Lowlife Strains?

Has anyone had any experiance with the new lowlife strains?

For those who havent seen them yet, the lowlife strains are Various normal strains bred with lowryders- creating a variety of autoflowering plants

i've got some Auto Hindu Kush arriving tommorrow, they only grow to 12" tall (and yeild about 7g avg in 9 weeks or so)

i'm planning to use a PC case , and eventually have 18 at a time staggered by a week per pair (killing all the males, and hopefully ending up with an average of 7g a week)

apparently the Auto AK-47 is the same quality as non autoflowering

from my research you are pretty close. The crosses do take a little away but Mdanzig seeds that did ALL the breeding (not Lowlife) did a very good job of keeping the strain as strong as possible.

I do know that if you keep the plant in at least a deep one gallon container that each plant will give you around 40 grams each. That is if you keep her happy and make sure the roots never get root bound, if they do you are screwed.


Also keep at least one male around to make some more seed stock so you don't have to keep ordering more seeds.

Keep us informed (or at least me, a lot of people hate on the autoflower) and give us lots of pictures to drool over.

Good luck.

Well the seeds just arrived today, so today i'll be prepping my grow case, and i'll likely start germing on friday- saturday is paycheck day so i'll be buying the light then.

blimy, 40 each is much better than i had heard, in this case i'll prolly plant 5 to start, and use one M+F couple to make seeds.

Pics+Diary starting sometime next week :)

Why order more seeds, just pick a strong mother and clone clone clone clone

Clones dont work so well for Autos, they go into flower about 6" Tall , i'll just use a couple to make enough seeds to last me a decade ;)

When growing autoflowers seeds are the ONLY option. A clone dose not work in these species at all.

Clones DO degenerate, especially after a few "generations" under HPS.

Yeah, I dig. The other guy said clones.

Unfortunately, the effects of HPS are deleterious and noticeable after F4 to F6 generations under these lights, also.

I figure that the "lowlife" marketed strains are very similar to the MDanzig and Joint Doctor strains, save for the various posts around the internet that mention more herms from the lowlife seeds, although the future will give a better indication of lowlife stuff since they've only been selling the seeds for a couple of months now.

I'd also mention that you probably will NEVER see the above mentioned 40 grams in a container less than TWO gallons. Not that such a container would fit in a PC case. A Cray case or a PDP-11 (would look cool), for example, maybe.
