Okay, I have no idea how the pollenation process works at all and it would be great to be enlightened upon the subject of such. Does the female after being pollenated produce only seeds? If so how many? Just looking for a few good answers :thumbsup:
hey there markass.. i have growin lowryder twice.. i must say its a joy to grow they look so pretty.. yes 8-9weeks seed to bud... lr was my first grow i had 4 and yieded 1oz each give or take a gram... i wasnt happy with the taste of my buds .. but on my 2nd go with proper ferts soil more knolege i grew them better and the taste was lote better.. but as im a heavy smoker the high wasnt great for me... but some say they get very high from lowryder.. so give it a go ... yes if you pollenate a female with a male you will get seeds in your buds.. how many depends on how much of the plant is pollenated.. for instance if you only want a few seeds.. find your male take him out of the grow room place him some where else then he should release pollen within bout 2weeks after showing sex.. get the pollen and use a paint brush and paint a few bud sites with pollen.. then theres your few seeds. if you want lots of seeds then let the male pollenate the whole female... you will have hundreds.. but if you have more then 1 girl and dont want them all polenated i would sergest you plase your female you wish to pollenate and your male in another room so when the male releases his pollen it doesnt get on them.. or you could cover the plant with a plastic bag with wholes in.. but i woulsnt recemend that.. i would recemend putting your plants on a 18/6 light cycle..hope that helped you out some.. heres a lil pic of 2 lowryders at harvest on 12/12 light cycle they yielded bout half ounce each in only 65days from seed
