~ 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: 7/18- Well, we're now going into the 10th week of veg for this FastBuds Papaya Sherbet photoperiod. She's becoming quite the tall lady with wide node spacing and a classic 'Christmas tree' shape. Her overall health and vigor have remained excellent and she's tolerating our oppressive heat with out complaint! 7/20- The daily watering of 5g continues, as does the hot weather. 7/22- Yesterday, I top dressed the FastBuds Papaya Sherbet photoperiod with 2 1/2 cups of Gaia Green 2-8-4 along with 1 cup of Down To Earth Bio-Fish 7-7-2 and 1/2g of Wiggle Worm castings. After top dressing and working the amendments in by hand I replaced the straw coating over the soil and watered them in with 5g of straight well water via garden hose as usual. Today I resumed my regular watering routine, watering late in the afternoon with 5g of well water from the garden hose. 7/24- There goes ten weeks of veg for the FastBuds Papaya Sherbet photo and she shows no signs of slowing her vertical growth at this time. I am hoping that with our daylight hours slowly diminishing, the Papaya Sherbet will begin to transition into flower in the next few weeks so that it won't be late October before she's ready to harvest... we will see! Thank you for checking out my diary, your positive comments and support make it all worthwhile! 💚Growers Love!💚😎🙏

Week 8 of our Lego Ninja Tropical Tangie Run has been an incredible rollercoaster of growth and excitement. Our Tangie is evolving into a true botanical ninja superstar! With her rapid growth, I made a bold decision to give her a full defoliation! What does this mean? Well, it's like a ninja makeover, where we removed all the leaves from her stems. Don't worry, it might sound drastic, but it's a ninja-approved technique used to maximize her potential. During this process, I carefully removed every leaf, allowing more light to reach the lower branches and bud sites. It's like clearing the path for her to channel all her energy into producing top-quality buds. Our Tangie is a champion, and she took this defoliation challenge like a true ninja warrior! After the defoliation, I was amazed to see how quickly she bounced back. She's incredibly resilient! You wouldn't even notice she underwent such a transformation; the grow room is already looking lush and vibrant again. Now, with all the unnecessary leaves gone, she can focus her energy on producing larger, denser, and more potent buds. It's like giving her a clear ninja path to success! But let's not forget the most important part—nutrition. With her full defoliation, it's essential to provide her with the perfect fuel for her ninja journey. I continue to rely on the powerful Aptus All-in-One Pellets, which act as her trusty ninja power capsules, delivering all the essential nutrients she needs with each watering. The canopy is filling up once again, and our Tangie is now ready to continue her incredible growth journey. The room looks as if no defoliation ever happened! Thanks to the support and fantastic products from Aptus Holland, Dutch Passion, and Grow Diaries, our Tangie keeps showing us her ninja potential. Stay tuned for the next update, where we'll dive deeper into our Tangie's growth and unveil more ninja training techniques. Keep cultivating with joy, embrace the ninja spirit, and remember, with love and passion, anything is possible in the world of growing!

I'm amazed how my first grow ended up, I'm excited to see my improvements on future grow! Will update Harvest details once the drying is done!

The start of flower wars very good, we got the first flower nutrients. It will be a Monster plant again

We’re now fully in production mode!🔥 The stretch is definitely done, and she’s putting all her energy into bud development. The trichomes are multiplying nicely, and the smell is becoming more and more intense, fresh lemon with a subtle sweet twist.🍋🍬 The bud structure is quite different from what I’m used to, more airy and elongated, kind of sativa-like. Curious to see how this one finishes up. Still healthy, still cruising, let’s see what next week brings!

Haven’t posted in a while it’s been 68 days since I’ve planted. Nearly at 10 weeks. Growing slower than I thought I would. The white hairs are growing just waiting for the buds to fatten up now!

Good morning, time for the weekly update! Today is day 34 of flower and I’m starting to miss the training, topping, and busy days of veg growth! Just peek in on them once a day and water anymore, getting boring! Last week they got one watering with silica and one with fish shit, week 6 of flower is starting so after this week I’ll probably just be giving them plain ph water. I hope the flowers have stacked well and start to put on some weight now, maybe you guys can give me some feed back on how the buds are looking at this stage! Thanks for reading see ya next week :)

I continue with the same setting. I have 18/6 nice grow and flowering. Plants are healthy. This week I just started with Green sensation additive.

This was a seed from Skunk Fem V1 lets see how it turns out male or female.

Strange hot week in the very end of Summer I had to write something here to post this😄😄

She is doing great getting her feeding twice a week and hasn't shown any signs of stress or nutrient lockout ...good strain and smells tasty like fruity sugar or Berries . Did no training to this girl and she has a nice structure to her , great genetics so far with this grow looking forward to next week's growth cheers canna family ..

Hi guys So end of week 7 entering week 8. Blue cheese stinks buds are solid the dark phoenix scrog is frosty asf!!! They still have a way to go yet tho. I reckon by day 70 all will be well and done There under a 600watt hps light now to finish them off as using the led lights in my pot noodle grow off with wifey. I just started a YouTube channel I will be doing daily videos on my current run, like subscribe and comment on there for shout outs. Happy growing guys! 😁

2 weeks more to change cycle. Lower canopies should grow more in those weeks. Thats why i am doing lst 23.09.2022 gave them only water with 6,3 PH. and had %10 runoff from each other. 23.09.2022 I added an other 100w samsung lm281b+ quantum board with 660nm red. Will add 240w quantum board after flowering time. 23.09.2022 Had a very light defolation. Took 2 leaves from top which shade buds. She seem happy. 24.09.2022 she seem okay, growing. 25.09.2022 transplanted her into final pot 25lt. 40% soil 40% coco %20 perlite. Watered her with half those 1.5lt/5ml grow A-B. Her leaves looking down. Think it happened cuz of transplanting and stressted a bit. Also took 6 M-L size leaves which making shade on buds. 26.09.2022 She is out of transplant stress and seem fine! I think she will be in bloom in 10 days..

The plant keeps maturing but is not there yet. I'm not the biggest fan of how it grew (long and slender) but might be a combination of the fertilizer choice and the new light. Anyways this plant should not have any mold issues ^^ Should be done i 1 or two weeks :)

We upgraded! Really thrilled with the new setup. Much better than those cardboard boxes. Pine tree kush was having issues due to the size of the makeshift setup so this tent was very much needed. No nutes as I just transplanted into new soil. I’ll give it a week before I decide if she’ll get one more round of fertilizer before we stop before harvesting.

week 5 when the thrips first showed themselves. I noticed them cuz some silver stains started appearing on some leaves. you can see them better under LED light. So, I sprayed Neem Oil all over the plant. I could notice that if you don't do it well, spraying and rubbing the leaves with a piece of cloth, the oil will also create some stains. 2nd topping. killed some thrips this week, they're cute and didn't seem to harm the plant seriously. Neem oil worked fine to control them. No other pests that I could notice + Defoliation + LST Flowermind (4ml + 0.5g)

Update coming.
