Looking for tips for my first harvest, a few q's

So tomorrow is 7 full weeks. I am in no rush, one branch got broke off during the move to a new house and just before i moved i noticed spider mites before an infestation and took care of them with some DE powder and a homemade pepper/water spray. Still no sign of any spider mites coming back, that was roughly 10 days ago that i eliminated them before the move and still see no mite activity or them coming back at all.....hopefully. Anyway I dusted them with some DE, so now i'm trying to plan if I should spray/shower it now, or wait until it is done to wash just before drying/curing. Also I was wondering if anyone could give me an estimate how much longer i'm looking at. The hairs turned mostly red after the spray from heat/burning from the spray under the lights. As you can see there is a ton of new growth, which was halted when the mites showed up. Basically I noticed it seemed to stop growing/plumping 2 weeks ago, saw mites, eliminated, now the past 4 or 5 days the buds have really plumped up again and tons of new healthy looking hairs while none of the leaves are really yellowing at all. I figure at least another 2-3 weeks by guessing. Just looking for any tips, suggestions on someone's first harvest. Here are some pics. Thanks in advance for anyone kind enough to help. shot3.jpgshot2.jpgshot1.jpgmag1.jpgfull1.jpg

yea those buds still got some filling in to do. A good rule of thumb, Don't harvest until at least half of the hairs on the plant have turned red or amber.
