It's entirely strain dependent, and I can't think of a single strain that would be ready yet. Even if you are going for a head high, you still need to go by the trichome cloudy/amber chart. I'd say harvest when you start to see the very first amber if you wnat the headiest possible high for that strain.

Hmm - so you're saying that an early harvest results in a different high? I have not heard of this - why is that?

It's because the THC has not had the time yet to degrade into the compounds that cause couchlock and the body stone.

hey braniac blackberry, you want to ready and "study" this.
Marijuana Botany - Chapter 4 - Maturation and Harvesting of Cannabis (http://www.mellowgold.com/grow/mjbotany-removed/marijuanabotany4.html)

if they are secure, leave those plants out!!!! forget about that head/couchlock, it is splitting hairs, and many people don't realize a head high is just a Weak high, if you want a head high, drink a pot of coffee, otherwise let those plants out until mid october so they ripen. do they look like they are dying yet, the window before they are overripe is probably about two weeks, and the colder temperatures will eventually stop them growing anyway, it'll take a lot to kill those girls, believe me!
