Question BIG BUD harvesting help needed (with pics)

Hi everyone,
I have been flowering some of these plants since the 2nd week of August and most of my buds are not ready yet. Some of them have 70 to 80% reddish hairs either on the top of the buds and not below OR one side is ready while the other side has just started to ripen.

My question is:

Am I supposed to wait until the entire bud turns 80% ready or just the tops of the bud 'cause most of these buds are really thick and heavy with layers and layers of buddy stuff?

I hope someone out there understands what I am saying because I am really unsure as to when to pick these BUT I do understand the tutorial.

I'll add some pictures so you know what I am talking about. These were taken about 4 days ago or so.

Hey, whats going on? I guess not to many ppl are up at this time.
They look really good, from what I have read you might need 1-2 weeks. Do you know the stran. and how long have you had these in flower?
Can you get a closer pic so we can see the trics.
They look so so SEXY.
GLG.

Default awee thanks

Awee thanks guys. Unfortunately this new camera sucks and doesn't take great close ups but I will try and take some closer pictures. Unfortunately I do not know the strain of any of these plants and have never had the opportunity of growing a strain that I knew BUT I ordered some seeds yesterday. All my plants are unknowns!!!
They seem to be taking a lot longer than most other people's but I do live is a zone 5a in Canada.

I guess it is still very early,...I forgot about the time.

If you are so impatient and worried about when to harvest outdoors and need someone to tell you what to do then wait till after the FIRST FROST to harvest.

Default impatient

I'm not at all impatient. If I was impatient I would just be picking the buds now and forget about waiting. I've grown for 15 years now but haven't picked them in the prime and I just want some opinions.
I'm not worried either, I just want the best bud to smoke just like everyone else.

My main question is:
Do I wait until I see red hairs throughout the 'entire' bud or just the tops of them?
