dinosdarko Simply beautiful.....Papaya frozen
The giant according to Barneis farm says max 180 in the free range, but I'm already almost 3 meters, but by bending I keep her at 2.10 m first net at 1.40 and second net at 2.50

dinosdarko Beginning of Flowering Week 3: The bud formation is exploding on the 6-stem monster!
Welcome to my new update! My Papaya Frosting is now exactly in the 3rd week of flowering. The white hairs have been visible for about 11 days now, and the stretch is in full swing. The tips have gained an incredible height once again and are currently at [INSERT NEW HEIGHT HERE, 2.35 meters!
Here’s the secret behind this massive structure: The plant is growing on a total of 6 massive main stems! I selected 5 extremely strong “legs” (side branches) and left the original main stem intact, but only let it branch out further from a height of 1 meter. If left unbent, the branches would already be between 2.60 m and 3.00 m long! By tying it down flat with plant wire, I have perfectly directed this growth power horizontally.
Across the entire 9m² of the Double-SCROG net, the first thick bud clusters are now forming everywhere. First scrog net at 1.40, second at 2.50m.
My split watering technique (60 liters total volume with dry soil):
* 30 liters: First clear water.
* 30 liters: The full organic flowering mix afterwards.
Current dosage (per liter of the fertilized 30L mix):
* 4 ml Biobizz Bio-Bloom (Maximum power for the flowering start)
* 2 ml Biobizz Top-Max (For resin and terpene production)
* 1-2 ml Biobizz Bio-Grow (To keep the soil life active)
The massive greenhouse ensures perfect airflow with its large windows and roof openings. Thank you so much for the awesome support and all the likes on my videos!

dinosdarko 🌿 Greenhouse Monster - Update Papaya Frosting (Barney's Farm) 🌿Overview & Growth: We have officially reached the end of week 3 of flowering, and my Papaya Frosting from Barney's Farm is turning into an absolute tree! Thankfully, the hormonal growth spurt (Stretch) is over quickly, which was about time – the lady has put on a massive show and currently stands at an impressive height of 2.40 meters. Bent.Training & Structure: I put a lot of work into the selection and training in the early phase. I selected the plant to have 5 main branches (Main-Lining) and continuously pulled the main shoots from left to right. The result? An absolutely crazy crown diameter of nearly 3 meters from all sides! The massive main stem is extremely strong and already measures a proud nearly 7 cm in diameter at the base. To catch this enormous mass of plant tops, I’m using a double net setup. The first scrog net is set at 1.40 m, and the second, upper net is firmly mounted at 2.50 m. Currently, the highest tops still have exactly 10 cm of space until they reach the second net. Since the stretch is over, she will perfectly latch into the upper net in the coming days. This will give her exactly the physical stability she needs for heavy flower production in the next weeks. The distance between the nodes (internodes) is about 2.5 cm, super compact and healthy.Defoliation & Environment: This week, a radical care unit is on the agenda. With a diameter of 3 meters, an impenetrable jungle forms damn quickly. I performed thorough lollipopping and completely cleaned the lower third of the plant. All shady, tiny flower sites and large fan leaves below are gone. This way, 100% of the energy from the thick stem is directed straight into the upper main buds. It also massively improves air circulation at the bottom, as can be clearly seen in the pictures of the exposed stem.Regarding the environment: My greenhouse is 4 m wide, 8 m long, 3 m high, and sits on a deep foundation. I am very lucky to be able to keep all the large windows (1.70 m x 1.20 m) and the large main door completely open 24/7, as the greenhouse is located in a secured garden. Together with a continuous 3 cm wide air gap in the roof, the chimney effect works perfectly to immediately expel moisture and prevent condensation.Watering & Fertilization: This monster has a massive metabolism and gets thirsty every 4 to 5 days. I always water only when the top 2–3 cm of soil are dry, so that the organic soil life in the deeper root zones stays active and happy.Clear water afterwards: Immediately after, I massively water 40 to 50 liters of regular tap water. This flushes the nutrients deep into the soil, where the huge root system can absorb them perfectly. The plant loves this rhythm and shows no signs of deficiencies or over-fertilization. The first beautiful white hairs (stigmas) are popping up everywhere and stacking closely together. Since this is the extremely resin-rich Papaya Frosting, the first sparkling trichomes are already showing on the young flowers. On to week 4 for the real swelling of the buds and the famous Cali frost! 🚀

