~ 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: 7/2- Eight weeks since breaking ground and the FastBuds Papaya Sherbet photoperiod is really starting to get going now despite our extremely hot and humid weather. The weather continues to be hot and humid and the daily watering continues. 7/4- 🎉HAPPY 4th of JULY!🎉 The FastBuds Papaya Sherbet photo has taken the heat like a champ and is transforming into a very LARGE and beautiful lady! She's over 5 feet tall now and is stretching! She has maintained excellent vigor, color and has shown great resistance to pests and other stressors! 7/6- Yesterday we had a thunderstorm pass through early in the day, which provided about an inch of rain in a short time. I went ahead and watered in the afternoon, but only gave the Papaya Sherbet photoperiod approx. 3g of water from the well, via garden hose.🌱🚿. 7/8- The daily watering continues, as does our blistering hot🔥weather. All is well with the FastBuds Papaya Sherbet photoperiod and today, after watering her with 5g of well water, I gave her a good going over, looking at all the leaves topside and underneath and removing any leaves that were either yellowing or had other issues. Well folks, Week Eight is a wrap and the Papaya Sherbet photoperiod from FastBuds is going strong! See ya next week! Thank you for checking out my diary, your positive comments and support make it all worthwhile! 💚Growers Love!💚😎🙏

Allora.... Questa settimana ha ripreso veramente tanto! La settimana scorsa era rimasta un po' indietro rispetto le sue amiche (diverse genetiche) ma adesso ha veramente dato il suo scatto è ha rivelato che è all'altezza delle sue compagne di crescita! Anche lei sembra che si stia iniziando a riempire bene e ho deciso di togliere qualche internodo centrale per favorire l'areazione ed evitare eventuali sorprese di muffe più in là( anche se non ho mai avuto problemi meglio prevenire che curare)...non vedo l'ora che si inizi a gonfiare un po' perché sono molto curioso di questa genetica! Ha un 29% di THC quindi dovrebbe essere adatta a me .... speriamo bene e incrociamo le dita! Nel frattempo volevo ribadire la potenza di questi prodotti di Cannaboom! Sto usando tutta la linea full cream (con qualche aiuto della linea minerale tipo il loro CALMAG(SI) ) che oltre ad essere un semplice Cal Mag contiene anche silicio e ferro! Veramente adatto a le piante per fare assimilare meglio potassio e fosforo! Credetemi che con solo due applicazioni ho potuto vedere delle differenze esuberanti! Infatti speromtanto di continuare a usare i loro prodotti perché mi stanno veramente aiutando a spaccare questa growbox da 100x100! Quindi ancora grazie a CANNABOOM! Un grande grazie speciale a tutto il team di anesia che mi ha fornito questa splendida nuovissima e potente genetica! Spero che piaccia come uscirà il diario! Ma alla fine ci saranno delle sorprese per tutti quindi rimanete sintonizzati! 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼 Seguitemi anche su Instagram sul mio profilo curati_da_solo🔥🔥🔥🔥

Been battling caterpillars & powdery mildew , gave them both a spray over night with some Lost Coast Therapy for the mildew & I will be spraying in another day or two with Monterey BT for the caterpillars, a lot of the mildew disappeared, about two more applications it should be totally gone. This will literally be my last major outside grow

This week it's all about the 8 White Widow clones, rooted well in shallow water bath with .5ml pH perfect Grow in the water. Long roots sprouted through the rockwool and they didn't seem to be inhibited by the 50w led. Now transplanted into their 1L pots with fresh soil substrate, no additives. Transplanted 2 clones into rockwool now in 1 pot, see how they (Cerberus) develops. Harvested the clone cuttings on 24/8/2020, took approx just over 2 weeks (17 days) to develop the long roots seen in the pics above. Kept the water feed fresh every 3/4 days to prevent algae build up. Switched to 12/12 11/9/2020 Unfortunately, I had to pull this grow, it was painful to ditch the plants as the grow was going well but i had to move house and couldn't take them with me.

Day 72: 600W LED, 18 hours on 6 hours off the same with ventilation. Ferilization is the same except BlackBerry Kush and LSD-25 they are being flushed. Water intake also remains the same 200ml per day. Humidity approx 35 percent. Day 74: BlackBerry Kush and LSD-25 have to be harvested this week Friday so no more water. Colorado Cookies and Northern Light next week so started flushing them. Glueberry OG needs a bit more time.

Harvest time is not far! I tried to put ice cubes on the soil so it makes the color even more purple but it’s the first time that I try this method French macaron are getting a nice purple color

Things are getting frosty around here! Critical Cures are at the top of the class. Critical Mass is in second. Charlotte's Angels are in third. Durga Mata is in fourth, with Blue Shark rounding out the pack as far as blooms are concerned, and how far along they are. This week I used the last of my "Tiger Bloom" and "Big Bloom" and I didn't feel like buying more, so I started making compost tea! It comes from my pile that consists of kitchen scraps, horse, chicken and sheep manure. They seem to be liking it. I also gave them a little nitrogen foliar spray this morning. I've had to spray insecticidal soap twice this week. Smells so fragrant out there, it's attracting a lot of bugs. I sent a pic of one of the Critical Cure's to a friend of mine saying "Not long now!" (As in like 3-4 weeks on this particular plant) to which he replied: "You've still got 6-7 weeks!" No, just no. Same guy also told me my plants would be 8 ft high. Ha! Silly boys.

easy to grow and comes with n amazing nose 👃... i could not believe the candy type smell that this lady is putting out, i'm kind of in love.... smooth amazing high with a stress and pain relief you wouldn't believe! it takes anxiety away like nothing and tastes overall amazing, big and kind of dense buds! 2nd place in bud structure ✅

