Time to harvest

I'm very conflicted. I have one stealth plant, being grown in a speaker of mine. Germinated December 18th, vegged 6 weeks, and has been flowering since. Very distinctive and strong scent, covered in crystals, but half of the pistils (red hairs[?]) are still white. I'm not sure if I should harvest now. I know you are supposed to look through a jewler's loupe to check for crystal color (opaque, translucent, etc.) to see when harvesting should occur. However, not having a jewlers loupe, that's a wee bit difficult. I don't want to harvest prematurely, and had originally thought of a late July harvest, but leaves are dying slowly, it smells, and looks ready, due to a pretty good amount of crystal coverage. (i'll take a macro later.) Just wanted everyone's opinion.
