from what i've read NO. lowryder has such a quick lifespan that training or cutting etc is not pos. or a waste. i'm a noob but with some good 411 from RIU n nice seeds from sannie i got a 4 inch X-MAS tree on one in a 1 gal pot n 2 3inch colas on a plant in a 2.5gal pot!!!!! nice!!!! both less than 6 inches high from lip of pot!!!!!!!

almost time to harvest....a week or so i think. it's so amazing to see for yourself. the 'hairs' went from white to milky-white and now they are drying out and turning yellow/brown/orange/red!!!! the tri's you can see with your naked eye....like long, thin mushrooms!!! with my pocket-micro the mushroom-heads look like barry bonds head...HUGE!!!! mostly milky/cloudy with some clear...waiting for amber. the cola itself is getting darker !!!!!!

after watchin the phillys d-stroy my douchers...my lil low-lows gave me some love...lol. congrats to the cheesesteaks out there...better team won.

Lookin great, I'd say they should be ready any day.
I'm surprised she doesn't have any amber in her trich's yet, mine went from clear to mostly cloudy with some amber in a week.

I really like your set-up, and I would recommend LED for the flowering, maybe before. With my limited experience in the field, I am blown away with the punch of the new LED grow-lights. In 45 days, under 24/7 light - I have females showing, on nice bushy plants.
From what I know, the smallest LED of any value, is the UFO, which is 90 watts, there might even be a smaller version. The $30-40 panels (where they don't tell you the wattage, because it's like 5 watts) are a waste of money, other than for decorative purposes.
Maybe you are planning on a larger set-up, but I think you could grow a substantial amount of material, in an enclosure only a bit larger, and two three times higher - just add light and air circulation.
And odor control - but you know all that.

o.k. i cut one of my two lowryders. the tops were 80% brown/red hairs and a few amber trichs. this was in a 2 1/2 gal pot. it had a V stem with two main colas. i did not take a pic of he tiny nugs on the bottom of the stem (seemed they were not as done as the tops of the main colas). i found that going from the bottom up the pruning was much easier and made for a better final cut.
i put them in paper bags inside a closet with stable temps and humidity...could not hang them. still have one lowryder to go.
after i harvest the other one...i'm going to put some cfls on the side of the tub/box. it's very obvious that the tops are done much quicker than the bottom of my plants because of more light to the top!!!

PLEASE TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK!!!
