I just picked some fem seeds up, but I was just wondering what size yields you guys got? (subjective topic, I know) How is the smoke / potency? and lastly, was it a fairly easy grow? Or was she a pain in the maximus gluteous? Thanks for your input ya'll! Happy smokin'.

It was my first grow. Good smoke. Functional high (compared to AK-47, for example) and slight lemon taste. I grew another and got a lanky pheno. I cannot comment on yield b/c I am using a hempy cup in a PC grow box with CFLs -- just personal smoke.

Both times I was astounded how fast the plants took off. Can be pretty skunky during flower. Sugary buds. Both finished right around 60 days, flowered at day 14 from germ.

Easy grow. I bought some more, but right now I have Bug Buddha Automatic going (NL X Bonkers).
 
That's pretty much how I will be growing mine as well! haha. Thanks for the review man. I'm pretty excited for these. I've heard of people constantly germinating every about 2 weeks after their first sprout so they're always ensured a constant stash. It's genius
 
I may or may not have some Nirvana Short Ryders going right now. Anyhoo...4 of 5 germ'ed (one barely opened and was mush on the inside, Nirvana took care of me when I let them know). Out of those, all of them are kickin'. I'm doing soil (3 gallon pots) under a 400w MH. I'm maybe 1 week in and I'm amazed at how fast the are growing.

I don't have any yield info but they appear to be solid. So far so good...
 
hi there.i just finished two short riders,only two seeds cracked out of five, i told nirvana and they sent me five more seeds.
the plants grew very fast,they took about 9 weeks but they were more like tall rider than short rider,in the end there was
only a few very small buds,hardly worth the effort,i wont be buying short rider again,i have heard other people
on roll it up moaning about nirvanas auto flowering strains.
 
Well I've heard the yields are small due to the size of the plant, it's all about speed. But it sounds like your plant also over reached BazzBerry.
 
The yields are not huge but the smoke is awesome for how fast the plant grows. Short riders were my first grow and seems to be an easy strain to grow. forms a main cola, mine was 17 inches long.

This is what i got off one plant. Im planning to grow two more after my northern lights grow.
