Headstash x Papaya First GrowDiary!

the veg state for this plant is so simple, she will drink anything you throw at her, Its the flowering where you need to cautious of how much she gets, She took to her first small feeding well! Very bushy and rugged plant, let's see what 2 months and bit get her! This is a long grow that I can't wait to show off, I know i missing a lot of weeks as i started late, but better late than never!

I'll consider this the week before flip, my veg schedule is all messed due to a late journal start, At this point of my grow i have been vegging for 2 months, had a deficiency and a lockout, quickly fixed with a simple flush, unfortunately... with a 10 gallon final pot thats a lot of water to put through to flush. To prepare for the dark cycle i did put them in 24 hours of darkness prior to help trigger flowering, worked like a charm and probably not needed but within 4 days i started to see clusters of pistils, also no pictures this week but enjoy some nug shots!

This journal is started a bit late for the flowering life of this plant but better late than never! After 1 month of vegging and very mild LST ( low stress training ) I cut 32 clones from her all of which rooted perfectly and not one casualty.  this left her almost bare and needing to re veg to create a new nodes for bud production.    I had her to the point she almost looked like a stick, I neglected her, I wanted her to show me how her deficiencies appear and how quickly she could be brought back to health, I got nearly all her leaves to the point of death from the lack of nutrients and high PH levels.  This process was all done within 2 weeks to really see how quickly she could bounce back . I transplanted her from her 5 gallon into her new 10 gallon home with new soil giving her an additional 4 inches in every direction to grow new roots, though her leaves were sick, her roots were still pearly white and showed no sign of sickness. after the transplant I gave her real first feed which included a large flush with 6.4 PH water before giving the nutrients at 6.6 PH. Overnight I already saw the dramatic changes, all growth had almost stopped previously, but the next day and with nutrients she grew almost and inch and new vegetation was very obvious. A few days later after her soil was dry she had grown about 2 inches and was due for another feeding. This time it was 2 gallons of water using about 15 ml of each nutrient except the "armor si" which was given at 4 ml Ph'd to 6.4. Her growth sky rocketed, so much so I had to super crop her to keep her height down. at this point were about 2 months into veg and shes sitting at 32 inches tall ( not including the pot ) about 2 and a half feet wide and shes looking ready for flower with all her luscious green leaves. Come December 4th 2018 I flip her into flower. Silly me forgot to program the timer so she was actually sitting in flower for 36 hours rather than the initial 24 I planned to give her to help her flowering hormones quick start. No harm done, all new growth was very yellow from the lack of light needed to produce chlorophyll, but luckily withing 6 hours of the lights being on the yellowing was almost non existent.  now were in week 4 I pollinated 2 branches to get a cluster of seeds and left the rest of her to create resinous bud! as you can see shes stacking beautifully!

were right at the mark twhere I remember this beauty starting to pack on the weight, from previous clones, shes going to be an absolute beast. though she has a few sisters visiting her for a while. she the largest amonst the whole tent. i took off the bags of pollen on my two branches and can wait for the clusteres of seeds on those branches :D

unfortunately I suffered a lock out and i had to go ahead and flush her,but today I just gave her, her first feed since, and shes back on track! The nutrients are definitely a lot "Hotter" than I'm used to, The plant is full of bud so I'm excited to see what the final weight is, she's going to be some quality squish!

this week I'm trying literally anything to increase resin production, I've put ice water with a bucket of ice at the root zone, I've put a hole in the middle of her large main stalk, just anything that could be myth or fact to see if it works. We have the Advance overdrive in there aswell to get any final production out of her before her chop coming soon! Her trichomes are about 10% clear 80% cloudy and 10% amber, a few more days before her chop her flush has her all yellowed out after about 2. 5 weeks of flushing also giving her a final dose of Florakleen to make sure and residual salts are gone and continuing with only water

I loved that I was able to grow and document everything on here, It helped me keep tabs on my papayahuascha, she was a real fun grow and I'm glad i got to share it with everyone! Things to note when growing this strain: It's not very nutrient hungry, for how resinous this plant is, it's shocking that she doesn't like nutrients nearly as much as any of my other girls, everything I had would be fed more often than her. proned to being burned but didnt affect yields too much. I suggest growing her in a scrog over the lst, This plant thrives in a good canopy! I hope you all enjoyed my first diary, I know tho short, I still enjoyed the whole process! see you in the next one! Update!! after 1 week of curing, The flavors are really starting to shine, she's very musky and pungent with great orange like undertones, all ash has been white as snow. definite grow again for me!
