Usually the white hairs turn brown or yellow when the cycle is finished, Usually I wait at least till 1/3rd has turned darker but that depends on the strain a lot. since we do not know which strain this is it kind of hard to tell. The smell will tell you if there is TC nside. a strong hash odor lingering around the buds and finally is it resinous, sticky enough ? Once a plant shows these charcteristics it takes another 15 to 20 days for the optimu ripeness. The last trick is watching if the buds keep on gettng fatter without mold and rot. As long as I can expect more each ay I prefer to wait. It all depends but if you smoke a joint or bong from a small bud or side stem you should get high already from what I seee. But judging from pictures is impossible.

Ok, judging by the picture, in my opinion, she looks in excellent health.  She can still Stretch and make loads more buds.  The pistils look very lush and still White.  I see no turning of Colors, so I think she will Stretch some more, and if she does, that means more buds. My Suggestion is:  Keep up exactly your current feed schedule for one more watering, then make an interruption as follows:  After the next scheduled feeding, let her dry out about 3 or 4 days.  At that time, perform a mid-flowering flush with 6.2 pH'd water (in one feeding, slowly feed 3-times the volume of the Container).  The purpose of the mid-flowering flush is to flush unusable residues (salts) from the veg and early flowering phases out of the soil.  This will also help the plant to throw off (during the following 2 to 3 days) the excessive salts dissolved within it's cambrium tissues.  After those 2-3 days, the soil is somewhat dry again or when it seems she is demanding water (wilting fan leaves), then resume the feeding schedule for budding (according to your nute instructions).  Continue the schedule while she Stretches and further buds appear.  Consider cutting the feeding in half, even to one-quarter the scheduled feeding doses.  Remember you are growing in soil, so many of the nutes are already built into the eco-System of the soil. 

 

Now, during Stretch, (which could last 2 to 4 weeks longer depending on the strain, light, temps, etc.) those wonderful White hairs will continue to multiply outward and mostly upward.  When you begin to notice that some of the hairs on lower positions begin to change color towards Brown or yellow, No Panic.  And you're still not Close to best harvest time...      Now perform a late flowering flush same as before.  After this dries 2-3 days, now mix and feed a "Top Feeding"(such as one feeding Batch of BioBizz Top-Max or other manufacturer's "Final Solution".)  Do this for one feeding.  Final Solutions help the plant to continue Trichomes production and help the plant to rid itself of excess salts at the final stages of it's maturation.  After this "Final solution" feeding, there will be no more nutes added.  All feeding after the "final solution" should be only water from then on out every 2-3 days or whenever the wilt dictates as usual.

 

Now begin to watch the Trichomes closely.  New Trichs are clear.  They will begin to turn cloudy.  When about one-third of the Trichomes have turned cloudy, perform the last 3xvolume flush with pH'd water.  Now just sit back and wait.  The plant is now beginning to die as planned.  Harvest is near.  Now the Trichomes will begin to turn Amber.  When about 10% Trichs on lower buds have ambered or when more than 50% Trichs Overall have turned cloudy, then it is ready to cut.

 

Of course, The above is only a description of the optimal maturing of a plant.  Differences in strains, nutes, pH, temps, light, diseases, pests, and the owner's care and Patience play a role as to when is the best time to harvest.  The decision is entirely yours.  But I do know this, the better and longer the flushing, the sweeter and tastier the bud. 

 

The idea after the Trichs begin to cloud is not to Keep the plant alive, rather to help it die toward harvest in a cleaner state.

Something else, you don't have to harvest an entire plant all at once.  If some buds are ahead of others, you can harvest them first and continue pushing the less mature buds.  The buds remaining on the plant now have more light and circulation, and the plant can direct its remaining energy and resources to the remaining buds, potentially increasing their yield.

 

That way, you satisfy that insatiable desire to begin curing and continue to proceed toward a weightier and longer-flushed final harvest.  That would also give you the opportunity to compare harvests with different flushing durations.  The taste, the burnability, etc.
