Growingape Welcome to my next diary this time is Papaya time.
So I'm doing Papaya sherbet from fastbuds, just like the other seed, i germinated on a paper towel with some mycorrhiza powder and it was ready to transplant in just 24 hour's.
In just 3days I make the next update, I would be happy to see you there.
Take care; have a good day.

Growingape Welcome back to my diary of Papaya sherbet from fastbuds;
As with the Papaya stank I gave her a lot of mycorrhiza to start with mixed in the soil near the seed and on the seed before I covered it.
The plant started fast a little bit faster than Papaya stank but only marginally. The shade of green is also a bit darker than the other Papaya, but that's mean nothing expect it's way too dark so it's a sign for chlorosis.
I also noticed it getting a bit red on the upper stem in the first pre days, not a thing to worry; not a thing that relevant but I thought it would be worth mentioning.
I hope to see U back in my next update; take care

Growingape Welcome back to my diary of Papaya sherbet from fastbuds;
It's day 9to10 and the plant grew big in these week as always, with the first real pair of leafs in the start, and very big seedling leafs it looks like the critical phase of germination is done.
I only give a bit root complex to the water, expect this I don't do much barely anything besides checking on them.
I gave her around half a liter in this week.
The initial mycorrhiza does her part for very big seedling leafs as I've never got them that big.
There's already side branches beginning to form and I guess I will take her into flower more early as the last run, I guess like 3weeks veg instead of 4 but I will see how they will develop.
The only thing I struggle a bit with is the humidity at around 40 percent.
I thank U for being part of this journey and I hope to see U on the next update.

Growingape Welcome back to my diary of Papaya sherbet;
This week where a bit rough for her, struggling with spider mites I registered too late cuz I never had them that early; I treated them with neem but have not dimmed down the lamp, that's how i always do but In this case it caused a bit burn on the leaves additional to the spidermite damage.
I'm still very optimistic with her, she is still going strong and the side branches on both leaf pairs started evenly; I've wanted to make a photo of it but my camera want to focus on anything except the plant despite going into plant mode.
She got a really solid stem and grow very dense from the leaf pair distance. She will handle the stress, even if her growth are a bit stunted now for a little moment so I will allow her a extra week before I set to 12/12. Before I've planned to let her flower in as little as one week.
I hope to still see U on the next updates; stay healthy.

Growingape Welcome back to this semi failed diary of Papaya sherbet;
This week went slow, she is very stunted as I expected but not from the light burn, it's because I messed up badly and confused percent with ml of neem oil. I gave her percent not ml which were way too much and the leafs got blocked from breathing by the oil.
She only grew 3cm in this week I would say this Is the very definition of things going sideways.
Bc Ive got a little time pressure I need to make the decision of sorting her out or setting her to flower on good luck and accept a very low yield.
I think I go with the second option, as I can always evict her in the case she can't tolerate the stress and go Hermie.
If I would give her an extra week like I previously said in my last update I'm sure she would regenerate to a full healthy plant again. Now I just take the 50/50 risk. And start another time again someday with this strain.
In this week my schedule doesn't changed much, I just increased the amount of root boost because it's been said the ingredients are helping the plant tolerate stress more easily. The side branches developed kinda good based on the circumstances.
After the last update she also moved into the bigger tent, with the spiderfarmer and proper ventilation etc. In order to prepare for Bloom.
I don't know what else to tell about her and the week. So I hope the next update will be more promising.
I wish everyone a good weekend.

Growingape Welcome back to my diary of Papaya sherbet.
This week went surprisingly good I would say, after the first three days of the week I saw normal leafs again, and I guess I perfectly timed the switch into flower even if this plant are still that small.
I took away a few fan leaves to allow more circulation and light on the underlying leaves and branches. I did that but I don't got a idea how to do it with this plant, so I wait out the stretch, and will see.
I make it easy for me at switching to Bloom fertilizer, I just ramp down the veg and ramp in the Bloom.
The side branches got really short internodes and I guess at the next time i grow this strain, I will put her in training with topping.
So yeah, I hope I will have a great week and maybe I see I again in my next update. Take care

Growingape Welcome back to my diary of this cute little Papaya sherbet
I spared out the last update BC I really wasnt in the right mood and also it would had been a boring update, with no training, no defoliation, etc it was just growing. Now as it appears the stretch comes to an end it finally get interesting.
In the last week I Defoliated and lollipoped her finally she's also got a very long stretch time of like 20days. I ramped down the root booster as Its not necessarily needed anymore for the flower and ramped in bloom fertilizer and bloom boost.
I will stay at her at a maximum of 1,0ec bc she's that small, and the soil amount are a bit too big for her size.
BC the light are that far away I don't expect a good quality any more but I should still do my best.
I'm still happy that I've left this plant alive and also that Ive now got an technique for growing her.
Well there's not much else to say I wish U a great weekend stay safe.

