The Agnostic Church 01

Target Vapor Pressure Deficit (VPD): 1.0kPa This girl is a bit of a slow grower and still has little mutations here and there. Unless the terps and flavor are phenomenal I probably won’t grow this strain again. According to the breeders one of its main purposes is for outdoor growers in latitudes that are closer to the poles and/or in more humid areas because of its fungal resistance, but this isn’t too much of a factor that I need to deal with in my tent. So it has its purposes, but doesn’t really fit my own purposes. My main reason for growing it was that it was supposed to be a social smoke, but we’ll see if that factor outweighs the slow growth and mutations during the grow. Sorry about the lighting, I have to turn off my LEDs and use a shop drop light because I’m not really sure what type of lighting to use to take better pictures (see my Grow Question). The Autopots are doing their job. It is nice being able to take time off of watering to focus on other things. I fimmed early on in the week. The recovery is going well, and there is more bushy-ness now. Unfortunately, unless I figure out ways to make my schedule at the end of this summer more accomodating for this round of growing, this might be my last week of veg. I might be ok though if we get one more really good week of recovery after this fim. RECAP OF THE GROW SO FAR: Target VPD for the week 1-2 seedling cycle was 0.7kPa. Target VPD for the week 3+ veg cycle is 1.0kPa. I am using KIS Organics Water Only Soil with Biochar. This is a living organic compost soil that theoretically should be enough nutrients for the plant through the whole grow. The Nutrient Pack will be used on weeks 4 (was going to be weeks 4 & 6, but don’t need to now with the shorter veg cycle), Recharge will only be used if growth slows down too much, and Mammoth P will be used one week before and during flowering (was going to be 2 weeks before, but couldn’t also because of the shorter veg cycle). The Autopot is a bottom watering unit that uses a float system to turn the water flow on and off, and I won’t need to manually water the plant, but you do need to top-water for the first 7-10 days until the roots get low enough to reach the Autopot tub. Also the supplements mentioned above need to be top-watered on because you cannot run organic supplements through the Autopot lines. Every light cycle stage is/will be programmed with a sunrise and sunset mode where the light intensity starts low and increases, peaks, and then gradually dims before shut off. During week 1 and 2 I ran with a lower intensity and bluer color, and the actual watt average during the light cycle was only at 238W. For week 3+ I changed my light to autorun mode, which is a stronger intensity but still has more blue during the light cycle, and the average light wattage in this cycle is 451W. Autorun mode is the Kind LED K5 XL1000’s default factory setting for a standard sunrise to sunset veg cycle. I really like the Pulse One monitor. It really helps me to keep everything dialed in at all times. The graphing feature is a really great addition because I can now see how bad the environment of the tent would have been without some fine tuning.
