My homemade grow box and is it time to harvest?

So this is my first grow attempt. I know it looks terrible but it seems to have done the trick.

This being my first time growing I was wondering if the plant is ready for harvest. Also I am concerned about the leaf yellowing. The plant was grown in plain soil and I have never used any fertilizer other than Chinchilla droppings. Will this eliminate the need for a two week flushing? Also if I still need to flush, do you completely drench the soil with water the first time to remove all nutrients?

Thanks for any help.

You are just starting to bud. That plant needs fertilizer asap.
 
I have this but decided to not use it. Is it to late to start using this, will it shock the plant back into veg? If I were to start how much of each to use per g of water? Sorry, I know this is a lot. I just want the first try to be a success.

Is that thing even safe? Is my first question.

My second question, is that food made for veg or bud? You want something with more PK to and less N. That looks like a rounded formula, it will work better than nothing at all. It should say on the bottle how much to use. I would use what it says for early bud or late veg, depending on what it is.

I highly recommend getting new fertilizer, made for budding, to avoid issues. Your plant won't reveg but too much Nitrogen could cause bud stretching/leafy buds.

I'd give it a little of each this time. Maybe a tsp of each per gal. And watch how they respond. Then plain water the next time, and then just the Bloom nute on the right. It looks like it wants more P. They use a lot of it during budding.
