I usually wait in till most of the hairs change color and die back and I see about 10% amber with my microscope before I even think about harvesting.

I bought the seeds from seedsman. They are listed as the breeder.

I'd wait until more pistils are orange. Also, get a jewelers loupe so you can check trichome heads. You want a cloudy/milky color on the heads before harvesting. As heads become more amber you will get more of a couch lock "stoned" effect vs uplifting energetic buzz IME.

Seedsman white widdow is pretty good smoke, I really really like it, but they are as guilty as most other seed banks of selling polyhybrids under the name of classic strains.
I like seedsman, I highly recommend peyote gorilla and peyote wifi from their catalogue.
Tangent: I try to hunt strains based on characteristics I like and go from there. Going down the rabbit hole is where I learn most of what I know about the history of marijuana and its cultivation. Plus, you might stumble upon some info leading you to the real deal holyfield classic White Widdow, blue dream, chem #4, etc.
What did it taste or smell like if you can remember of course lol ?

What do the trichs say? If they're within the harvest window your trying to be in then yeah, a bunch of fuckers on the internet will all tell you a bunch of different things

I don't. It was my first solo grow and as you'll see in these pics, it wasn't exactly the healthiest plant in the world. The high (as best as i can remember it) was very relaxed but focused.
Also, I don't smoke enough to have a good pallet for taste, and I get so fucking high I probably wouldn't remember it.
Tolerance Break isn't just a username lol
The WW from seedsman is the tall gal in the back.

Looks like it's in its prime......still vibrant.....robust . I hate pushing those gals until they look like they been " walking the streets " for the last 35 years . Not a pretty sight . The amber trichomes on sativa may take some patience ( well worth it ) ...
I like 50/50 , milky/amber.

Not OP but I grew and liked this one I remember it had a very sharp smell and with some Sandalwood. I liked it very much
Cool well It should have some of that going on but piney and bittersweet is usually the main notes ime like almost minty but not as well its a hard one to describe ig

Yeah it was a super complex smell( and unique)and I’m not the best at describing smells at all anyway.
