Outdoor Grow Log (Papaya & Coletrain Fem) Southern U.S.

[talonkardel]

Well its that time of year again, i placed an order for Nirvana's Papaya from attitude seed bank a week ago, should be arriving within the week, so this is more of a preliminary setup

I've read alot of great reviews for the papaya strain as outdoor grows go, the attitude seedbank also is sending me a Feminized Cole train seed, dont have alot of information on the strain so if anyones got a thought lemme know!

Last year i cut it close with my bagseed, but in the end i got great results, started veg outdoors in early september and harvested late December. I'm going to be using the same setup i had last time, with a few soil modifications.

The nutrients to be used will be fox farms (Big Grow, Big Bloom, Tiger Bloom) As well as superthrive for transplants & sprouts.
As i had issues with pest control last time i purchased a bottle of neem oil, hopefully should do the trick .

I feel kinda shitty as my camera broke before harvest last year, wish i could have thrown a post up of it :stoned: i netted just under 8 oz. with 6 plants (all bagseed) so i feel very confident within 5 months i should have some beastie beauty's.

Mail day!

It only took 7 days from order to delivery for my seeds!
10X Nirvana Papaya 1X Reserva Privada Cole Train Feminized.

Huge thumbs up to attitude seed bank for hooking it up so quickly :thumbsup:

Sadly i wont be able to put up HQ photos this time around ill have to use my phone camera, which isnt THAT bad... My digital camera's memory stick went bad so i need a new one before i can take pics again.

I still need to go to my local shop for nutes & neem oil. By monday i should have pics of the layout, though it will probably look the same as before .

Okay so after getting materials together and setting up i have a happy note and a sad note..

About a week ago as i was setting up the pots and rapid rooters, i set down the 2 seed bags, one with the single cole train fem, the other with the 10 papaya seeds. I walked away for 30 seconds to grab scissors... come back and the fem seed was gone,spent a good minute looking for it, much to my dismay it dissapeared..

So! on the good note, 9 of the 10 papaya has already broken ground and got started.

the last one is poking its head through soon, for the moment i just wire caging surrounding the sprouts. I wont be setting up the tent again till they begin to flower.

Once i start to see their 3rd true set of leaves ill get some pictures in here. Not much to see right now

Anyways ill check back in a week from now, peace! :hippy:

keep it up man ill be watching :thumbsup::thumbsup::jointsmile:

hi talon,sorry to hear of your loss!keep an eye out for a "wild" plant!! P.S. just got myself a new greenhouse-i'll be cementing this 1 in place!!!

Alright so i know i don't have pics yet, but again there's not much to see yet.
The 10th papaya never sprouted a taproot and i'm assuming it was a *dud*, I had a couple seeds from my harvest last year that i had started as well.

So other than that everyone is looking good , all of the babies are on their second true sets of leaves and looking perky. As far as i'm concerned the hard part is over, now all i have to do is water daily and watch my babies grow up :jointsmile:

On to the next subject, my single fem seed that was lost, i believe i know exactly where it is, it was in a sealed dime baggie so its not like its going to be able to sprout or anything... but its underneath my wood deck and the only way i can figure to get to it would be to rip out the wood.... which id rather not have to.

I'm sure by the next time i post I'll have some pics of my garden to throw up! Until then, stay green everyone! :hippy:
