I'm a big fan of "one more day" the plant and the soil will tell you when it's ready. No stress mate, when it looks dry to you. Feed it.

i hear you on the bro, its just more clones of the same plant treated the exact same way in the same flower room, same type of pots are still using all there water, the only diffrence is there only about 4 weeks since the 12/12 switch

Man depending on the strain, it might be done at 8 weeks...when they stop drinking water, when the calyxes are very swollen, when the pistils receed and turn reddish brown, when the leaves start turning colors and won't stop...these are all signs that it's done...good luck and don't let it go too long as it will ruin the harvest...
