I'm moving indoors this winter, love the outdoor grow (see pics), and was wondering about the auto-flowing strains and how to grow them. I'm talking about the Lowryder, Powerstout, Lowryder crosses, ect. Do you start with a 12/12 cycle right from seed? Do you feed with bloom nutes right away and use a HPS light also? I'm familiar with growing regular strains in-doors but want tro try one of these.
They thrive under hps from start to finish. most growers use a 20/4 light cycle so the plant has some dark period. You'll be alright to feed some diluted growth nutes until around week 4 at which point you can switch to bloom nutes. Good luck.
Seedbay I think has some MasterLow and you'll see some BlueStreak out sometime in the few months. Not really sure when it'll come out just going into testing now.
Yeah you can use a HPS for the whole grow. I start them out on 24/7 tell they show sex usually 2-3 weeks from seed but I have had males show in 9 days. Once they show sex I drop them into 18/6 some use 20/4 and even a few keep it on 24/7 and they continue to flower. Because of there smaller stature they take alot less nutes so be really carefull on the first grow you do.

...And don't over water, or else these smaller guys can get root rot in the first few sensitive weeks.
I rotted 8 of my 10 seeds on my first lowryder grow , wasnt happy after paying £45 !!
The other 2 were female thank god , imagine if they were male , ahaha.
