A great question is, how long have they been flowering? Now if you've had a period of stress this throws the whole timeline off. For many indicas, or hybrids with indica-dominant traits, the period of flowering is shorter, 60 days-ish; whereas, the flowering time of sativas, or hybrids with sativa-dominant traits, is typically a little longer. The difference in the amount of flowering time that is typical between an indica and a sativa is due to its location on the globe where the two different types of cannabis are "native" to- all cannabis is originally native to an area in the mountains of the middle-east near Pakistan. Shorter summers demand that indicas are given enough time to reproduce, yet they must finish before the freeze comes. Sativas typically have longer summers and milder autumns, so they can spend more time flowering. Knowing this should at least dial you into the right week of harvest, at which point you should start determining what kind of buzz you like... As the last set of pistils turn colors, more white pistils left on the bud, say 1/3, then you are approaching max THCa production and the high, if dried/cured properly, should be more head-based or cerebral; and if you let most, say 2/3s, of the pistils turn colors before harvesting, then your high will be more of a body-buzz, or somatic, with a proper dry/cure. If you continue to leave your buds on the plant once most of the pistils have changed color, then your buds are losing their potency as THCa is broken down to less effective psychoactive cannabinoids:)

It's very hard to tell unless you can look at the trichomes. Try to take a few clearer photos they don't have to be so close because you'll want to zoom in to a clear photo and try and view the bud crystals, not the leaves as best as you can. I can tell you're close as the jefe have started to yellow and all your pistils have started to brown and curl that's normally the point I would start checking trichs and flushing. 🌱👍

Yeah she's definitely ready for harvest, those buds are nice and swole and those pistils are receding just how you want them to be, I would be flushing at this point if you haven't started already. Give her 7 days of flushing and chop her down!!! Hopefully, this was helpful and remember "Happy Growing and Free your mind one puff at a time".
