Here we go again lowryder2

[weedmaster]

Growing outside in a small green house. out of the 4 seeds i planted 3 weeks ago 3 are female the 4th i think is a male and is indoors untill i can determine its sex. the weather has started to get alot better so i'm hopeing for better results than the first grow, the picture shows the 3 infant females and what is left of my previous grow, needed to harvest a little early last time due to mold but this one had imature lower buds so i thought i would chop 80% of it and just put it back in the gh, to my surprise the buds have carried on growing.

[YaYoKush]

Keep us posted man u hade a great log last time

[weedmaster]

DAY 31
Not to much happenning at the moment the 4th plant was a male and has been wiped out. the other 3 are comeing along ok with the 2 repotted plants doing much better than the one that hasn't but that is due to not enough room in the greenhouse due to the previous plant is still in there but that one is as far as it will go now so ill be chopping that one today so i can make room for the other one, lower leaves got burnt on all 3 and a catterpillar had a little chew on one but i don't think theres anything to worry about.

[Matt the Funk]

Do you post on another forum? lol I swear i've seenthose exact plants before. In the exact space. Anyways nice. You should try some master lows, they have been peaking my interest lately.

[KL4D4]

it sucks when the sunlight burns the plants outdoors had the same problem, but shes adapted already! G Luck!

[weedmaster]

YAYOKUSH thanks bro i must have been updateing as the same time as you so it's an instant update for you lol.
Matt i dont post anywhere else except here, maybe some bastard has been nicking my pictures lol. Haven't heard of the master lows i'll look them up to see what they are like.
KL thanks for dropping by, what you growing at the moment?

[hydrocannabis]

the new growth looks good bro. good luck on this grow.

[YaYoKush]

Quick question WM how is the stinch off those lowryders you may have answered alrdy but from you experiance could it be controlled for a indoor grow? Sorry to here about those darn pests man. From your first log it has inspired me to go with some lowryder genetics small quick yield im luvin it. Maybe when i begin a log you can be the man i go to hehe altho your outdoor im indoor.

[BuddyX]

looks good, how old are they, stonem8

[weedmaster]

thanks hydro.
Buddy the small ones were 31 days and the remains of the last one in the last picture is approx 100 days maybe more but not to sure.
YAYO did you mean stench if so the LR2 stinks but if thats a problem the original LR1 i have been told doesn't hardly smell, if you do a LR grow make a log as i would be very interested to see the differance in progress under lights.
will be takeing pictures and updateing tommorow.

[YaYoKush]

Hell yea man i would go with the LR #2's beacuase ive read about some LR grows and they had very small yields but im just gettin my Grow Tubs put together so in a mater of weeks ill be making my first grow log. Plus if i grew LR2 you think a carbon filter would help kill the smell in a closed closet?

[weedmaster]

DAY 35
The weather has been good and all plants doing well, gave 1/2 strength nutes for the first time 4 days ago and the ladies have responded well. I have now repotted the smallest so expect her to start catching up with the other 2, a couple of photos so you can see how much they have grown over the last 4 days.Pictures 1&2 are of the 2 largest.

[weedmaster]

DAY 43.
everything seems to be going good, these ladies seem to be growing just slightly quicker than the last grow. gave water with 3/4 strength nutes yesterday, these girls dont drink much 2 weeks was last time i fed them.
pic 1 is of the bushiest and the one wiyh the most budding sites.17" high
pic 2 is the plant in the middle which is quite lanky but has started to produce trichs already. 18" high.
pic 3 is my favourite only 6" high but a perfect dwarf, i think it's so cute.
pic 4 is all 3 togeather.

[hydrocannabis]

looks dam good to me WM.

[weedmaster]

DAY 50
some good growth over the last week. the smallest one has not stretched so it looks like it's going to be a dwarf at only 7" high, but i love this little one, it has now started to produce trichs. the second one isn't very bushy but is produceing alot of trichs and has a nice head. The 3rd one has continued to stretch and is now bigger than plant 2, and is alot bushier with plenty of buds and this one has also started to produce trichs
pic 1 all 3 plants togeather
pic 2 my favourite one the dwarf
pic3 the middle sized one
pic 4 the largest.

