Gonna be growing 1 or 2 of these discreet shorties this Spring.
I've wanted to try these fast little plants FOREVER & finally got 3 seeds. I'm extremely stoked. Gonna be growing outdoors in 3-gallon smartpots with plain soil w/ no added nutrients. (Cheap stuff from Wal-Mart or similar).
We have a large farm with trees to give me privacy so that shouldn't be an issue, but I'm still thinking of ways to be stealthy. There's a faucet out back where I plan to leave my watering can & a barn for me to store the plants during bad weather. I plan to leave them sitting among the tall grass during the daytime to soak up the sun so they won't be in full view but can still catch some rays. Planning to water them about 3x per week once they're out of sprout stage.
How long from sprout to harvest do these badboys usually take? I've heard everything from 40 to 120 days, which is a big difference. I plan to give mine full sun as much as possible, but some days I probably can't since it storms a lot here & I'll need to keep them hidden at times. I'll be planting them in early May.
I'm keeping this as utterly simple & cheap as possible--no fertilizers or other fancy stuff. Any bug repellent will be made out of things I've got in the kitchen. I live in a humid climate with every pest & critter imaginable so it's not fun going outside in the summer. Wasps, spiders, fire ants, mosquitoes & everything else imaginable comes out when it's hot. I don't really care about yields or anything like that. I'll just be excited if it makes it through its entire life cycle to harvest with a couple buds intact. It will be my first successful grow.
If anyone's grown these Lowryder #2's & has any tips or tricks I'd love to hear them! I'm still months away & already obsessing
