the hairs changing color toward the end it completely normal...you ever smoked weed with all white hairs?the hairs will start turning a brown/orange/red color and start pulling back in...that means it knows its too late to polinate and near harvest time.you will need a small powered handheld type microscope to check the trichs...close up they look like little mushrooms...when you harvest is based on what type of high you want...clear trichs means its not ready...all cloudy trichs will give you a head high..more cerebral..then after cloudy they change to a amber color.amber color means more couchlock type high..you want a mix of about 50/50 cloudy to amber...here is a pic that might help...but you wont be able to see this with a naked eye

ive had mine change like that...ive had a plant that the whole plant changed colors in a matter of hours.it will keep flowering...just keep the RH down and dont forget to flush for 1-2 weeks before you harvest it....a couple pics would really help to give much more info

thats wayyyy to much N during flowering...the first number...you want less N during flowering..nitrogen is for veg growth...P and PH for flowering.im using a 10-30-20 during flowering and a 20-20-20 during veg...that seems to keep them in what they need without overfeeding
