Look to your trichs. Get as close a pic as you can, under white light. Once the majority of your stamen(pistils, stigmas, hairs whatever you want to call them) have colored and receded back toward the calyxs, it's time to watch your trichomes. They'll start standing straight out and clear, then the cap will swell and start to turn cloudy, then they will start to collapse, leaning over from the weight of the cap and will start to turn amber. I personally harvest when I'm between approximately 5&10% amber. Your test samples don't need to be large but they should come from multiple points on the plant in question. I've generally found that once you're pretty sure you're done, you've got a week.

Also, keep an eye on how old your plant is, but don't base harvest off of time alone. Seed to harvest timelines are in perfect growing conditions, most of us cannot achieve that, and our times can be 3-4 weeks longer because of the environmental variables and good old human error.

:weed:Great idea to wait longer, its hard to distinguish if they are orange or brown hairs (pistols) in the blurple light... But im assuming orange pistols with some white still. It will be hard to hear, cause im in the same boat as you, but yeah... Give it closer to 80 days and you wont regret it. Just finished day 58 over here and prolly gonna keep em going til mid Dec.
Happy growing bro!
