High hazemaze, If you want to harvest precisely and want to make sure that you harvest her at her full potency you need to check the colour of the trichomes. You can do this with a x60 pocket microscope and they cost like . The trichomes start clear as glass. At this colour they are not ready yet. After that they turn milky white like a cloud, at this point they are at full potency. And after that they start to lose their strengts and become amber brownish. WHEN ALMOST ALL THE TRICHOMES ARE CLOUDY AND AROUND 10% IS AMBER YOUR PLANT IS AT FULL POTENCY!!! But when I look at your plant she will be ready in around 2 weeks! Happy Growing! πŸ˜‹

Take a magnifying glass or your phone and super-zoom in on your trichome heads. If all of them are at least cloudy and you see very few to no clear heads, it's finished. I hope this helps. Enjoy your harvest!

Your plant is Auto or Fem ? If Auto, your bud stay at week 3 of bloom stage. And week 6 of Bloom stage if your plant is Fem.

Yup, GG right. You do need a loop to see how the trichomes look. But my zooming in on what you shown us, they look done.. Depending on what nutrients you used. If you went the organic route then no need to flush. But if you went the synthetic nutrients I'd highly suggest you soft flush for the last week and let her finish off. Don't hard flush as that's too much stress at end of life. You just want to lower that salt content in your substrate and wash out any heavy minerals. So, just water for the next week as GG said. Now, a lot of beginners trim the whole plant then dry, please don't do this. I did it in my 1st grow. Dry your plant whole, it'll draw out the drying process but will make it dry evenly, and as it progresses in its dry you can start to remove fan leafs and that. Feel free to DM me regarding harvesting and we can go through a few dif styles. You'd be surprised at how much the drying process makes a massive impact on the quality of your bud. There is many many ways to harvest, but the general consensus is to hang your plant whole to allow sugars and so on to be drawn back into your bud, there's a lot more to it than that. Good luck

You'd need to get a closer look at the trichs but they look to me like you've got another week - but you might even consider chopping them now! Good luck!
