How High can a Lowryder go?

Hi all ive been wondering about the size of this lowryder#2 they've been grown side by side for 6 weeks under a 250w hps one is 17" and seems to have stopped growing now and is focusing on buds but the other is topping 30" now and still growing, i was wondering firstly how common this is and what is the real maximum achievable height as description states height from 17 - 19"

That is a big deference. I dont really know what the max is. Maybe your roots stretched too much and are causing a stretchy plant. Lowryder #2 is a lowryder bred with a sativa called santa maria I think so it could just be those sativa genes poling out. I would just bend the top like a super crop to stop the vertical growth and fill it out a bit.

Here's some more pics of the lowryder, shes 62 days old now, 100% cloudy but no ambers, if you think you see them its the pic. shes 17 inches tall the main cola is a bit thicker than the 16oz soda bottle shown and just an inch under the full width of the bottle. The other ladies are comin along, still waiting to see if the yellowing goes away, lost the one in the white pot......Now the thing is I have to leave tomorrow for 3 days and they dont need watering yet, should I water a bit before I leave????? I dont want to come hone to dead plants......and the last pic is another lowryder that is only 34 days old​

man she looks awesome, i doubt she'll be affected to much if its just 3 days as long as you water right before you leave, when i was experimenting on bag seed i had to leave them for a week and they wilted a bit but bounced back turned out to be males anyway, must be hard leavin them so close to harvest though.

Actualy, its good Im leaving her, no chance of getting anxious and chopping her. She still has alot of white hairs so shes still doing her thing, its the younger ones like in the last pic Im worried about leaving. I had one wither and die within 2 days that had multiple branching and many flowers. Then I had one herm on me that was 19 inches at 27 days old. So out of 6 Im down to 4
 
yeah no wonder your worried thats some bad luck i suppose where the autos grow so quick they use there water/nutes just as quick, but if the trips un avoidable then all you can do is give them a good drink as you walk out the door and hope for the best, ill say a few words for em in my bedtime prayers lol

ok..i got 5 lowryder #2 diesels growing now for my first grow. i startedem with a 4 ft t5 and about 10 2000 lumen cfls. their all showing multiple pistols now so im thinking of switching to 400w hps. do u think it would benefit/ hurt me to let them stay under the veg lights a little longer. maybe to get them to stretch some more. or will they do that with the hps?
