Always add 2 weeks to any breeder information on harvest or flowering, honesly, at minimum. Do you have a jewelry scope? I always go by the trics and the hairs, and the swollen of the buds. In my opinion I don't think it's ready, could uses more time fore sure to fatten up

Damn another 4 aye I didn't think it would be that much longer
another 4 MINIMUM, those pics may just be a bad angle to judge but by the looks of them you're hardly even 4weeks into flower yet, most strains average about 10 weeks of flower time, some are done in as little as 8week, some take up to 14weeks, as cannabis.queen said its best to go by color of trichs, hairs, and swolleness of the buds, worst thing you can do is chop too early because of impatience and end up with a much smaller much less potent harvest than you wouldve had. Id suggest taking more pics from more of a side-veiw angle, could give a better indication of how far along you are, but those buds look way young.

Like example mine stil have ways to go, even if they are fat and beautiful 
Patience is so key to growing, you waited this long so might as well wait until they are actually done

there ya go thats a better pic, and now i can say without a doubt you have probably 5-ish weeks left. i know the waiting sucks but trust me you will be thanking us in the end! keep up your nutes for atleast 4 weeks and start to wean off them for the last week or so so the buds have a nicer flavor to them. looking good so far man!

I was having some issues with pm
Some people actually do believe in heavy defoliation during flower, i personally do a moderate defoliation 3 or 4 times during a plants life usually twice during veg and once during flower, it helps keep more(ideally all) of the bud nodes in direct light and also manage space when working with a larger number of plants in a smaller area.

Feed her increasing nutes until the flush. I grow organic so there is no flush.
Harvest timing is an individual decision.
Most "experts" will tell you to wait until 20-30% of the trichomes are amber in color. This allows for more weight to be added also.
Amber trichs means the THc is breaking down.
Some growers wait to ensure that the majority of trichs are milky white/cloudy. This is when THc levels are the highest.
IMO You have a window of about a 7-10 days to harvest in peak condition.
I usually cut a week early because of weather and mold. Otherwise I would go until the last week in October for my sativas.
