You gotta look at the trichs, you can't just go off how your buds look. That's the true way to tell ripeness. Unless it's a strain that the pistils doesn't darken/shrivel much, it appears as if you still have a ways to go. Possibly as long as a month.

From look still easy 3 weeks more to go. Some pistils are brown, either environment damage, wind or wrong ph in. It wont influence harvest ( unless polination ) but good sign for seeing that something is wrong.

SirBudAlotts If it's the autoflower version it's seed to harvest in 11 weeks. The photo version takes 8-9 weeks to flower. Best of luck the rest of the way!

I'd say you still have quite a few weeks remaining. Your pistils are still quite white and haven't started to shrivel. Use a magnification glass to check your trichomes but like I said at the beginning you got weeks left. On average I'd say autoflowers take between 10 and 14 weeks from seed.

this looks like she just started flowering a few weeks ago, why would you harvest it now already? please do yourself a favor and wait more and then check the trichomes if she is ready or not. by the look of the buds you can tell she is clearly weeks away from being ready.

You have to look at the trichomes, those little things on the plant that look like "mushrooms" When they are all milky (cloudy) and some are amber, it's the perfect time to harvest To look at the trichomes, you need a microscope of at least 60x (magnification) You can buy it at your grow shop, on Amazon, or on Aliexpress It will be very useful in the future if you keep growing
