So my sativa landrace plant has been flowering for a few weeks. I just got my loupe today! man what an amazing tool! anyway, I noticed most of the trichs are very milky.
Could I harvest now or should I wait for a minimal amount of amber trichs?
I want to harvest as close as posible to peak harvest on the early side because I hate stonny effects!
rumor has it is that early harvests are more awake head buzz, while the later harvests will be more sedative body high.

Don't harvest unless you want to waste your crop. Landrace sativa varieties should go at least 12 weeks, but often should go 14-16 weeks. If the variety is particularly equatorial, it can go even longer. Pure and original Haze can go 36 weeks of flowering to finish. A few weeks is not enough... unless by a few weeks you mean 12.
phychotron is pretty much right though, but for a landrace sativa, 12 weeks is the earliest you should go. The early window for some indica varieties is as little as 6 weeks.
If you really want to know, clip a test bud. But dry and cure it properly while your plant finishes and in 2-3 weeks you can see why you really should wait.
