~ 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: 5/23- Week three from seed and the second week of veg for the FastBuds Papaya Sherbet photoperiod and she's doing surprisingly well considering the crappy weather, and being eaten like a salad by slugs and a rabbit! 5/25- The diatomaceous earth that I spread around her seems to have lessened the attacks on her leaves. I've also been spraying her down every other day with Neem Oil, and every three days with an organic insecticidal soap that I'm sure has helped as well. I watered the Papaya Sherbet today via garden hose and began to train her branches a bit as well. 5/27- The FastBuds Papaya Sherbet continues to do exceptionally well with great color and vigor, putting out new growth it seems daily. 5/29- There's three weeks on the books for this little lady and I'm looking forward to see what she'll look like in the coming weeks! I will have to top dress her soon, probably in the next few days. I haven't added any dry amendments to her since I initially amended her soil and she's a hungry girl... Hope to see you next week, stay Blessed! Thank you for checking out my diary, your positive comments and support make it all worthwhile! 💚Growers Love!💚😎🙏

Die erste Woche ist da die Pfalze in der Mitte hat leider ihren Samen erst recht spät abgeworfen. Deswegen glaube ich das die bisschen gespargelt hat. Die Pflnazen schlucken langsam immer mehr Wasser. Sie fangen sehr leicht an zu riechen. Luftfeuchtigkeit immer zwischen 60-70 % Temperatur 20-25 grad

Hello everyone! Welcome to my Tent-X Ultimate Grow Challenge diary. 💪 I'm germinating 2 seeds from every of the selected cultivars on paper towels: 👉 Strawberry Cough (Dutch Passion) 👉 Mimozz (Perfect Tree) 👉 Slurricane (Advanced Seeds) 👉 Cherry Atomic Sledgehammer (Welcome To The GrowTent) Did not have much success this time - germination rate was just over 60% - my worst in years. But still - I'll get enough plants for my tent - I always try to sprout 200% of what I really need, for ocasions like this one. 😎 After they germinated I moved sprouts to easy plugs - which is wher they normally start they life (I usually ommit paper towel step and go straight into plugs). First time in years I'm really having problems with germination. The one Slurricane that did germinate seems to have broken growth cone or something - it is no growing at all. Mimozz seems like it wants to die so it probably will... I did drop one more seed just to be sure I have at least 4 plants: 👉 Grandpa's Cookies #6 S1 (ETHOS Genetics) More updates coming soon 👋 Thank you, come again! 😅

La planta aun está en pleno estirón del inicio de la floración, por lo que tengo que ir cropeandola casi a diario para mantener una altura homogénea en las ramas y que no se estire demasiado. Están comenzando a formarse los primeros brotes, aun no tiene un olor intenso pero ya huele a haze y eso es maravilloso... aun le quedan meses de floración pero ya tengo ganas de fumarmela.