Growingape Welcome back to my diary of this Papaya sherbet;
it's been 7days since the last update and much happened, on the one side the plant grew even more, and she's also fully in bloom. I can already Defoliate again and will do it in the middle of the next week.
She goes very strong, she almost never lets the leafs hanging.
I gave her a calmag treatment, the rest of my fertilizer schedule are unchanged, with an ec of 1,0
I feel like there's nothing much more to say for this week so I wish I a great week and take care.

Growingape Welcome back to my diary of this Papaya sherbet;
The week was smooth the buds started to stack A little, I took some low stress training and bended the branches down. She also got her first extra pk.
I now Defoliate from time to time, with only taking the leaves which are putting shadows on the buds.
I noticed a very little bit of nutrient burn on a main leaf, maybe a EC of 1,2 was too much for her size and the big pot.
Bc of the low stress training the plant got too big for the spider farmer tent, so i moved her to the smaller tent.
There's nothing much to say about this week, so I would wish U a good week and take care.

Growingape Welcome back to my diary of this Papaya sherbet;
This week the buds stacked and became big, I'm now down to maximal 1,2ec with a average of 1,1ec. Next week I will add some calmag to just be sure.
The smell started to get very sherbet like.
In this week I Defoliated a bit, and noticed the whole plant grew asymmetric but that's probably just my fault with the neem oil I messed up the one time. If I do this strain again I put him directly In training bc the plant grew so compact.
Well there's not much more to say I wish U a great week and hope I see U back in my next update. Stay safe.

Growingape Welcome back to my diary of this Papaya sherbet;
This week the buds got to their final size, and the plant started to get into autumn. With yellowing leaves. The smell gets more and more creamy sherbet like with a load of Papaya.
In this week I gave her a bit calmag with one watering just to be sure she won't get a deficiency in the late stage.
I'm also found the sweet spot with an 1,1ec for this pheno of this strain. The soil alone got like 1,2to1,6ec.
That should be it for this week, I will now start to reduce the Bloom and pk fertilizer in the following week. I probably stop giving the extra pk early.
Now the do nothing weeks start, the buds are only ripening.
So yeah I wish u a great week, and stay healthy.

Growingape Welcome back to my diary of this Papaya sherbet;
This week the plant got much more into autumn, the leaves which were yellow are starting to die off, others just started.
I had a bit of nutrient burn on the upper leaves but that's okay, could be signs of autumn also.
Im down with the fertilizer to an EC of 0.8 and will start to go down to 0.5 in the next week.
Making her ready for harvest in the next or the week after next week.
I noticed the smell got down in this week, I guess that's based on the age of the plant.
I'm so far ready for harvest, I just give her a few days longer than the papaya stank got.
I hope to see U back at the next update; I'm ready to harvest; see U soon stay healthy.
This strain is a beast in terms of stress resistance.
Bc of a mistake the plant stunted in growth for a week and I set her into flower anyways and she just rewarded me with very intense smelling buds.

Growingape Welcome back to the harvest of Papaya sherbet from fastbuds.
I just cut off the branches and hanged them to dry them, and will trim them dry.
In the last days I only watered with phed water and nothing else.
The buds are very great stacked, and from great density and symmetry.
The heaviest branch was 47grams wet.
I hope u liked this diary, and hope I see U back at my next diaries. I can't tell for now when they happen bc of summer break.
Have a great week and summer.
@UnorthadoxDude, I'm happy to run this diary. The run I had before was an unplanned clone of grapes n cream from cannarado I considered as chaos grow and now absolutely regret I didn't made a diary about her.
@UnorthadoxDude, Well I've got the luxury of having a source for the clones which will be persistent! Maybe the next run or the run after the next I do the strain again.
