Because its heavy sativa dom...
This is one issue I have been confused about. On Sensi Seeds website, it says that Skunk #1 is 35% Sativa and 65% Indica. Just by the way it is growing I know that is bullshit. Could they have inverted the numbers? Every other seed breeder with Skunk #1, The Pure, and Shit claims it to be 75% sativa - which seems correct based on my observations. So I suppose Sensi's info is wrong?

Some people say things that arnt true to make some sales... Lots of breeders will tell you their strains take x amount of days, I add 15+ days to their numbers. But in the end heavy sativa dom strains rarely get alot of ambers going on. imo

I have been lowering the humidity in the flower room every week. Right now I have it at around 45%. I am also thinking of dimming my ballast down to 400w then to 300w hoping this will help lower the temps and force the plant to finish up. Skunk #1 going on day #72 of 12/12. I really want to get these cut on day #77 so I can start my Afghani #1 crop. I'll keep waiting as long as it takes, but I am beginning to believe these trichomes will never turn amber. I have been plucking dried dead leaves from the buds already. It's been 13 days since flush. Nothing but ph water since.

Im at day 10 of flush. Think i started to soon. She doesnt really drink anything. All of the leaf tips are feeling dry and crispy. Feels like im killing her.
Probably dont need to flush that long in a hempy bucket filled with perlite flushed with 50ppm rainwater.

If they're at 71 days flowering, even adding 2 weeks to the flowering recommendation of Sensi puts you well past the safety zone for the plant to self-pollinate:

(according to the description on Sensi's website)
**Short flowering period (45 - 50 days)

Though that is a very short flowering period for a Sativa dominant plant.

Milky trich's are associated with head highs, like you would expect from a Sativa dominant plant.
Some have pushed similar plants to 90 and 100 days without amber showing.
But if it's self pollinating, it will only do so more as the days go by.
If you're satisfied with the yield it might just be time to chop to prevent more seeding.

It's really taking off now that the leaves are coming in.
I wish the red-flowered M1xBMF had come back, but it didn't make it.
That was some excellent smoke & meds.

One of the Casey Jones is turning into a monster and had to tie it down to even out the canopy:

I am 99% positive my Afghani #1 male pollinated them. I'm waiting till end of week 11 at least. A few are swelling more than others.
I am not chopping till they are done. I've been smoking seeded bag weed for 25 years - a few more is worth the extra weight and maturity of calyxes.

An easy way to tell if it's self-pollinated is to carefully remove the caylxes with s33ds forming in them and dissect them and see if there are hidden stamens inside.
That's the only way to know for sure, and it won't affect the plant.

*edit:
But I guess that would make too much sense, no?

I started using fermentation for co2 last week... Not sure how much its raising co2 levels bc my monitor is off calibration and needs to be sent in.