Having a pop at Weedseedsexpress version of Do Si Dos. Been an interesting start as I popped 3 beans from from WSE on the 19th. The other 2 strains cam in no worries within a day and we're potted and under light on the 22nd. The D-S-D however was a no show. This morning I noticed a bit of a shoot showing so assumed she was just slower. But on closer inspection she had spun in her jiffy and the root was growing out of the Coco and the rest was underground . So i cut open the jiffy and found a rather yellow looking beginning of a plant...So I spun her around closed the plug up and will get her into a solo cup to root in.. The trouble is I got worried and have since started soaking another do si dos and a Sunset Sherbet... I swore I would stick to 3 plants and it looks like I'm on 5 again.. Maybe it is the green gods making sure I harvest enough..💚😂🌿. Some details about Do Si Dos . This GSC x Face Off OG cross is a (70%) Indica dominant hybrid with a THC content of no less than 30%! And what a beauty she is! Vivid orange pistils, sparkling white trichomes, and abundant leaves in hues of lilac and bright lime green. Besides, adding Face Off OG genetics to the natural sweetness of the Girl Scout Cookies gives this strain a pungent and earthy aroma, as well as soothing body effects. Extremely high THC levels Very resistant to mold Mellow yet uplifting effects Growing feminized Do-si-Dos seeds (indoor/outdoor) Do-si-Dos cannabis seeds do well in both indoor and outdoor environments. A greenhouse (provided it is spacious enough) will also do nicely. The Do-si-Dos strain prefers temperate (beware of cooler nighttime temperatures) Mediterranean and tropical climates. With its high fungal resistance, this variety's ideal climate is semi-humid, with a daytime temperature ranging between 70-80F /21-27 C. After germination, these feminized cannabis seeds grow into plants with long cone-shaped nugs covered in a thick layer of sweet sticky resin. The leaves are a deep hue of purple, which makes for a stunning contrast with its frosted buds and orange pistils. The feminized Do-si-Dos strain has an average flowering time of 56 to 70 days. When grown outdoors, the estimated harvest time for Do-si-Dos will be the end of September through Mid-October in the Northern Hemisphere. Grown indoor Do-si-Dos cannabis plants remain at a modest height between 80 and 100 cm. However, outdoors they can grow into quite massive plants with a max length of 250 cm. Do-si-Dos feminized yield Treat the Do-si-Dos strain right, and you will be rewarded with a high yield. This mostly Indica strain provides you with an impressive yield between 400 and 500 grams per m². Provide her with optimal conditions, and you can expect the same amount of amazing Do-si-Dos weed off every single plant after harvest, when grown outdoors. Effects of the Do-si-Dos strain With THC levels up to 30%, Do-si-Dos offers potent effects. Expect to feel happy, relaxed, and pleasantly sleepy all at the same time. Do-si-Dos strain offers a surprising mix of powerful yet gentle effects. The initial high kicks in almost immediately and brings a cerebral euphoria that lasts for only a short while before turning into a peaceful body buzz and will wash over you, leaving you in an almost meditative state. A wonderful strain to completely zone out after a stressful day at work. The seemingly minor CBD content of 1% offers surprising medicinal benefits like anti-inflammatory properties and relaxing sore muscles and joints. Furthermore, Do-si-Dos can relieve those suffering from nausea, depression, and chronic pain. And people struggling with insomnia will be especially thrilled with the solid soporific effects that send the user off to chill with mister Sandman in no time. Side effects Unlike you would expect with a parent like Girl Scout Cookies, Do-si-Dos isn't overly sweet but somewhat fruity and floral, pungent, and earthy like a typical Kush with just a hint of spices. The dominant terpene in Do-si-Dos is limonene, to which it owes its refreshing citrus tones. Origin of Do-si-Dos feminized marijuana seeds Do-si-Dos finds its origin in the US, where Archive Seed Bank created the strain in 2016. This Pacific Northwest breeder came up with the brilliant idea of crossing two OG Kush relatives: Girl Scout Cookies x Face Off OG. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- All grown under Invisible Sun X Led lighting systems with the latest Samsung LM301H Evo mint white diodes.. Nutes are liquid organics from Green Buzz . Since I switched to this brand my plants have a vigour and frost I just never achieved with any other nute range. Discount codes are available if you want to try there's a code you can use. It does nothing for me I get no benefit apart from knowing I've helped someone else discover this range..👍🏼👍🏼 minimum Order value is 75 Euro https://greenbuzzliquids.com/en/shop/ Code: GD42025

***** Week 8 Flower - November 7 to 13, 2020, Days 50 to 56 ********* Okay Growmies this is the last update until the harvest week. The girls are down now and doing their thing in the dry box 😀👍 This is the last days for Cream 47 from Sweet Seeds. They have been fun and a learning experience with topping and trying to flush too late! I must admit.......sometimes I am tired of learning, how about an autopilot run soon😂😂😂 The girls were given their last bit of moisture on Nov 7/20, Day 50 of 2L RO water. November 8/20, Day 51 they went into darkness for two full days and then cut down. They had green leaves but the bud itself is looking pretty good.......smoke in a couple of months will tell the full story of how they flushed but for now there isn't anything else we can do and they are being harvested this week. Next update will be a harvest week!

11/24 I was checking the bottom of the pot looking at the roots and I accidentally hit one of the colas off the light and it almost broke it off. Thankfully it didn’t that’s why I have that random tie connected to my tent pole. 11/27 the main colas fan leaves are really starting to fade which worries me a bit since it seems a bit too soon, but oh well we are going to ride it out. There is not much I can do at this point without making it a harsh smoke.

New week starts. ☀️08.11.2023 All in it's best. The signs of magnesium deficiancy are seen on one 'Special Queen' plant and aren't spreading. No watering today, only 'TA Bio Bloom' spraying. ☀️10.11.2023 I've watered two of my plants with 'TA Tripart'(100% of flowering formula) + 'TA Bio Bloom' + 'TA Silicates'. Spraying with 'TA Bio Bloom' also. ☀️13.11.2023 I've watered 3 of my flowers with 100% 'TA Tripart' + 'TA Bio Bloom' + 'TA Silicates'. Sprayied them all as usual.

She just had her first 4th week nutrients this morning and she's loving it. I really had my doubts about this plant making it in those early days but here she is standing taller than the rest (being a sativa hybrid helps). Day 31 - I screwed up big time last night and accidentally clipped a stem, so stupid. I decided to try my hand at cloning, lol, maybe I'll get lucky and get a baby bud.
