Any idea how far from harvest?

This is my first plant and I'm getting eager to say the least. I was worried she was going to die from issues I had early on, but she has trucked on through. I know I'm supposed to wait, ideally, until about 50-70% of the hairs have turned red and the tri chromes are a creamy type color. If I'm waiting for the hairs to change color will the entire hair be changed? If some of the hairs are still white towards the bottom it's not finished yet, correct?
From the pics I was hoping someone could give me a ballpark idea-they were barely changing color yesterday, but today it's changed much more in color.

I'm new as well so take this with a grain of salt but it looks like its maybe 6 weeks into flower so depending on your strain you may have another couple weeks. Hopefully someone with more experience can chime in.

Thanks Jr, I was thinking late September into October, but once I saw them change color that quick I wasn't sure if the schedule was a bit ahead. I'm not sure the strain, was a bag seed, so timing that way may be difficult. I'll just make sure to keep a close eye and not get too eager haha.
Do you know if the entire hair will have a even dark color when done, you don't want to see any white left?

From what I've read, going by the trichomes is the best way to go I don't know if they hairs are super reliable. For me I am looking for more of a THC concentration so I will be harvesting mine as soon as I see a couple trichomes turn amberish. But again I stress the fact that I am just as new as you so this is all theory for me and I am mid experiment to prove it lol

Yeah from my reading that is a more reliable way to decide as well. Luckily I already have a loupe so maybe I'll pull her inside in a week or two and have a good look at her under magnification. Good luck with your harvest.

You still have I'm guessing 3 weeks or so left. When you check the trychomes do so from the calyx not the leaves. The leaves mature much faster and is a false reading.

That's about what I thought to and what I've read.

4-7 weeks, just like almost everyone else in the northern hemisphere

I usually go for cutting two weeks after all the hairs have receded.growing outdoors doesn't always give you that opportunity
