I'd say another week or two at best. Watch those hairs as they turn more amber they will also start to wrap into the bud, that is when you know it's real close. This along with seeing those trichomes at a better resolution and if they are milky white, then you have a couple days in which to harvest. If yougo past those couple of days, and the trichomes change to dark amber it is starting to degrade.
As an FYI, when they state 8-9 weeks remember this was done under optimal conditions and a fully lab like run on them. When an average grower does it or first timer, we rarely hit the optimal set ups. Your plants look great, nice grow.

Cannabis breeders and a "fully lab-like" run? Surely you jest.

In any case, there is a range of what optimal is, but there are too many variables within optimal that could be slightly different than what's going on in the breeder's tent that will affect flower times. That is assuming the seeds are from a breeder that is not listing a shorter flower time in order to elicit sales.

Then you have some breeders that call day 1 of flower when the lights are flipped to 12/12 and some breeders that call day 1 of flower when the plant throws its first pistils in flower.
