Depending on the high you want you can chop now or wait for more couch effect...

My wwxbb is normally done in 7 weeks, so that surely should be finished.

Beautiful plants, but i think your a ways from being finished. I believe you would benefit from finishing a 9th week. Then take another look.

so you are saying to feed this last week then harvest by the 10th week?
was thinking of doing a 12 day flush starting now or tomorrow...

With the amount of white hairs and the 30% clear trichs you say is there, yes id run a 9th week and possibly longer. Im not sure what you mean by flushing. If you mean doing one more nute watering then just watering with clear ph clear water till harvest then thats a good option. How many waterings are you getting a week?

Yes the trichs are clear now but from what i have read, even if harvesting in 10-14 the trichs are still turning cloudy and amber no matter what
So i thought it would be good to start now by the time i harvest most if not all trichs will be milky...
When I say flush, I do mean just RO water and nothing else.
The plants are in 5 gallon pots.. ive been usually give them 1/2 gallon every other day(starting to think that was not enough) The temp in my tent is almost always low 80s, mid 70s on cooler days.
There was this interesting thread about flushing, drowning the root for 10-14 days to force the plant into fermentation.. making the buds smoke-able in a shorter amount of time https://www.rollitup.org/t/the-truth-about-flushing.409622/

Use boiling water instead, it speeds up the process
