and if you thihnk i sould when in the plants life cyle would you make the switch?

Yes lowryder is considered a ruderellis species of cannabis. I suggest using a bulb like an (Eye Hortilux HPS) with added blue spectrum or a (SunMaster Warm Deluxe MH) with added red spectrum to acheive the best possible out of your plant. Good luck.

Yeah...

I would start with the MH... then, about 18-20 days into it, switch to the HPS.
