auto-flowering strains eg. Lowryder#2

hey all, i finally got some seeds and they are Lowryder#2 auto-flowering.

i specifically chose this strain becuase i think its what suits me best in my situation. but i have a couple questions about it.

i want to just start with 1 plant and have that as the mother until its big enough to take around 6-8 clones from it and just keep doing that when i need to.

1. do i have to keep the mother separate becuase it will be under longer light so it wont flower?

2. i dont know much about the auto-flowering plants so how much light should it stay under, becuase im thinking it will just flower no matter what becuase its auto.

so bascially i want to have a auto-flowering mother which never flowers... is that possible.



sorry if im confusing people but thanks for any help!

Sorry but i don't think it's possible well it maybe is but there isn't really much point when you can go from seed to harvest in about 9 weeks. So most people don't bother just easiser to germ a new seed i think. Plus not sure if you can stop an autoflowering plant from flowering. Don't think it's been done yet if i remember right! Think thats right!

won't work. have to breed for seeds.
clone have the same maturity of the mother. you might gain a week or too for the rooting. but if you try, let us know the outcome.

autoflowering is just that. it flowers no matter what the light schedule.

germ and grow what you got males show about 18days..females about 3-4 days later..pick a good male and good female and breed them.. then you will have lots of seed...i put my light on for 18hrs,6 hrs off

thanks guys, i thought it would be hard/weird to try and stop autos from flowering.

i might do that weezer and read up more about the breeding process. however will i lose consistency when breeding both male & female lowryders?

Just pick your best Male and Female, that's all you can do really.
There's absolutely no way you can clone them.
I lightly pollenated some but haven't planted any seeds as yet, so I only know what I can't do so far.
Good Luck.

you cant clone autoflowering plants sorry dude. They are 1 hit plants with no vegging time, the best u hcan hope for is to top them once or fim them if ya good. I grew nycd lowrydewrs last grow check out my signiture for details dude

kinda sucks in a way i guess by not being able to clone them but they are pretty quick plants so im not going to be complaining, thanks guys.

having grown them i dont think ill buy any more seeds, Your only really saving 3 or 4 weeks on a 12/12 strain but only get half the yeild if ya lucky. They are a novelty and not to be taken too seriously imho

I think they might be worth it. Make a s-load o seeds and do a outdoor guerrilla grow. (I haven't grown them, but kinda want to for some odd reason.)

smaller yield yes.
ounce to 1 1/2in 9 weeks [2 months].. and the fact that they can be hidden
so easy is great ...there are pros and cons ..but i think the pro out wiegh the cons....to each thier own..

i agree they would be great for gorilla grows and to fill in space that would be redundant.
