I think you can take cuttings from plants in veg up to a week but you better check first. I use a 4 bulb t5 in my veg and clone closet.

actually my first harvest is only 8 plants.

Looks great!! Especially for bottom nugs!

Have you tried getting a good look at the trichomes to see how many are clear/cloudy?

I like mine a tad early.. to get more of the cerebral effect.. so I think they look great!

However, I bet they could go longer if you were going strictly according to, say, 50% cloudy trichomes rule...

Seems like they can always go longer though, doesn't it ;)

They could use another week. If you need some meds for yourself then dry a few of the buds to smoke and let the rest finish.

Some of the best advice I've ever read came from the master grower Soma. His advice is to wait until you think the plants are ready to harvest. Then give them another week.

I use this advice now when I harvest. In fact that's one of the main reasons we harvest at 9 weeks instead of the usual 8.

I've also cut plants down but leave enough of the lower branches to keep the plant alive. That way the roots won't die and kill the other plants.

You could do this for your AK. Just pull the majority of your other plants and leave the AK in for another few days to finish.

I'll be doing this on my next harvest because I want to see how long it will actually take for the AK to totally finish.

Even if it takes 12 fucking weeks I'm going to wait it out this time!

I guess it is what it is right?
Another week isnt gonna hurt?
alot of the leaves are so yellow and dry and crunchy, and stiking straight up, they look so ready but then i want to harvest at the best time.

Those leaves are sacrificing their all for the bud bro. You're gonna have some wonderful smoke in short order man. Great work!
