Papaya Power

Socal6pak Transplanted the double sprout into another cell pot. Hope it will survive. If it does then it’s 5 out 5 sprouted. The lower right is kool whip. Previously I pop 6 but only 1 sprouted. Very strange. I don’t know what happened. That’s why I popped some papaya power.

Socal6pak Seedlings chugging along. The seedling I kinda pulled out survived when I transplanted it to another cell pot. Only thing I did was to keep the soil moist. Very amazing.

Socal6pak This week was basically seeing if the transplanted little sprout will survive. And she did amazingly. I just kept the soil moist. I basically pull her out gently from the top left pot and placed in lower middle empty pot. Impressed with her resilience.

Socal6pak Growing slow. I kinda neglect for 1 week. Should have transplanted 1 week ago. But they staying in the cell pot 1 week extra. Have a heavy white fly infestation. Any recs? Transplanted to 2 gal pots. And left them outside for one week. See if the white flies will clear up.

Socal6pak My own worm casting and used soil mix with egg shells. Transplanted into 2 gal pots. Will leave them outside for a while. Hopefully get rid of the white fly problem. All ready almost no white flies after a days outside. This gonna be delayed. Last week I didn’t do much other than water.

Socal6pak 2 seedlings didn’t survive the transplant and topping. Luckily I still had 2 more seeds left. Guess it’s fate. Will pop the remainder. Left these outdoor. Guess they didn’t fair well. These gonna grow slow unless I can take them inside. I’ll have to try to make room for them.

Socal6pak So. I lost 2 after transplant, HST and bring them outside (I know. It was too much change at once). So I popped the remaining 2 beans. Luckily both sprouted. So I’m back to 5 total. I end up bring the original 3 back in the tent. And continue with the mainline. As soon as the flower tent finish. I’ll flip these. Meanwhile it’s keep on training.

Socal6pak All at different stages of veg. This will be a tough grow. But it’s ok. I’m gonna have a few plants to catch up to the 2 newly popped. So they will be ready in 8 weeks anyway. The other 3 big girls already trained to 8 colas. But still kinda small and stunted bc they were set outside in the cold for 3 weeks. It’s gonna take them a few weeks to enjoy the veg tent and get their growth spur.

Socal6pak 2 weeks in the tent really did these girls a solid. They really perked up from being pampered. Socal weather really up n down now. Not consistent. So it was a good move to bring these girls inside. Two of these ready to flip actually. I’ll give them a couple more weeks to get stronger before flip.

Socal6pak 2 of these ready to flip. Throwing pistils telling me they ready. And I will flip them soon when the flower tent finishing up. I missed 1 photo. But the 2 smaller ones are growing well. I’m not gonna train these 2 until 5 weeks later. Gotta be patient. I might just top once and flip. So they can catch up with the other 3?

Socal6pak GOT 2 PAPAYAS READY FOR FLIP. TRANSPLANT AND LOLLIPOP. THE OUTDOOR WILL STAY OUT FOR COUPLE WEEKS BEFORE I BRING HER INTO TENT TO FINISH HER. NEED TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF SUN TO MAXIMIZE FLOWERING. ONE I ALREADY BRING INTO TENT. THE OTHER SHOULD ACCLIMATE FOR A WEEK BEFORE I BRING HER INSIDE TO FINISH. I JUST TRANSPLANTED ANOTHER PAPAYA POWER ALSO BUT HAVEN'T LOLLIPOPPED. WILL GIVE HER A WEEK BEFORE CLEANING HER UP. SO FAR 3 PAPAYAS WILL BE FLIPPED. SO FAR SO GOOD.

Socal6pak 3 papaya power in the flower tent. I do need to clean my flower tent. It’s getting dirty and messy. So far normal grow. Nothing out of ordinary. East grow and fast growth. Two 1 month seedlings transplanted, topped and left outdoors. Will veg them another month before flip in tent.

Socal6pak CLEANED UP THE TENT (IT WAS FILTHY) AND NOW JUST 3 PAPAYA POWER INSIDE. WILL ADD MORE NIGHTMARE COOKIES AFTER A COUPLE WEEKS AS THEY SETTLE INTO THEIR NEW 4-5 GAL POTS. HALF NIGHTMARE COOKIES READY TO FLIP. ANOTHER HALF STILL KINDA SMALL AND NEED MORE WEEKS. ATLEAST THIS WAY I DONT HAVE TO TRIM 6 PLANTS AT THE SAME TIME. KINDA TIRING.

Socal6pak MID FLOWER. TIME TO AMEND. EVERYTHING ELSE LOOKS GOOD. NOT SUPER FROSTY. NOT SUPER BIG BUDS. SEEMS QUITE NORMAL. BUT PERHAPS JUST ME NOT GROWING TO BEST POTENTIAL? MINOR YELLOWING AT THE BOTTOM.

Socal6pak so far so good, very compact buds, but leafy. gonna be a trimming hell. the buds are not that big. but smells sweet. has it only been 5 weeks? since flip? why does it seem almost 8 weeks already. strange.

Socal6pak BUDS FATTENING UP. NOTHING TO IT. AMENDED LAST WEEK. SO JUST CRUISE CONTROL FOR ANOTHER 2-3 WEEKS BEFORE HARVEST. I THINK IM ALMOST THERE. SOME TRICHROMES ON SUGAR LEAVES ALREADY TURNING AMBER. SO ITS ALMOST TIME. PERHAPS ANOTHER 1-2 WEEKS. SHOULD BE GOOD ENOUGH FOR THIS STRAIN.

Socal6pak WHITE FLIES INFESTATION JUST TOO MUCH INSIDE THE TENT. AND SO CLOSE TO HARVEST I DIDN'T WANT TO KEEP ON SPRAYING THE FLOWERS. SO I JUST DECIDE TO TAKE THEM OUTSIDE. GIVE THEM A GOOD SHOWER TO WASH OFF ALL THE WHITE FLIES AND REMOVE ALL THE LOWER FAN LEAVES WHICH ARE LOADED W/ EGGS. NICE FAT COLAS. AND SMELLS SWEET AND PUNGENT. MOST LIKELY CHOP END OF THIS WEEK. ITS GETTING CLOSE. SOME AMBER TRICHOMES ON THE SUGAR LEAVES. 1/2 AND 1/2 PISTALS. EVEN IF I WERE 1 WEEK SHORT ITS NOT A BIG DEAL. GETTING RID OF WHITE FLIES IS PRIORITY. JUST WAY TO MUCH. EVEN MY FAN WERE COVERED W/ WHITE FLIES. 2 GIRLS IN VEG IS READY FOR FLIP. I'LL TRANSPLANT UP AND VEG FOR A COUPLE MORE WEEKS BEFORE FLIP.

Socal6pak SUPER EASY STRAIN TO GROW. VERY STRONG SWEET SMELL. DIDNT HAVE ISSUES WITH NUTES. SINCE IM ORGANIC GROWER. THE PLANT JUST DOES IT OWN THING WITH GIVEN SOIL. I JUST WATER AND AMENDED WHEN NEEDED. FLOWER CYCLE TOOK AROUND 8 WEEKS. I THINK I COULD HAVE DEFOLIATED A LOT MORE. TO IMPROVE LIGHT HITTING ALL THE COLAS. IM JUST NOT SURE W/ DEFOLIATION. I GUESS I'LL HAVE TO TRY ONE TIME WITH ONE PLANT. HOW MUCH DEFOLIATION I CAN PUSH THE LIMIT OF THE PLANT.
