Its not that strong but the high is great - very fun. Doesn't knock you down.

Times are like any other usual indica dominant - around 8-9 weeks of flowering.

It doesn't strech much at any stage.

You really should cure it for over 3 weeks. Unless you do so it smells and taste like cheep weed.

Its a really strong plant - you can feed it any crap and it will survive it. You could pump nutrients like crazy and it will react well. (of course you need to introdue the plant to the ferts - up the dose a bit every week)




As for your closet - I wouldn't use thoes warm white (red) CFLs. They just generate heat while the spectrume doesn't help that much.
At this stage a clone \ seedling can do well with one 45w CFL of daylight (6500K).



Good luck with everything else
Thanks for the info bro. With all the lights running I am maintaining a nice steady temp of 78-80 during the day and around 72-74 during the night.

Mixing of spectrums does help alot more than you think when using Cfls.

If this strain is as hearty as you say it is, IM sure it can handle the low temp of 80f

Yes I did, i got them from nirvana.

Very pleased with them, I had issues with the seeds. four have turned out to be duds. I contacted nirvana, stayed really cool and was nice the whole time to them. They sent me a whole new pack out because they didnt grow.

I grew under CFL too. Used 6500k for veg, 6500K+2700K for advanced veg and starting of flowering and 2x2700K for flowering and everything went pretty fine.
Never had any chance to experiment as I grow under HP grow lights but on the other hand never had problems.


450W of CFLs over that tiny plants seems to me like a waste of energy.

I hear ya bro, I am not using all 450 right now. The light system I built can hold up to 450 watts. Right now I only have a couple of 6500ks and 1 2700k on it right now. I will turn on more lights as they are needed.

hmm thats odd. the only problems I have heard of about the papyaya/mango strain is the germ process sucks.

everything else I have heard is that it is a great strain, grows well. very hearty and likes to stay small. I also heard that the end product is so fine ass smoke.

i dont know what your talking about to be honest.
