holy moly. thouse R looking great.:thumbsup:

Thanks for stopping in guys.

The plants are all between 25 inches and 36 inches. The yellowing in the leaves I've had for some time but I think I have narrowed it down for the most part to a magnesium deficiency. My water is pretty hard starts at about 7.5ph and 220ppm(my first grow was hydro). I guess hard water has a lot of calcium and can lock out mag. In the last few days I foliar feed epsom salt and water and it appears to have stopped it in its tracks. Yet I still think they are lacking a little Nitrogen, but I'm just going to let them ride it out at this point.

I've polinated the very tall one you can see in the pics thats most effected by the yellowing. I hope to get maybe 50 to 100 seeds to last me some grows for awhile. I would really like to get this strain down to a science.

what nutes did you use?

what light schedule?

whats lowryder I keep seeing ppl talk about :)

[manels1111]

I used fox farm full line nutes and boosters.

Fox Farm
Grow Big
Tiger Bloom
Big Bloom
Open Sesame
Beastie Bloomz
Cha Ching

I used them somewhat according to the schedule.

Lowryders are auto flower plants. No matter what light schedule you have them on they will start showing sex at 15 days old and immediatly start producing buds almost at a violent rate.

My plants have been under 18 hours of light 6 hours of dark since I planted the seeds. My plants at 15 days old were just showing sex and as you can see in the pics have gone from probably 6 inches tall to between 25 to 36 inches tall all the while growing buds.

really!? wow.

so they are still under 18/6?

[manels1111]

Here is a close up of a cola and keep in mind these plants are only 52 days old from the day they sprouted from the rapid rooters.

[manels1111]

Still under 18/6 and you can grow them under 24/0 and they will still flower at 16 days old and they will still grow buds but just not as well as 18/6. Some auto flower growers like 20/4 schedule but you don't have to change the light schedule to induce flowering it happens by the age of the plant.

Well day 54 I decided to harvest my three farthest along. It was getting cramped and light was lacking and so was my stash :)

Chopped at mostly cloudy trichs going to let the rest go to 70% amber. Maybe 3 more weeks I think.

Here are the pics

Pic 1 best coloa
Pic 2 and 3 the main colas
Pic 4 the rest of the bud

Have to say this bud is super crystally compared to my last grow and smells to high heaven. After manicuring the buds I can see we still have some filling out to do. Looked like pockets of white hairs still unfolding after I trimmed the leaves.

[jamboyce]

those are fuckin brill lookin, i grew a few a dem.. you should check out my log..

fair play mate..

[Jimbob1310]

wow nice m8. ive never heard of LR2 getting to 3 feet tall so you have an excelent harvest.

what was the yield for those 3 plants you harvested?

[manels1111]

Still drying.

[manels1111]

2.5 oz dry on those three plants.

Day 63 now going to harvest in 3 days the rest of the plants. Here are some pics from today.

[eclipsegsxy]

Can you post a pic of some dried buds? Lookin good!

[manels1111]

Here are a couple pics from the buds I chopped at 48 days old. Little leafy but crytally as all hell and smells strong. Myself and some friends think this stuff is very stoney. Very strong high not an active high. For only 48 days old and mostly cloudy trichs I think my harvest in a few days is going to be some knock you out weed(which I don't really like personally).

But here are a couple pics.

Hi, Very nice. I'm growing some AF's disealryder and auto ak-47. The diseal are 2 1/2 weeks and my ak-47 are 7 weeks but not nearly as big or as far along as yours were at that stage.

[Jimbob1310]

2.5 oz dry on those three plants.

Day 63 now going to harvest in 3 days the rest of the plants. Here are some pics from today.

brilliantly done m8, excellent yield. i hope mine turn out as good as that.

[manels1111]

Thanks for stopping in.

Day 69 today. Going to chop 3 or 4 in a few days and the remainder next weekend. Here are the pics.


Can anyone name the defeciency?

[Jimbob1310]

its a nitrogen difficiency. a 20-10-10 food or a 10-10-10 food would be perfect. perk your plants right up and should add to bud mass. although feeding them at this stage will make your curing process longer.

those buds are beautiful

[eclipsegsxy]

how do the buds look on the plants you let go longer compared to the ones you already chopped?
