If you harvest now, your high will propel you into activities. If you wait until the hairs are brown you'll have a sleeper stone. But I think you probably need to flush for 2 wks for a decent taste. And by then they'll (hairs) be brown. Looks like an indica anyway. I'd let it mature somemore.

sure her(?) timing is off, but other than that everything said is pretty acurate....
cloudy trichs, or an early harvest, will produce an active heady high, let them amber out and it'll beocme a very medicinal couch lock high.

you do not want to be flushing yet.... the bud isn't even forming yet!
as the bud forms, calyx's will form and the hairs will receed back into them.
for some perspective
there's one of mine, and shes not ready for harvest yet..

you just have to stop thinking about harvesting right now and think about the fact that you've still got to grow it.

Can you tell from this photo how much longer it would be 'til I should flush? I'm thinking the time is close. The pistils are looking not as creamy and are starting to curl, darkening a bunch. I hope it isn't too late to flush. I'm doing it this week anyway.
The red light is the UFO/Stealth light. Can't take my lady into natural light for another picture due to a blizzard here.
Anyhow, this has been flowering for about a month now. So time is getting close.

i can't make out anything from the picture, need closeups under nautral light as you say, but i know of NO marijuana strain that will flower and finnish in a month. there are a couple of 6 weekers i'm aware of, although my 6 weeker took 7, but after 1 month she definately won't be done

here are some tips on deciding when to harvest.
first- when about 50 % of your hairs have turnded brown or red.
2nd- get a good magnifying glass and look at trichomes when about 50% of those turn amber it is then time to harves..(they will turn from clear to amber)
i recomend always using the second method because that will give you the exact harvest time when your buds are most potent and have not yet started degrading
try to get an 8 to 30x magnifying glass and the higher x the better..
good luck
