White widow now on week 8 of flower leaves are turning and it's coming to near the end . By looking at a glance the plant does not look ready still some colour on the leaves but maybe not far to go . But there are tonnes of white pistils . But the trichomes are pretty much all cloudy

Leaves are “turning “ because it is trying to feed itself … it has a couple of weeks left but plant may give up the ghost before it’s actually done.

If your cannabis plants have leaves turning yellow during flowering, they could be sending you a warning. ... If the leaves are turning yellow during the final weeks of flowering, this is perfectly natural. Your plants are simply diverting resources to bud growth and letting the leaves die off. This is a good thing.16 Jul 2021.( Edit Hey man what am I to do with this information )

No … yellowing leaves for one loses pigmentation- important for photosynthesis. That’s why I said it could give up the ghost before actually finished.
Can anything from ph to overwatering. People that flush often cause this by leaching .

Yours have been turning yellow too soon and a while
 
Sometimes I look at pictures of plants and think 'poinsettia'. It's the way some of the top leaves seem to add color.

this is somewhat true for outdoors when autumnal coldness stiffles soil-life & make it harder to drink, too so they just use up all their stored energy, but indoors not so much.

the overall status of bud-development would imply the growth been stunted.

Take them to day 70. Then chop.

Hard to tell . many people tell me it's normal for plants to turn yellow when coming up to harvest

Its normal for plants to turn colour when they have been flushed for nutrients. From the sound of it you have been feeding full strength all the way to this point which could be causing a build up of salts in the soil, thus causing nutrient lockout. Instead of feeding so much you can Feed, Water, Water, Feed, basically flushing the plant in between feeds with pH'd water+calmag/sweetgrape depending on veg or flower. Thats the regimen I use for my plants complete life cycle to prevent build up of salts.

I had considered the feed water feed water. I will have to adjust and focus more on what works

My next set up I'm thinking of SOG and growing clones from a mother . veg for 4-5 weeks or 6-10 inches then transplant to fresh soil , realistically I will only need to feed for 3-4 weeks or at all if I use super soil with soil amendments if needed . So myt go down that route .

I agree, that’s not a fade.
Something’s up with the soil.

Re: the pistils, your calyxes have more swelling to do. Don’t put too much into the trichs. It’s not done.

For SOG it might be easier to put them in their final pots from the start to reduce work when leading up to a flip to flower. I'm thinking about doing SOG for my next run and would put my plants in 3 gal fabrics and then let them veg for 4 week with no feeding except calmag since I'm using FFHF soil. Then switch to a lighter transition feed and see how they react.

SOG is already so much work because of individual plant care that changing all the pots halfway through would be for me, a nightmare.

Those plants are probably about 3 weeks from ready. And you have hairs all over your buds.

And what is the NPK for flowering in their schedule?

Is there any use of PK13/14 boosters or bud exploders?

What have you been feeding them additionally to the GHE?
