When to harvest?

Beginner question: Would you say this is ready to harvest soon or should I wait some more? Leaves turning autumn colors, 3/4 of pistils turned orange. Trichomes look rather clear, but some on the head bud are amber already. RQS says 8-9 weeks. Starting week 9 soon.

If you zoom in on pictures 3, 4, and 5- you can see what appears to be black spots (absence of white/milky)in the centers of quite a few trichomes. That’s a result of what I’d call glassiness. Not sure of a better description, but anyhow, those would be the ones I would call clear (not milky). I’m not sure what you’re going for in terms of high, but for a generalization I’d say it’s a bit early yet. This combined with some pistils still being white/not receding, makes me say not yet. I would say you’re not far off though, so I’d keep checking every other day or so. If you chopped her now I’m sure you’d get some sorta high, but why not let her go to her potential, not to mention she’ll probably gain some more weight over the next week or so which is obviously a good thing

i think they are ready but if you feel the lower buds are not ripen yet you can chop the top buds and wait one more weeks for the lower buds to get light

I have always found that the breeder recommendation is usually off. It really depends on your preference on when to harvest. The consensus is that you harvest when roughly 20% are amber. So my suggestion is for sure one more week. Then keep checking and if it still isn’t ready, keep them going till they are. The flowering time is just a guide, it’s different with every plant and every grow environment to when and how fast they ripen up. Keep checking the trichomes. I hope this helps.
