I got NEM harvesting set up.... But
I just dumped 11k into my account NEM wallet... and there is an error that pulls up that says "Oops! ERROR 700 NIS: HARVESTING INELIGIBLE". Does the delegated harvesting need to be at a certain level for me to start harvesting... and if so is this done automatically or do I need to do something special?

You need 10k XEM 'vested'. 10% of your unvested balance vests every 24 hours. So tomorrow you will have 1.1k XEM vested. 2 days from now you will have 2090(1.1k XEM + 990 XEM) xem vested.
