Usually white widow is supposed to bloom from 8 to 10 weeks depending on who produced the seed. Yellowing like yours is is generally a sign of impending completion. Check your breeder or seedbank site BEFORE you do any Nitrogen feeding!
Plants in bloom need only minor nitrogen, check your nute labels and you will see that they many have NO N in them, rarely more than a 2.0 since N is for vegetative growth. Removing leaves is not a good idea unless they are diseased or dieing as they are the second half of the plants' food factories.
Only close examination of the trichomes will tell when it is harvest time any while we can see very nice buddage, we cannot see if the trichs are cloudy or turning amber.
Looking nice and juicy, enjoy.

I checked Sensi Seeds site out and they 45-50 days. I'm on 56.I figure I have to give or take a few days on what they say. No info on how to feed though. Thanks for the reply.

I would check the trichs daily and depending on the high you want, harvest based on how much amber you see.

I've grown a lot of Sensi skunk 1, was it the fems or regs, I've never had one go over 55 of 12/12, and the one that did had bud rot, but it had a very strange mutation, it sort of topped it self and the top cola just went to the size of a soccerball, no shit, about 8 inches wide/high. I just caught it in time though, and its suppose to be resistant!
but yours do look like another week or so

Haven't got a photo of that one as it was a while ago, but here's a couple of recent ones, the first was just a huge budding pheno, I got nearly 6 oz of her in a 8 litre pot. The other one just grew a stubby main and fat secondaries, which I had a few times.
got another one growing now, they are always very similiar for me, very nicely structured plants which branch really well, the fans never seem to block like some plants do, you can just leave it to grow without cutting any nodes and pretty much every branch will be nice.
i'll post pics in a min just haing issues with my ballast or bulb, past hour,the lights gone off for a couple seconds then restarted, happened 3 times now and don't need the light stressing my girls out.
any thoughts on it is appreciated

Here's the bigger pheno
and the stubby pheno I've had her prob 4-5 times, I reckon the socerball one I had a few years back was a mix of the two
The pics were taken a few days before harvest,that's why not many fan leaves left

600w HPS, MH for veg, the stubby pheno stinks of bubblegum after a cure and is my fav smoke, def more cerebral, but its got a high leaf to calyx ratio, but the leaves are sugar coated anyways.
the bigger pheno has really chunky buds, has a strange smell, and is easy as hell to trim, it's just bud.
by your photos I'd say your prob about a week away, maybe 10, the pistils are always all brown when mine come down, but that'll take u to around 65 days and ive never left mine that long, so dunno what happened. Definitely looks like Sensi's skunk.
and looks nice too bud, I'd leave the leaves on there unless its blocking buds or mostly dead.
usually last few days Id strip the plant over 3-4 days or so, so it has atleast one full day of having nothing but bud left. It'll speed up the drying and help with the flush.

Not bad, but they really need N, or they will never reach their full potential and as you have experienced, will lose their productive leaves prematurely. A healthy plant has green normal looking leaves until harvest, like this -
My guess is you've been hitting them with bloom foods which is (the typical) recipe for disaster and a popular albeit misguided practice. Read post #1501. This is what real gardening is all about - https://www.rollitup.org/advanced-marijuana-cultivation/267989-uncle-bens-gardening-tweeks-pointers-76.html
As journaled at another site HB's best results (by group consensus) is the plant that got the high N food, Foliage Pro 9-3-6, all the way through. I use a slow release 18-4-9 with micros, Polyon, from start to finish.

I'm sorry, but I completely disagree with keeping your leaves green till harvest, if they fade and at harvest most leaves are dead or yellow, trust me the smoke is a lot better and smoother than pumping the plant full of N when it doesn't need it.
theplant stores up enough N, fair enough if ur 2nd week into flowering and the plant yellows, feel free to give it some N.
but He's on day 55, if he's been using nutes, he's should be flushing, so telling him to give N is wrong.
If u don't know what ur tlking about u should shut the fuck up, and it tell someone something that could fuck up their smoke!
the fact is that the pic u show, that plant is over fertilised.
