Lots of amber 2 weeks before breeders recommended flower

[Purfict]

So just into week 7 flower, plants are quite stressed from nutrient lockout (2nd grow and learned not to feed every watering). Lots of mistakes, but better than the last grow. I see lots of amber, would you guys chop soon? I can give them one more water?

Are the amber trichomes on the sugar leaves only?
Make sure to look specifically at the buds, the sugar leaf trichomes can mature more quickly and harvesting based on that can give you less then desirable effects.

That picture is a side/top view of the top cola on the bud. Here’s one zoomed out

I like it like that do any side colas look like that? If that's a photo you could just take the ripe ones and leave the remainder on the plant to ripen more, done that a few times.

I’ll have to look at the lowest buds when I get a chance. That picture is not from a main cola that came from a topping, so i’d imagine those ones are even more ripe

Where as that's a purple bud that could have something to do with the color of the trichomes, as some trichomes are purple, did the breeders blurb mention that by chance?

All 4 plants are the same strain, that one just reacted differently to nutrient lockout than the others I believe. I think it is just a strong phosphorus deficiency combined with some fading from low night temps. Looks good, but the strain isn’t supposed to have purple.

Wish i had low overnight temps right now. Plants and me could both use some cooler night temps.

I’ll go from 75 lights on to 60-65 by night. It’s never below 70° outside at night, just have my setup in the basement

I think it looks good. It could be harvested now, but another week would be okay.

By the looks of the bud i’d say you have atleast another 2 weeks left.

That's cool bit unusual too, looks frosty!

Here’s a whole bunch of pics to get better opinions. Facing lockout in the tent, so it doesn’t look the prettiest, only my 2nd grow. All close ups are the lowest bud I could find
