Anyones Indicas go 50% amber in Southern Oregon area?

Hi I'm on the last week of October outdoors. All my Indica plants leaves are yellow, the buds are swelled up, and the hairs have turned brown and deep red. Problem is most plants have barely any amber. Also another issue is been getting bud rot more often. Been finding these tiny worms in some of the buds. Will they cause your trichomes not turn amber? Also the temps are getting down in the low 30s for most of the week. Will the cold nights kill the plants and make them go amber? I need the couch lock for my insomnia so I cannot harvest. I'm very confused why with Indicas, why I would have to go into November to get the couch lock? I thought only sativias went into November and December.

Honestly I haven't found anything thats truly done at that latitude until October 31st at best and thats not easy to do outside of a greenhouse.
I wanted to harvest around October 31st but tomorrow their calling for temps in the teens! I know my plants can take mid 20s but I don't think I should test the teens!

I think I'm really happy with my first outdoor grow. I don't consider this to be no means a early harvest. I think they are done most of them are showing other signs they are done and basically slowly dying. All the fan leaves have died and its been done swelling for about a week and a half. I tested out the herijuana over two weeks ago and was very sedative and had practically no amber. So I'm not sure if you have to get the plant mostly amber to put you sleep or if that is in fact a rumor. Unfortunately if my greenhouse wasn't so big I could of heated it. For some stupid reason when I designed it, I was mostly thinking of having alot of airspace in case my plants got 13ft high. But landed up fucking me in the end a bit. Really been a rough growing season been fighting it for the last 2 months.

I am thinking about leaving one plant out there to see if it survives though into November.

Any pics?
Yup I have pics right before harvest. I harvested the top half of most plants but left some good colas to mature more. The cold last night didn't seem to mess with them too much. And tomorrow night I believe it's going back in the 30s-40s. But yes here's some pics!
