Hi
This auto is in week 9 from seed. It has all yellow fan leaves because I started to flush last week. But looking at trichomes it’s 80% milky and 20% clear. How more longer before harvest you guys think? Is ok to wait even if leaves yellow? I want some amber trichomes but I am not sure if waiting is good idea I do not want the buds and sugar leaves turn yellow

They don't look to bad. But in the future you should feed till the plants is ready. Then when it looks done...give it a week more without food.

Better to just feed low in the end than to flush all the nutes out early and then have issues during some of the most important parts of the plants life. You want to have the plant naturally fade like trees in the fall.

You may have 2 or 3 weeks to go still. It is not possible to guess how much longer. Only way would to grow the same strain over and over again.

Nothing wrong with giving a light feed at this point. It will not make your weed taste bad.

Thank you for your advice
I admit I started flushing too early but I just gave her food 400ppm 2-6-8 with some Mg and Sulfur should be enough for now

You got sucked into the bioscience and starved your plant, I would suggest next time you feed until you chop them down. Ok to taper off towards the end but never flush/starve your plants and you will see better results. Good luck.
