Lowryder

Just wondering if anyone has had any experience growing these seeds (or others similar) as advertised on this website.

The main thing about them is the very short harvest time as apposed to the more regular seeds. 9 weeks seems to be very fast and I am wondering if this would reduce the THC content in the final product...or the overall end result (e.g taste) would be greatly different to what you would normally expect.

Anyway...any feedback would be appreciated.

We have been smoking this recently, a mate of a mate grew it he says the 9 weeks is not long enough he left it for 11 weeks and a damn fine smoke, hope this helps.

Mixed views about this.

Grown it 2 times now, 1st time not so good but good for making hash with.

2nd time i took more time curing it etc and it was a good smoke. Althou i would say that some of the stuff ' available' from other sources i can get my hands on is far supeior to the lowryder buds.

There is a product called (deseil ryder) which is the low ryder crossed with Somas deseil. Got mine on order as i type!

Thanks for the feedback. Still unsure whether to give it a go....but I guess it can't hurt trying it out.

Won't be doing it until the summer (july/august) so have some time to decide yet.

I've heard Lowryder ain't the strongest, but is good for very limited space.

Strongest what? strength? I grew a couple of Lowryder 2 feminised a while back, one didn't grow very well but that might have been down to me but the other was a damn good smoke, very fruity flavoured and very strong in a sit on your ass and stay there stone.

Valo I plan on getting some out in the next week or 2, I wouldn't leave it until july/august if I was you , maybe the end of June at the latest.

This is the one that did go well, couple of days before chopping:

Is this because of weather wise? I was planning on doing them under lights if that sounded a good idea. I (or my dad to be precise) actually already have some Violater Kush growing right now that are about 4 or 5 weeks away from cutting down - by which time I will be living back in the UK

I thought of these due to the limited space that my wardrobe has.

Love the pic though, think that has just made my mind up.

Yes Valo because of the weather, some take an extra week or 2 to finish which would take you too far into Autumn imo, I've just put 3 seeds to crack this morning, I'll leave them on the windowsill for a week or so then put them outside during the day and in at night for a week so they get used to the cold, then they'll be staying out for the duration.

Couple of pints, they need big pots otherwise the roots will be restricted which will stunt the growth and if you put them under lights I'm led to believe they dont mind being put under 24 hrs worth of light for the whole time.

No not yet, I did see a decent looking grow diary on Homegrown 420 that looked interesting.

The only issue i found was they STINK!!! so a good ventilation system or understanding neighbours is a must. As i live in a student town ive got understanding neighbours but dunno wot your situation is.

Also occansionly one plant may grow to the size of a mid sized indica plant. This can be a bummer if your going for a secret grow, but i personally found it to be a bit kick ass as it was auto flowering but bigger so it equaled more bud.

Treat them as your normal lowryders and it sould be happy days.
