All 5 of the papaya seeds craked and have sproutes.
i placed them into rockwool one of them have the first set of leaves.
I have heard some bad reviews about the germination rate.
So this is a perfect example that the Nirvana Papaya seeds have a 100% germination rate in this case.

Its been a while since las post but i haven't been getting too much response but here we are Day 57, Flowering Day 1
The plants have gown a lot and they are covered in pre-flower pistils.
The 2 Nirvana Papaya Plants are very healthy at 2 weeks old. They are now on 12/12 as well. Waiting to Find the sex out.
The tall Cheese plant is slowly turning yellow just loosing the green out of the leaves i feed them once a week with my DNF nute solution
Any Ideas Would Be Great

Are they all in 12/12? If so it is normal for the lower leaves to turn yellow and die off. Recent info say to increase the N during at least the first 2-3 weeks of flower to keep as many healthy leaves as possible. Might want to try that.

If you were doing hydro I could advise you better. But what I think is happening is that the plant is borrowing the N from the bottom leaves to build the new growth that always comes from a switch to 12/12 but it is kind of soon for that to be happening. Perhaps a soil grower could advise your better.

Since they are going into flower and plant will naturally grow taller as it looks for the light while the lights are out. To do this it borrows from the lower leaves. Since you do ground and I do hydro that's about it. It is very natural for it to happen that way and in hydro you can add a bit more N to combat it. I'd check around with some soil growers for more detailed info.

i would say about a month, its hard to wait cause to you they look like they hardly grow anymore, but trust me wait and they will fill out better..... and you harvest when the trichs start to change amber, id let at least half if not more change before harvesting, grow looks good btw
