Nute question. LR2

Hey guys, I need some help about nutes

My lowrider #2 plants are 3 and a half weeks old. They are growing in 2 liter plastic bottles under sunlight in my balcony..

I purchased a fertilizer from the local store (none of the known brands are available in my country, sadly)


Its says on it that it is "7-3-7". The instruction says to mix 10ml of nute with 1 liter of water, but theres no mention of how often I just apply this to the plants.


so my question is.
1) Is this an appropriate fertilizer for my lowriders?
2) How often should I apply it to the plants?



thanks a bunch.

i would give half the rec. dose what it says on the bottle, 1 time a week for a couple of weeks then just a little more every week till you get to the rec dose.
dont feed too much , there is food in the soil for now.
are you p. bottles clear?
if so put tape around them cos roots dont like light.
what light sced are you using and i take the lr2 are auto flowers?.
any pics

hey thanks for quick reply..

I covered the bottles with thick paper so light dont get through. they are outside under sunlight, so they get about 14 hours of light everyday, bout 4-5 hours direct sunlight..

and yea they are auto flowers...


is 2 litre bottle ok for LR2? I can see a few small and thin roots at the bottom of the bottles.. is it necessary to transplant the lowriders I wonder?

Transplant them if you like i have LR2 going as well and they are in 8 quart pots and not getting repotted. they stay small they will show sex soon in a bout another week if you are right on the 3 weeks of growing. Got some last year 2-4 week flowering pics of LR2 i can show ya. they stay small but they get so fat with nug and it smells so gooood!

i used 2l bottles before and found them ok to start the transplanted into 3l then 4l but i ended up using a proper pot in the end up, as i suggest you also do, the more you have to repot the more stressed a plant will get.

well out of the 5 seeds, only 3 germinated and so far only 1 looks to be female.. I see sacks on the other 2 but hoping maybe some pistils will come out of them..

I'm extremely unlucky i guess on my 1st grow, only 1 female out of 5 seeds =/


I will leave it on the 2 liter bottle for this grow I suppose.. I dont want my only female to turn hermie

Anyways I will get some pictures up soon.. thanks for replies guys.

Finally got around to taking some pictures.. The plants are a little over 5 weeks old.

currently i got 1 female and 2 males.. I'm gonna move the males to somewhere else untill its time to pollenate (BTW, when do I know its time??)


One more question.. can I just crop some of the plant to dry and smoke, then pollenate the remaining little bits?

Oh and, should i switch to some other fertilizer now it looks like they are flowering??
