    Hi. Just wondered what is better for growing lowryders, 18 hrs of light a day or 24 hrs. I know 24 hrs is more expensive, but will it produce better yield?

    Sorry my man never tangled with them (one day maybe :) ). The forum at ICmag.com has a few folk that have probably grown them.

    Don't worry about yield you really just want to have success for the first go round. To me 18 hrs is fine for hids and 24 for flos. Yield is a toughie to estimate. People have grown em like christmas trees others like bushes. The difference is the # of plants but the end result is usually close - it depends on how much you like to sit and trim ;)
