Chop ? .... Absolutely not.

Minimum 2 or MORE weeks easy. Pistils will turn and more bud maturity will happen .
Find a loupe , magnifying glass or whatever and look at trichomes on “ calyx “ NOT LEAVES.
Triches mature at different times on different parts of plant , but the calyx is the area to judge.

Keep feeding her . And let it keep going.

So i conclude that i have to stop the ferts now, since i am 2 weeks from harvest right?
And i forgot to mention, it is an outdoor plant.

Yeh from my experience I always stop nutes at week 6 and feed her pure water to give them a good flush out. Just make sure you check the pk levels on your plain water

That plant has WEEKS to go still most likely 3ish, maybe more. I would not stop feeding it, it already has yellowing leaves which means it's using its own nutrients to make your buds. Otherwise it looks nice and healthy but needs way more time to get you some nice properly matured buds that will taste good and do the job well.

Seriously needs minimum 2 more weeks. But it still could be more then that depending on how fast it matures.

You can see how much it's grown in the last 2 weeks and it's still growing. It's still got some fresh pistils, but not as many which tells me it is probably starting to wind down. Once the buds stop growing bigger outwardly though they still usually need about 2 more weeks to finishing swelling getting denser inside. During that time is also when they finish maturing, and pack on more weight. I've watched sturdy branches get heavier and bend over in matter of a few days.

Don't underestimate how much work your plant is doing still. I'm sad that you haven't been feeding it the previous 2 weeks. That plant is working hard trying to make buds for you and your starving it.

I emplore all new growers to have patients and wait it out. You've put all this time and usually money into growing these plants. Why cut them off a couple weeks short if actually being done. Unless you've got some sort of life emergency or an unsolvable plant problem let them finish ripening. That's what you want I promise. If you cut plants early you miss out on yield and potancy, and sometimes even flavor.
