I am a fan of the pk as well. I am bumbed that I won't be running it this next round. I am having some re-vegging issues and i can't wait for it any longer. It is a fun strain to grow and hard to compare to.
Yea, the pk was so sticky compared to the mango and the bd. It was fun trimming when I would try and put a bud down it would stick to my goves, actually every thing stuck to the gloves after trimming a few of the pk.

Hell yea, those look great. Looks like you have some nice fat buds form there. You will actually start seeing trichome development over the next week. The will continue to stretch into week5 , but the biggest stretch is done. You are doing great thow, they look very nice.

Actually it is a 8 week flower if it is the same strain I have. Mine are done at 50-56 days depending on when you want to harvest. I haven't found in increase running them later than 56 days, the trichs actually start to regress after that IMO. You will know if it is the sr71 strain by week 4 or 5 when the buds really start developing. The small sugar leaves will grow downward covering the sides of the buds until around 6-7 weeks when the buds swell and push them outward.

LOL, yes those do look different than the strain I have. The buds seem more stretched out than mine get that early. The hairs seem longer too.just snapped some pics for yah.... mine are just at 3 wks right now.... maybe they are the same... but just different, as you and I are

The first mango I trimmed is about ready for jars, I may take a bud shot later so you can see what it looks like finished. I have a few of the re-vegging clones that have some healthy new growth and I prunned the hell out of the rest of them. I figure the one's that haven't revegged will either re-act well to the prunning or they will get thrown out. I am getting tired of waiting and they are taking up too much space. So only the strongest will be kept. I will make the final cut next week.
Now that my flower room is empty( fullof pots still) I need to get on the ball setting up the new flower room. I have one 4x4 table built that will hold the tray and the res. I put wheels on the bottom so I can move them around. The plan is to have the res and tray on the tables so I can move them. My issue now is air flow. I am planning on running my 6" vortec to exhaust the lights and another that will be set on a thermostate. I am installing a tub sink so I have water in the room. I am also running a hose into the room. I want to set-up some type of pump to drain the res when I am changing them. Originally I was going to install a drain for the reserviors, but they won't sit high enough to drain to empty. Anyway, don't mean to ramble, just thinking out loud lol.

Thanks for the idea, I have been trying to figure out what kind of pump to get. I was thinking I may need a sump pump. I might just get a big submersable pump and run the hose to the sink like you say. I appreciate the advice. +rep
Thanks!

I think that mike is on target with that idea. Ive got a 400 gph and I wait too long for that pos to finish.
Thats funny you just built a stand on wheels for your tray and res. Im doin the same when this round finishes. Can you post up pics so I can see how you put it together. Ive got mine planned but knowing yours is probably set up better than mine is planned out in my head.

Yea, I will post pics when I am done. I used 2x2s instead of 2x4's, but it seems sturdy enough. It is two feet high plus the wheels. I jumped on it and rolled around the garage and it held my 210 pound ass up just fine so it should be fine with the 50 gal easy drain res.
