I don't really know if it would be a stable cross as lowryders autoflowering gene was an anomaly which benfitted the grower from what I heard.
Theres only one stable cross I've heard of which is AK-47 and lowryder, which is minigun. I don't know if you could get a stable cross.
But Grow it and see the sex, if you r SD is a male then crosss it with a female lowryder.
Be sure to pollinate your lowryders with each other so you can have shitloads of seeds though.
Hope it helped
I've been doing this for a while and STILL don't want to deal with the hassle of making Lowryder crosses.
I'd only cross autoflowering strains to other autoflowering strains... seriously it could just end up being a mess.
id cross it twice to lr so it flowers like 2 weeks faster.. dutchbreed did that with blueberry an it flowers in 5-6 weeks

You need to have as part of your breeding gene pool a plant with an exceptionally short flower time if you wish to reduce the flower time of the end product.
Take a plant that smells good and has a 9 week flower, and a plant that smells boring and has a 6 week flower... cross them... The f1 hybrids will be likely to show only limited variation in both smell and flower time, since one will be dominant ove the other.
Take the F1 generation and allow it to freely breed... the F2 generation will show a variety of phenotypes, with some combination of fast/slow and sweet/boring.
From this generation you can start to select for the traits you like.
This is STILL very simplified, and describes the laziest most primitive way of breeding cannabis, but I am well on my way to being completely drunk and don't feel like writing the next masterpiece of western literature.
Thx.
im sure its a little more complicated but just givin the jist..im not actaully sure wat they did but im pretty sure they crossed it twice and it ended up flowering significantly faster.
the description says blueberry x lowryder x lowryder x blueberry.. so i dont know if that means its crossed twice.. or wat.
If the cross was written in that order and they are following protocol, it should have been shown like this:Quote:

And that would mean that they used 2 initial crosses, a BB female and a LR male, and then the other first cross a LR female and a BB male.
Then they would have selected the best female from the first cross and bred her to the best male from the other first cross.
