Thanks Chronic, the pk canopy is lower than last time from not letting them stretch as early, so there aren't as many large colas and more of them. The hairs were turning brown at this point last time, and I think the buds are a little fatter than they were at this point last time.
Here is a bud comparison
Last Run
This Run
Works great. No smell at all. That 6" fan actaully causes suction in the room. I have two doors, the one one hinges and then I sealed it with panda film and a zipper. The plastic one is always bowed in from the suction. So all there is no air escaping anywhere else than throug the carbon filter. Thererefore, no smell.
The smell in the room though is marvelous. The pk has the normal sweet candy smell and the bagseeds are a little stronger smelling with a lemon/pinapple/green apple odor.

It is a trip. There aonly a few minor things different this time. I vegged these girls longer (50+ days)under t-5's and the last round was 30 days under mh. I am using Silicate this round. I used magic green foliar spray last time and not this round. I treated heavier in this round for insects in the medium which may have been a bigger issue in the last run. I added the CO2 bucket this round too.
Everything else is the same from the room temp/humididty to the nutrient regime. It is a trip though. I remember last run at about 6 1/2 weeks the trichs were already milky too. Maybe something made them mature faster last round or something.
Oh one more thing that may be the difference... The light was about 6 to 8" closer last time. However the lower bud hairs browned up the same time as the top ones last run.

I am using just the 6" vortex fanthat pulls air through my reflectos, it is 448 CFM and three 6 " passive intakes. I left one end open so it intakes the air and the other end goes out of the room.
It isn't as loud as the cheaper ones. I is under the house and souds like a slight hum. I have rubber sounds dampening brackets on it.

You know now that I think about it, My timer last night was drifting about 7 mins a day. I would tune it backlonce a week which may have cause a slight schedule interruption.
I think the colas( not really colas since there are multiple tops) will be fatter this time too, just much shorter and more of them..

damn man, nice grow. just sat here and read the entire thing start to finish. inspirational quality. just wondered, in regards to aphids, what are your thoughts on just buying one of those ladybug things and setting a thousand predators loose in your grow room. I know it seems strange, but I read this high as hell and cant stop thinking about it.

I hear ya man. Trust me if I had aphids on my canopy anywhere, I would load the room with lady bugs. Fortunately I have taken care of the root aphids it would seem anyway. The fungas gnats are the pain in my ass now. They lay eggs in the medium, which turn into larvae, which eat fresh roots. I don't have any flyers right now and since I added the sucra sheild, I haven't seen any larvae. I have millions of preditor nematodes roming my medium too. I a hoping I can get by with another couple doses of sucrasheild for the next few weeks to get through this grow. I will bleach the trays and fans and spray the shit out of the room before I move the babies in. I have been treating the babies figoriously with azamax and sucrashield. I also have been using silicate which stregnthens the roots as well as root excel. I have to be honest man, bugs are such apain in the ass and take up so much time. I have tried so many diifferent treatments, I am hoping to find the magic treatment. I think the most important thing is to always be preventative.
Thanks for taking the time to read the entire thread. I try to post lost of pics so you don't fall asleep. lol Thanks for the compliment.

I was looking through the comparison shots of last round and found this one about the same time last round. It is before my wife and I were heading to a Raider game. Not a good shot of the plants and I think my wife forgot something...hmmm oh yeah her pants. lol We hadn't done our pre-game ritual yet
