UPDATE TIME!!!!
Let me just say this. This grow has been one of the funnest, most interesting hobbies I have done. I have learned so much before and during my grow from this awesome community. I have researched pretty much everyday on SOMETHING during my grow. Thanks for all the help that you guys and this site has given me.
So moving on! So the chop was yesterday evening/night... I had a small chop party to celebrate haha! Grilled out cooked some good food and enjoyed some spirits and cannabis!
The chop went very well. She was in darkness for 48 hours. I went in the tent and started cutting! I trimmed the fan leaves off as i was hanging them up. Everything went very well! This process took me around 3 hours for everything. So as i was getting to the end of the chop i look down and the bottom of my feet were covered in fan leaves LOL... They all were sticking to my feet as I was chopping and hanging. I know she still had at least 50 fan leaves... I thought i had cut most of them off but especially in the back where I couldn't reach. I believe I was getting high from the smell. It was so strong and smelled soooo good. I enjoyed every minute of the 3 hour "work"...
Smoke REPORT!
Also, Last night after all was cut and hanging to dry i forgot about the main stalk with popcorn buds on the bottom! So i cut the small handful and set the out on cardboard to dry. I didnt have anything to smoke so i took about 5 of the small buds.... I put them in the microwave on a paper towel and put my microwave on "defrost" mode. I heated about 10 seconds and checked them. The paper towel was wet where the buds were! (taking the moisture out) So i moved them to another spot and heated for about 15 more seconds. To my surprise the small buds were dry and smokable! I put them in my ice bong and took the first hit..... WOW!!! Never imagined the aroma and flavor from a 30 second microwave dry. Im so excited for a month cure! So i passed the bong around. Each of us took 2 good hits... Since they were lower buds i was kinda expecting a head high like the sample i took from papaya around day 60. Around 5 mins later I looked around and WOWWW It hit me. I could fill it run from my head all the way to my feet. I was stoned off my ass. I have smoked a lot of cannabis in my life but I dont believe i have ever been so stoned.. especially off 2 hits from my bong. I look around and everyone is staring at the cards on the table (we were playing poker). For the next 3 hours it was hard to move. No one mentioned taking another hit or smoking any more for the rest of the night LOL.... I was satisfied and everyone else was as well. We enjoyed the rest of the night. It was awesome. I dont believe papaya is going to be a "go out in public" smoke lol.... So that was my experience last night. I wanted to post pics and report so bad last night but after smoking i just couldn't do it. I was to relaxed and medicated.
Im going to do a smoke report in a few weeks and keep updating on the process of papaya. I will also try and get a dry weight for everyone. Once they are dry i will take a lot more pics and cut them up and put in jars so you can get a better idea of that they look like. Hopefully you will be able to see the quantity and quality of this awesome strain! I am more than happy with this strain.
Give it up for them CFL's!!!!
