out before without any problems, but this batch is suffering from some genetic/breeding error.

attached is a photo of the tent holding the lr2. they are the three biggest plants in the back right corner. i had no idea that they could get so tall! my others stayed nice and short.

 

[sweetsmoker]

lol fck me they gonnabe big wen finished, i see wat u mean about room, sure they will be ok, jus try and move em around daily in there so they get an even amount of light. its all good though they look sweet

 

[silouan]

i just found out the source of the problem that some people have had with the lr2. apparently there was a mix up from the joint doctor with the seeds. i dont know what the genetic is, but would love to find out!

 

[wytecaztle]

I read your suppose to flower on 20/4 the whole way thru maybe thats why your not flowering.....dunno go to attitude seedbank and see also let me know how the yield is I want to buy some of the easy ryder and the low ryder 2 x ak 47.

 

[sweetsmoker]

easyryder is ak x lr2 m8, and i have flowered loads of auto on 12/12 and 18/6 before , if anything it would be a case od lowering the daylight hours not increasing them, do ya research b4 advising peeps not avvin a go but i had bad advise before and it fucks up ya grow , pisses u off, also the average yield depends on ya lighting etc, i flower under 400w hps and usually take close to the oz, then i have experrienced all sorts of funny busines wit autos, like my current grw i have 1 that is 2 1/2 ft tall and 2 that are 9 " lol the phenos are still not reliable but always a nice smoke. worth a go seed to harvest 10 weeks.

 

[silouan]

thanks sweetsmoker. you are pulling an oz off the autos? is that dry or just trimmed?

 

[sweetsmoker]

thats dry mate! its always close to the oz i.e 3 oz outta 4 plants last time round. this time i reckon my best may well pull over an oz. but it only compensates for the two titchy 1s which i reckon a q each plant,lol never mind, wouldnt it be nice to clone the gd uns? check ou the auto thread will post a link in here 4 ya . there are some lovely results in there. gd luck

i wonder wat the mix up is wit the lr2 maybe u gt some santa maria or summit instead , i believe thats wat they cross wit the ruderalis

 

[odinfolk]

Awesome, man. After this current grow I will be growing my feminized lowryder 2 seeds. Do you have any pics of your lr2 grow?

no mate i always delete after posting will take new of my curent easyrider tomoz if u want though, its always worth having at least 1 grow wit autos, just for the exerience they grw so fast its awesome, kinda makes non auto plants feel tooo slow lol. i have pics on my journal if u wanna have a look and also 1 old pic in my profile. catch ya tom

 

[silouan]

yeah, i really like them myself. impressive for such small plants.

off the wall question, but...have you by chance tried that russian rocket fuel? i got 10 free ones last time i ordered and was wondering if this strain puts on any weight like the lr2 and easy ryder.

i was thinking that it was a santa maria, but they said that incorrect seeds were placed in the lr2 packets. could be anything. plan to flower them out anyways and see what they are like.

thanks for the auto thread guide. should be some interesting reading.

 

[sweetsmoker]

no worries mate its nice to see the other strains when mature helps to choose ya next crop. plus pick up a few handy tips etc, nice 1 never tried those rocket fuel, but wit so many strains out there it cant hurt to give them all ago

i hate hearing of these not auto-ing ,
or males from fem seeds
any seed company screw ups in general...
best of luck with your next times around

 

[sly423]

I know this is an old post, but I am currently having the same issues with a LR2. I was wondering how long the flowering took once you decided to drop the lights to 12/12.
