Most plants require 8 weeks for flower. When about 80-90% of the pistils are reddish brown it is time to get hacking. If you look up the seed on a seedbank website it will tell you approx flowering time.

They go until the trichomes start to change color and then you ask again.

No offence but thats a awful way to try to judge if the plant is ready. you need to look at trichome maturation and caylx swelling, not the pistil color.
