The plants are doing great so far and seem to be enjoying everything. The smaller CBD plant has caught up and the colorado cookies continues to be the largest so far.

Week nine all of the girls are doing very well continuing to have a very fast growth no problems so far I had leap leafhoppers that were giving me some trouble early on, but they seem to be all gone now so that is great. The girls should have about 4 to 5 more weeks of veg so expecting another foot or two of growth before they hit that bud They’re all larger than the plants I grew in 2023 and the smallest plant was 4 pounds so still expectations are high excited to finish out this season

~ 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: 9/12- Week 5 of flower is upon the FastBuds Papaya Sherbet photoperiod and she's looking like a champ! 9/14- My daily routine of watering, removing dead foliage and checking over the flowers continues. 9/16- The flowers on the Papaya Sherbet are all stacking nicely and are really starting to get super frosty! 9/18- Storms came thru overnight and in the morning I found that the Papaya Sherbet had sustained some damage. Right where the divide was from being topped she split. I quickly mended the split with duct tape and crossed my fingers for luck. I also place a couple more support poles to help support her. With another week of flower behind her, the Papaya Sherbet is looking to be in great shape for the upcoming weeks where she'll be putting on weight! Thank you for checking out my diary, your positive comments and support make it all worthwhile! 💚Growers Love!💚😎🙏

Solid week of growth and development. Temperature, humidity were solid and dialed all week. Both plants were defoliated and trained towards the beginning of the week. They bounced back quickly and started to pack on weight which led me to look into trellis. I don’t like that you can’t move the plants once the trellis is set and that it’s stupid pieces of plastic. We’ll see how many times I can re-use the trellis before it’s trashed 🙄. That said, I can already see the benefits. It really helped me even out the canopy and lower a few stubborn colas as well as open the lower levels to more light. Nice. I’ll be investing in some biodegradable trellis in the future if I like the results. I started using Fish Shit! between feedings to condition the soil. So far, so good. As for the clones, I used hardware store rooting hormone instead of a high quality gel or powder rooting hormone. You get what you pay for . . . I also think I’ve kept my growing medium too moist. I’ve had one clone root and transferred. I’ve been trying to dry the medium out a touch. Hopefully I get at least two more rooted within the next few days. This upcoming week I’ll continue the nutrient regiment and begin the pk boost for weeks 4, 5, and 6.

***** Week 5 December 20 to 26, 2020 - Days 29 to 35 from germination ***** Going into the first full week of flower/transition. She was definitely going through the start of transition last week but I left it as a veg week and will call this the first flower week. She is not 100% and will not be but she has all of the signs of being a nice girl. She grew hard to start and she can take the nutrients levels, leaf colour is very good and she has grown evenly, nothing odd with growth. You just can't make up veg time with autos as they don't stop😞 For the first four weeks I end up staying so focused on making sure the autos are happy everyday and for the full day if at all possible..........as opposed to the first four weeks of a photo and I am a lot more relaxed and feel there is time to correct anything......its all good😂😂 This girl has obviously not been happy about everything in life over the first four weeks. She was put on a riser this week to help get her closer to the light. I still don't know exactly what I have done but suspect it was a combination of things in veg to slow her down. I feel she likely wants a quite dry media so the roots can breath more........I was not "soaking" the coco with the volumes of moisture but it was wet. Possibly could have cut watering volumes in half to see. Been battling pH drift though so I have it in my thick skull to give a good runoff amount........which can lead to a "soaked" media and that my have been part of it??? I also took four large fan leaves up higher on her, early on right after the first LST and think that pissed her off as well........I knew when I did it and thought I would "roll the dice" and take them but maybe should have left them.......cant go back but at least aware of it😀 Pulled her out this week and looked closer at her to see the bottom better. Her branches are soft so silica is increasing now that we are in flower. Colour was good below and not spotting or deformities. When tying down the branches, she pulled her self right up around the ties again easily enough by the next day. At this point I just want to get all the extra leaves out of there and let the air flow so I removed a number of fan leaves on her lower half, not too crazy but enough that she felt it I am sure.......she is already stunted so screw it and help give her a chance to get more light and grow taller was my thought😁👊 Little more detail..... Dec 20/20, Day 29 - Dry out day after heavier feed yesterday. Dec 21/20, Day 30 - need to add some moisture - 1.5L watering with Magnificat @ 2ml = 200ppm and 5.7pH - more of a watering today with some CalMag added because RO water being used. Dec 22/20, Day 31 - dry out day today. - going to let her go and feed in the morning tomorrow. Dec 23/20, Day 32 - Feeding day today. Continuing with first weeks flower feed of 2ml/L. - 2L feed with Micro, Bloom, Magnifical, AstroFlower, VeloKelp, Natures Candy @ 2ml = 800ppm and 5.8pH. Dec 24/20, Day 33 - dry out day again. Still fair bit of weight in the pot compared to the other autos. - pull out tomorrow and clean up lower growth and check runoff numbers. Dec 25/20, Day 34 - 2L full feed again with the same 2ml/L feed as earlier in the week for all the autos. Added AN Rhinoskin as well for silica. - 1150ppm and 5.9pH going in.........pots were really dry and perfect pretty well. - Runoff was 1075ppm and 6.0pH.........I can live with that at week 2 flower😁😁 Dec 26/20, Day 35 - 1L full feed again. Had mixed up 12L yesterday. - Added 2ml/L of Microbial Mass and Piranha = 1200ppm and 5.9pH. - She needed her microbe allotment as we are at the start of flower. - Bacteria added to help keep some of the nutrients in the media as she finishes. - next watering is more of plain water and add Terpinator. Nice girl Sweet Seeds.......I have messed her up but learning from her.......we will get one to smile about😬😬

Day 79 - Another week passes, not much to post, normal feeding, 1000 ppm 6.2 PH, normal lights, the girls are fattening up nicely...... 😎 Day 84 - some pics/vids.... pics of a Test Bud (ready for curing)......doing some experimentation..... read up about drying and curing, but i don't have a set method, so test abit..... never grown bud before..... 👍 my tent is really small, i think 50x120x160 or something... and it's tight in there, i have no other source of herb, so i'm going to start getting into the smaller one, and focus the light on the larger one..... i've been trimming and drying all during the grow.... there's really only enough room for the big one, and it's really squishy in the tent........ 😎

Day 29 Over the past week, the plant has continued to change noticeably. The new growth at the top has stretched a bit, giving the plant a slightly taller and more open appearance compared to Day 29. The upper leaves are still bright green, and the fresh growth looks delicate and slightly lighter in color. The structure is becoming bushier, with many small shoots forming around the center. Some of the lower leaves show more pronounced discoloration than before, with patches of yellowing and slight browning around the edges. This contrast between older and newer foliage makes the plant look like it's shifting energy upward as it continues its development.

Lovely body high on this one! Amazing for pain relief! Nice head too, taste and smell 10/10. Little yield but that was probably because of my mess ups throughout the grow. Overall a great strain Only yielded 9gs, was a small plant but no doubt I stressed it along the way so I think it’s more down to my mistakes than the genetics Tastes of grapey diesel, 10/10 🍇 Smells of straight grapes, 10/10 🍇 Appearance, very frosty and great looking bud(could be trimmed better but that’s on me)! 9/10
