ANYONE HAVE LOWRIDER GO HERMIE??

[PHL8T ME]

Started the LR indoors, moved outdoors as soon as it was about an inch tall. Planted in pots, 100% organic grow outdoors. At about 6 weeks 3 females and one male started to flower, actually the male was about 3-4 days ahead of the females. I designated one plant to be a seed producer for next year and after pollinization the male was sacrificed. After about 65 days of flowering all but one female was harvested. The remaining fem was clipped back by about half. This cutting back had a really bizzare effect. It went back into full flower, it got much fuller. Then after about two weeks of female flowers, it switched to male flowers. The resulting plant is about the size of a baseball, (and almost as dense).
Just wondering if anyone has had an experience like this with lowrider?

hmmm interesting. never heard of any hermies before.
perhaps you could try pollinating another female with the hermie pollen and make feminized seeds.

Way to late for that, besides it was the last plant growing. It may have pollinated itself earlier though, as there were a few seeds on the lower half of the plant (same place as the male flowers) If those seeds are any good it may be an interesting next year?

Thats what happened. The top buds were about done, so the plant was topped. The lower 1/2 responded by flowering like mad for a while and then switched to male flowers. It looked like one big knot when it was harvested. Will start harvesting seeds when cured.

ahh figures, how did it get topped? rodents?? i didnt get as big as a yield as i thought i would have gotten outdoors with this strain, got a almost a half of very fluffy buds off each plant, good luck next harvest

Three, fem's= about 3/4 oz. Not bad smoke either. Tastes a bit odd but it does the job.

did yours come out alot different than mine or no? as far as looks go, and i agree it does have a very odd unique taste, but i love the smell of it when it broken up ready to go in a joint, the smell is what i love most about this strain

Looked the same, some of the buds ran just a wee bit. After about a month cure it tastes somewhat different, it mellowed alot.
