I am very interested in a plant from nirvana called "short rider". I would prefer to buy some Lowryder, but it is double the price. Pretty much what I am looking for is someone who has grown it (short rider) or seen a fully mature Short Rider plant. Does it autoflower? On nirvana site it says it has the "ability" to autoflower which is kinda sketchy. Also, I need to know how tall it gets because I only have about 2 verticle feet of grow space and I need it to be short. I have googled/yahooed the whole internet trying to find something...I found some grow journal on the site here but it stops like a week into it. Please if anyone knows anything help me I am trying to get growing asap. Please don't copy and paste the info from the nirvana page ive read it 1000 times :shock:

Thanks

i currently am growing auto short rider from nirvana , and advice you not to go with it , it's unstable strain , plants are 50~ days old , showed sex in 3 weeks but there's not a cola production yet, it's producing side buds on the stem every day.Tallest is 80cm , shortest is 35-40cm . see my signature.

I grew nirvana ww fems , i'll do it again after this grow.if this one ends (:

Lowrider works for me... my girl has been amazing..she's been through a lot and still putting out some fine bud... about two weeks from harvest, finally. I planted her in the ground from a four inch pot, she was growing beautifully when my room mate dropped a dime on me to the cops. I pulled her from the soil rather hastily, dropped her in a prepared 5 gal pot and bungied the pot up in some tall bushes until after the cops inspected the property (midnight by search light- the entire yard) I left her in the bushes, where she got great sun for about a month. It was hard to tend to her up there, I got a big grey garbage can, drilled about 80 half in holes in the sides of it and set the 5 gal. pot inside it. I leave it out on the patio now, in full sun... she is doing wonderfully, about 18 inches tall and almost as wide. Nice firm colas and a couple more colas waiting to firm up. Yes, for all my baby has been through, she's proven to be pretty tough... after all .... it is a weed. I've tested a couple of lower buds and am sure I will be happy with the harvest (in a couple more weeks)

Nirvana short ryder is generally pretty short but can grow tall if given the chance, if I were you try nirvana autoflower swiss cheese in 1 gal fabric pots, IMHO swiss cheese can do well in small pots and still a decent yield for size

Back in the day there was only 2 really good autoflowering plants, Top 44, and Shortstuff auto

..Top 44 that flowers in 44 days and my preferred Shortstuff auto that flowers in about 3 weeks,

both are old and many breeders have moved on, it was in the time of trying to get your auto to flower very fast, once germed

those days have passed, and its quality they seek now

Top 44 went into Short Ryder along with Early Special(untried) and ShortStuff auto#1 was crossed to later offer us MI5

IMO, better value out there including the best of the period "Low Ryder" or Northern Lights auto by Breeders Choice.

of all mentioned above Top 44 for taste, ShortStuff for height.. 12-15 inches at best with William Wonder Terpes and flavor

and Low Ryder its bullet proof, and yes all the above are autoflowers,

good luck

Idk if any of you have tried short Ryder lately but man does that shit grow big dense colas :) :) very easy to grow and almost always gives a good yield as long as you have ideal to semi ideal grow conditions,
