personally, i can't for the life of me understand why anyone would want any autoflowering strain.
even if it was the most kick ass weed ever, you can't control it, you can't clone it, not in the sense that you can with a normal strain (and i know that autoflowering is 'normal' for ruderalis strains)
as users and, more importantly, as growers, we should encourage everyone to stay away from these strains. if people don't buy them, breeders will quickly lose interest.
anyway, just my opinion (and you know what they say about opinions)
I think these plants have carved out a special niche in the cannabis world, they're fast growing, high yeilding for their size, and small. These qualities make them invaluable for people with little space indoors or out, and you get your weed sooner than regular MJ.
If you want to propagate, just put a male and female together and get seeds the old fashioned way.

with cloning, you can produce more bud, faster than any autoflowering strain there is.
My understanding, from reading and word of mouth, is that these Lowlife guys have bred popular high potency strains with lowryder, to achieve a decent potency and yield with a small and very speedy plant.
And it seems to be working out. The only people who I've ever read bashing Lowlife (these new cross bred strains) strains are people who haven't tried them.
As for everyone who has tried them, and then posted on the internet about them, they're very pleased with the results.
So, I suggest giving Lowlife a full test drive before slamming it.
think about it man, with a plant that flowers automatically, you can't control it and you can't re-produce it, one seed, one plant.Quote:

a plant without the autoflowering, ruderalis gene can be reproduced innumerable times, one seed, 500 plants, and, they flower when you tell them to. how can you beat that.
hell, ask the master growers what thier opinions are, i'd bet money they agree with me.
i see nothing wrong with autoflowers....... not everyone wants to grow 500 plants and not everyone even has the room......autoflowers are great cuz you can grow year round outside, or if you are limited on space and can only have one grow box you just set the lights at 18/6 and you can plant more seeds and put them in there whenever you harvest some.......or whenever you feel like it. i know these strains aren't for everyone, but they do serve a purpose..........there are pro's and cons.................
I can see where both sides are coming from in some ways yeah they are a bit pointless for a normal grow because you can just flower normal strains as soon as the veg stage starts and get bud in the same time.
I was actually thinking of getting a few diesel riders why? because they can sit in veg under the hps and flower whilst my others are coming along and i will have something to smoke whilst i wait also for outdoor growing they're brilliantly practical they wouldn't be noticed with other plants whearas a five foot budding monstor in your garden may arouse suspicions so theres some good uses but i agree they should not be used as a replacement for cuttings.
When I say sooner than regular MJ Im referring to normal growing, as in it could take 5 months for a regular strain to grow, but lowryders take only 2 months, and not everyone can or wants to run a damn cannabis lab with 20 cuttings of different maturities to keep a continuous flow of bud.Quote:

Look, the seeds aren't expensive (considering they're cannabis seeds). Most seed banks carry them. Buy a pack, grow some, and THEN you can give people your opinions.
Until then, don't hate, appreciate. :D
