Could do with pics, but I reckon its just the plant sucking all the N nutes from the leaves. Don't panic, let it do its thing

Add a little N in your feedings, not too much though.

Don't chop @ 6 weeks, you'll only be disappointed in the potency, and yield.

WW can go as much as 10 weeks I do believe. There are so many versions out there.... I guess each one can be different to some extent.

What a good question, i would personally leave them go the distance as long as the bud dosen't start to die. Hell the bud might not be so great when finished and all that yellowing might have extended your finishing times. I know they say let your plant get a little Nitrogen deficient but that going way too far!lol!

Easly bud always smokes like crap so let it go if you can and maybe some nitrogen or whatever it needs, kinda would screw with the flush but i dont think this plant needs a flush.

More to the point how did it end up like this? You just fed her water or a fert NPK ratio 0:50:40 for the whole flowering? Peace

I'd try to let them keep going until either they make it (the trics will tell you when the plant is done), and by the looks of the pics, they should, or if for some reason they don't, I'd wait until it's near dead, and salvage what I could from it.

I think they'll make it though, yellowing is common in flowering plants. They look okay otherwise.

Too much N can mess things up at this stage in growing. 1/4 strength N supplement should do the trick. I grow in hydro and use 3 part nutes, so if my N levels are low, I just simply add some to the reservoir.

I would seriously look into some N though, that yellowing will soon turn to browning and crispy leaves, then the plant will not be able to absorb the light it needs to continue flowering as it should.

Keep it going as long as you can! If it sick and dying that's going to hurt the yield but if the tri's don't change to amber it will be on the mild side of the potency charts . When the buds start to rotting then you'll have to make a decision if and when to chop it;-)

Seems like the pics I take and post are nothing alike. I have an average quality camera, and experimented with it trying to get the best pics, and the best I came up with did my plants no justice.

Keep it growing, don't chop it yet. It has a ways to go before it wont grow anymore. Trust me.

That bit of bud dont look too bad, looks like you got some calyx swelling, after seeing that it would be a shame to chop when she might look a lot better in two weeks. Dont think it will be too dissapointing smoke by the looks of it but dont expect too much with big nute deficiencies. Up to you bro, as you grew it then i would look if it is swelling more everyday and more red hairs everyday, maybe just let her go one more week or as long as you can keep the buds healthy. Dont forget you probably got a lot of green leaf on the actual bud even if you have no fan leaves. Peace
