    Default I Thought Plants Normally Grew a Bit Quicker in their First Week than This--Pics

    Hey Guys,

    This is a Lowryder #2 plant growing under CFLs.

    It is currently sitting under a 250w CFL (flowering spectrum, I had GREAT results 2 years ago growing Lowryder without a veg lamp).

    The temperature is ranging from 79-84 F and the humidity is sitting at about 35%. The plant is about 6-7 days from sprouting.

    I was under the impression that plants normally grow a bit quicker in the first week? Atleast last time I grew Lowryder the leaves seemed to grow quite quickly at first.

    In a 24 hour period I have witnessed almost no change in the plant, I've attached a picture from yesterday and today at exactly the same time. Can you guess which one is which? (one is zoomed in so looks a bit bigger, but in person I can't see any change and I am slightly worried, at this stage I thought they normally show quite a bit of change even over 24 hour periods.)

    Also, does anyone know what kind of light schedules to use for Lowryder? I've seen people say do 18/6 and then 12/12 but also seen people say to just give it 24 hour light until you move to 12/12.

    i would just stick to 18/6 then 12/12 to flower

    you could do 24/7 for the first 1-2 weeks thats what i did but i probs will go 20/4 for the first 2 weeks next then to to 18/6

    I will. I am just worried when I compare it to pics from my last grow, I had a failed grow last month and the plant was almost dwarf like.

    you don't have to move to 12/12 for an autoflowering plant. The plant will move into flowering on its own. As recommended by many growers to me the ideal light schedule for autos are 18/6. Good luck man, that much light for that little guy and you should have a fun harvest.

    I have another 250w as well, not plugged it in yet though. Would be 500w for just one plant if I did. Is it worth plugging it in when it gets bigger? Maybe I can hang it vertically to get more light lower down

    Are you doing the same things as you did when you had your failure?

    It looks like it has some nute issue, the leaves are clawing down. Search on what it means.
    Beside that it looks perfectly normal.