[BUZz UK]

Wow, they look really nice. I may have to invest in some LR2 seeds...

[weedmaster]

a simple plant to grow buzz with a very good body and head high.

[Ryno]

Hiya weedmaster!!

Those babies are lookin great!

Any chance of an update?

Im definitly gonna invest into LR2 for my next grow :)

Whats the yield like per plant?

Ryno

[weedmaster]

thanks Ryno the yield isn't fantastic anything from 7g to 20g , my last lot averaged about 11gs a plant, i'll post a proper update tonight with pics:thumbsup:

[weedmaster]

DAY 55 all plants are comeing along nicely, and are starting to really smell, the smallest one i have started to put in the shed at night as it's getting cold at night, and this one is getting 12 hours light 12 dark, don't know if it will make any differance as they are autoflowering but i thought i would give it a try. the other 2 are happy as they are. heres a few pics.
pic1 is of the 2 largest.
pic 2 is the small one.
pic3 is all 3 togeather.

[Ryno]

AWWW!!! Look at the lil tiny one!! haha bless it :)

Hmmm not a too good a yield then but to be fair they dont look much different from a normal bush ey :) lol

Ye it think im gonna get some seeds for my next grow do you know of any other automaticly flowring strains?

I dounbt doing the 12/12 light cycle will make any idfference as the are automatic would prob enjoy the extra light :)

Anyways WM Good Grow so far! :)

Check my first gro log out. It in this section somewhere its got a lil blue arrow next to it youll find it :)

Cheers! and good luck bro!

Ryno :rastasmoke:

[weedmaster]

no ryno the yield isn't very good but i like haveing a little grow in the garden so thought i'd do the LR2 and hope i get 2 grows dureing the summer and theyre easy to hide, when i get round to it i'm going to build a permenate grow cab with lights in the garden, like you said the extra hours of light might be better for the little one.

[BuddyX]

looks like so good man. it budding already at day 50...gj

[Flameon]

Hi Weedmaster, I just wanted to drop in and say thanks for the inspiration.
I've been 'lurking' for a while and after reading and seeing the pictures from your last grow diary (great job by the way!) thought I'd take the plunge and give it a whirl! (I'm out of touch with the dealer network so it should be cheaper than trips back and forth to the 'dam' lol).
Proud to say I'm on day fifteen of my LR 2 conservatory grow, and so far so good!
This one's just an experiment though as I think I've left it too late in the year unless I get lights. How old were yours when you first added nutes by the way?

Keep up the good work and cheers!

[weedmaster]

thanks flame, i repotted the 2 largest plants when i realised they were female at approx 3 weeks and waterd with no nutes, then the next feed (31 days old) gave 1/2 strength for first time.Good to hear you got a grow on the go, i wish you all the very best on your grow.keep us updated :greenthumb:

[mjdragon]

REALLY like the look of those WM... look very healthy with the lush growth. I've tried growing outside too, personally i found it too difficult (N England).. I'm a far happier indoor grower now, but you definitely know your stuff mate, i'll keep checking in - i really wanna know how they turn out!

Good luck!:thumbsup:

[weedmaster]

thanks MJ, just checked out your grow looking good:thumbsup:

[maryjane911]

what was your yield from this grow also where did you buy the seeds??

[ismokealldaylong420]

do you mind me asking were you got the lr2 beans at or the lr1:thumbsup:

[weedmaster]

i'm expecting about an oz of the 3 dryed and cured, but they are bulking up nicely so fingers crossed and the sun stays out maybe a little more.i got the beens from Legal Highs, Glass Bongs, Pipes Head Shop (http://www.everyonedoesit.com)
took the plants indoors this morning for 1/2 hour(long story why, so wont bore you) but i did take a few pics but i think i had the camera settings wrong i'm no photographer lol
pic1 the small one.
pic 2 the middle sized one
pic3 the largest

[Ryno]

Lookin good WM!

