should i take off the male parts.
no no no the "seed" looking things might just be part of the bud... some more pics would be better.
its male I'd just kill it... those are pollen sacs that are about to burst with pollen and any nearby females will be ruined...
are u shure it has hair all over it...
Its hermaphrodite... I would kill it... Hermaphrodites are just as bad as males...
if it keeps growing its just gona harvest real shitty seedy mids right? or will it not be smokeable
Id say the buds would be tiny and full of seeds... you may get something... but any other females you have will be pollenated too and they will make seeds. Thus shitty weed thats half seed, half green.
you could sell the hermie to someone...
give us a lowryder update man :thumbsup:
did he die?

ummm... this is the first time ive read this thread and just wanted to point out, the 'pedals' turning yellow and shrivelling up is not a defficiency of any kind, all plants do this, those first round leaves (cotyledons) actually store all the nutes needed to take it through the seedling stage, and will die at adolescence, there is nothing to worry about, oh yeh, nice plants man ;) lowryders are cool plants...
I have a hermie among three females and just took some tweezers and plucked the "balls" off it. I freaked when I first saw it and searched the threads here for a solution. It doesn't make any sense to throw out a perfectly good plant just because it grows a few nubs. So far the plant I castrated still looks like the other two. I'm keeping a close eye on it until I cut them down.
get a lamp just a desk lamp will do and put them under that i think that might be hot enough
sorry i was talkin about the end of the first page my mistake
ITs best to kill hermies because they will pollenate your females and the seeds that they make are no good... Its possible to take all the balls but you'd have to pay very close attention... A few days of neglect will make your buds full of seeds
Time to go indo! Get some cfl's and a timer.
opps, i did the same thing as fukinfedup. sry!
what happened to him, Im getting some lowryders soon, and gonna grow them big ass.
His lowryders were very yellowish compared to mine which are a dark green color. Just something I noticed.
your lowryders look aweful. you should never grow plants in a clear container..... or one that will let light hit the roots. this will stunt growth and cause molding. if you grow lowryder again start them off in at least a one gallon pot. they don't get more than two feet tall out doors but this is all determined by how much root space you give them. i am growin lr2 right now. my latest batch is 8 days old and on there third set of true leave. i'm growing in dirt using distilled water. when you grow lr you SHOULD NOT FERTILIZE in the first couple of weeks. the plant will carry the nutrients it needs in the "round" leaves (the first set, not true leaves). if these turn yellow and fall off in the first couple of weeks you can fertilize, but i never use more than 1/8th strenght for the first application. (i use b.c. boost and growth) continue fertalizing at 1/4 strenght then 1/2 untill the third week, you should be able to sex them at the end of the third week or within a few days either way. i let mine continue to flower for a week and then start them on 1/2 strenght blooming fertilizer (i use b.c. boost and bloom and add awesome blossom and kick it to full strenght for the seventh and eighth weeks, flushing weeks nine and ten. why wait ten weeks for less than an ounce????
:hippy:
