any advice, hints, and tips will help too
Harvest when the heads on the "bolbuous" trichomes turn foggy. Clear heads indicate immaturity while amber heads indicate the beginning of degredation. A hand held microscope from Radio Shack ($10) or a jewlers loupe will help see them clearly.
By the pictures, I say they're still way inmature. 2-3 weeks to harvest..at least would be my guesse.

so basically look at the white hairs and wait for them to turn red? lol

that isn't at all what I said. The pistils(white hairs) turning colors is not the most effecient form of judging maturity.

i have no clue what heads on the "bolbuous" trichomes turn foggy would mean...maybe i do, just not in "proper" form
and quick question, my friend is growin too and he harvested and his smells like hay kinda...is that normal?
trichomes are the sparkly crystal looking glands that should be prominent/evident on your buds. "Bolbulous" triches are the ones that look similar to mushrooms. They mature in three stages, clear=immature, cloudy/turning white=mature, amber=beginning to degrade.
Here's a pretty good link..
