Hi =)
I am about to start growing some Lowryders 2 but i just had a couple questions about the process.
I know this strain is an auto-flowering kind .. but do i need to move it to an HPS once it starts to show preflowers? and it takes about 3 weeks give or take from seed to start to show flowers if i understood correctly..?
what if i decided to leave them under my CFLs during the whole flowering cycle.. would that affect the yield tremendously?
thanks =)

nobodys answering me *cry*
i do nknow that lowryder for me had no high in it what so ever none nada .but i think you are rushing the process.are you growing in soil or hydro?
hey =)
well im growing in soil... but not a newbie to growing
as far as the potency of the LR ive heard good and bad things about it but id like to see for myself what its like.
ill be growing some NLs also so it wont be a complete waste of time...
just wanted to know whether itd be less stressful on these plants to keep them under cfls or to move them to a more poweful light. read some positive experience about flowering under cfls... but still thinking that it might be better under an HPS...
any advice?
It will do better under an hps. IMO, I'd wait maybe a week or 2 after the preflowers show before moving it to hps because there is still alot of veg growth even after the preflowers show. I'd move it at week 4 or 4 1/2. It is also recommended to use a light schedule of 18/6 the whole way through. I have heard of people placing LR2 or LR in their flower room at 12/12 but have never heard good results from them.
Make sure you have LR close enough to the HPS if your flowering with your NL.
As for the high, expect to smoke a little more and a little more often with LR2. What I mean by this is, smoke a bowl.....and chill for a little bit, maybe 45 minutes then when it feels like its wearing off, smoke a few more hits and I've found the high to be longer lasting from the second smoke session. The high is short if you take a few hits and quit. You will be high off a few hits but not for long. Either way, it won't compare to your NL, but you get pretty good smoke from it. :stoned:
Thanks for the advice Balkey.. =)
im actually going to be moving the LR2 to the flowering room way before the NL's since i will be cloning those and vegging them for awhile.
its ok if the LR2 doesnt get me as high as other strains. i like to have different variety of smoke for different occasions!
thanks again
I don't understand why anyone would ever want to grow Lowrider it gets the lowest reviews has potency of mid grade and record low yields. The only reason to grow it would be that your state has banned light timers and you have to grow in 24/0. LR is 1/4 maby more ruderals that barley have %1 THC. If you want a quick harvest just put some bagseed right in the flowering room.
Spoken from someone who has no experience with it probably. For starters, you could place LR or any Low version in your veg room and get bud off it. You can't say that for your other plants. Takes only 2 months from seed to harvest. Requires little space to grow, so for small spaces its nice. If you were to place a seed right into flower the yields would be the same as a regular LR plant. A noob, can get an ounce from LR2 easily (I did).Quote:

Bluntwiz, let us know how it all goes. :stoned:
