When to chop ???

Hi all

I've got 2 AK-48 growing and they have been flowering for just over 7 weeks and was wondering if any of you clever people on here could give me a rough idea how long I have left.

Plant 1




Plant 2




Thanks

got a couple years left ;p

Thanks thats very helpful advice

beautiful plant! thats what im growing! hope mine looks as good as yours! sry i dont know when to chop it down.. I just wanted to compliment your plant!

still got a couple of weeks imvho..

Thanks FourZeroTwo for the compliment I've put a lot of time and love into them, I don't know if your on your first grow or not but if someone was to ask me now what things I've most learnt as I near the end of my grow and what I'll take on to my future grows is.......1) Read, read and read more information on growing and 2) Don't overthink things !!!

Thanks Racerboy, I thought it might be weeks but I guess I've waited this long !!!

Go by color of trichromes, get yourself a jewelers loupe or handheld microscope.There's a lot of heated debate over what percentages of the 3 different colors(Clear, Milky, and Amber) but you definitely want to get them to show at least a little amber coloring to the swollen mushroom heads of trichs. Giggity. lol Good luck!

Get a microscope! Its the most accurate way to tell for sure when to chop and get maximum potency.
