Newbie here at the forum and wanted to say "Hello" to all.
I'm in my 40's and have toked since I was 14 years old.
I have grown before, just bagseeds outside and always like the results.
I joined the forum for some human interaction about some more serious growing for personal consumption. With all these new weeds out there I wanted to grow some with shorter harvest times and there are so many technics to growing it can be overwhelming at first (which do I use?) and this seems to be a very informative bunch. So in leaving I'd like to say "Thanks" in advance and I'm glad to be here, I hope I can contribute to the forum.

Welcome to RIU incognito.
I have a mixed grow going right now and one of the strains that I'm growing is an auto-flowering strain called Lowryder#2. They claim that they go from seed to finish in about 9 weeks. Mine are taking a bit longer than that (they are currently at 10 weeks w/ probably at least 3 to go), but they will still finish long before the others and are looking pretty tasty. The harvest is smaller w/ auto strains, but even outdoors, you could still easily get in 2 harvests a season.
Here is one place that you can buy them from (it's where I got mine): Lowryder seeds
Oh, and I also extend a warm welcome to the other new members on here as well and encourage you all to do some reading in the GrowFAQ as you'll find some very helpful info there.

Thanks for the welcome and the info.

If you are from Wisconsin I hope you are not near any flooded areas. We have had some bad storms lately and lost power for 24 hrs but flooding has got to be the worst that nature can dish out.

Again thanks and I hope all is well.

Hi All Terroricia here from the UK. Growing a couple of plants and am now putting one to try and get it to bud. Am i doing it right by giving it 12 hours of daylight then putting in in complete darkness for the other 12? This is my first grow and i must be doing something right as i got rid of spider mites by reading this website. Thanks for that. Also i have grown this plant on my window sill and by putting it in the garden as ths sun has been gracing itself. Have been doing the 12 hour thing for a week now and so far nothing what am i doing wrong?

Well, 12/12 is the only way to flower your plants. Color filters are not necessary. Some people use color bulbs, but I don't know.

You really should visit the GrowFAQ, it has a LOT of info, and it sounds like you have a lot to read up on.

Hi Torchwood. Another southern UK er here. Welcome

To carry on my previous topic. I have had this plant in 12/12 for 9 days now and nowts happening. Tsk.Tsk. Cept for the plant sulking everytime i put it in darkness. How long do you have to keep this up? Also cant define whether it is female or male as of yet. Can i also get a cutting off of this when i determine sex? Or should i do this now? And then sling it if the original plant turns out to be male

I heard from a friend that if the plant is reaching straight up for the light then it meant something bad. True? What should the plant look like in the first stages of growth.

Give it a couple of weeks of 12/12 and it should be showing pre-flowers. Check "GrowFAQ" at top of page for more detailed information. Good luck mate!
