Thanks all!
You know majority of the time leaves do start to yellow and there are some that are there and others that I have pulled off.
I judge the ripeness of my flowers by pistol coloration and character, trichome developmemt, fulless of calyces and actual overall look of the flowers structure.
I pulled this one out of the tent yesterday and set it in my dark drying room. It will have been in there for 24 hrs before chop!
Cheers and thanks

Yes, just one plant that I topped in prep for a SCRoG. I topped it let it grow out some and LST'd it then just let her go!

My leaves hadn't fully yellowed yet and I chopped mine literally last night. Good looking nugs man. I'm about to add a Blueberry Kush to my flower tent and am excited to see how she turns out. What kind of light did you use?
Here's a pic of my quicksand kush. Cut 51 days after flipping to 12/12.

Thanks man! I use the exact same bulb but instead im running the 400w eye hortilux along with 450w viparspectra LED side by side. I might switch to a 600 watt dbl ended fixture for winter time. I also use a t5 for veg. I have a 4 ft 8 tube t5 . It's really nice to have the option of running only 2 tubes when I'm vegging clones. Then adding more as they get bigger. Think there 54w bulbs that emit 5,000 lumen each. So if I have all 8 on it puts out 40,000 lumens.

Nice looking buds in your top pic man that's impressive size for running led. What led is that btw?? And the flowers look yellow probably because its getting close to being done right?

Thanks man. Its a Unit Farm UFO80 led. 175w draw, cree and osram diodes. 2x2x4 built grow box. The strain is a 45-55 flower period. Id say the leaves were going to shyt about 35 days in. Been feeding then. But believe the buds are sucking out all the stored nutrients in the leaves.

I like how short you kept that plant allowing all those nugs to completely engulf those branches. I'm trying to find the perfect finishing height for growing indoor with my light setup. I think I need to keep them no taller than 3 ft. Maybe even limit to 2 and a half ft. No point in extra veg time if I have to cut off the bottom 3rd of the plants branches ( lollipop) to be able to focus on the upper 2/3 when I can do less veg time and only have to remove a few lower branches