Those babies lookin juicy now :) haha

Good luck bro when you harvesting?

-Ryno

[weedmaster]

cheers Ryno , the flash on the camera has really highlighted the trichs. The trichs are 70% cloudy 30% clear at the moment and the buds are starting to bulk nicely, this grow seems to be a bit more advanced than the last grow, maybe because i introduced the ferts much earlier and the weather has been better. I will harvest at 80% cloudy 20%amber, at a guess that should be about 2-4 weeks time, just hope with the cold damp nights they don't start to get mold, i will leave as long as possible, fingers crossed.

[Flameon]

Hi Weedmaster
I'm just wondering if the cold damp nights haven't already got to your plants, I'm starting to see 'frost' forming on them already lol.

Thanks for the kind words, I'm on day twenty now and she's a girl!
I only planted one seed just to check that I'd got my growing medium right, but she's coming on so well I'm going to see if I can 'nurse' her through an English autumn into October. I'll let you know how it goes.

Cheers!

[weedmaster]

IT'S A GIRL, thats good news flame, good to hear all is going well, keep up the good work m8 and make sure to let us know how you're getting on:thumbsup:

[hydrocannabis]

hot dam weedmaster. damm. thouse R super cristaly buds U grew there.:thumbsup::jointsmile:

UR LR2 grow's make me wanna try to grow LR2 with my hydro DWC. I would do 2 grows.
1 indoors under CLF lights and the other outdoors under the sun..
both would be grown in a DWC system..

anyway wish U great luck on getting a good harvest. ok there MR. bling bling.:stoned:

:stoned:hydro.

[eyeslikedonuts]

very inspiring WM. :thumbsup: I just ordered LR#2 20 minutes ago from dr. chronic and i alrdy have butterflies in my stomache in anticipation of recieving and growing em.. well done. peace, e :jointsmile:

[weedmaster]

Hydro with your dwc system i'm sure you would get better results than i have looking at your last grow:thumbsup:
Eyes LD great to hear you getting some beans, make a log so we can all enjoy your grow.

DAY 65
the trichs on all 3 are 95% cloudy and 5% clear, but the buds aren't bulking as much as i would like, i think this may be due to the cold nights, the largest one has bulked satisfactory but the middle sized one and especially the smallest could do with getting fatter, i'm very tempted to get a light,if anyone has any sugestions i would appreciate your input. i'm also tempted to harvest the largest or the middle one as my mates grow who i score from has had to be dismantled and all thats going around is that shitty grit weed which i refuse to smoke or below average weed, i hate decisions like this. heres some pics taken this morning.
pic 1 is the smallest
pic 2 is the middle size one
pic 3 the largest
pic 4 all 3

[weedmaster]

i'm down to 2 plants now noticed mold on the middle sized one so i had no hesitation in chopping early before it spread, bit of a shame really as ive been getting some good bud over the last week so i wanted to leave these as long as possible, drilled some extra ventilation holes in the ghouse to try to prevent this happening on the last 2.
DAY 76
the 2 remaining plants are doing well the smallest has started to bulk now and hopeing given another couple of weeks should be ready, the other plant's trichs are now 98% cloudy and 2% amber so i think this one needs another week but ill wait untill 80%cloudy 20% amber.couple of pics taken yesterday.

[cannabis182]

hey mang i LOVE your lr2 grows:thumbsup:

Do you by any chance have any beans?


Peace:thumbsup::jointsmile:

[weedmaster]

thanks canna, i don't have any beens left but i'm going to be reordering some within the next week or two, and will be building a small outside box approx 4ftx2ftx2ft with lights and fan, but haveing trouble finding the time as i,m snowed under with work at the moment, but things will quiten down within the next couple of weeks and as soon as it does i'll be on the case.:thumbsup:

[Flameon]

Hi Weedmaster

I just popped in to see how things are going, and am very glad to see how well the grow is going. Very good job indeed, and an excellent diary!

