Why, Why didn't you just get lowryder 2? Make sure you just leave the lights on 24/7, there is no point in turning them off unless you want less bud, lowryder is an autoflowerer, therefore it fllowers because it is a certain age, there is absolutely no need for a light cycle. I have seen SO MANY PEOEPLE put their autoflower plants on a light cycle, and its just stupid! Dont be another stupid person! (this is one of my pet peeves) Other than that GOOD LUCK...and get lowryder 2 next time, its evolution... Oh, and run a seed crop instead of wasting 70$ every time you grow, theres always lots of males with lowryder so the more you germinate the better! PEACE.
I use a compost but just mix in some dolomite lime to help the pH, working good for me. Also, i know everyone has their own techniques but, even with an autoflowering plant, id do like a 22/2 light cycle. I am a believer that the plants respond well to alittle bit of a night cycle. The results are pretty much the same if not dead exactly the same, but just personal preferance. Plus it kinda sucks to run the HID 24/7.
They seem to be growing just fine at the minute. Infact theyre growing quite rappidly. I have PH adjustment but no tester! that along with my light will be another couple of days. But my closet is good to go. I have a fan blowing to at the minute to give them some strengnth. Id say the largest is about 4 inches tall already. and theyre only 5 days old! Im gonna re-pot them at the end of the week and introduce them to their new home.
Because i liked the idea i could have it in 6 weeks (ish). Im starting some L2's at the end of the month.
