Yeah, the plant is done when the plant is done. If you have milky white trich's and amber ones as well, then she's done. there's no way to slow here down. You're on 12/12 for good, and you can't change that without stressing the plant and possibly ruining your harvest..
Are you buds not as filled in with bud mass as you'd like or something?

weird question, but are you checking the trichs with the microscope directly under the HPS lights? I did this for awhile until i realized that the HPS will actually make some clear and white trichs look amber at certain angles. Take the plant away from the light and then check the trichs, or snip a small sugar leaf and bring it into a different room and then check.
Shit Thats a good point BK I think you may be right...you get mad rep for that

Thanks.. I would hate to see you chop a plant too soon. let me know if that was it!
took sugas leaves off every plant, its wierd, only one of them has amber trichs the rest seem to be right on schedule. the only diff is this plant is hit on a11 sides with a 1000 watts,its in the middle of a 4x8 tray, and it was in veg a lot longer....was a mother

Mother plants and plants with longer veg time can (not always) mature quicker than younger plants. Glad you didn't chop the plants w/o amber trichs! Good luck on the rest of your grow!
