My 1st grow (Lowrider)

[Ptbo_Stonerz]

They are "autoflowering" plants, they quit veg after about 17-20 days for males and 21-25 for females. they grow from seed to bud in approx 60 days. The male showed sex about 30 days ago and the females about 15. The females are younger than the male by about 15 days. the females have around 35-40 days to harvest. I plan on seeding one of my females as they say lowriders cant be cloned.

Your ladies are looking great. I'm not really sure about the pollen thing but i would have to say when you start seeing the pods open it's time to collect the pollen.

 

[Ptbo_Stonerz]

If I put a clear plastic bag over the male so the pollen cant fly away, will the plant still grow? i want to collect the pollen but i dont want it to affect any females that may be in the area.

 

[LdyLunatic]

heres what to do

take your male stalks and cut them....place them in some water in cups...AWAY from your ladies

as the branches die the pollen is released from the sacks...make sure you have something under to collect the falling pollen

heres a few pics to illustrate

DO NOT leave any pollen husks in your pollen that you are hoping to store....they contain moistureand moisture kills the pollen

store pollen in a cool dry place for no more than 30 days...it only remains viable for about that time

best if used right away

Glad to be back online! So i took more pics of my lowriders but i have to resize them, i've been messing with the resizing for 2 hours now and have only been able to resize 2 pics of my bro's AK-47 clones. Once i resize my lowrider pics ill post them. I collected pollen from my male and pollenated 1 female the other day. All 3 lowriders are starting to bud, they smell kinda like a musty orange, I've never smelt anything like them.

here is a pic of the Lowrider my bro grew. Its only about 3 inches but its a solid bud. Probably gonna be 3.5 G dry wieght. I included this pic because i think its kinda funny, this is the smallest buding plant i have ever seen.

 

[Ptbo_Stonerz]

finally got 2 resized. The middle one is pregnant, or so i hope. I dont think i did anything wrong when pollenating her but i guess i'm just gonna have to wait to see if she produces seed for me.

Hey Ptbo, those are some nice happy&healthy lookin plants man, keep up the great work!

 

[Ptbo_Stonerz]

Here are some more pics. The last pic, the plant looks wierd, I think its a mutant but i'm gonna let her grow anyway.

And lastly my best lowrider of the 3.

 

[THE BROTHER'S GRUNT]

Whats up Ptbo. The ladies are nice and green, very bushy and looking great. I hope your one female got pregnant for ya. Nothing like free seeds. I like your bro's little lowryder it's killer. Anyway your grow looks great man be sure to keep us updated with pics.

 

[Ptbo_Stonerz]

Does anyone know how llong i should wait before i put clones in the same spot i recently had a male, the male lowrider i grew for pollen, when i cut him down some pollen did go into the air. How long will the pollen be able to affect females in the same field? Also how long should i wait before spraying the female i pollenated with water or follier feeding to not damage the pollen?

 

[Ptbo_Stonerz]

So i decider to try some LST on 1 of my Lowriders. This is also the 1 I pollenated. There wasnt much light getting to the middle of the plant so I opened her up a bit. Im also using DNF bloom A & B and DNF Bud Fortifier. The bud sites have doubled both in amount and size with just 1 feeding with the Bloom Fortifier added. The 1st pic is befor the LST, 2nd pic after LST.

 

[Ptbo_Stonerz]

here are some more pics, theese show the size better. the last pic is a lowrider that i topped, apparently this is not a good idea with lowrider as you can see from how its growing now. i put her outside for better light to see if it helps her fill out better.

Hey there Ptbo, those are some very happy&healthy lookin plants, keep up the good work man!

 

[LdyLunatic]

looking good.....nice and tight

 

[GreenDayGirl]

Ok PS...so I thought I'd drop in on your thread and check out your girls. I'm seriously leaning towards the thought that my BBofB just might be the same or close to yours. My camera phone just does'nt do them the justice they deserve. Your ladies are looking quite nice

 

[Ptbo_Stonerz]

Wow theese lowriders grow fast if ya dont mess with them. It could be the bud fortifier im using but as this is my first grow i cant say for sure. I dont have any pics of the 1 i toped and put outside but it hasnt really done much. Its got about 20 budsites but they are so small. She is the same age as the other 2, she was growing at about the same pace, i toped her and blam growth seemed to stop, I'll know for next time not to top a lowrider. My cam doesnt realy do my girls any justice as its only a 2.0 mega pix. the bud is filling out great on both girls i got under the flouros. I can barely see into the center stem they are so thick with branches and budsites.

The 1 i polinated is doing great, she's the wider 1, more branches. I was wondering tho if or when i will be able to tell if she is making seeds, also when i harvest her is there anything special i need to do to collect the seeds and how long do i need to wait befor i plant them?

The last pic is of the last lowrider seed i had, i got lucky 11 seeds in a 10 pack, hope its female. The ratio was 4 females 3 males 2 didnt germ and 2 still sprouts, 2 week since planting. none were germinated just put directly into soil.

Whats up PS. Your ladies are looking great. I love that strain. Like you said they look real tight and bushy. Great job man.
