    lowryder harvest

    I can relate to your pain. I had 1 out of 5 turn out to be females. I saved a male to make seeds and harvested about 200 seeds so I am now set. My next grow will be 15 seedlings in one big pot. I will pluck the males as they are identified. And the answer is no for any people who want some...

    lowryder harvest

    Mine got about 9 inches and was all Bud maybe 1/2 ounce per plant. I have seen many grows where they got bigger, like up to 2ft. I think alot has to due with your lighting and heat. CFL grows tend to be talleras they stretch for the light. I postulate that the more intense the light, the...

    lowryder#2 hydro or soil?? need advice

    Hydro pros - grow faster, but LR is already a fast grower even in soil Cons- major pain in the ass with regular checks and you can fail and ruin the crop if you fuck up. Soil cons- a little slower. Pros- less work and almost foolproof for lowryder. You will have...

    First Grow: 2 18-Gallon Rubbermaids & CFLs(Pics)

    I think it is a good move. I was only following to see if it could be done. I really didn't think there was much of a chance in that environment. Better luck with your next grow. Give some serious consideration to a stealth cabinet grow in your closet. You need to research ventilation and...

    Why not 2in each pot if money is as issue. I'm going for 10 in one pot! I think the 150watt can handle it if you have some sidelighting. I use daylight T5's and my buds were nice and tight at harvest. Good luck.

    Best if you get them going soon so they don;t have to compete for light as some get taller. You should also consider pollinating the lower buds on one plant for some free seeds. I did this and got 200 seeds. Good luck. We have alot in common - failed AG groe then move on to the cabinet grow...

    Lowryder#2 Journal

    You only got 2 plants going? I would germinate more If I were you for 2 good reasons. 1- LR have a lower rate of females compared to other strains 50/50 chance. I had only 1 out of 5 my last grow. 2- they are small and you can probably grow 3-4 or more under 150watt HPS. Go ahead and...

    Lowryders 2 - Seed to smoke....

    Your not going to believe this. I just pulled 4 seeds off a lowryder bud that was water cured for a week then dried in an oven for an hour at 150 F. I germinated them to see if they would work last night. After one day 2 of them are germinating! I can't believe it. The seeds were swelled...

    Fan Problemo!

    Smell gets pretty strong even with one plant. You will need a carbon scrubber attached to the exhaust fan. Alternatively you can run some duct and vent to the outside of the house. That's what I do.

    First Grow: 2 18-Gallon Rubbermaids & CFLs(Pics)

    I have read some bad things about the moisture control. Most involves easy overwatering and nut burn. It may work for your situation though.

    CFL or T5

    I use T5 for side lighting. I like them, but they are expensive. I would say go with CFL as they are way cheaper and much more mobile.

    Fan Problemo!

    Never mind. After a second look I see that have 2 file drawers of height. I thought it was only one. It will still be easier with a lowryder strain, but not essential.

    Fan Problemo!

    You may have a shot if you get some lowrder, lowryder 2 or lowryder diesel seeds. They stay really short.

    Lowryder 2 seed grow with pics

    The plant was only about 10 inches high. I was going to use Foxfarm Ocean for the bed grow. Basically throw about 15-20 seeds in a big pot and pull the males as they appear.

    Lowryder 2 seed grow with pics

    I will answer the question myself. I harvested the pollinated buds yesterday (About day 80) and all the seeds seem mature. Probably could have harvested earlier, but this grow was primarily practice and for seeds. My plants look pretty small compared to other LR 2 grows I have seen. I bet I...

    *LowRyder 2 Closet Grow*

    looking really nice. Were your last plants as big? It looks like you are going to get more than 18 grams from each of these plants don't you think?

    Lowryder and autoflowering strains.....

    I plucked about 30 seeds today which is maybe half of what is left in the drying buds. I estimate that I got about 1/2 -3/4 ounce when dried from one plant. I think I can do better next time by increasing the nutrients and keeping them under CFL's for longer so they stretch. I made the...

    Lowryder and autoflowering strains.....

    You have to wait until the male sacs are ripe and just about ready to open. You will know what to look for when a few start to open and release pollen. Just take the ones that look the same color and any freshly opened ones and put them in the jar. you will not get any pollen from them if you...

    First Grow: 2 18-Gallon Rubbermaids & CFLs(Pics)

    You definately need to get them in bigger pots if you want to go several days without watering. They need it daily in those small cups. My seedlings drank half a cup of water daily when they were in the heat. I know this because I would put them on a scale before watering each time. Once...
