time for the chop?

since flushing, my plant has developed what i think are both pottasium and magnesium defficiencies. i expected yellowing leaves due to the plant using the resources stored within, rather than uptaking nutrients through the roots. however, some of the thc laden leaves very close to the buds are also yellowing, and i am presuming i wont be able to use these leaves for anything if they go yellow and drop off?
i was going to chop her down on thursday/friday, but was wondering what you all thought. should i chop her today? the leaves are getting more yellow by the day...

1st pic is of whole plant
2nd & 3rd pics of main cola
4th pic is of a side branch bud

thanks for any feedback you may have?

Its definately real close, you can see that their are "red hairs" and the buds look like they have fattened up nicely. The only thing to work on now is how the trichomes look, this is going to be your personal choice. What strain are you growing, I'm sorry if it says above but i only looked at the pics

cheers for reply ngt. this plant is a lowryder #2. not a favourite i know but ive been quite pleased with it this far..
i dont have any magnification so im just riding on intuition really. she seems to of stopped fattening out, and just seems to be dying slowly..
my dehumidifier came today (humidity raced up over last month cus of all the rain) so im all ready to chop and dry...

tbh, i wouldnt mind some crop which doesnt grab you by the balls and slam you into a 2 hour daydream..

sounds like its ready to go

That looks like some excellent bud man. Give it a couple more days let reddish/brown up just a little on the hairs. Thats what i normally go by(since i dont have a jewelers loop aswel).

i know it doesnt look like it but about 80% of the pistols are already red/brown..

just sharpening my knife...

looking good morp.
How long have they been in flower?

i guess if they covered in thc. Well done morp, lovely looking? that main cola is huge!!!

she's chopped and hanging... pics to come in my journal...