Bueno, así terminamos la fase de vegetación. Cometimos algunos errores, aunque se pudo solucionar. Cada día aprendiendo mucho y mejorando para que esta nueva etapa sea muy frutuosa. Muy feliz con lo logrado y cómo se ven las bebés hasta ahora. Próxima semana, floración. Vamos con toda en esta siguiente etapa con mucha emoción de ver cómo se estiran y salen sus pistilos, nos vemos la próxima semana con lo que será la primera semana de flora en estas bebés

Día 32. Esta semana corté los esquejes. El dia 30 de crecimiento. Saqué 8 y los puse a enraizar en lana de roca, dentro de media botella de 6lt tapada con otra mitad. Mantengo la solución de la semana anterior. Hasta ahora la planta se ve muy bien. Ya dentro de una semana espero tener raíces y pasarlas al indoor de arriba con la madre. La configuración del espacio va a ser un desafío dado que la madre tiene las ramas muy abiertas. A primera idea, supongo que haré que los costados sean ocupados por la madre y guiaré los 4 esquejes para que ocupen el centro del indoor. De todos modos seguro aplique tecnicas de guiado y/o cortes en los esquejes. Una vez arriba pienso darles una semana de crecimiento y ver, en base al tamaño que tengan, si ya los paso a floración. Quiero aprovechar el primer cultivo para tener una referencia de espacio y tamaño. El tiempo va pasando más rápido de lo que imaginé y ver los cambios tan rápidos ha ayudado. Debo admitir que soy un poco obsesivo y eso me hace más fanático de la hidroponia, ya que el cultivo es más limpio y mucho más rápido para crecer. Ahora tengo que esperar ver. Subo un video con la configuración terminada, y de esa forma, se puede entender la idea. Sorry for those who don't speak spanish, but I've made the video in spanish. Anyways you can see and understand the configuration. Estoy orgulloso de lo que pude armar usando maderas de palets y otras que también encontré en la calle. La mayoría de los artefactos los tenía de otros indoors que he tenido. Ya prontl habrá actualizaciones sobre el avance. Pero seguramente para cuando estén enraizados los esquejes, esté en la 6ta semana de crecimiento y llegaré a las 7 sumando lo que haga crecer las plantas arriba. Ya anticipo que el próximo cultivo será con la Black Jack de Sweet Seeds, aunque me queda sólo una, y espero poderla germinar con éxito. Sino habrá que salir a comprar otra variedad y en Argentina no hay variedad. No quisera volver a caer en BSF. Saludos!

El día 27 de floración se vuelve a podar brotes bajos y se colocan tutores de varas 👍🍀

Great week for these plants. They are super healthy and moving along right through the early weeks of flower. 🌱 I've only been giving them water as I use organic compost as a meduim and they are very happy. 😎 The plant on the right is already very pungent.😵

11/5 -- They now have 2 weeks of 12/12 under their belts and it's truly been a tale of 3 plants for the past week and a half. GZ2- This one has the opportunity to meet its full potential. It has stretched to give me this beautiful canopy and very few signs of over feed or stress in it. Hopefully she stays this way. Moby- look like it may have been developing some deficiencies. I fed it a few days ago and it seemed to respond well. Some leaves have gotten yellow but the plant is do thick and dense I'm not worried about a few falling off. All in all, it's been steady eddy for Moby Dick that I now believe is also a Barney's Farm Freebie(the seed is now listed where I buy mine from) I'm not going to change it but if you're keeping track, this is most likely a tent full of Barney's Farm. Gz1- and now the music gets a little more serious. I really started recognizing problems with her right at flip. She has lost a lot of fan leaves due to yellowing,, dark stems and I can tell her branching has suffered because of it. Growth at the bottom looks weak and even wrinkled in some spots. She has burn spots and signs of deficiency galore. But also VERY dark fan leaves. I've just come to the conclusion that flushing was probably my best move. She can still have a week of solid growing. If I can get it corrected now, this plant will still be respectable but the trend is disturbing and alarming to someone who knows how fast they can decline. So in conclusion, things are getting a little hairy. Flowering always brings on a new set of challenges and I'm still learning every single time. Wish me luck this week, I'll need it. 11/6 Updated pic on old friend banana daddy that they shared the veg tent with.

This is mid-week four. These pictures are up-to-date taken today. I have LED light so and little other lighting on, so excuse the picture quality. I am no longer using Air, which is an iron supplement. I only used air 2 twice in Veg. Very powerful and boosts growth rate and health.

Some problems with Glookies If anyone could looked

Frisian Dew and Shaman are doing splendidly in the larger pots, a success story so far. FD and Shaman in the garden soil are a little behind, but are continuing to develop. Slugs and snails remain a problem, especially after these rainy weeks. Durban Poison from regular seed; a failure so far, perhaps they need the warmer climate in the polytunnel that is being set up. So far I have seen some male Durban Poisons, but which ones are definitely female? It remains exciting. Breeding is different from growing. Frisian Dew in a pot 73 cm, 72 l pot Shaman in a pot 65 cm, 50 l pot Frisian Dew in garden soil 52 cm Shaman in garden soil 50 cm Durban Poison in a pot 40 cm, 72 l pot

Flowering is really stunned in this very cold weather, still a fun thought seeing my plant still alive while all the tree already have lost their leaves. Today i chopped the remaining branches on my right maincola, the left will stay 1 to 3 more weeks, im gonna push that one with all the risk of every risk🤗 i wett trimmed the branches again and hanged them, after i took away the first drying batch from 10 days ago. I weighted that what was still hanging at 49 grams dry weight, adding up to a total of 64 grams so far... Im guessing the total amount of dry weight on this plant will be around 300 grams unfortunately... If this would have flowered lets say 1,5 month earlier( like it was fking expecter to do!!!) It would have made a kilo for sure