I've just got back from a couple of weeks hols and am amazed to see the difference in my own plant now on day 40. It's just a fraction bigger than your smallest plant was at about the same time, so I'll be very interested to see at what date you harvest and how much yield you get from it.

Keep up the good work! :thumbsup:

[Turtlez]

Hey your plants are looking lovely, its a shame you had to pull one cuz of mold. i myself am getting mold on my plant but i'm removeing it becuase i cant harvest early (ive only got one plant and it just wouldnt be worth growing all summer to settle for a short-lived high without any stone) I'd sugest the same to you, if you encounter more mold, battle that fuker, cut it out, dont let it call the shots. These plants are yours, and no damn fungus should interfear with you gettin the best damn dank nature can provide.
best of luck to you man! dont forget harvest pics when the time comes

[weedmaster]

Thanks Flame, hope you had a great holiday:thumbsup:are you growing inside?
Turtle i noticed a small bit of mold on the largest plant yesterday and done what you suggested and cut the contaminated bud only off, i will post an update with pics tonight when i get home from work, best of luck with your grow:thumbsup:

[Flameon]

Thanks! I had a great holiday, I only wish I could have taken my plant! I'm sure it would have enjoyed a couple of weeks of mediterranean sun instead of the grey misery it's had to put up with at home.

Yes, I am growing indoors, nothing more sophisticated than a plant pot in the conservatory, so only natural light, and as I'm a bit further north than yourself, not too much of that.

I'm a bit concerned that I'm going to struggle to keep it going without lights as we're down to less than 11 hours of watery light a day. Ahh well I'll be planting for the summer next time.

Here's a couple of pics, let me know what you think.
1st one is at 16 days, the other two taken today, Day 41.

[weedmaster]

they look really lush and healthy, i can see lots of trichs on that last one, thats a great photo:thumbsup: i know what you mean with the daylight hours and overcast weather it doesn't help us out:( my largest is satisfactory but the small one hasn't bulk as much as i would have liked and i was thinking of getting 4 cfl lights and knock up a small cabinet to help it along for another couple of weeks, but i'm really busy at the mo and haven't had the time to look, i see some in b&q but it didn't say what the lumens were and i didn't want to get them incase they were blue, i'll try and get something sorted at the weekend. anyway heres a couple of pics taken today.

[hydrocannabis]

god dam dude.

[allah]

I would like one of those buds, but my tongue would get stuck. Let me know how she smokes please. =)

[weedmaster]

hows it going Hydro, all good i hope mate:thumbsup:
Allah the smoke of the Lowryder2 is quite a strong head and body high, i didn't think the smoke would be as good as it is, it's not super super strong but it's good enough, and anybody who gives it a go won't be disapointed:D

[Flameon]

How's it going weedmaster, any news, updates or pics?

My 'bonsai' LR2 is still pretty comical, but is starting to bulk up a bit now, won't be much, but I never expected it to grow this time of year anyhow, so it's all a bonus.

:)

p.s Two whole days of sun! has it reached your 'neck of the woods'?

[weedmaster]

i'm good flame good to hear your girls are still progressing:thumbsup:, the sun' been out for the last 3 days:D but it's been very cold and damp at night:( it's now day 86 the largest one i had to chop the top branch last week as to much mold kept appearing i did start cutting it out with a stanley blade but in the end i had to cut the whole branch,so it's a bit smaller now but it's just about ready now but i will leave just a little bit longer.the buds that were cut are now dry and today i started to cure and had a little sample smoke, the results were good and when cured will be better i will then do a proper smoke report.
the dwarf still hasn't bulked much but the buds are very compact,because of the cold damp nights i have been putting the dwarf in the shed at night to try and prevent mold getting to this one and at the moment seems to be working. still haven't got round to makeing another box with lights etc but i will definately be building one very soon.heres a couple of pics taken today.
pic 1 a couple of the dried buds

[floyd2zapper]

Hi wm but rod not sorry to hear it m8 i got it in my ak going to try (hollands hope) next year.

