Yeah so i was right when on day 14 i said i thought it was showing male preflowers. the lowryder one is definitely a male. that sucks cause it grew so fast and i spent so much money on those seeds only to kill two and one be male, but anyways ive decided to keep it as im hoping (fingers cross) that out of the next 3 lowryder seeds i currently have growing one or two will be female, then i might pollinate the female so i have more seeds to play with.

Day 19

Heres a update on the current situation.

This is my ICE plant, really hoping its female (as its my only one left) but im going to veg this for another 2/3 weeks yet.


This is my lovely male lowryder,i should throw this away but ive grown attatched to it besides may use it to pollinate another lowryder if i get a female or ICE if its female. but dont worry there seperate rooms.


im happy with the overall grow rate of my plants, usually this stage would be 5/6 weeks down the line. Thats how bad it was with my last grow.

I also have recently germinated another 2 lowryders and have another lowryder sprout at 1 week old. Also ordering some big bang femz tomorrow too.

sorry to hear about the losses. they one you got left is looking good though so hopefully is a female.
i use 125w cfls are they are great, never used 200w ones but they must be be good also. you will notice a big difference in health.
when your using nutes use just a quarter of the recommended dose. the recommended dose is the maximum dose for fully grown healthy plants, not sure if you already know that. see if you can collect the pollen from the male, its worth having some just in case.
good luck with your new lowryders, iv never grown the original lowryder but grown lowryder#2 many times, got some growing now

cheers, would you be able to send me a link to your grow of lowryder 2, i would love to see how they come out.

Its all ok no losses really, im more expermenting plus i can get pollen and hash from that male so yay!

im ordering my seeds from this place, 10x big bang fems for £23 ($46) which i think is an excellent deal for fem seeds.

it did sound abit dodgey but i looked at other prices of other seeds and they were about right, i think big bang were on an offer.

nope, but i ordered from them, they arrive within 22hours. so i think thats super quality deliverly.

Day 26

I havent given an update in a while so thought id upload some more pictures to show you how its going.

this is the ICE plant, still unsure of sex.


(THERE ISNT TWO PLANTS POTTED IN ONE TOO JUST FOR THE RECORD!)

Couldnt be bothered to upload a picture of my lowryder as its not exciting since its a male. So far i have 2 lowryder seedlings that im currently trying not to kill and a big bang thats just been planted.

Questions
When do you think i can start flowering my ice plant as its been nearly 4 weeks since its started. its not that tall though so i dont want a shitty yield that wasnt worth my time.
