there are a lot of factors - some people harvest when there are lots of red hairs, but i think that is often too early - you certainly do not risk over ripening by letting them go a weekend..
my new way is to watch for the hairs to recede into the nugs and use a magnifier to see the trychomes turning color..
pictures would help...

best thing u can do, is look at the trichomes, but I think you can wait. you didnt post any pictures so it's really hard to tell, nor do we know what kinda strain you are growing or how long they ahve been in flowering stage. so your guess is better than ours.

Pictures dont matter. Look at the trichs. If ya dont know wat trichomes are, use the search feature for harvesting. Chances are yer plants are not gonna be "too done" (have ya ever seen over-ripe bud?)

Waaaaiiitttt until at least 50% of the hairs have receeded, you've probably got several weeks if only 20% of the hairs have turned.
