answered grow question 6y ago
Defoliation is a controversial topic at best indoors; outdoors it makes no sense, you will screw the flowering.

What do you think, how long should I wait with harvesting?
I'm not sure when to harvest, because it's my first one. The trichomes are milky, the leaves are frosty. Strain is a GG#4 Auto. Don't want to miss the perfect moment.

No smell before harvesting the plants
Some plants will be harvested tomorrow. I remarked that the smell is not as strong as a few weeks ago. I smelled them at the beginning of the run, so heat was not at the maximal point.What could it be: heat? fertilization (plants ready to harvest are not yellow but nice green)?

Thricomes checking
So, a week ago the thricomes were looking almost ready, pretty much 90% cloudy and 10% clear. Now I checked it and it looks less mature, the thrics are looking 75% cloudy, 20% clear and 5% amber. Also, it looks like it is developing new growth after a week of no apparent growth.

Cloning AK420 Outdoor
So.... never cloned a plant (first three plants in soil, germinated from seed) and would like to try and clone this baby. Are there good video guides to cloning outdoor plants in vegetative state? Ordered Ed Rosenthal's mammoth book, but it'll likely arrive after flowering...

if possible, Judging by photos, roughly estimating, can anyone tell when WW1 will be ready for harvest? (Recent photos are marked WW1 week 9 end). Lower buds are very loose but have some brown hairs. Tichomes look clear / cloudy to me through 40x loupe. Cheers!
