Overcalculated on harvest should I resume nutes?

Growing Jack Herrer (Jock Horror) in a coco mix. My first grow.

I think I have some time to go since my trichnones are still either clear or milky (mostly clear) and none are amber yet. I may have overreacted with my calculated harvest time. I don't want to harvest too early.I stopped all nutes about 7 days ago and am thinking about going back to at least a 1/2 nute solution.

I want more of the heady high as opposed to the lethargic high, that's why I went with a sativa. Should I wait more fore some amber trichs?

Yep, go for 2 more weeks, if you still got clear you got some time. go 1/2 nutes is good, then another week of 1/8 nutes then possibly another week of pure water depending on how it looks. those leaves will provide food for the plant to live off of for a good while of flush.

To bring out the sativa high out of a plant the trichromes need to be under 50%. With a sativa dominant plant if your exceed 50% trichromes then the high becomes a full body high.

When you say;
"the trichromes need to be under 50%"
Do you mean under 50% amber or cloudy?

I definitely want to bring out the cerebral sativa high and avoid the "couch syndrome" in this batch.

Thanks

Harvest when the trichs are cloudy to clear and ya will get the sativa high. Wait for amber and ya get the couch lock high.
