When can I harvest I'm almost 4 weeks into flower I have about 50 percent orange hairs what do you think? Should I let it keep going for four more weeks or flush and wait two more weeks

Monitor the trichomes the white to brown hair ratio isn't a real scientific indicator the trichomes are and their ripeness. Translucent is good but too early, cloudy trichomes are certainly what's desired. I believe without seeing pictures of your trichomes that your in that stage. Once you see amber trichomes you want to consider harvesting them. You got pictures of your trichomes? From what I see I'd run them three more weeks so start flushing roughly in one week. Little side note some people wait till 50% of all trichomes are amber. Some plants as I learned today however never get amber trichomes and their caps are just falling off. Pretty looking flowers you got there so good luck and have a wonderful harvest. Namaste

Unless it is an auto strain, I think you could go another 4 weeks to allow things to get big and fat. They look good but 4 weeks is a pretty short flowering time and I think they would continue to grow for a while yet. On Indica plants, I look for odd, single bladed leaves growing out of the bud's tips, which is the beginning of foxtailing. At that point, I consider them to be at their peak, although they will sometimes continue to grow on a distorted manner.
