forcing early flower for early harvest

Thank you all. See if I was in my home state this summer, none of this would even be an issue. I'm just going to have to grow some LR and another tough strain and cross my fingers! I also have some good bag seed that I'll grow out there too. I've been searching a lot and never have found a quote on yield "outdoors" based on real experience using LR or LR 2. Anyone?

Hi Bean, Did you grow this yourself? Seen a thread here? I'm not trying to discount you at all, just wondering where you got that info. I have read of these low yields, but they either or all: using low watt cfl/using the wrong color lights/using small pots for some type of mini stealth grow, all indoor grows. thanks. :)

you can find the same yield info on joint doctors page, half an ounce is pretty good for a 12 inch plant. yes marcnh i have grown it, however i did not harvest, i only had 2 seeds i traded a friend a few skunk#1 freebies for, and both were male, so they were killed after just a few weeks of growth.

Lowryder sucks,,I wouldn't waist my time...The yeild is low, and the quality is not there... you would be better off to flower a few clones instead. It will take almost the same amount of time to flower them, as it would take for a lowryder to finish. IMO...

By the way,,I have grown out this strain,,and I only ended up getting a bit less then 10 grams average..,,LMAO

Hydro, did you grow outdoors? If I grow Loryder I will not start it inside. I will germ and plant in well prepared soil outside immediately after germ as JD says on his grow guide.
 
I read in high times in an article that this process does work. Don't worry bout the haters, I would try and at least force the flower for 3-4 weeks then place outside. Your yield will be small....but you can only do what you can do under the circumstances.
I read that, too. In the little indoor/outdoor calendar at the back for June they say to flower for 4 weeks and then move the plants outside to bask in the sun for an early harvest :bigjoint:. But has anybody actually done this? The magazine says that most indica dominant strains will continue to flower with no problems. I'm 13 days into flower and I'm running out of space so I'm probably going to toss a couple of the GDP's outside since they're small and low profile. Any *EDUCATED* suggestions?bongsmiliebongsmiliebongsmilie:sleep:
