Default Close to harvest but buds are turning yellow (not just fan leaves).

I know it's natural for the fan leaves to turn yellow, and they have a few days ago... but now the leaves that have trichomes start about half way... they have lost half or more of their green too. I wish I had pics for you guys but I need to get a new camera. The strain is early bud so it's supposed to be an indica/sativa mix (mostly indica I think) and the buds are nice and purple, but I want purple and green, not purple and yellow.... right? The trichomes have just turned mostly cloudy and the hairs are about 70% red/brown. Should I chance it and go for amber trichomes, or chop it down now before all of the green is yellow?

I appreciate your willingness to help but I'm not looking for a diagnosis. That's why I didn't post this in the plant problems forum.
It's one plant. I stopped giving nutes two weeks ago because I thought it would be ready to harvest by now..... that's why it's yellowing. I'm looking to see what you guys think about when I should harvest. I don't have any pics and can't get any pics but I thought I described it well enough.
Here are three options I can think of:
1.Chance it by letting it finish and risk having purple buds with yellow leaves.
2. Cut it down now with just cloudy trichomes and 70% red/brown hairs.
3. Give it nutes to give it some life back (but then I'd have to wait a lot longer for the nutes to clear out.

What would you guys do?

Chop it, dry it, smoke it. Needs more Nitrogen sounds like, or maybe girdled. A 10 day flush is enough for me to flush all nutes before harvest and plants do start to yellow really fast.
