Hi, searching about the extraction of papain, I found that you can scratch the skin of a green papaya with a knife (Not taking out the green papaya) to extract the papain, the process is repeated every 2 weeks and Mature fruits are discarted (may be used for some fpj or compost) , this will greatly decrease the production of papaya in this plant.
For papain dilution mix it with water and use a filter, I haven’t tried it , maybe I’ll try it this week and let’s see what happens!
that’s were I found it
Peace ✌️
