Looks good, best to check the trichomes. You want as much cloudy as possible, little to no clear and amber.

Trichomes are the actual crystals that you see on the buds. you will need a 40x loop or greater to be able to tell what color they are.

I grow AK-47 and Head Band Kush. If you did a good job and it looks like you did, than expect some of the best weed you've ever smoked. NICE.

Be sure to check the color of your trics, they are the only real way to tell when it's done. My AK's average about 9 to 10 weeks after 12/12 switch, some take longer. Ripening times will vary depending on environment.

I don't know. Those suckers are pretty hard to see. I don't think you'll be able to focus the scope on them.
