The pics are a bit blurry and washed out, but I don’t see any shriveled pistils at all, so yeah, several weeks

At least 4, maybe 6 weeks.
Very generally speaking: i always just slate "10 weeks" for flower, give or take. But 10wks from flip is when I put a "harvest?" note on my calendar. Most plants need more, very few will need less. Also, I'm just growing my own homegrown & am notorious for pulling plants early to "keep things moving", you need to decide for yourself what "ripe" looks feels and smells like to you.
But still, generally, almost everything you're gona fuck with is right about 10wks at least as a point of checking ripeness

In my limited experience, this exactly.

your best bud you will grow will take longer than you think. Keep nourishing the plants all the way until the end, when the calyx's swell and pistols recede, then think about gauging harvest. Knowing lineage can help but every single plant can be a little different if it is from seed and not clone , but in my experience like Pop&son said it will be in the very least 10 weeks to consider harvest. The drying process will be much more forgiving with fully ripe buds. Your plant should be falling over from the weight and showing some autumn color effect
One thing I do like doing during the last week or so is dropping the light concentration down, temperature, and feed. I do not starve the plant but try to drop them all the same %. In my opinion the lower temps adds a higher terp profile, and with lower feed and lower light you aren't lowering the feed at all but still saving some nutrients and power, bringing you to a nice finish. If you're thinking about harvesting now just plan how you are going to control your drying time and see if you can get a 7-14 day dry time before you jar them up. I tried the grove bags last time I harvested and was very happy with the end product. I wish you well!
