Hi all. I will be growing Lowryder #2 from BC Bud. She is an auto flower that finishes 60 days from seed. This is my second go with Lowryder having just finished my first cycle. I average 20 grams/plant from 4 plants. I am not an expert grower by any means, and will be changing a lot of concepts from the first round. This is also my first journal. I’ll do my best.
List of Materials
Hrydrofarm 7x7 square pots.
Jobes Organics (General fert. 4-4-4), and Earth Juice Verde Fire Bloom, Ph up/down/test.
Tappin Roots I work this into my rotation
For dirt I am going to get some organic soil from a nursery in town called Green Acres. Don't have any now and can’t remember the name for the life of me.
My water is coming from fill your own gallon RO machines found at the supermarket. It test constantly >6ppm and ph around 6.5.
My grow space is a 32.5X32.5(inches) tent. Will be using 400w Ballast to start before moving outdoors.
The plants currently in the tent are of unknown strain. I got a seeded sac looking for weed on a road trip and kept the seeds.
The first thing I changed is the way I germinate seeds. I combined two methods I read from Cervantes Marijuana Horticulture Medical Growers Bible (pg 17 in my version), and the FAQ forum
I lined one of those blunt holder/cone holder things with fine sandpaper. Put the seeds in and shock lightly for a couple mins. Then put the seeds in a cup of water over night. The next morning I prepared the jiffy pots. Let them sit in some hot water tell fully expanded. Drained away excess water. Then pinched more water out. By that I mean I squeezed the pot tell water drain out the bottom. Put the seeds in the pots, with just enough dirt to cover them up. Let them rest in a dark closet. That was day one 5/3/14. The following picks were taken today 5/5/2014.

One thing you might keep in mind is that autos shoot a long taproot out fast and can fill those tiny cups in no time! Best bet is to start them in the pot that they will stay in, that might help increase your yield in the long run. Looks good and im along for the ride as this is a strain I was thinking about doing
