How to grow Snow Ryder Automatic
Seb's take
Snow White crossed with Lowryder for an indica-dominant autoflower that isn't the smallest of its kind, running up to 120cm on short internodes. Tight, trichome-covered buds finish in seven to nine weeks for a modest but honest 250g/m2. Suited to new and experienced growers alike, with little special care required.
Where it comes from
The name is plain arithmetic - Snow White supplies the first half, Lowryder the second, and White Label Seed Company let the sum stand. An indica-dominant automatic at roughly three parts to one, she takes her frost from the Snow White side and her automatic habit from Lowryder, the parent that keeps the whole affair on a fixed clock. No grand claims are made about the family beyond that; the record is content to name the two parents and let the plant do the explaining.
Nose & flavour
The record is reticent on the nose, and I shan't invent one for it. What it does record is the finish: short internodes packed with tight, trichome-covered buds, sticky enough to earn their keep. Expect frost you can see before you can smell it - a plant that dresses heavily for the occasion and lets the resin speak where the tasting notes stay silent.
The high
Nothing is set down about the experience beyond the strength on paper - fifteen to twenty-two per cent, a respectable spread for an automatic and no apology required. Approach the upper end as you would a staircase in the dark: unhurried, one step at a time. Beyond that I would rather say too little than dress up a claim the record does not make.
Growing it
This is one of the less diminutive automatics, running up to 120cm on those short internodes, so she wants a little headroom despite the compact reputation of her class. Give the roots a proper home - a 25-litre container or larger indoors - and she rewards it, finishing seven to nine weeks from germination, or thereabouts eighty days. Yields sit at a modest 150 to 250 g/m², or eighty to a hundred grams per plant: honest rather than heroic. She does equally well indoors and out, asks for little special care, and is forgiving of enthusiasm - a sound first automatic.
