Chopped her on day 83 from sprout. Discovered some Bananas on Christmas, the plant looked due anyway so no worries, wanted to chop her anyway, guess I was right with the timing and the plant showed me it is done and did a last attempt to pollinate itself, normal behavior in my opinion, also the Bananas were blanks, didn't see any pollen. Overall great strain, will use this strain to test the limits of the prototype of my new hydro system. No mold or anything, vigorous growth, easy to train, stems did bend and not snap but are stiff enough to hold their weight. Buds are very dense, some might think the buds are a little small but there are a lot of them, good sizes in my opinion, perfect little ready to take with you buds. Even the buds are the bottom are dense, I had lights at the bottom but even inside the canopy with little light they are dense! Plant turned purple wherever there was intense light on it, visible on the short clip I took of a top branch where below the bud where there is shadow from the bud above is the branch is green and a little lower where light reaches it turned purple. This purpeling in my opinion is a great and normal feature in plants overall, probably do not expect a purple plant unless you go with intense lightning and high CO2 values to handle it. 9/10 because it hermed at the very end, didn't hurt the result because the plant was done but it would be nice if it wouldn't do it to maybe let it go some more and trade THC for more CBN and even more yield, total yield is good as it is but more is always better :) Whoever reads this at the very bottom... I hope this diary helps you out for your next grow. I hope this diary also shows that fertilizer brands are more marketing than anything, my fertilizer costs me ~ 1/5 compared to Canna, Plagron etc. etc. and it works great. Yara is used for example by Demecan a medical Cannabis producers, if they use it why not you? This is no advertisement for Yara, use Haifa or whatever just maybe don't buy overpriced fertilizer with big marketing and rather put that saved money in good quality genetic seeds. If you've got any tips, ideas, questions or whatever please leave a comment :) Update: added some pictures of roots after I harvested my other plant for obvious reasons, had to saw of the Net Cup because I did not manage to remove it, to many roots. Update: dried weight is 320g total, smoked a little besides that so maybe 330? didn't count how much so I didn't add that to the total, but it was a little more. Tastes like Wrigley's Spearmint gum! Will definitely grow this one again, so far my #1 from what I've grown, just dense, frosty and good tasting, can't really complain. 🙏 In case anyone from Mephisto reads this, make this a permanently available Strain 🙏

This lady is certainly a a dark horse, the smell is amazing.. an old school smell that reminds me of my times in Amsterdam many years back. She is showing no signs of nutrition issues, and the buds are swelling at rapid rate. They are dense and pungent with a fruity hint.

Week 8 pics are just screenshots from vids. Been trying nugs since week 6.

Day 15: From today, 600W LED is placed. Ventilation runs at the same time when the lamp is on +15min after the lamp is off. 20 hours on, 4hours off. Fertilization starts on Monday, Wednesday, Friday with Epsom salt, Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday with bat guano. Water intake 25ml per plant per day plus some triggering spray. Critical Orange is already so tall. Day 16: They are pretty cool and like the new environment I mean ventilation and the new powerfull LED. As it can be seen in the picture one is really small. It happened because this is the 2nd Sour Orange seed that was planted after them because one seed has died the Super Skunk so I replaced with an other Sour Orange. Day 17: I burnt Critical Ora ge Punch and Lemon Zkittle because of the triggering spray and the lamp I can see the leaves... I will stop using triggering... Not the first time.... They will survive anyways... Day 18: Thet are stable now ventilation does not shock them that much. Lemon Zkittle and especially Critically Orange Punch burnt badly. When these get bushier and bigger I will remove those ugly parts. Day 20: No picture was taken yesterday, they are strong enough now so the ventilation is fine. Lemon Zkittle and Critical Orange Punch still look burnt next week may be the chance to remove those leaves.

Really satisfied with my girls Buds are gettin denser and bigger Very fast strain - big up for anesia seeds

June 16: Topped and LST'd Temperature: [Day 75-78°F/Night 73 - 75°F] Humidity: [50 - 60%] Weekly Comments: J16: looking good, topped 2/3 just for fun to see.... ppfd around 4-500, next week is when I will begin runoff-waterings as I expect by then the roots will be well established post transplant

This lady looks beautiful on her first week,she's a healthy seedling,hope she can develop properly,she's got everything she needs to do so. Peace ✌️ 💚 PD I had 2 but as I saw that after 5 days did not started to develop I took her off so I kept the healthy one. 😊

