Still hot af in germany but we’re only watering her any 3-4 days.
Over night she stands in the greenhouse, if there is a chance of rain we also put her inside the greenhouse.
9 days after the picture from Week 4 she did exactly what we predicted: she started her flower stretch.
She did about 45 cm of stretch in the last 9 days… thats insane!!
papaya cookies has now completed her stretch. typical for papaya, she develops purple/pink pistils. such a beauty. hopefully the weather will stay good enough for her bulk.
Papaya cookies are incredible! All the pistils turn purple, incredible beauty of this plant. We are so happy to have caught this extraordinary phenotype and are looking forward to an early harvest in about 2 weeks time.
unfortunately we noticed some budrod in the headbud. we cut it generously sb, unfortunately the papaya cookies still need something and the weather is now autumnal cold and rainy. We'll see in 7 days at the latest, but hopefully there won't be any more budrod by then... It's the most beautiful of all the outdoor plants so far.
the weather in germany is unfortunately getting very wet and cold early. The Papaya Cookies had to contend with Budrod in the headbud. This was probably also due to the enormous density of the headbud... So we harvested them after a total of 60 days to prevent worse.
So far it has been one of our favourites in outdoor growing, visually delicious with its pink pistils.
The plant also has an incredibly tropical, delicious smell of mango and papaya - we are already looking forward to the smoke test
