What is a lowryder?

Yea, yea complete noob question but I have yet to find an answer. To cut to the chase I am simply wondering, what is a lowryder? I'm gathering that it is some small, bushy type plant? Does it grow faster than most or something? What are the advantages and disadvantages of it?

Thanks,

They are auto flowering. Meaning you don't have to change the light cycle to make them flower. This is achieved by crossing ruderalis with regular cannabis. They cannot be cloned and must be grown from seed. Not quite as strong as top quality regular genetics but not bad either. Just plant them and 8 or 9 weeks later you have bud. About an ounce per plant seems to be the yield but you can put a lot of em under the light cause they stay fairly small.

Also auto flower strains arent as potent as others, rudalis takes away from it.
The good thing is they like to flower under 18/6
but I wouldnt bother, low yield and content doesn't suit me.

Ohh welcome to RIU btw man!
Happy growin!
