Let them yellow. It is an annual, after all. This is fairly natural, IME.

Totally natural and normal, don't sweat it. You WANT the leaves nice and yellow when you harvest IMO, it means the plant has flushed itself.

no buds won't turn yellow they just won't dense (rock) up for you and you will be left with fluffy weed that no one wants to buy or worse bud rot or some other bud destroying issues but yellow buds are good .......look yellow

Thanks soserthc1. Your bud looks awesome! Do you know anything about how to make SD more dense? I mean I know SD are just naturally more airy but man, mine are like super airy...

every mistake in life is a possible learning experience, as long as your perspective is on track to make it that way. Like I've said before and will probably say again about a thousand times in my life, if only I had a nickel for every mistake I've made... but I try to learn from them all.
As far as what additives to use during flowering, pick someone who's work you respect on the forums and ask them what they use. It's a six of one half a dozen of the other mess with no clear answer when you start asking a bunch of growers about what the "best" of anything is to use for growing.
I'd personally recommend asking Seamaiden. She knows a metric fuckton about growing outdoors.

Actually I should of read your post more clearly yellowing of outdoor plants around this time of year are naturally as all the nitro has been used up. Now as far as your buds densing up - if they are not dense by now and outside , they most likely didn't get enough sun - Don't know where your at but its to late now as Smallzz stated take it as learning experience , the weed will still be better than paying for it and again seamaiden & caregiver would be your best info on outside growing. I don't have that opportunity thou I still did it was nothing to brag about as it was hidin and sun deprived and cut to early (due to smell) except for 1 plant i left in the sun and let stay out longer
hope this help - its always a learning experience when starting and after a few runs you will know if its your thing .....

? How sure are you that they're premature? I rarely am able to take any OD lady when she's completely stopped producing white pistils. That doesn't necessarily mean they're immature, though.
Also, that airiness is fine, I wouldn't worry about. Honestly, when I'm handed buds that are like rocks, I find myself wondering about them, I don't think that's something that really occurs naturally with all strains, I think it's forced (especially because I've never been able to achieve it..? Yep, I confess). So hard that I can't break them apart by hand, I think somethin's wrong. But, some time in a vacuum-sealed bag can tighten 'em up, if you like. ;)

definitely have to agree with Sea on the tight buds. If you're growing outdoor in soil and not some trick hydro setup, airiness to a degree is to be expected, unless someone's using some sort of chemical that I wouldn't want to be smoking anyway. It's also really strain dependent, something like cheese or something in that family (uk, blue, etc etc) is apparently a strain that finishes outdoor a lot like it does indoor. Sour D on the other hand, I've seen it come airy to a degree from indoor hydro setups as well.
A good trim job and being packed correctly in a bowl makes a world of difference too. I'm anti-automatic trimmers since they always do a halfass job.

Here are some pictures, I can't tell if they are premature, what are your guy's thoughts?All outdoor, I was thinking I should have waited a little longer to harvest...?
The first picture is Mr. Nice, SD (but I'm thinking its mixed because it has a fruity almost pineapple smell) and Sour OG.

Good sour d never looks that good. Same with some ogs. Outdoor isn't going to be as dense due to waning light as the day ends. It doesn't just turn off like indoor.
