I am starting to think about harvest in the upcoming weeks.I made some research and my seed are Indica dominant so to get more indica effect I should harvest when trichomes become more amber up to 50% or so. I am thinking more like 25-30% amber and the rest milky.Reccomendations?

Depends on the type of high you want. Regardless of terpenes and genetics if you harvest with milky thrichomes its the peak of the effects you get sedative and active high. If you wanted fully active high, harvest with clear+milky cristals. If you want it basically fully sedative, just hold on for a couple weeks untill its fully amber crystals and you got it. Its up to you. I like to harvest them at a point where some might say its a premature harvest, but i know what i'm aiming for, it just blast my mind everytime, since i need to be active and can't even risk couchlock i harvest with clear crystals. I get less yield but i get the high i want, and its better to get 70% of what you like than 100% of what you don't really want. Stay well, and good growing growmie

Harvest when 10-20% of your trichomes turn amber. Luckily for you, it looks like your trichomes are maturing at about the same rate. This will be great for your end result. You'll need to keep your eyes peeled, however, as they could rapidly turn amber. Good luck and good work!

Hi, your plan seems good, about 25/30% amber, but remember the main tops get ready first. Stay high

you have about a week and a half, start doing a water flush and in a week or 2 do the harvest, the breeder says this is a 75 day strain, so use the extra time to flush her with just plain water. the extra time will possibly fatten up the buds, as well as the 75 day mark will get those buds prime mature time. looks good.
