I've followed your advice...is it time to harvest?

So, I was told to wait 2-4 more weeks before thinking about harvesting. That was 3.5 weeks ago...

The plant is now at a stage where all the bigger buds are weighing the branches down & drooping.
Some of the very top leaves got crispy ends, which could be due to overdoing it with the bio. I gather it's called "Nute burn".

Here's where the buds are at now...

The tops are really sagging now & the surrounding leaves no longer have the same vibrancy as leaves lower down.

The plant was germinated & planted on April 1st (no joke!) so is it finally time to harvest it?

This is my first time growing. It was indoors, on a windowsill, getting around 8 hours of sunlight at the peak of summer.
It had a couple of problems with bugs that had to be addressed & I didn't start feeding it extra nutrients until 6 weeks ago.

Is it worth "flushing" at this stage?

Nothings worth it at this point. Just chop it.
Start your next ones.

I cut it up earlier & took off what large leaves where remaining. I'll look over it again tomorrow & maybe pick off a few more but I gather I'm supposed to leave the branches like this for a week, before I prep them more for curing...

Correct me if I'm wrong. This is my first grow & I'm getting my info from YouTube.

Overfeeding & lack of sun sounds about right. I think I may have put too much bio in the water for the last couple of times of watering.
Also, the change in temperature has made the windowsill really damp (heaters under the window & sub-zero outside for much of the last 10 days.
The very top bud really didn't look great & has lost a fair bit of its smell. All the others seem OK, from what little I know.

This was always gonna be trial & error for my first grow & I've learned a lot. Hopefully by next March they'll have legalised weed here (it's gonna happen, I'm just not sure when). Then I can try out a grow lamp kit & give it the full amount of light it needs for a decent yield.

I’m playing but honestly if you kept that alive for 8 months you have what it takes to improve. 1st is tough and that ain’t the toughest I’ve seen. Better luck next time

edit : I mixed up the 8 months from another thread, but you still kept it alive.

I had one of my plants do that weird reverse taco on me too. Like the whole plant did it The whole grow, only mildly recovered. I assumed I had screwed it’s ph or something at some point and it just had funk leaf’s.
