Lowryder2 150W HPS Cabinet Grow

[rebo]

Well this is my cabinet and seedlings.. I started them under CFLs.. these pics were from a month or so ago, and the plants are much further along right now.. I will be posting mor pics later tonight when I have some time..

The plants in these pics are all lowryder2 .. I had 4 going in total.. 2 turned out to be males and after a bit on hermied on me so I ended up with one female out of the 4 which I pollenated with a cuetip so I could get some seeds for the next go around..

I'll be back with more pics of the plants as they got larger and I also started some lowryder2 x ak47 x blueberry in there which are coming along nicely

Here's some more pics as promised..
The female LR2 is coming along nicely and is starting to get frosty. The LR2xAKxBB have shown sex and are both females. I have started 2 more LR2xAKxBB in peat pucks and have already transplanted one of those into a 1 gallon pot.

Thanks JamieShoes .. it's been a real learning experience so far

Nicely done man. Keep up the good work.
Where did you grab the LRxAKxBB cross? I only ask because I made one of these myself once.
You know the details of it? f1 or f2 or ibl or whatever?
I wanted to make one with an auto ak but I never came across the pheno, settled with blueberry and waited a generation. Turned out for me though
Good luck

Hey Funk Buddha.. thanks for the comp man.. means alot to an indoor cabinet noob like me.. I got the seeds from dr chronic .. I just went back there to looked them up again and they are actually lowlyfe 'LR2xAK and LR2xBB' cross .. I'm not sure if they're F1 or F2 etc I'm just growin' and smokin' lol ... I wanted something with a little more punch to it. I think I'm going to try the auto deisel pretty soon it sounds pretty tasty Once I'm more experienced I may try some of the more advanced things that you are doing in your lowryder hybrid breeding project log.. man those look like some dank plants bro.. nice work there.. Right now I consider myself lucky for not having killed my plants yet lol

Here's a pic of the LR2xAKxBB that Im growing showing her pubes

Here's a pic from today of the two largest LR2xBBxAK plants in flower.. They're at about week4.

Here's a shot of the LR2 cola .. it's starting to thicken up.

This nug is getting frosty

I think I should add some info about my setup...

The flowering space is approx. 3' wide x 2' deep and about 3' tall out of an almost 6' tall cabinet.. I am using a Solar & Palau TD-125 duct fan for venting, and 2 8"x8" dark room louvers for intakes. I made a cool tube from a bake-a-round and it is currently housing a 150W HPS bulb that is from an outdoor fixture that I converted into a remote ballast unit. I am using a standard computer fan for internal circulation. I just got a canfilter 2200 which I will install on the output to act not only as an odor filter but also as a muffler.

Thanks for the kind words bro.. I'm still digging your setup, and I'm sure I could learn a lot from you.

Makin' Beans!

Pollination has been a success.. I brushed the lower flowers with pollen and now those flowers are making beans!!

Here's a shot of the LR2 in all her glory.. it's about 16" to 18" tall

LR2xAKxBB LST

LR2xAKxBB LST

I decided to try and LST one of my LR2xAKxBB plants and see if it will help increase yield..

How loud would you say that S&P 125 gets?

 

[JamieShoes]

I have some LR2s and masterlows to run this month (woohoo.. I'm looking forward to that) - I'm really interested to see how they respond to LST.


What pollen are you using on your LR2? more LR2? ... I'm curious to try some crossing once I've got a few on the go - as the advice goes we should use LR males with whatever females we want to make into an auto - that means any clones I can get from elsewhere are likely candidates :smile:

Hard to say how loud.. it is pretty quiet, and I have it on a ceiling fan controller set on low, so really all I can hear is the air moving. Thanks for stopping by!

I'm hoping that with such a short veg time, that the LST doen't do more harm than good I think it's looking ok though. My thoughts were that with the extra branching that this strain has the LST would expose more flower sites, and hopefully produce a larger quantity of decent sized, dense bud, instead of the one cola and a few popcorn buds.

I did use LR2 pollen on the LR2.. I'd like to try crossing one of these days as well.
Thanks for stopping by!
