You still got a good few weeks there mate. The "Right" time to harvest is when the THC is at its optimum levels. This is when about 75% of the pistilles (The white hairs) have gone brown/redish brown.

Saying that, the best way to know is when the trichs turn cloudy.

Its your choise when you harvest, but when you think they look good and ready, give it 1 week, you wont loose, but may even gain. Cannabis plants flower the most in the last 3 weeks of the maturation period.

Its looking good. Have fun with that!

beautiful pics...props to the photographer!

It's hard to say when they'll be ready. Be patient, and wait until 80% of the hairs turn brownish.

Best I got,

I completely agree with Rekap... i have the same microscope from radioshack (although radioshack no longer exists LOL). The trichs give you a better idea of harvest time than the pistil colour.

AMAZING looking plants and pics... mad props,

it looks like buds are still growing. I would wait if I were you...1 week makes a lot difference in weight and appearance

they look about 14 to 10 days away from harvest, a great friend of mine says that once you think it is ready leave it another week and you will thank me in the end , lol, but it looks like a bit more bud formatoin is to be to be formed there, i have white russian, in flower and they are 14 days from the 8 weeks that is stated for harvest and they look exactly like your pics, so troop on and you will have some wicked buds there, the postman.
