the ambers look like they're out on the sugar leaves. those form earlier and aren't as densely packed as the trich on the calyxes, they age faster and get damaged more than calyx trichs.
New white hairs with only a week left into flowering?!?

Hey folks.... I'm new at indoor growing and I added a 1000w light to an 800w during the last couple weeks of flowering. I wasn't sure what it would do... kinda hoping it might pump up my already big buds. I've been flushing her with water and honey for the last 4 feeds and was going to hang her to dry tomorrow..... but the buds started growing different than I expected.... I love it!!! But... The question I have is.... Will she be alright and still able to grow without her nutrients and fresh green leaves for 2 or 3 more weeks? She's even growing new buds down by the soil.

A few things:
1) try not to post in 2-year-dead threads
2) try to get pictures in focus and with natural light. Blurple and blurry pics make it hard to see what’s going on in any of these. However, from what I can tell,
3) that plant isn’t even close to ready. Most cannabis starts putting out new pistils after the first ones have matured and darkened. You have to look at trichomes and the size of the calyxes. I don’t know if she’s heat-stressed or suffering from N burn or what but she looks upset. I’d flush that honey out of your soil with 3x the volume of the pot worth of a *mild* nutrient mix, go back to feeding, and wait til you see mostly milky trichomes before you cut food again. Then harvest a week after that.

Good for you for trying your hand on growing but I'd not hold out much hope with this one. Honestly the plant looks very unhealthy to the point i'd be more nervous to smoke what comes off of it. I hope I'm wrong and that she bounces back. Suggestions for future grows would be doing research on the importance of environmental conditions, maintaining a clean growing environment, a space free of light leaks and finally use quality, lighting, soils and nutrients. Plenty of great information on this forum coming from people who are willing to help a new grower learn and improve their plants. Good luck with the current grow, hopefully it will turn out better than the photos lend themselves to believe that it will.

Depends on what you're looking for. I believe i see some foxtailing going on.
Actually it was a simple Q ..and your an idiot....but thanks for your opinion?...The 1000w light added to my 800 did the added flowering...she looks that way because she had almost leached out all the nutes from her leaves and soil and was ready to cut and dry before I added the extra light. ..... Shouldn't answer Qs if you don't know the answer or the plant well enough to assume. I know how old the post is and how bad my camera is..... Don't you got something better to do then type a bunch of nasty crap to strangers? Grow up.

The answer to your question, which two people gave you, is no, she won’t make it 2-3 weeks with no food. I agree with farmingfisherman that she may be beyond the point where you can get a particularly great harvest, but I don’t think it could hurt to try and support her til she’s actually ready.
You’ll get more and better answers if you avoid necrobumping, make a new thread, and provide some decent pictures with natural light. Just my genuine advice. I hope your day improves
I know this is an old thread but I've found myself in the same position and there's not a lot of info out there about this subject that I've found so far. I decided to comment because this is my first attempt and I had the same situation with my plant showing amber trichomes at six weeks on the sugar leaves with 70% white pistils still showing. I was thinking about cutting it but I decided to wait and now I'm at week 9 and It's showing new growth. I'm probably going to wait but I'd like more information. What was the outcome of your grow? Was the wait worthwhile?

70% white pistils = keep going
Sugar leaves will show amber trichomes, don't pay attention to those.
Just let the girls keep going, put the loupe up for a few more weeks AT LEAST.

If you want to go by breeders timelines, you need to subtract the 2-3 weeks of stretch.
Aka....if it's an 8 week strain, it's going to be more like 10-12 weeks before it's "finished", unless you vegged out to full maturity before the flip.
And even if you did veg out fully, I've yet to see any strain truely "finished" in 8 weeks.
