Unknown strains, help?

First of all; im a newbie and am doing my first grow, but ive been a dedicated stoner for about 3 years and appreciate all of you growers out there very much!!

So ive got a fluorescent 100 watt lamp from Plug and Grow. Ive got big flower pots, I grow with regular flowershop soil and use Bio-Grow from BioBizz.

The lamp is on 16 out of 24 hours.

I have 4 plants, two of them grown from lowryder seeds. At least i think that they're lowryder seeds because i got them out of a baggie, and the dealer says that the weed was lowryder.

The other two plants are some seeds that my friend ordered online, but im not sure what strain.

The two 'lowryder' have been growing for about a month and 2 weeks, maybe a bit longer now. The other two unknown strain plants have been growing for a month as well.

I heard that lowryders auto-flower, but mine don't seem to. I cant even sex them yet.

Is it because of my light cycle? Or because i use a fertilizer for vegetative growth? Or are they maybe not lowryder plants afterall (but they grow short and bushy)?

Any advice? should i change light cycles? should i change fertilizers?

The other two unknown plants are still pretty short, but can i put them into blooming stage already?

Thanks for all the help!




**I AM NOT DOING ANYTHING ILLEGAL, THIS WAS QUESTIONED FOR RESEARCH PURPOSES ONLY**

and if i can/want to flower the other two unknown plants (not the lowryder, but the other two) earlier, i need to put them under a 12 out of 24hour light cycle, right?
Is it okay if i keep the lowryder plants under that light cycle (12 on, 12 off) as well??

Thanks!!!

there is a difference between an "auto" and "lowryders"
you need to put them under 12/12 to begin flowering yes and no you cannot keep one type form flowering, unless, every day at the end of 12 hours of light, u placed a black bag over them or removed
them form the light, both highly unpractical
the use of nutes in veg stage is what your ment to do, and in the flower stage.
grow them in veg for as long as you can, and as big as you want (plants can triple is height when flowered) so be prepared for that
and you can go 12/12 from seed flowering them as soon as th eplant physichally can, so yes you can flower now, and whenever you want
happy growing

well without pictures its hard to say what there looking like, but just put them in a 12/12 along with everything else, they should sex pretty quickly. other than that sounds like your doing ok, in the future us 18-6 or 24-0 light cycles for veg!

^and what he said
Peace!

Thanks!! Yeah i will let them grow for another week, and then put them into blooming stage with a different light bulb (meant for blooming, also fluorescent) and a 12/12 light cycle. Im also gonna give them some Bio-Bizz blooming fertilizer then. Anything else i need to do, take care of, or look out for?

Thanks and keep it blazin'!!
