wondering when i should harvest, its still two weeks until the stated 10 weeks are up but some of the buds are going orange/red.

What part goes red when its ready to harvest?? is it the white bits that come out of the bud or the clear hairs that are on the bud leaves? as you can see the white hairs that are on the bud are now orange but the hairs are still clear, is it time to harvest??

"the white bits that come out of bud" are hairs. Some people harvest when 50% of the hairs have changed to a red/brown/orange color from the original whitish color.

"the clear hairs... on the bud leaves" are called trichomes. These are better to go by when determining when to harvest. Most people prefer to harvest when 50% of the trichomes have turned an amber color from the originally clear color. This results in the most even head/body high. They are very small though. You're going to need a strong magnifying glass or mini microscope to see them well.
