Ghost Train Haze -- Keep Going? Or trash em?

I have 4 GTH #1 plants growing in RDWC. They are under a Timber Redwood VS and I'm using GH Flora Trio for nuts. It is listed as an 8-10 week flowering strain, heavy sativa lady. Tomorrow will be the end of WEEK 16 of Flower! GTH is supposedly prone to foxtailing so I wasn't that concerned when they showed up. There are probably 10 of them with 7 of them being the same plant. I didn't turn the light down near fast enough so these things went wild. I put another scrog net up to try and keep em upright. Everything else stayed under the second net but I'm not sure that they got enough light. Please take a look at the pics, and give me some feedback on a plan...or just trash em and start over....hope not.

Week 10 I thought I would only have a couple of weeks left so I went to the next step in the nutes which cut out the "grow"..... now most of the leaves are turning a pale yellow and look like they are drying up.... Water temps have been 68-71 the entire time, tent temps have been between 60 and 88, but 90% of the time 70-80.

Here are a couple that were supposed to show the foxtailing but it is hard to see and also the yellowing of the leaves. They are all tied with string to my light now.

Here are some bud pics and some tric pics...thoughts?

Looks like nuked buds. Too much fertilizer.
I wouldnt 'trash' them now, you're too far along. Bud may not taste too great, but you can always use it for something else

I pulled a small sample bud this evening to get some better pictures of the trics and also to dry one out and test a bit. This stuff is some of the stickiest bud I have ever touched, the smell is strong on your hands after touching but not knock you over in the room strong. These trics are almost all clear to me. This was not one of the buds that shot out of the scrog net really high, it was chosen at random from the canopy where it is pretty even.

What do you think? Let her keep going? Chop/dry and see? Chop/trash?

Thanks

I wouldnt chop anything that young.. See it through
I probably will but dang, my 2x4 is doing great with Grease Monkey so I won't be in dire straights. I figured it would go a lot longer than the "8 weeks" so I didn't start cutting back on the nutes until end of week 10. The yellow part didn't start until maybe 10 days ago, I think that might be from not having any N for a month...who knows.

In the future you might want to use something for you're net other than that twine. That stuff sheds and will leave fibers stuck to your buds.
Good point, I didn't even think about that until I started taking pictures. :) Rookies smh

The tops yellowing is not from nitrogen deficiency. You need to read some books, or continue learning the hard way.

Thanks for the incredibly helpful answer there, I'll be off to the races with that kind of support. I obviously was mistaken as I thought this was a forum for people who enjoyed all facets of this plant to help each other learn and become better. I realize that there are some people who come on here and have never done any research. I am not one of them but do not have much experience actually growing...

I will never understand the people who feel the need to be rude or belittle people that do not have all the answers on this forum. If you don't have a positive comment or suggestion to make here, please just move on. No need in letting me know that you are the grow guru and I am the idiot.

I just happened to watch a video about the place that made this strain. The plants were beautiful but it was pretty rough watching them harvest colas that were 80% white pistils.

You'll gain more useful information from hands on experience than you'll gain from reading books.

hmmm, chop soon then heh? :) It is weird from everything that I have read. I'd imagine it was the light that sent them into foxtailing but the strain is known for it.
