To harvest or not to harvest?

Just an update, here is what she looks like now :) Thank you all again so much :) Not time to harvest yet, I don't think.

You still have quite a ways to go. Some are turning brown/orange which is a good sign. I'd still wait 3 more weeks.
What he said, you will be selling yourself short if you harvest now. Get yourself a cheap magnifying glass and spend some hours reading up on Trich colour, bud density. Looking healthy!

Most cannabis strains take 8-10 weeks of actual flower time. Which means after the plant starts to show flowers.

Some strains and phenotypes are a little faster and some are WAAAY slower.

Most of them put on lots of weight the last 2-3 weeks so you do not want to cut early if you can avoid it. Letting the plants fully mature will give the best flavor, yield, and potency.

Your plant has 3-5 more weeks. It's to early to tell for sure honestly. But it's still growing fresh new calyxs and the buds are getting bigger.

Once the buds stop getting bigger and the pistils all turn then the calyxs will swell up and the buds will pack on weight. That's when you can check trichomes to determine your final harvest point.