~ FastBuds PAPAYA SHERBET Photoperiod~ Well here we go on another journey together through 'Canna-land' and this one's kinda special... forget that, it's VERY special because this is FastBuds newest surprise for the community, a FEMINIZED PHOTOPERIOD STRAIN!🤯 I was fortunate enough to score these seeds, of which only 1000 were available and can't wait to see what this strain can do! This Papaya Sherbet, according to FastBuds, is a hybrid with a 9-10 weeks flowering period. For a more detailed and accurate description of this strain the following from FastBuds says it best: "Combining the massive stature of Papaya (Oni Selection) with the strength and resilience of one of our best keeper cuts (Sunset Sherbet), this strain develops into a big, expansive bush adorned with numerous bud sites that later transform into a generous harvest of medium-sized buds. Papaya Sherbet flowers deliver a signature flavor of premium cannabis with subtle citrus undertones that emerge upon inhaling. During growth, her aroma makes for a sweet yet pleasantly bitter fragrance, giving you an idea of what the smoke will taste like. Notably stress-resistant, Papaya Sherbet is a great choice for growers working in challenging environments. She is very forgiving and rebounds quickly from any adversity, allowing growers the freedom to experiment with confidence that she will take everything like a champion she is. This strain embodies resilience, flavor, and abundant yields in every grow cycle." Sounds like an epic strain and I personally cannot wait for this lady to strut her stuff!😍 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Setup: This is going to be an outdoor grow, but I have started the Papaya Sherbet photoperiod indoors as our weather is still a bit too chilly to put a newly sprouted seedling outside (nighttime temp's dipping regularly into the 40's℉). The plan is simple... let her grow inside under a 19/5 light schedule until the nighttime temperatures are in the mid 50's℉, which shouldn't be long. After which, she'll be moved outside and transplanted into the soil which I have already setup and inoculated with beneficial microbes from BioTabs and slow release dry amendments from Gaia Green. Once she's established herself outside she'll be given periodic top dressings of Gaia Green 4-4-4 and 2-8-4 along with worm castings and Compost Tea's. Her grow area is approx. 5'x5' and I have posts and a trellis net set up already for when she gets bigger to aid in training her. Let the fun begin!🤪💚 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Weekly Updates: 9/28- The Seventh week of flower is here for the Papaya Sherbet Fem Photo by FastBuds and this lady is looking glorious! 9/30- The weather continues to be cool which is great, the downside is at night we're having heavy dew, which has me concerned about Boytris setting in so I'll start monitoring the flowers daily, removing any showing even the slightest sign of rot beginning. 10/2- My daily routine of watering, removing dead foliage and checking over the Papaya Sherbet continues. 10/4- With the seventh week of flowering behind her now, the FastBuds Papaya Sherbet photoperiod is quickly approaching the end of the road! Next week I will be monitoring the trichomes to try to dial in the ideal harvest time, and at the same time keeping my fingers crossed that she isn't overcome with Boytris... 🤞🤞 Thank you for checking out my diary, your positive comments and support make it all worthwhile! 💚Growers Love!💚😎🙏

Some rainy days and some sunny days this week. Warm temperature but not too hot. I started to look at the trichomes and they begin to turn cloudy. Some big leaves start to turn yellow.

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.

Day 71. Biggest by size, but maybe not by overall weight of harvest ;)))) she is most hungry and lost foliage... This girl definetly makes me regret, that i didn't use any nutes ... Smell is weakish, worst from all 3 . Mars TS1000 did a great job to her during veg, but now she spends time under my quantum board. Took most damaged leaves away. 3.5 liters of water goes in. Day 76. 3.5 liters in. Lower part is far from maturity, she needs like 3 weeks still i think. Getting some funky colours ... Happy Growing !!!

Great week with incredible growth. Responded very well to the topping and LST, just like their mother. Will continue with LST and some light HST until I'm satisfied with canopy coverage. Updates as the week goes. -8/18 - Further LST and some HST was used to try and spread the plants horizontally even more. -8/20 - Watering today, then a bit of HST. Growth is going well.

well my girl is in her final days. My scope is broken so I need some insight, her flowers look so ripe, this update had to be for tomorrow but she looks so good don't want to get an over ripe bud need her to be perfect✂️✂️✂️✂️✂️✂️✂️✂️✂️✂️🔍🔍🔍

5 week veg was too long IMO for the size of pots...8 week flowering but she changes rather quickly...nothing really and then boom a see of orange...wonderful tricoms...broke 2 plants down and hung for 6 days the other 2 got hung whole for 10...all is jarred up and curing and cant wait to taste her full potential...took a sample bud but speed drying does no justice to taste and strenght any how the ash was light gray to almost white so 2 weeks of just water seemed to do the trick but we will see...

Finalmente è percepibile l'esplosione della fioritura💣 forse un leggero blocco dovuto agli sbalzi di temperatura esterni di questi giorni che influivano nella mia grow room.. I terpeni sono di un'altro pianeta, comincia a ghiacciati come un iceberg 😂💚 speriamo che continui così e che l'imprevisto mi faccia arrivare comunque ad un buon raccolto

March 08 I left the air purifier on by accident again last night so there was a blue light overnight. The buds look good though. I taped the window up so I'm no longer having a humidity issue at night. I alternate between having the light on at 100% and 75% and recently 50% as well. March 10 I just fed them Ph'd water with molasses. Runoff pH 6.2-6.5, ppm 200-600. I'm having trouble getting good shots of the trichromes but I'm starting to see more amber ones. Less than 5%.

Hey yall, Temps were high, but under control now. My girls were droopy despite having moist soil. After a good compost tea they bounced right back. Pistol hairs are showing, haven't grown this specific cultivar before so the bud structure is a but different than others I am familiar with. Let's see what she does moving forward. I am not a super fan of these genetics. Already have new seeds I am ready to start once these ladies are done. Over all the Strawberry Diesel from Beaver Seeds is not a noob grow, you need to have your grow dialed in. And really be careful with PM. I am keeping humidity as low as I cam while still maintaining a decent VPD. Challenges with this strain definitely turns me off. Looking forward to a new cultivar, already have some genetics from Michigan, those cats are really something else, they are hellbent on being better than the West coast. And they are in my humble opinion 😌 ☺️ Pure Michigan looks good, also Honey Sticks Genetics out of Maine is killing it, their Bananaconda 4 tested over 40% total cannabinoids. They want like 3k per cut, so that won't be my next, but looking forward to new genetics nonetheless. Anyways made some new ferments, remember to use equal parts organic sugar, Jaggery is best, that is the closest form of sugar to the sugar cane plant. Cover with paper towel, 2 to 3 days later let gravity give you all that juice, don't squeeze it to get more. Keep that juice in the fridge, that is your food. Then add water to the solids and keep at room temperature for 3 months to make a vinegar. That is your cleanser. Ask questions please 🙏 Love to see others trying KNF, or simply put Natural Farming methods.
