None of this matters because Indy SH is the most fun setting.

I'm assuming you're talking about booming while rushing. Booming centralizes around producing citizens, gathering food, and gathering wood. To jump start a boom, throw some extra citizens on hunt, to allow you to quickly gain some more while still making army. You should rally them to wood. With that wood, you'll want to throw up a farm. Wood.. farm.. more cits.. wood.. farm.. more cits..

In SH, you should TC a mine at around 10 F11 (assuming your cits haven't been raped bad). Not before 8F11 and I wouldn't say later than 15F11 unless something goes wrong. You should do this because for one, you should be at the point where you need more iron/gold for your army and two because your food gathering is exceeding the speed that your capitol can produce citizens. By 30F11, if pop cap permits, you should have both of your iron/gold mines TC'ed and just starting to add a third mine.

If you end up with A LOT of iron/gold and your food isn't keeping up, don't be afraid to take a few citizens off and stick them on wood to help you get a farm. As a rule of thumb, you should try to keep all of your current resources at 0. Spend it as fast as you get it. If you have gold/iron you can't spend, then make a quick adjustment so you're getting more food (or wood if its siege)

Booming from the start of the game is a little bit different, depending on if it's an F11 game and how much time you want to spend on just your economy. In SH, when I boom from the start I just send all 20 citizens to wood for one delivery (300 wood) or maybe a little longer than that. That allows me to jump straight to having a forage, almost 2 full farms, and then a TC. If I have at least 15F11 solely for booming, I'll then immediately shoot for another TC. You want to get as many cits as you can and as quickly as possible.

Another rule of thumb: 1 farm for every TC/Capitol. 6 citizens on a settled forage with hunt bonus in civ and in a later age (Imperial+) I would consider equivalent to a farm.

If you're at the stage where all you know is a starting build order, you just need to learn how to deviate from it when necessary and improvise. It's something that takes awhile to learn, but when you do get the hang of it, it will put you at a large step above the competition.
