No, you misread his post. He said one was LR2 and the other a generic sativa (meaning a regular plant).

Just a tip for next time, slip any seeds for storage in the fridge. Use a film canister. Keeps them safe and ...ahem...where u can find them ltr...:mrgreen:

Ahhhh I see, my bad on that one. I just saw how tall & "budless" the ones were in the pics and didnt read the post carefully enough, thanks for the correction CrackerJax!

Oh and great tip on storing seeds, I was unsure about where & how to store them. I guess cold temps dont affect them much eh? After all, they do live through winter in the wild lol. And yeah I accidentally threw a bag with like 20 Apollo11/Green Giant seeds in it away last week, and thank GOD I didnt take the trash out before I realized they were missing, they are back in my possession and in a marked pill bottle now lol.

i started germing my diesel ryder seeds on wednesday around 4 pm, and by 2 am on thursday, 3 of them were all ready to go. and since then 3 more have been ready. i still have 4 more germinating. all the seeds looked nice and mature when they came in the mail. im hoping most of the other ones will be ready when i wake up in the morning. anyone know how long i should wait on the seeds to just give up on them? i have had seeds that take as long as 4 days to germinate before, but i put the diesel ryder seeds on top of my cable box to keep them a bit warm. any tips would be great. ill write how many are left still not ready in the morning when i wake up. kolorblind, i would love to see pics of your ladies right before u chop them down and then more pics after theyre trimmed and dried. if you cant do that i understand, but it just makes me so happy to know thats what ill have in only 2 months
if my grow with these go well, i am going to buy like 20 or 30 more autoflower seeds and pollinate 1 or 2 females of each stain i grow.

Anybody hav any AUTOFLOWERS that didnt autoflower? I do... Right now it is 4 weeks in to flowering but i vegged it for 2 months. wierd huh.... The strain was just LOWRYDER 2, from attitude seedbank. Ive had a few posts about this and some other people experienced similar problems... But unlike theirs my Lowryder 2 is now 3 feet tall.

Haha, you're so funny man, I'm the same way. Pot plant pics are like another form of porn for me :) Keep one thing in mind though, these ladies are pretty stunted. They were kept in 16oz cups for a month and the pots I have them in are translucent, which is really bad for root growth. Ive seen this same strain get about 2ft tall before, its all about the conditions.

I put the girls in my bedroom closet and blocked out all light using a lightproof curtain I installed for my first grow attempt in my closet. The temp is roughly 68-70F and the humidity is 58%, should be PERFECT for drying as well. I plan to leave them in here for 48 hours in their pots, then I will chop em & hang them upside down for 5-8 days. Here are some pics:

Carmen on the left, Regina on the right. My drink of choice for a size reference. Carmen is 5 & 3/4 inches tall, Regina is 6 & 3/4 inches tall.

Here are some shots of my other Diesel Ryders I started. Out of 6, 4 ended up male & 2 were female. The amazing thing is that they all showed sex on the same day at only 15 days old!! Pics of the males are from day 16 just before they got the chop. The pics of the females are from today, day 18.

Here are the males

A closeup of the 2 with the most pollen sacs, crazy for only 16 days old.


The girls, Daria on the left and Ellie May on the right.

I germinated 4 more Diesel Ryder seeds due to the low male to female ratio on my most recent batch. I planted them tonight in dixie cups and rubber banded some plastic wrap on top. Here they are in the cab with the 2 newest Diesel Ryder females and my 6 Apollo 11/Green Giants.



Well thats it for now, hope you guys enjoyed the pics. I will take more as they develop, but I may just update my main thread for now, instead of this one as well. If I make updates I can announce it here too.

Peace

Very nice sir. If you don't mind just a few ?s.

-What lighting did you use?
-Soil or hydro?
-How did you handle smell (carbon filter, venting, etc...)
-How many plants are there?

Very well done sir. How many plants did you grow in this? Lighting? Soil or hydro? What did you do about smell? Boxers or briefs (j/k).

The grow journal is in my sig. to answer your many questions:
Plants - 1 x lowryder2 (hidden at the back somewhere) + 2 x Auto AK47

lights - started with 1 x 200W Envirolite (CFL) for 2 weeks, then 1 x 400W HPS on 20/4 for the remainder.

Soil - Biobizz organic light mix

started them all in Fleximix root riot cubes

Nutes - all biobizz organic: veg, bloom & topmax + a weekly dose of molasses.

Smell - very strong. Have some crappy cut to size carbon filters on my ducting and an air ioniser in the room (this helps), but my whole flat does smell!

Boxers / briefs - home made pouch of ganja leaves and string is my fav. think Tarzan in Jamaica :lol:

hey dudes, just a question i figured this would be the best place to ask....i'm a long time indoor grower but new to making my own seeds, i'm not interested in creating my own strain, but just producing a bunch of seeds that i can plant everywhere and give to friends...so, say i have 1 feminized white dwarf, 1 feminized easy ryder and 1 regular female diesel ryder, and i pollinate them with pollen from a diesel ryder male, will all those seeds be 100% auto?? i think so, right...i've just heard most folks say they'll be auto but some think that doin this with the feminized female may cause hermies...i don't really care, i just want a shit load of seeds that autoflower...thanks for any help...

Figured I'd throw in pics of my LR2 mother at finish and harvest. Lots of seeds to do my own crossing with from this beast.

-150hps and some cfls.

subscribed!!!! is it possible to grow clippings of an auto flowering strain? thx in advance
Click to expand...
Yes. but no.
The plants flower at x number of days from *seed*. A cutting/clipping/clone has the same 'age' as the plant it was taken from.

So yes it will grow, but probably be a single joint plant.
