Mephisto Genetics White 'n' bubbly space bucket grow

Day 62 and she's yellowing off nicely. Was shocked to see quite a few Amber trichs under the scope but they are mainly on fan leaves and I haven't been gentle with this one so may be down to touch damage. Anyway water only flush from here on out. Reckon she's about two weeks off now. Nice frost coming in.

I gave her a thorough investigation this morning and am really confused by what I saw. From the look of her she seems very immature probably needing close to three weeks more to fatten up, there are about 15% orange hairs and she's kicking out new whites. The trichs tho are mad. 10% clear, 60% cloudy and 30% Amber. I've started a flush but not sure what to do now.
Do you think the wilt from overwatering maybe slowed her down? Even if you wish the buds were fatter, you've got 30% amber. If you let her go too much longer, you'd probably be looking at what amounts to a big green sleeping pill. If you take her now, she's probably gonna be pretty good daytime and evening smoke. Either way, she looks good.
So I relented and gave her Another last
feed. She's still kicking out loads of white pistols and my gut is just telling me that she's not ready regardless of Trichs. She's still got some weight to put on and no MORE are turning Amber so will push her on.
Amazed at how smell free this grow has been. I literally can't smell it from across the room however if I disturb it's buds I get an amazing burst of a mix of fruit, spice and pepper. Hope the smell comes through in the taste when cured.
Here she is day 67. Really seeing her fill out now, glad I gave her one last feed as she really took to it. 50cm high, 40 wide. Lots of bud sites packing on weight. Hoping for 2 oz from this. Anyone reckon I'll achieve that?
It's become obvious in hindsight that when checking the trichomes previously that although I thought I was checking bud, the plant was too immature and I was just seeing sugar leaves heavy with Amber. Checked her a few more times since she's filling out and she's now about 90% cloudy 1% Amber. Sugar leaves are about 30% Amber. Gave her another small feed as worried I started my flush too early. Half the amount of water thatI I would usually give her but should pull her though. Reckon another 10 days and harvest around 80
Gave her another last feed today. That will be the third "last" feed she has had but she keeps throwing out new pistols and still no real Amber on actual bud so why not push her. Going for the best yield I can achieve with her. Thought I would be chopping by now but day 80 onwards looks more realistic. Definately only water from here on out, as I'm happy with a 1-2 week flush window.
