Hey everyone, this is one of my Autoflowering White widows, she is roughly 7 weeks and I believe I have between 3 or 4 more weeks before I should harvest. What do you guys think?

3 - 4 weeks sounds about right to me. though i've never grown auto before...

Hey dude. 4 weeks at least. Once there's about 80% red pistils, I start to check the trichs. When I have 25-30% amber, 70-75% cloudy and few clear, I harvest. Sometimes the leaves all yellow out, sometimes they don't. Usually around 90-95% of pistils are red. Some people take them longer.

Like said before, pistils are an obvious and easy sign to tell if your getting close to harvest.
Your pistils are basically all white still. When the plant is done, it will look swollen, the pistils will turn orange/red/brown, and will look like they are receding back into the calyxes.
The best way to tell if a plant is ready for you is to just get a scope and check the trichs, and harvest on your preference.
To answer on when to harvest, I would say 5-6 weeks. It really depends on when it start showing it's first pre-flowers.
