18h in 0,5% H2O2. Soil: The living soil was from Dope soil. The soil was used for one grow and keep alive over 5 months. 1 month ago i gave some new compost (5L) a new mulch cover. Compost tea 900 mL compost + 10 L rain water, brewed for 18h.

I think she is done stretching and is gonna start to stack some fat buds. She is starting to frost up and get a nice smell.

Well the girls are swelling up and smelling fantastic this week.Noticing the trichomes really building up lately.These papaya cookies are a very resilient strain as I’ve battled heat and humidity for a large portion of the grow and they have been doing great.Its been a blast watching these girls grow and develop.Will update later on in the week also I’m keeping light intensity set at 60 percent power because that’s what seems to make the happiest.Ive tried to pound them with light and added a co2 bag but they did not like the heat or extra light.I used some organic Unsulphured Blackstrap Molasses to add some sugars and a dash of epsom salts for a little more Magnesium.Ive been back and forth in my brain with the light intensity and Day 52 now set at 80 percent power.Reading some reviews of this strain she is a sun lover I believe so I’m just going to let them have it.Some of the fan leaves are fried some curling and fading but the new growth looks healthy and the buds are looking amazing..I’ll give them a final haircut later on this weekend.

I finally had some time to harvest everything, left her for 2 days in the dark in a vase. The smell was so intense in comparison to the painkiller. Since it rained a lot there was some bud rot but I guess that was inevitable. The honey cream still grows strong has no bud rot since the buds seem fluffy enough for a good airflow.

Una semana bastante tranquila. Ni bichos ni carencias preocupantes, todo en orden. Así empezaba la semana si, no se veía nada hasta que ..... Y así se termina con todas mis ilusiones , no me arriesgo a perder mucho más y aun faltándoles bien bien 15-20 dias voy a cortar por lo sano. Prefiero cristalinos y poco a tener que deshacerme de la mitad por la botritis.

I was away for the entire week. I have no watering systems so I just saturated before I left. The plant had just dried up when I was back, but showing light nutrient deficiecies.

This week marks the present day at the time of writing since i started the journal on here on oct 6th. Plant A also started to purple up real good. Plant B overall is a few days ahead in flower production i would say, Plant A also stretched for a day or so more - but im happy as to how absolutely even and similiar they grow. Really been an absolute blast and treat so far. Hats off to fastbuds! I stayed at 2.5L watering dosages, Ramping up Grow and Activera to 3 ml/L according to the biobizz schedule. PH in stays at 6,5, Drain stays at 6.1 for both plants. Im happy. They do be looking absolutely gorgeous in my eyes! i kept and keep on lightly defoliating them on watering days, sometimes also in between, but now mainly the small leaves of the bushwork inside that dont receive any light at all. Also, i got a new webcam for better quality timelapse shenanigans. yay! PPFD now sits at around 1000.

Growing and growing and growing..... This week i ramped up the ppfd to 750 by also bringing the light a good bit closer. Because i got scared by the crack in the previos week, which now showed, i didnt do any more LST-bending shenanigans, though im quite sure it wouldve been already too late for that, as both of the BPPs were growing some dummy thicc stems! Water dosage ramped up to 2.5L which is or is really close to full saturation. PH in stays at 6,5 and out is now around 6,1 and im happy with that. Each plant received 2 ml/L of activera, biogrow and biobloom and 1 ml/L of topmax respectively. They were really putting on some weight. i mainly defoliated a bit, mostly fanleaves that were blocking budsites. in retrospect, i shouldve more aggressively removed whole sidenodes from the inside, because its getting real crowdy in there now. On the last day of week 5, they were growing some nice Flowersides AND - Plant B already started to make a name for herself - she started to purple up!

This week marked the start of flowering - they were showing sex and soon you could make out the little preflower budsites on both of them! This week also marked the start of their explosive grow-stretch phase. Looking back, i should have trained way more aggressive. but not TOO aggressive! on Day 21, i adjusted a prexisting stake too hard and plant Bs main trunk snapped in the middle. (I only fully noticed this in the next week, i just heard a snap but didnt visually see anything, the crack really formed over the next couple of days) A shock for me as an inexperienced grower - but again, as with everything so far, the BPP just. did. not. care. at all. i supported her with some stakes from below and rubbercoated garden wire, but honestly, the plant took good care of itself. Note to self - train early, train evenly, and test flexibility BEFORE adjusting :P Ramped up PPFD to about 600 and Watering to 1,5L on Day 21 and 2L on Day 25. They were getting thirsty! Day 21 was the last time i added root juice with 1 ml/L, and Day 25 i began adding Flowering Nutes and Stims with BioBloom and Topmax, 1ml/L each per plant. PH with both waterings was 6,5. Didnt measure Drain PH cause i was lazy. Also defoliated leaves that were blocking out future budsites. So far, they didnt care about topping, staking them down, defoliating, and Plant B also didnt care 1 bit about being literally ripped in half. i am impressed.

Nothing much happened - besides them growing! Watered * 300 ml on day 1, * 400 ml on day 3, * 600 ml on day 6 per plant and with 2 ml/L of rootjuice and activera. Both were growing super "uniform" and similiar to each other. Over the course of the week, i ramped up the light up to 350 ppfd - but im sure they couldve taken a lot more!

Both were growing like absolute champs! I decided to top really early. i follow basementganjas rules, i will only top autos if they grow like champs, trunksize 3mm, 99% healthy, sidenodes have substantial grow, and are between days 12-16. i topped these on day 12, mainly because at the rate they were growing, i feared they were to put too much time and energy into the top nodes i planned on removing. Also, it would be interesting to see how they handled it. AND BOY, handled it, they did! The 600 ml Dosage of water and nutes from Day 6 lasted all the way to Day 11. On Day 11, i added 1 ml/L of Bio Grow from Biobizz and watered both of them with 1 Liter of tapwater, ph'd down to between 6,2 - 6.3. As mentioned, even though the sidenodes were a tad small for my likings, they did not seem to care. see next week for the further progress!

Topping didnt seem to stunt the grow. On Day 15, i added some training stakes. This being my 2nd grow overall, i couldve done way better there, as youll see in the coming weeks. Plant A has had one Sidenode growing faster than the opposing one and it led to a bit of asymmetrical grow, though thats my mistake, not the BPPs. also, for future grows, i'd train the top nodes down even further, as they would soon overtake the other ones. I planned to have 4 main stems but ended up with a weird 2-2 hybrid, lol. But oh well! you live and learn haha. i ramped up the ppfd to around 500. Again, they probably couldve easily taken more. i watered 1.5 Liters on Day 15 - Giving 2.5 ml/L of rootjuice this time and ramping up biogrow to 2 ml/L. This was the first time i had a little bit of runoff to measure the drain ph, which was 5.9 and 5.7 respectively, quite ok, but a tad on the low end for my taste, so for future waterings i reminded myself to give slightly higher input ph.
