Papaya/Mango grows short because of its parents. It mainly comes from the afgani #1 that is like one of the shortest growing indicas around.

Not sure yet, kinda hard to tell, but I am gonna guess somewhere in the realm of a an ounce dry weight.

That top of BD that I cut today weighs 26 grams wet. I am thinking it will shrink down to around 10 grams or so once its all dry and cured.

Update day 64

Business as usual. I gave her a super feeding yesterday. raised the ppm right up to 1400 she seems to be responding very well to the boost in nutes. Lots of trichome production happening all over the place now.













Im thinking another two weeks and she should be good to go, maybe three.

Do you have any more trips before you chop chop? I would really feel your pain if you have to leave her again before the big day lol

As of right now no I dont. I am off till the end of the month, and even then its all local shows to new england. I dont have any big trips planned till new years when I head back to Colorado for a couple of dates.

its hard to say for sure in the pics... but let me know if you get any purple showing up, I've heard they have been known to throw purple sometimes. I didnt get any with mine but It was also my first grow ever when I did this strain and I think I picked them just a little early maybe...I cant remember exactly I think I flowered for a few days over 7 weeks...

Ive been flowering since like day 16 or 20. i cant remember somewhere in that area though. I think she is moving slower than she could be. For a while I was having heat issues of over 85 degrees. I also think that the fimming method also slows down growth a little bit as well. I scoped her yesterday and it looks like most of the trics are clear. I am going to go for a nice mix of cloudy and amber when I cut her.

Looking good and im still here let me ask you a question when you say youve been flowering since day 16 or 20 is that from sprout? first set of leaves? as for the heat issues in my closet the temps are always at or around 85-86 i havent noticed any issues yet i hope not to.and from what i here fimming does add about a week or two to flowering..but be patient your well on your way and you have a bus load of us with you..lol ppp

The day count has been since sprout. It took like 12 days for it to even sprout out of the soil. I totally agree that fimming does add time to the growth cycle. When all is said and done I should be smoking this sometime around the holidays this December.

I also think that having temps at and above 82 makes most strains have a slower growth cycle. Which isnt really then end of the world but it is what it is.

I just cut four more clones off of the original clone I took a few weeks back. Im hoping I get 100% success with these four ladies. I am going to flower them the moment their legs get to be a few inches long.
