My first girl is a few days from harvest and the lower leaves are yellowing and wilting. Should I leave them attached or pluck them?

Most leaves, if not all will fall off at end of life cycle (dah) They are done providing, so they die off, just like all those other yellow leaves (probably) you have on your plant. What they signal at this time is that you have won the battle, and have a completed plant, now cut, dry, and enjoy!
 
What do you think of the trichomes? Few more days or could I harvest tomorrow?

I always left the plant like it was meant to grow. read about trimming the water leaves about the same time as my 10 day flush. also picked the lower small buds and had butter faster. to be honest. i got more than i got just leaving the plant alone.
 
When you harvest will determine that to a degree but it does depend on the genetics of the plant. Again a full bud shot would help not just a close up, I don't even see any calxys mainly just leaf so I'm guessing you have more time. How long have you been flowering? Wouldn't want you to make a first timers mistake and harvest early for a less than stellar result
 
What if I'm going more for the upper, heady high and not so much couch lock? How much does that matter?
When you scope the trichs, if they are 25% amber, that is enough for your optimum high (clear and lucid). You can wait another week until you reach 50/50, but to me that means around 20% of the optimum "clear" high is gone. If you want to play chess, cut at 25% amber, if you want to lay back and do nothing but have your old lady nibble your balls, go for totally dark trichs. Your call
 
Hahaha yall are clownin, I love it. Shes a bit stunted cuz I planted her Sept 29 and she was forced to flower way too early. There were other stupid rookie mistakes. She's got little buds but they're maaad potent

Just lower leaf die off, no problem

With all due respect I disagree,you have tip burn and spotted crispy leaves.Even some leaves close to the top.When a plant sheds leaves,they will turn a pale yellow and drop off,not what you have there looks to me.Honestly looks like a calcium lockout to me.
