  2. Some pistils turn orange. Not all of them will turn orange.
     
  3. Keep an I on the trichomes, once you start to see the a few amber ones turning up I'd harvest... Whatever colour the pistils are
     
  4. I'd let them fatten up a bit more, going by trichs alone can be very misleading because older THC begins to turn amber Although you may still see clear ones, they have not ripened, harvest the plant when they are ripe, because you gain about 50% of total weight in the last 2 weeks when the calyx swells.

    Start your flush, and harvest once the swell happens and the hairs start to recede in the calyx
