First Time Grower - Am I ready to harvest?
Hairs (pistils) are not an indicator of plant maturity. The trichomes are. (the sticky, sappy stuff coming out of the mature plants' leaf pores)

Mostly milky with some rusty trichs - Mature - Good luck getting off the couch for a while. Usually best for meds. Explosive once inhaled.
Mostly rusty trichs - Overmature - effects and flavors start degrading as the plant dies. (akin to perfumed straw)
ugabud420: You've got a month to go, minimum.
If you plan ahead, sativa dom's are not a problem indoors. Pure sativa's are a bitch though, and plenty of headroom is necessary.
