Based on white pistles on the tops it is still a few weeks.
You will see all pistles turn color and then start to retract into the plant. The calyxes will swell with resin and the real ice starts growing on the flowers.

Well you have a test tool and hopefully you know how to set it for DLI. Are you still on 12 12. Sorry to ask but I answer a few folks and sometimes conflate.
The first strain I ran was white widow and it loved light. I went to 65000 lux about 950 ppfd the last 3 or so weeks with no damage.
The latest run is an auto and the max I hit was 52000 lux but I was on 18-6 and that pushed the DLI to high and I had to back off. My symptoms were tacoing and curling of tips much more than painted nails. This would happen about hour 16 or so and by the end of the day cycle they looked pissed.
I then was talking about this on the Trainwreck thread and a few guys had found some indica leaning did a better finish by trailing off the last 2 or 3 weeks the light energy and even time. I used this procedure in my grow and the last plant was the best finish of the 4.
Raise lights up slowly and watch for 2 hours problems and then problems 2 hours to the end of the cycle. 2 limits to worry about. Saturation can damage quick although honestly with led you really have to be stupid. More prevalent is curling or burn at the end of the cycle for busting the DLI ceiling.

Can they still get painted nails even if the ppfd is in range for the stage of growth cause not sure if it was nutrient burn or light damadge

He is using shogun nutrient bloom. This is a mineral nutrient line not organic.
His biobizz had enough for a few weeks.
He is on the right track. Adding grow and bloom nutes and watching his dryback.
He should be using an EC PH tester with mineral nutrition but I can't make him and he is so close now just be an easy hand.
I really do not think he put enough nutrients in to even start a lockout.
At least being mineral he would not see fade for 10 days until it started the conversion. Feed uptake will be fast.

Thanks bud I did wonder why ppm & ec were being talked about

I disagree. I have been using them for years. I've never had issues with them. I have a number of them around the house. At least mine have been consistent regardless of which probe I use. Maybe yours weren't accurate but I swear by mine.

I’ve used 4 different kinds none impressed me at all still glad we can disagree without slinging mud
