Nice start....kinda thought they'd be a bit larger by now...but looks good. The Lowryders are a fav auto for years now for it's stability and potent yeilds (if harvested correctly)...have a few onyx going myself right now....

Nice! Been waiting for some 1 to do 10+ auto plants with a 400 to see what it yields are they fem or reg .what size is the grow aera?

Would of been larger if i had more cfls for the first 2wks, but i had to do with what i had at the time.

I've seen some lovely harvests with the lowryders and also the resin factor looks top notch too, with my experience i should have some ultra resin lowryders soon. Onyx is great, only grown her once before under 500w cfls & on a 12/12 light cycle 15.6g dry yield, hoping for a lot more this time round with a 400w hps on 24/7 and better experience thank you anyway and please enjoy the ride.

I'll find a picture of the onyx for you.

Was 18 but 2 LR didn't germ or sprouted.

Onyx females for sure and well the 10 LRs the guy said they were females.. ya never know, there is 1 odd freak could be male.. hope for none though.

2ft wide and under 5ft high i think.

Reason why I'm not stretching them.. size of tent & size of pots

2ft wide how long

i know but lowryders are small and will be done in 6wks time, then the onyxs can get transplanted into bigger pots and have 5/6wks more light for them to bud bigger... i think i got it sussed.

Next picture update on Monday,
Big Picture of Day 16

Ok here is a chart for both the LR & OX..

Onyxs


Lowryders


Key box


Now onto the Freak, i was smoking some w33d when i realized there was a seed among the buds, the w33d itself was Lemon Haze, all i can remember is maybe i placed that nice looking brown seed into my lowryder bag haha stoner times... so anyway i thought it was a lemon haze the freak to conclude, so i rubbed my thumb on 1 of the leafs to smell and to my surprise it was lemon lemon smell, so now i have only 9 LRs, will grow the haze for 2more weeks then i'll switch her to 12/12 at somewhere else for a week to find out the sex...

The autos are doing ok, maybe week 4 for sexing hmmmm? do you think i should start the bloom feeding now?

Ok Last update till Monday

Day 19,

To be honest i know their small for age, could be transplanted to early and shocked them alil, maybe hps up too early, rising temps maybe upto 87F... could be 24hrs of straight light, without no dark for sleep to rest their minds haha i'll let you guys/girls decide on that 1..

3out of9 Lowryders are females so far, no males as of yet good signs.

They getting much bigger too & starting to smell a bit, lowryder are kinda skunky & onyx is always a fine diesel smell. Onyx don't like heat so we've had to add domes to the onyxs.. Lowryders on the other hand seem to love the heat!

Update Monday.

hey man i had alot of the same probs (temp, LARGE pots, and def humidity) when i was vegging in hps but they will eat it up and get huge is u can control that humidity at thet stage. i had to build a plywood box lined w foil and pulled a piece of painters plastic over it(greenhouse effect) and that helped ALOT. check my thread all my sativas r well over 3 ft at day 5 flower (28 day veg) hps is they way to go in my opinion, maybe not the most efficient but the results r insane! good luck man and happy growin

Nice advice

Atm the temps are 86F through the day and 80F at night... fans running 24/7 so are lights... we have now heighten up the hps all the way to the top to make the plants stretch now, hoping for good results in 5 days if not I'll be pissed haha... they will grow bigger in time i hope.. wish i added the hps up on day 11 but the seedlings might of said fuck you and keel over on me.. plus the onyxs are heat sensitive so my guess is they will love the light being far away, breather for them etc..

The hairs on 8/9 Lowryders are a lovely white color, have heard someone on day 25 on another forum that they have whites hairs turning red very quickly, i'm guessing i'm glad mines slow and still white atm!! lovely smell though.

I give the plants in total of 4ltrs of water every 2 days and 2ltrs every other day..

so its like under a quarter ltr for each plant, i should maybe start adding more maybe? maybe give them a really good soaking once a week?

this could be my problem? they are very dry every day hence why i'm starting watering them every day now..

What should my humidity be atm? day 27 autos and in flowering..? atm its around 20% to 35% when watered it goes up natural could they be drying out on me? the leafs are sometime very dry looking but still green.

All the plants seem to be small and bushy with lots of nodes cramped at the top in a 1/2inch size... so at least i'll get compact colas and not popcorn buds if they had stretched shit loads at the beginning, whats your intake on that?

well to start with ur temps r alittle high. i run about 86-88 at canopy day, night about 70 ish this gives them time to re coupe. and i kept my rh at pot height at about 65-75% in veg and flower it should be between 40-60% mines usually 45% day, 55% night but i think im gonna start trying to keep it at 40% as the buds swell so i dont have mold issues. im not pos (im still new too) but i dont think u should be introducing (misting) any extra water during flower because mold. i pull about 10 gal a day from my room through a dehumidifier at about day 13 of flower and by harvest ill prob be pulling just at or over a gal per plant. (theoretically) im not super informed on the streaching part but my grow shop guy is awesome and he helped me build a system that allows me to have my lights very close to my canopy(12-16'' and my 3000w stay cold to the touch after 12 hrs) so i havent really noticed much streach just max. penitration through the canopys. r u rinning a sealed hood? do u have an in-line fan drawing air out?