dinosdarko Tomorrow officially marks the start of the 5th flowering week, and this massive Papaya Frosting (Barney's Farm) [Barney's Farm] is turning into an absolute beauty! With an impressive height of 2.50 meters, deeply rooted in the mother earth, it has completely stopped its height growth (stretch). From now on, it is putting 100% of its energy into bud development and trichome production.
Climate & Environment: The greenhouse setup is working flawlessly. Although autumn is setting in and outside temperatures drop to a cool 5 °C to 11 °C starting at 1:00 AM, it remains completely dry inside and outside the greenhouse. No condensation, no dew on the leaves. My controlled air system runs all night long, keeping the relative humidity safely in the optimal range. With 50 cm of space between the top shoots and the greenhouse roof, air circulation above the canopy is perfect.
Plant Structure & Training: The system with the two support nets is proving to be a lifesaver. The first net is at 1.40 m, the second at about 2.20 m. The main shoots are growing straight through the mesh, giving them exactly the support they need for the enormous weight in the coming weeks.
Defoliation Strategy: I heavily defoliated the inside of the plant and only left the large fan leaves on the outside. This creates a natural "chimney effect," allowing air to flow freely through the center – optimal for air exchange and perfect protection against mold.
Lollipopping: Weak shoots below the 1.00-meter mark, which were completely in the shade, were consistently removed to direct all energy upward into the main buds.
Bud & Resin Development: The "frost" (resin formation) is absolutely brilliant for the end of the 4th week! Looking at the buds around the 1.30-meter mark, you can see extremely short internodal distances and very dense flower clusters. The pistils are long, snow-white, and full of vitality. The sugar leaves are already covered with a thick, sticky layer of white trichomes. Due to the cool temperatures in the second half of the night, I'm very curious to see if the plant will show beautiful dark autumn colors (purples) in the next two weeks.
It is absolutely healthy, robust, and ready to gain massive weight in the coming weeks!

dinosdarko Welcome to the update! The 5th week of flowering is over, and we officially start week 6 today. I have to say, the Papaya Frosting from Berner Farms is really bringing me joy right now. The genetics are showing incredible vitality here in the greenhouse.
The foundation and structure:
Let's start from the bottom: The stem has now reached a proud circumference of 6.3 cm. There’s some serious mass behind it, almost like a little tree. I never topped the plant, so the natural dominance has completely remained intact. Instead, I trained it to have five strong side branches and the main stem. This structure allows the nutrients to distribute optimally. My homemade greenhouse (8m long, 4m wide, 3m high) provides the perfect space for it. The air circulation through the large windows works great, the construction is completely sealed at the bottom, and the plant is responding excellently to the Biobizz Bio·Bloom fertilizer.
My canopy management with two nets:
To keep everything tidy at this size, I’m working with two SCROG nets. The lower net is set at 1.40 m to stabilize the branches. I initially planned the upper net at 2.50 m but have now flexibly lowered it to 2.30 m because the shoots were right underneath it. This way, I get perfect support in the crown. The main colas are now exactly 20 cm above the net. Towards the roof, I still have a good 40 to 50 cm buffer, which is important to prevent heat buildup under the panels.
Flower development and measurements:
The flower structure is phenomenal for this stage of flowering. The internode distances are extremely short, and the buds are stacking up really densely. On the middle branches, you can already see connected flower strands of almost 20 cm in length.
The absolute showpiece is the un-topped main stem: The main cola measures over 50 cm of pure flower length and stands tall above the upper net. Since no shoot tip was cut off, all the power is going into this – the buds are growing into one massive club.
Fresh, white hairs are sprouting everywhere, and a beautiful, resinous layer is slowly forming on the sugar leaves – the namesake "frost" is starting to show. The scent in the greenhouse is also becoming more intense, with a really sticky-sweet note of ripe papaya. Now the buds just need to gain some density in the coming weeks. I’ll keep you updated!
