Seeds will be ready before the buds. To know when a seed has matured it will start to pull away from the husk and split. Will be able to see a dark seed inside. Pick the seed from the bud and peel the husk open it and let dry over night. If seed turns black /brown it's done. If stays white/green still needs time. As for buds to be ready; wait till see 80-90% of the hairs turn orange/red and then look at the buds trichomes and should see them white milky and have mushroom shaped tops.

unless this is your only ever grow ( as in, no more planned in the future) chill out bro. I can tell you much different than what Is already, well documented online on here and other sites as to when to harvest. Good luck

1st Method to Identify Harvest Time: Pistil Method Harvest when 70-90% of hairs have darkened for highest levels of THC. Harvest when 90-100% of hairs have darkened for a more calming, anti-anxiety effect as some THC turns to the more relaxing CBN. 2nd Method to Identify Harvest Time: Trichome Method For the “strongest” marijuana buds with the most psychoactive effects, and the highest levels of THC, harvest when almost all trichomes are cloudy/milky

Get a 60x lighted jeweler's loop to inspect trichomes on the buds not the sugar leafs. Seeded buds stop growing when they become pollinated. Harvest when the trichomes are to your liking. I prefer 20-30% amber. Hopefully this helps.🤟😜
