I agree with alienwidow. You covered everything except how you dried and cured, which is the deciding factor of how the bud will smell and taste.
What is your method?
That looks fine. A good reference is to hold your hand at the height of the tallest cola. Just use the back of your hand as reference for heat. And watch them for heat stress.

Sorry. I just meant that the 400w setup would greatly improve your yield. The CFL is the white one with tubes. I'm enjoying my led. I underestimated it though. Not sure if you can tell but I burnt my ladies due to having it too close. Mars hydro 600. Actual is around 272w.
Well no one on here will argue that your yield would suffer if you switched to a 400w setup. That being said, you're probably like me and don't want to go that route due to heat and consumption. Stick with your T5, just add some CFL bulbs to help penetrate the canopy and give some side lighting...
I'm running an auto ak (day 76 now) and mine started to turn a few pistils around 8 wks as well. They held there until the past 4 days or so and the rest followed. I think you've got plenty of bud sites and they have enough breathing room between them. Could you spare to throw a few cfls in for...
Though too late for this run, ditch the metal chicken wire that you're using. That stuff cuts into the plants and I hear it's a bitch to work with when time to chop. Shoot for the nylon netting next go-round. I'm interested to see what weight you pull off of this awesome sounding strain! Good luck!
Have you checked your tap PH? I recently discovered my tap water came in at 8.9! So basically I was chasing ghost decencies because my tap water was causing a lockout...
