they look like they're coming along nicely dude :thumbsup: , i just ordered some lowryder seeds myself. but i'm wondering, how much root room do they need from start to finish. like what size pot could grow a sprout until it flowered (at let's say 14")???? thought you might have an idea

[MeatRulz]

Nice plants can't wait to see em get bigger.

[Dutchmaster420]

that one big one is doing really good man are the rest the same age?

[Dutchmaster420]

the big plant and the one next to it are just mids seeds. do you think the others are too small for their age?? they are on day 13... should i be using only the water/nutes mix or should i be switching back and forth from plain water to the mixed water??


have u guys ever heard of chocolate thai stick? this kid gave me a nug at school check it out...

[Dutchmaster420]

update... i switched to only water.... do you think the others are too small for the age? what does it mean when the pedals turn yellowish.

hey dude i plann on growing some lowryder pretty soon, once i get all my shit figured out, im getting some seeds in the mail from a dude on here for free its awesome, keep the updates comming i wanna see how things turn out



ede

[Dutchmaster420]

anyone???

[MeatRulz]

O well the lowryders aren't too small for day 13 i guess they still need a lil more time the mid plant must just be growing fast.

[Dutchmaster420]

what does it mean when the pedals turn yellow? on one of them the pedal just shrivled up..

[delta9thc06]

Well if u have 2 in one pot they can strangle each other by the roots. Other then that u could have a nitrogen deficiency or too much nutes.

[Trivium]

what does it mean when the pedals turn yellow? on one of them the pedal just shrivled up..

Its a nitrogen deffiency. I dont think the plants are 'strangling' them selves already .... One is significantly bigger then the other , they dont have enough roots to wrap up and strangle eachother yet. Feedthem some nitrogen, but not a big dose, should green that bad girl up.

[Dutchmaster420]

just an update the others are looking alright this mids is growing crazy here is a picture.

[Dutchmaster420]

at what day can you see the first signs of sex? i think i can already tell that two are female?? there is little hairs coming out of the top...

[orangeman]

Well theres no set date to when the plants will show their sex, only an estimate :p but they are lookin good, keep up the good work ^_^.

[smoky mcpot 05]

yes chocolate thai is a good outdoors strain, but what was pictured wasnt it, looked like some hay bud to me. nice lowryder grow, be careful of prying eyes though.

[Dutchmaster420]

alright so im pretty shure that the lowryder's are budding. i can see the first hairs growing from two off them and im pretty shure two of them are males. the mids plants are really doing good... here are some pictures tell me what u guys think.

first pic is the two lowryder males (i put them in the same pot away from the females)
second pic is the big mids plant
third pic is the younger mids plant
last pic is the lowryder budding(i think)

[Weedhound]

Nice plants, but what a great view off that balcony!!

[MeatRulz]

Dam nice female lowryder man.

[Dutchmaster420]

Hey when it is time to harvest is it possible to just take the buds off and the plant will harvest again in 60 days????

[MeatRulz]

no i dont think so dude it only buds once.

[Dutchmaster420]

Fuuuuuuuck, i just figured out there is a hurricane coming towards where i live at..... what am i supposted to do with my plants???

[MeatRulz]

Bring them inside during the storm? get a cooler and put them in it.

[Dutchmaster420]

yea but the heavy rain and shit is gonna happen for like 3 days will they die if they have no light for 2 or 3 days??

[passmethebigofatty]

go buy some cfl's and shine some light on them while theyre inside

[sombro]

put them on the windowledge for a couple of days they'll be ok.

throw the males away now.

[Dutchmaster420]

Here is an update. They are moving along pretty nice. The first picture is the mids which i think is budding.The second picture is a closeup of what i think is the first hairs. The third is a picture of my lowryder doing pretty nicely its just real small. The fourth picture is another mids plant. Tell me what you guys think!

[redrosesforabluelady]

just give them some artificial light i think they would be alright

[Dutchmaster420]

they have been back outside. they were on the window ledge for only 2 days

[Dutchmaster420]

So everyday i come back from school it seems there are like 3 or 4 of these little bugs sitting on the leaves of my plants. ive been noticing some holes and some yellow spots at random places of the leaves. I got a picture of the bug could someone tell me what it could be/what i should do.

[attachment=o86336]

[sombro]

you should be so lucky, I found a fucking locust sitting on mine

[Dutchmaster420]

so what is it?

