No smell - But healthy Plant

Hi Guys - First time growing, after 4 months I am harvesting this girl. She has signs of nutrient burn (I think?). I am quite new so be nice.
She had a strong smell, but after a bit it stopped. Now because of that, I fear she is dying and because of the burn I figured it's time to harvest her also due to the fact that 25% of the hairs are amber.

Question: If she doesn't have much of a smell, does that mean that it will get stronger when it dries and how do I know it is still good to smoke and has THC?
See pics below :)

Strain: Sour Diesel
Grow: Indoor Grow
Flowering Stage: 4-5 Weeks In
Filter: I use a Carbon Filter on 24/7 to absorb any smell. But surely this hasn't affected the plant lol. It is 4 feet above the plant where the grow light is.

I have cut it up now, and it smells like Lawn Cuttings :/

Thank you and stay safe during COVID 19!

I would have let that flower for a min of 3 more weeks. It's very premature. The smell is likely cause it's still wet

You have a nitrogen surplus and a phosphorous deficiency. It definitely needs more flowering time, get it to around 10 weeks of 12/12 and then see what it's smells like.

I agree! The plant is way too green in that stage of flower. What nutrients and how much are you feeding it?

I’m just gonna say that plant could have been done but it’s unhealthy. I really can’t explain why but just looks like you didn’t really take good care of it .

Trust me you can do bettter .... maybe it needed more light . It’s hard for me too know what you did over the last three months but it’s definitely not a happy lady

oh man - my feelings are heart hahaha
i think there is WAY too much heat in my tent. I have 2 fans in there, carbon filter, good light, but i think it's just still way too hot.

I either 1) gave it too much nutrients (possible) or 2) it is just WAY too hot. What do you guys do?
This is in a closet and the closet door is closed and inside there is my grow tent.

I had this problem one summer and altho it was a ball ache it did bring the temp down a bit. Freeze some ice in bowls or plastic bottles and put them in front your fan. You have do it every few hours tho.

Like Renfro says, too much Nitrogen gives you those dark green leaves. I used FF trio nutes at about 1/2 strength and worked pretty well. What's the temp?

About 85f. With this new little fan i put in on the side, it might be dropping.
Putting ice there each day is too much work tbh...

I also just bought some phosphorous from amazon.

This is the setup. As you can see there is a carbon filter up the top which recycles the air and brings it back in the bottom. There are 2 fans and the light is on 12/12.

This is in my closet.

Do I need to buy some CO2 bag or something? Any ideas welcome to keep it cool

Thank you for everyone's help
