looking awsome dude, keep up the good work.
Thanks man, I'm trying
super pics! you got to promise me for your second/third grow you will top... thats all i want to do is snip snip. HAHA.. but i wouldn't do it now of course..
did you notice any kind of growing while they were in complete darkness?
I made up my mind before hand with this grow that I was gonna do it completely without pruning. Believe me...this is very hard to do....I want to cut stuff... I MAY prune a fan leave or two...we'll see. I really wanted to try a sea of green. Pruning the bottom branches may be a good idea, still, I haven't decided. I didn't want to experiment much with this first 'real' grow. I want to make sure I have something good to smoke at the end. Next time, I'll get creative.
It's really hard to tell when they grow, honestly. They grow so fast I have no idea and I don't spend but about an hour a week total with them normally.
hell yea mary, i'm happy for you. what a good looking grow. i'm getting bud sites all over mine. i'm getting pumped.
Thanks, I'm happy for you too! These papaya's really rock, no joke. They are all starting to smell nice too
UPDATE... I'm beginning to see more preflowers. I'm pretty certain that papaya 3 is a male at this point. I'll let it go a few more days to make sure. If so, I will remove him and put him in another building to collect pollen from (thanks Pimp). I will probably cross the aurora and papaya. I'll probably even take the papaya pollen to another female papaya bud. I'd like to get a bunch of seeds (containable) to store. It be neat to have my own strain of seeds too! I don't know how stable they'd be....
The good news you ask? I'm beginning to think I have 5 females right now (which would just rock!!!!!). I 'think' I see female preflowers on papaya 1, 2, 4 and aurora 2, 3. Papaya 5 (the runt but now very sexy) and aurora 1 aren't showing preflowers yet.
I am really liking how aurora 2 looks...'her' and papaya 2 are my favorite right now. They are all so pretty!
