I just finished up a Low Ryder 2 grow. I thought I'd just share, for those who were wondering. LR2 is a better yielding, better smoking plant - compared to the orginal Low Ryder. Plant size depends largely, on pot size. Grown in a 4 inch pot - you get a 6 inch tall, 4 inch wide plant. Grown in a 3 gallon pot, you get a 20-24 inch tall, 12-20 inch wide plant.
.
It grows best with 16-18 hours of light, throughout the entire grow. No need to flip the lights to 12/12. It grows & switches to flowering regardless of what you do with the lights. Males show there ugly heads first (2 at 17 days, 3 at 19 days.) I had Five females (2 at 20 days, 3 at 22 days). From seed to harvest (60-65 days total). I harvested one a day, starting on the 60th day.
.
The smoke is very smooth & uplifting, like old school Skunk. The little buds get real frostie. I will be starting another run here soon. I will post a grow diary on this grow. The average yield per plant was 22 grams dried bud; using just a 250 HPS. Many people are using CFL lights, saying they don't even need a HPS. This time I will do half outside, the other half under lights; to determine if light intensity even matters.
.
Now, I know what your going to say - " Was that it ". Yes, but really decent smoke - one or two puffs & your there. The stuff grows so low to the ground - I truly doubt deputy dog - crusing by in his copter could see it. What is lacks in weight it makes up for in turn around time.
.
I will do several, test plots this go around, to determine the average male to female ratio, if light intensity matters..etc.. I've been told it is usually 50/50 or 60/40 male to female, regardless of soil, nutrients, light or temperature. We shall see.... Note to DEA: If you are reading this post, I am completely insane - locked up in a Mental Ward - in Fiji. So, ignore this I'm out of your jurisdiction... Mate....