[Dutchmaster420]

yo wtf is that bug there is more now........

[Dutchmaster420]

[attachment=o88238]

[attachment=o88239]

[MeatRulz]

i dont know what the bugs are but that lowryder plant looks extremely small even for a lowryder.

[Slackersulli]

Yeah, I believe Lowryders usually grow about 12-15 inches before they start to flower. That seems pretty small.

[Dutchmaster420]

i think its from all the shock from moving them outside after week2. Anyway the big plant is almost 2 feet tall now and is flowering... the top cola is starting to get really hairy but the rest of the branches look like they are growing seeds? is it female or male? or maybe its just cus its mids its growing both seeds and hairs?

[Dutchmaster420]

anyone

[Baker420]

could be a hermie... keep an eye on it...

[Dutchmaster420]

should i take off the male parts.

[Baker420]

no no no the "seed" looking things might just be part of the bud... some more pics would be better.

[Earthy Dank]

its male I'd just kill it... those are pollen sacs that are about to burst with pollen and any nearby females will be ruined...

[Dutchmaster420]

are u shure it has hair all over it...

[Earthy Dank]

Its hermaphrodite... I would kill it... Hermaphrodites are just as bad as males...

[Dutchmaster420]

if it keeps growing its just gona harvest real shitty seedy mids right? or will it not be smokeable

[Earthy Dank]

Id say the buds would be tiny and full of seeds... you may get something... but any other females you have will be pollenated too and they will make seeds. Thus shitty weed thats half seed, half green.

[NightProwler]

you could sell the hermie to someone...

[maryjanehaze]

give us a lowryder update man :thumbsup:

[oturbojoeo4o]

did he die?

[Markass]

Yeah, I believe Lowryders usually grow about 12-15 inches before they start to flower. That seems pretty small.


You're wrong. Lowryders start to flower around the 20th day from seed..I believe.

[Abattoir Dream]

ummm... this is the first time ive read this thread and just wanted to point out, the 'pedals' turning yellow and shrivelling up is not a defficiency of any kind, all plants do this, those first round leaves (cotyledons) actually store all the nutes needed to take it through the seedling stage, and will die at adolescence, there is nothing to worry about, oh yeh, nice plants man ;) lowryders are cool plants...

[gornik]

I have a hermie among three females and just took some tweezers and plucked the "balls" off it. I freaked when I first saw it and searched the threads here for a solution. It doesn't make any sense to throw out a perfectly good plant just because it grows a few nubs. So far the plant I castrated still looks like the other two. I'm keeping a close eye on it until I cut them down.

[xfukinxfedxupx]

get a lamp just a desk lamp will do and put them under that i think that might be hot enough

[xfukinxfedxupx]

sorry i was talkin about the end of the first page my mistake

[Earthy Dank]

ITs best to kill hermies because they will pollenate your females and the seeds that they make are no good... Its possible to take all the balls but you'd have to pay very close attention... A few days of neglect will make your buds full of seeds

[rev]

Time to go indo! Get some cfl's and a timer.

[rev]

opps, i did the same thing as fukinfedup. sry!

[Nocturnal Stoner]

what happened to him, Im getting some lowryders soon, and gonna grow them big ass.

[Dr.Hashman]

His lowryders were very yellowish compared to mine which are a dark green color. Just something I noticed.

[thedoctoerzoidberg]

your lowryders look aweful. you should never grow plants in a clear container..... or one that will let light hit the roots. this will stunt growth and cause molding. if you grow lowryder again start them off in at least a one gallon pot. they don't get more than two feet tall out doors but this is all determined by how much root space you give them. i am growin lr2 right now. my latest batch is 8 days old and on there third set of true leave. i'm growing in dirt using distilled water. when you grow lr you SHOULD NOT FERTILIZE in the first couple of weeks. the plant will carry the nutrients it needs in the "round" leaves (the first set, not true leaves). if these turn yellow and fall off in the first couple of weeks you can fertilize, but i never use more than 1/8th strenght for the first application. (i use b.c. boost and growth) continue fertalizing at 1/4 strenght then 1/2 untill the third week, you should be able to sex them at the end of the third week or within a few days either way. i let mine continue to flower for a week and then start them on 1/2 strenght blooming fertilizer (i use b.c. boost and bloom and add awesome blossom and kick it to full strenght for the seventh and eighth weeks, flushing weeks nine and ten. why wait ten weeks for less than an ounce????

:hippy:
