I would wait a week if you have that option. It can only get better unless the bugs or rippers find it.

These buds look ready but I have the option of harvesting them tommarow or in a week from today. Suggestions?
I have a similar sativa. Just let her go until the frost hits. You'll be thankful you did. I usually keep the plant in the ground and harvest as I trim. I don't have to worry about bud rot though. Good luck
 
Harvesting the tops early is a good way to reduce damage from mold/rot. Sometimes this includes the top buds of the lower branches. Whenever you expect cool temperatures and rain for a few days you can harvest those denser areas before it hits. The less developed buds at the lower section will be more resistant to infection because they are still small and airy. Then hopefully after the damp weather it will warm up with sunshine to fill in those lesser debeloped areas. This will increase your total yield.

Funny you should say that because today has been on and off drizzle into tomorrow morning and night temps are about mid 40s with. I think the staged harvest concept is great since it is the best of both options.
