im really into these autoflowering strains, especially LR2. How many plants did you need to grow to get the 1zip yield?

supposing that i use the same lightening, what size pot would you suspect i would need to get an oz per plant of LR2?? 1 gallon??

can you explain your reasoning in thinking this?
I was under the assumption that the more room for the roots to go, means the more they will. and you just said that the taproot is the critical one on these plants.
How do outdoor Lr'2 grows turn out so well if this is true? There is no pot being used then, just limitless space for the roots to grow
Because if you start lowryders in a very big container they won't be getting enough water and the root system will take longer to develop through the soil where as if you put them in a small container and slowly transplant them as they go I guarantee it will be better, also because they only last about 60 days putting them in massive containers is not practicle as they will need time to adjust and this will slow down your growth and budding. I'm no expert just going from expierience.

okay i can kinda feel what your saying there. I was planning on starting some in a 1 gallon pot and then once they take off well, move them to a 2-3 gallon pot as to give them as much room as possible. Thanks for takding the time to answer my questions though.
Well heres what I do but I grow indoors so outdoors may be a little differant.
Start in a 1-2 liter pot, allow them to grow to about 21-25 days in them, by now your roots are developed and strong enough for a transplant, once they show sex transplant the females straight away into bigger 3-5 litre pots (This saves you soil on the males and space) I haven't found them to suffer from shock and they should start bulking up and out right away usually reaching about a foot and a half maybe two feet in them pots which they should finish in with a strong healthy root system. You can check out my grow journal below might find some more info if you need it.

okay I appreciate that a lot too man, you just start ot with a smaller pot than i was thinking of using to start them in. I was actually going to be starting them in dixie cups until they got strong and cut away the cup to put them in 1 gallon pots, then @ about 30days move them to the 3 or 5 gallon containers.
Im not sure what size a liter is though...Like would a 2 liter drink bottle be about the amount of soil you start them in

i see where your coming from there, for me i would rather wait the extra time for the plant to fill out the 2 gallon pot.
ive heard some good things about lowryder when give more room to grow.
i know from experience that some mary jane plants do so much better when you give them a "bigger " pot that allows them to fully grow to there max size.
ill wait the extra time, but im sure the yield will be worth it.

with lowryder your going to have 11 weeks to do what your going to do before they finish. They dont have a veg stage so you dont control when they flower or how big they get.
If youve had plants that stopped growing when they filled up the pot you have problems with something...My plants dont get root bound no matter what size pot they are in.

Hey Im gonna order som diesel ryder from dr and I noticed strains like the auto ak-47 they said to put it on a 20/4 light schedule. I was wondering with the diesel amd lw2 do u use a 24/0 schedule and switch to 12/12 or stay 24/0 all the way through flowering. what are u guys useing to grow to get the maximum yield.

Most people find that the 18(light)/6(dark) hr light schedule recommended by most seed banks producing it, works best for optimum results. Not started my lr2 grow yet though...
the auto-ak takes a bit longer but it looks more potent and more flavor full.
The lr2 is cheaper and is a faster producer... It all depends on what you want and what is top priority.
people who like quanity more would prob like lr2 because although not much shorter flowering time, it could be used to make a outdoor or indoor mad gurilla prepetual harvest, some shit like that.
but quality would prob be better with the auto-ak, although Ive never tried either, YET...

id say either "big bad john" or the auto ak by the look of the crystals on the plant.
Pukka Seeds | Cannabis Seeds | The Doggies Nuts Cannabis Seeds | Big Bad John (auto flowering)
Automatic AK 47 - Lowlife Seeds
but i aint tried either yet myself

thats awesome this strain is like the largest organism in the world that group of trees in oregon, or washington... that shit seeds and buds...
if i had massive growing room , i would by big john and just let it go to town...1 year you would have at least 64 plants.
pretty cool for the commercial grower that wants to be able to up price with "just-cause" and still have massive supply.
