seeing as lowryder can sprout and flourish in the arctic soncitions could i plant these all year round in uk outside? if i done loads then getting a small amount from each one would not be so bad.
alas this thread is a sad one :( for sum reason after allready know about my plants for 2 weeks she decides to flip out when its just getting into full veg so i have had to move them to a friends house not to far away. even though i know their safe im sad because i cant spray and love my babes as much as i wish. also this will mean the experiment of early flowering will be dissmissed as it is not practicall at current arrangments. so now im hanging my head in shame does this make me a sell out, a failed horticultralist or just a sort of effecient guerilla growing?\
why after 2 weeks of know does my mum choose to flip out now? wierdo's i cant beleive we're related lol.
but ill plant lowryder in secure spots if it can live sumone please help me out im feel dryer then ghandi's flipflop. :(

i found this info on lowryder:
What does this mean for the grower ?
Indoors
No need for 2 growrooms - one set of lights, 20 hrs a day ensures fast growth through to harvest
Low profile - you can keep the verticle spacing between the lights and buds to a minimum, just like a scrog.
6 or 7 harvest a year
or continuous harvesting - easy under the single growroom.
Good annual production - well you would, with than number of harvests!
Outdoors
plant as late as end August and still get a crop in
Multiple harvest per year
Great for stealthy planting
Small plants, good for patio container garden, windowsills etc
Good for cold, low light climates
Harvest date is not fixed by the daylight length
Downsides - not that many. You will have problems with cuttings. Unlikely to root as the plant is in flowering mode all it's life, so you will have to buy seeds.
This is what the breeders say...
"Joint Doctors Lowryder Newly released to the world, this unique variety will dramatically expand the range of possibilities for aspiring, amateur and professional Cannabis growers and breeders.
Newly released to the world, this unique variety will dramatically expand the range of possibilities for aspiring, amateur and professional Cannabis growers and breeders. Aptly named for its low profile (both literally and figuratively), Lowryder was developed for extreme rapid growth (8-9 weeks from seed to bud!), uniquely short height (will grow no taller than 12 in!), and amazing versatility.
Passing directly from the seedling to the flowering stage, Lowryder altogether does away with the vegetative growth stage. In other words, you plant it, it sprouts, grows a set of leaves, then immediately and automatically begins flowering. As a result, it is the quickest, most compact, and most easily concealed plant available.
Indoors, Lowryder completely eliminates the need to induce flowering by reduction of daylight hours; indeed, it eliminates the need for a timer, period. Yes, it will grow consistently well and finish under 24 hours of light, from sprouting to harvest, in eight weeks. You can achieve similar results with 18 or 12 hours of light per day, if you like to give your room time to cool down, for example - 18 hours straight through until harvest is recommended.
The point is, with Lowryder, there is no need for a change in the light period to induce flowering, nor is it necessary to have separate vegetative and flowering rooms.
Outdoors, Lowryder can easily be kept concealed because of its tiny size and early flowering, whether planted in fields, in gardens, on patios or even on windowsills.
When planted in the spring, it will produce ripe bud earlier than any available variety. It can be planted, grown and harvested several times per season (in oneâ??s backyard for instance ;-)), without attracting undue attention.
Due to its lightning-fast life cycle (8-9 weeks), Lowryder can be planted up to early August. It can be easily and successfully grown in the most unlikely locations, from Alaska and Canadaâ??s Arctic (Lowryder will flower and finish in the continuous light of Arctic summers) to the urban apartment balconies of the world!
Having no vegetative stage, Lowryder canâ??t be cloned or regenerated, for all intents and purposes. Replanting seeds is a must. But then, this plantâ??s unique advantages do away with any reason for cloning in the first place.
In any case, seeds are much easier to transport and handle and have a higher success rate. To complement its unique characteristics, Lowryderâ??s final appearance, taste, and high, have nothing to envy of the finer weed varieties, an excellent smoke with high potency and amazing resin production. You almost have to see it grow before your own eyes to believe it, but the proof is here.
Lowryder is 100% stable and reliable in its properties, a product of nine generations of selective breeding, and is non-deviant and hermaphrodite-free.
Lowryder claims direct descendance from superior Williamâ??s Wonder and Northern Lights no.2 Indica, while keeping the identity of its third, more exotic Ruderalis-type ancestor a secret.
Lowryderâ??s unique genetic and practical advantages insure that it will find an important niche in the world of fine Cannabis.
good in cold low light conditions?

Nice edit with the red lettering.. i thought i missed that the first time.
Frozen Ground = No Plant
