Autoflower- Lowryder questions

hey all!
getting ready to start my 1st grow...and just a quick question about Lowryder plants.

with the light times how many hourse would every1 recommend ?
because of the plant being a auto flower strain is it nessasary to do 12/12 or should i just go 18/6 from beggining ? sead to harvest?

what/if any nuts do u all recommend using! i want somthing as simple n cheap as possible...could you guys possibly list some sites avalible to purchuse of?

i will most probably be running a 250w HPS but am still deciding...on maybe getting 1 that i can use both MH & HPS..in soil as this will be my first grow....

thanks all

I also wanna know this, subscribed to the thread.

I started mine by the window for a week then under the hps on a 18/6 cycle.

man since lowryder2 and lowryder are autoflowering id go with 18/6 as a light schedule untill the plants slow their growth and start budding more than adding height then cut the light hours down by 2 or so.

You can also go 24 hrs until your ready to flower. If you want to hurry things along. Cfl are ok but when you flower go hps. If you can afford it. Make sure you can ventalate area your using. HPS put off some heat. Good luck.

I am going to use a 20/4 light schedule for my LR2s. I think that's what lowlife tells their customers to do...

The Joint Doctor has a guide for you.

lowryder grow guide

I am on a 18/6 with 2 in hydro and 3 in soil....3 of the 5 have sprouted (just yesterday) and are doing really well....id listen to the guy who invented the strain.
He says 18/6 all the way thru for max yeild. He also says advanced nutes. I am using Foxfarm 3 part and a carb booster for the last 2 weeks.
Good luck.

Edit: thats 18/6 on 600w MH and will switch to 18/6 600w HPS at first signs of flower. I am devoting this grow to a seed grow, so male plants will not be pulled.

I DO not know if my plant is lowryder strain or not but is definatley budding under 24 hour lighting.I have 5 other plants under same lights should I seperate them ,or keep things as is.

where did you get them? clone or seeds? any way to post pics? without those we cant really tell you for sure. they may be just showing pre-flowers like all plants eventually do.

i started them in the flower room right away at 12 12 .

Lowryder are auto flowing plants i would go on a 20/24 hour flower cycle. For nutes keep them low then slowly add more pay attention to what your plant is telling you and you will have success.

what is a 20/24 hour flower cycle.... could you explain this to me?


hahahaa

come by for a visit pimp.

you know i will....just dont flake on me when i do.


and ayo, i got a thread, look me up...and reply...need some answers! put that stoner brain to work!

From what iv seen with my brothers plants. Is that the shorter the light cycle the quicker the plant is to finish. I know it sounds weird, you would think that more light=faster. But not with LR. I recommend 20/4 for best results and time.
