~ 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: 6/16- Week Six is here and the Papaya Sherbet from FastBuds is beginning to finally take off! Our weather is beautiful now with daytime high temp's in the 80's F without a lot of rain so I am watering her daily at sundown with approximately 5-7g of well water. 6/18- I gave the Papaya Sherbet photoperiod a good watering today at sundown via the garden hose with straight well water. 6/20- I watered today and also did a little canopy maintenance, removing some leaves down low, along with some small shoots that would only sap energy better used elsewhere on the plant in the future. 6/22- Six weeks from seed and I have a sneaking suspicion that the FastBuds PApaya Sherbet photoperiod is getting ready to take off in a big way! I could be wrong, but we'll have to wait and see! Thank you for checking out my diary, your positive comments and support make it all worthwhile! 💚Growers Love!💚😎🙏

Seeming like we are going to be harvesting in the next week or so. So we are moving on to flushing. Watering twice a week with ph balanced water. No nutrients.

fast eddy measures 60 cm, the 3 gelato cookies between 70 and 80 cm, the 3 northern light from 90 cm to 1 meter 20, the smell is stronger when the tent is opened, major heat problem solved thanks to a portable air conditioning🍀

Yum yum here they come

Day 43 does some bottom leaves trimming. Day 46. Watering with 2.5L nutrients mix.

Defo going keep going with f1 I have more still growing and there the biggest plants I've had thanks zameizia you guys are amazing

Die Ladys sind jetzt ordentlich am wachsen

Stretch is done and flowers are piling on now! I treated with lost coast as a preventative. I kept the feed the same but it will be altered end of grow week. Canopy is getting hella full can't wait to watch these colas stack on. Until next update. Happy growing and stay lit fam.

small timelapse more comments and good pictures follow up, slowly my eyes are going better and better and I can come back to fully commitment again. Plant 1: Topping and LST done by scrogging Plant 2: Heavy LST on Mainstem and LST done by scrogging Plant 3: smallest plant, done nothing stunted early by a bit to much nutients + water (seed poped 3 days later treated the same because no time). Loads of fun right now with those plants and just for refence guys its JUST a 5Liter pot!!!!

10/5/19 Day 43. Removed a few fan leaves and lowered the height of the lamp to flowering distance. The plant is just starting to show pistals. No feed today. Think all is good. 11/5/19 Day 44. Fed 1.5L. 3.0ml/L coco A and 3.0ml coco B, 1.0ml silicon, 0.5ml cal mag, 1.5ml boost. Ph 6.0 Ec2.1 run off 0.4L ph 6.4 ec 2.3 So far so good really, if anyone thinks I'm doing anything wrong then give me a shout. 12/5/19 Fed 2L. 3.5ml/L coco A and 3.5ml coco B, 1ml silicon, 0.5ml cal mag, 1.5ml boost. Ph5.9 Ec2.5 run off 1.5L Ph 6.3 Ec2.3 13/5/19 Day 46 fed 1L. 3.0ml/L coco a and b, 1ml silicon, 0.5ml cal mag, 1.5ml boost. Ph6.0 Ec2.3. run off 0.5L Ph6.4 Ec 2.5 Going to start reducing Coco a and b, then adding Pk9/18 soon. 14/5/19 Day 47. No feed today, just did a little more LST and leaf tucking. Think that's it for the LST. May release all the clamps in next few days and drop my net on it. 15/5/19 Day 48. Decided to release the plant from the LST, I have managed to get the hole canopy level with a cig box, so with it hopefully flower any day now it can stretch evenly (touch wood). Also removes a load of fan leaves. Fed 2L. 2.5ml/L coco A&B, 1ml silicon, 1ml cal mag, 1.5ml boost. Ph6.0 Ec2.1 Run off 0.7L Ph6.4 Ec2.9. yikes that's a big jump for my run off on the Ec. So fed again but 1L and changed A&B from 2.5ml/L to 2.0ml/L. Final Ph6.0 Ec1.9 Run off 0.6L Ph 6.3 Ec2.5 Going to try and get the run off down a bit more 2mo. Looks like I might have to feed once a day from this point onwards. 16/5/19 Day 49. Week hasn't gone as expected, I thought pistils would be showing by now. I am going to leave it released from the LST for a while and apply when it starts to get uneven again. I do think I have got the canopy quite even. Fed 2L. 2ml/L coco A&B, 1ml silicon, 0.25ml cal mag, 1.5ml boost. Ph 5.9 Ec 1.6 Run off 1.4 L Ph 6.3 Ec 2.6. This is quite high which I think is caused by my boosting agent. I might ditch sumo boost and try something else.

420 Fastbuds Amnesia Haze Auto Week 4 This week has been exciting for sure. Since the mild defoliation I did a week ago, they bounced back like I never took any leaves off to begin with. I still have only watered 2 liters of straight well water daily and they seem to be absolutely fine. All in all Happy Growing Everyone.

whatever it is, it's a pity, but you can't fight with Nature :) as far as I can see from the drone flight, the girls are simply gone :D:D they are under water,.... it's a pity.... it rained a lot during the week, there is a river 300m away which flooded, here is the result: D I see this for the first time in 9 years .... well, nothing new automatic seeds, already thrown into the ground :) so I will wait for new girls :).

Checking trichomes for cloudy looks. Still got a ways to go Flushing started 1/1/21 Reading trichomes is tough

We start the first week before sprouted! We are excited to look the grow on RDWC!!

Muy buenas familia hoy terminamos la 3° semana y damos comiendo a la 4° y bueno como vemos ya están empezando a engordar mis niñas 😁😁estos últimos días e visto en una planta como si se estuviese pasado de alimento y este riego sólo le puse el agua en un 6 pH y veré como va avanzando aún que siempre pongo el mínimo de la tabla pero no se a lo mejor estoy equivocado y más bien le falta en ves de sobrarle les iré contando pero están muy bonitas como siempre familia si tenéis algún Consejo alguna crítica bienvenida es un abrazo familia y buenos humos paz

Nothing new to report really, other than that they are thriving. The heads are getting bigger and bigger and the branches are filling up with flowers. I'm going to keep the fertilizer steady at this level for this week and see them grow each day. Really a lovely process to watch this plant grow.

Let the girls do their thing for the most part this last week. Started to stack up real nice, started to notice white pistils coming in. After 2-3 days there were more popping up and some beginning to flush to orange. Decided to LST and defol one last time, watered without any nutes. Today marks week 5 with the ladies, and I will officially say they are ending their veg cycle and transitioning into flower. Cranked the fans up tonight to circulate more air, tapering humidity down. Been pretty easy going so far
