New hairs mean new bud growth. But that doesn't mean you should delay harvest necessarily. At this point, you should be watching the trichomes (little white frosty things on the leaves and bud) to see when you should harvest. If they're mostly milky white, you're going to get an up high, less body stone. If most are amber colored, more of a couch stone.

Great looking buds by the way. Props on your grow man!

the hps light doesnt do them justice......
they looked ready until a few days ago these new hairs appeared
im gonna harvest the colas and maybe give the bottoms another week to ripen up alittle bit......i have about 9 plants that will be harvested in the next 2 weeks.........

i dont think that trichrome colour relates to the type of high....
all they do is indicate when to harvest. which is when the majority of them have turned orange/amber.