Take it easy.

[Flameon]

Nice looking nugs wm, lots of crystals.

When you manicure them what do you do with the 'small leaf' trimmings? (are they called 'sugar leaves'?).

I'm just wondering because mine have quite a few trichs on them and it seems a bit of a waste to just cut them off. I had planned on drying them too, and either using them in joints or cooking with them (if I eventually collect enough).

I'd be interested to hear your take on the subject.
Cheers
Flame

[weedmaster]

hows it going Floyd, your ak grow is looking sweet your lucky you could move your outside ones in with your other grow, i've got to get some lights. the Mrs is cool with me building something permanent in the garden.Hollands hope is meant to go well outside with our climate, was looking at them last year another one that has potential with our climate is Early Pearl, very hardy, mold resistant with a big yield, thc content 17% i think thats right.
Flame hope your girls are doing good.with the small leaves that are caked in trichs i useally smoke them they are so full of trichs i wouldn't want to waste them lol, you don't get as good high as the bud but you definately get a buzz.
Harvest time for the largest today, mold keeps appearing even though i have 3 times cut it out with a stanley blade, i would have liked a few more amber trichs, 95% cloudy 5% amber in the end, would have liked 80/20, but i still have the small one which i put in the shed at night, that has no sighns of mold so i will carry on and hope the buds bulk a bit more on that one.
when dry i will weigh. them last couple of buds were 2gms and i have just smoked a couple of joints verdict this post has taken me at least an hour lol it's good.
heres a pic of the cut

[Flameon]

Nice harvest wm, looking good!

I've got a couple of questions I'm hoping you could help me with. I'm trying to judge the best time to 'chop in' my plant, and I think it might not be too far away now.

Can you take a look at the pic, and give your thoughts as to how you think it's doing, also, does the fact that more than half of the pistils are amber mean it's end is near.

I'm guessing it's probably a couple of weeks, but would appreciate your expertise.

[weedmaster]

looking fantastic flame:thumbsup:you cant judge a plant by its pistils, best way is with a magnifying glass 30x is idael i only have 20x eye loupe £2 from ebay but thats good enough. you need to be looking at the trichs heres a link to help you.http://boards.cannabis.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=22287&d=1122444319
keep letting me know how your getting on:jointsmile:

[Flameon]

Cheers, thanks for that wm, I'll get right on it!

:thumbsup:

[wiscofarmer]

hey weed, did you build that box yet?, I read earlier you were worried about color of cfls...when lookin for cfl look for an approx 6000k-6500k for veg or a 2700-3500k for flower, since your growing an autoflower Id mix the 2 and go full spectrum!...great looking plants by the way! have you done any research on the power stout auto flowering?, Ive been wanting to get some seeds but I live in the US and am paranoid as to who I should try, any suggestions?

[weedmaster]

thanks for dropping by wisco, i haven't started the new box yet' no excuses just been a lazy stoner lol, thanks for the tip, so K represents the lumens? didn't realise that i was just looking for lumens on the box and couldn't understand why most didn't have it but now i know K stands for lumens that will make things alot easier:thumbsup: Power stout is a new one to me i'll do a little research on them. as for you getting seeds i use a U.k supplier everyonedoesit.com, don't know if they ship to the states but i think they probally will, there was a thread a while back in the seeds and strains forum on where to get seeds from, have a look in that forum.
heres a couple of pictures of the dwarf who's doing o.k

[weedmaster]

10 grams dry was the weight of the last plant, expected a bit more than that but it's 10g more than i had before and it's a nice smoke.
the dwarf has not changed over the last few weeks,very cold nights and short daylight i think is the cause, and a small bit of mold has just appeared so i have chopped before it gets to the whole plant.

[hydrocannabis]

wow. geat job.

[zlessley]

How did you build (or where did you get) your awesome little greenhouse?
