6.Grow: Papayton

tsf_homegrow The start of the little ones went pretty well.

tsf_homegrow They look good.

tsf_homegrow It's going well, next week I'll be repotting.

tsf_homegrow Repotted and moved to the new propagation tent.

tsf_homegrow Getoppt

tsf_homegrow This week I tried Cuts for the very first time as a test.

tsf_homegrow The roots of the Papayton 3 are really pushing through the bottom of the pot. And the Lemon Cherry Runtz Bonsai has joined in.

tsf_homegrow Light deficiency symptoms are slowly appearing; half the fertilizer dose is no longer enough.

tsf_homegrow Everything is slowly getting ready for the flowering.

tsf_homegrow Defoliated a bit at the bottom.

tsf_homegrow Only slight signs of suppression are still visible, everything ready for flowering.

tsf_homegrow :en: On the evening of December 30th, I set up the net, moved the shoots down a bit, and spread them out underneath. On December 29th, I cleaned everything up and repotted. Filled the tank with 30 liters.

tsf_homegrow 1.6. is going according to plan. 1.5. has reached the stretch stage. Let's see how big they end up being. 😅💛✌️ 1.3. Tank refilled. 1.2. Some side shoots removed. 1.1. Everything straightened up and grown through the net. It's going well! 12.31. This evening the light will be on for the first time on a 12/12 cycle. Flowering begins now! 🤩💛✌️

tsf_homegrow The week starts off lush and green, with the plants in full stretch. On January 8th, I added bloom fertilizer to the tank for the first time. 💛✌️

tsf_homegrow The stretching is going full throttle. They're doing very well. However, if they don't stop stretching within the next 10cm, I'll probably have to build the exhaust vent to the outside. The plants were stripped of their leaves over the weekend, and since then some shoots have been drooping slightly due to the lack of support from the leaves. Most recovered after 24 hours and are standing upright again on their own, except for five shoots on the front right side of the plant.

tsf_homegrow 1.24. is running, see photos. :) 1.22. Refilled the tank and added PK. Let the stacking begin! 🤩 1.20. The week starts with the end of the stretch and the beginning of flower development. 😆💛✌️

tsf_homegrow 2.2. Another week has passed. They're doing well; P1 is developing purple stigmas, P2 is the smallest but possibly the most flavorful (that will become clear later), and P3 seems to be the frostiest. The scent is slowly intensifying, you can now smell them even when the tent is closed and you just enter the room.🤩💛✌️ 2.1. Refilled the tank again, this time increasing the PK dose. 1.31. Second defoliation, fingers crossed they don't become hermaphroditic. 1.26. Filled the tank with 30 liters.

tsf_homegrow 🇩🇪 9.2. It remains exciting; every pheno is a bit different. In the end, it will be the taste and the high that decide which one I like best. Until then, the next 30 days must continue to go smoothly. Happy growing, see you next week! 💛✌️ 6.2. Tank refilled, PK slightly increased. 3.2. I tied up the first shoot as a test. Over the next few weeks, I’ll probably tie up a pair every now and then until, most likely, they’ll all be on the line.

tsf_homegrow 🇩🇪 2.17. Another week has passed and we’re nearing the end. They’ll get fertilizer for another week, then at least two more weeks of flushing, and then we’ll be ready for harvest. Until then, they can continue to ripen undisturbed, growing a little thicker, heavier, and more compact each day. Happy growing! 💛✌️ 2.14. Things are going well. P1 & P3 are performing excellently, P2 is less convincing in comparison so far. But who knows, in the end it all comes down to taste and the high. 2.11. Tank refilled, power output slightly increased again. Bloom reduced. And today we took our second cat into the grow room as a photo model and had a little photo shoot with her in front of the papayton tent with my girlfriend as the photographer. 😅😂✌️ 2.10. New week, same grow, it’s going wonderfully, the buds of the ladies are getting heavier, the shoots are already hanging at nylon in places. And we still have a good 30-40 days to go. 🤩💛✌️

tsf_homegrow 18.2. the final phase is running, flowering nutrients further reduced and PK increased again.

tsf_homegrow The flush begins… 2-3 more weeks and we'll be ready for harvest.

tsf_homegrow 2.3. new and probably last week. 🤩

tsf_homegrow 9.3. all the headbuds harvested plus a few of the ones below that look good, all hanging together in the Vcure and hopefully in excellent condition in 14 days. The rest will stay for a few more days and will then be dried in the traditional way in the tent and, if the timing works out, will also go into the Vcure for curing once the headbuds are ready and can go into the jar.

tsf_homegrow Partial harvest of the headbuds is hanging in the Vcure.
