About two weeks left and spotted this yellowing today is this something for me to worry about or just carry on as I am?

i wouldn't be too awfully concerned, but i think you have a little more than two weeks left, maybe more like 4

Two weeks puts them at 82 days and these supposedly take 75 days to finish I was giving them an extra week at 82 days. Giving them 4 weeks would be 96 days do you think they'd need that long the other problem is they're really starting to give off a good strong smell

the breeders estimates are always short, looks like you still have a lot of white pistils to me. keep an eye on your trichs, you can get a 60/100 jewelers loupe off of amazon or ebay for under 10 bucks, that's the final authority to me. the state of the plant in general matters, but when the trichs are done, they're done

If they go another 4 weeks do I need to be concerned about the yellowing?

it's a little late to do too much about it now, most of the time that develops during the stretch. they're putting out a lot of new growth during that time, and still need some N to feed it. you should keep feeding it what you were feeding it during veg, a little stronger than your veg mix, till you see it start to produce pistils, then over a couple of feeding transition to bloom nutes.
you don't want to give it too much N now that it's started flowering, but you might want to feed it just a little stronger than you are

Checking them over today and I've spotted mould on the critical I've picked it off but looking at this think it will spread humidity has been really high recently and I don't think this was getting enough air circulation with all the leaf it had produced. Should I chop this now early or keep it going and risk losing it all? I've already picked off what was moulded.

i'd trim a few leaves out and improve air circulation. i'd let it keep going, but keep an eye on it

Another little update I've taken down the critical due to finding three other areas of mould and it was a pain due to all the leaf as you can see on pic 1 I'll do alright from it. The amnesia is still going pic 2 keeping a close eye on this after having the problems I did with the critical have spotted this black spot pic 3 today on the amnesia never seen this before is it anything to worry about?

The critical was the one with the leafhoppers right? They can weaken a plant and make it more susceptible to molds and a whole bunch of other thing

.. it's a shame you took it down, should have listened to Roger (I say that a lot) because there's ways you can fight it and you could have got it to harvest with a simple spraying of baking soda! Good luck on the other one amigo!

* on that third picture above I'm not sure if I'm seeing some bug damage or not, have you checked under your leaves recently

Yeah I've been looking over this very closely and I can't find anything. The mould was taking over on the critical so I felt I had no choice it was only a week to 2 early and yes that was the one that got savaged by critters. I'm thinking I've only got a week or two left on the amnesia I hope anyway as mother nature is being cruel at the minute there's another pic attached of her close up.

Here's a couple of better shots

Baking soda works, I think it's a tablespoon per gallon but please check it as I haven't used it in a while, it will get you to harvest but you got to spray it heavy every couple days, this might help if you have issues with the other plant

If I were in your situation I would start a routine treatment cycle alternatively spraying baking soda and a fungicide on a regular rotating basis, in some situations that's required whether we like it or not (and no one does) but I think it would greatly help you. Neem oil can also be used but I don't use it on flowering plants much past 2 or 3 weeks into flower as I find it gives the bud an off taste and flavor

Ill be taking this beauty down in the next couple of days the weather and temps are dropping quickly especially over night temps and getting steady 96 percent humidity levels. I want to thank all of you for your advice and help you guys are awesome.
