Looks like some tasty bud to me.
No worries, looks like you only have a few weeks left anyway.

Is it even alive? I'm clueless as what to do? Should I take all the leaves off? Week 9.5 SSH, Newbie first grow. She's turning a dead yello. Thank you for your time and knowledge.

What the heck is happening? Did you completly remove all its nutrients??

At this point keep all the leafs and harvest soon as she's ready. Should be any day.
Hopefully your bud quality isn't too badly compromised

Last feed was 7 days ago at half strength. I was doing a scheduled 1/2 feed, 1/2 feed, water and molasses. Every 2 days I was under the impression that I needed to start flushing her, so yes I discontinued nutrients, just plain ph water this past week. This morning I was not happy w/how fast she's changing so I feed her 1/2 nutrients again. FF BB 3tsp, TB 1/2 tbsp and Cha ching 1/4. pH. 6.3 ppm. 325 EC 650 Run off pH. 6.2, ppm. 790, EC. 1.580 Man..... I'm so frustrated and bummed out about it. Can she bounce back? Much respect and appreciated.

She definitely was hungry haha
Maybe heavier on the nutes during flower, then when you cut her off she will have some reserves to live off.
You have a scope to look at the trichs? At 9.5 weeks flower you should be able.to cut almost any day

The other two plants look alittle hungry too, but not as far along in flower. I would up their ppm

That right there is a magnesium deficiency on your plant

I hope these pictures can help, as it was a difficult task. Hands aren't as steady as they use to be. Your information has been the best so far, regardless of the endless reading and video searches I've researched. Very appreciated indeed. It has been a exhausting and puzzling grow, but with help from people like you I am sure to get it close to right. Haha I'm no green thumb for sure...

I am still rather new at this as well, but I would keep feeding her. I don't see many amber trichomes in your pics.
Also, many here will tell you not to flush. I didn't flush with my first harvest, and I have no complaints with the smell, taste or quality.

Agreed, I see no amber yet.
She has a week minimum, if not 2 weeks
As for the flush debate... For me, when I was in soil, I "flushed" with sledgehammer twice in flower. (This is just a soil rinse, lots of water combined with sledgehammer, then straight distilled water to rinse)... this removed excess salt buildup.
After that, I give a good feed because she will be hungry.
Then when harvest comes... I dont feed for the last week... this is because the soil will normally have nutes leftover, and also I like to "fade" my plants for bag appeal. This done by flushing, and dropping temperatures. It helps bring out the really vibrant colors like purples and reds.
I cannot attest to whether it helps with smoke, and flavor by "flushing nutrients from the flower", but it 100% makes prettier buds haha
(So long as you don't take it too far and starve your plant to death... similar to this lol)

Thank you
Lesson learned.... haha
Ok, I will feed full strength next feed, 2 days from now. I do hope she bounces back from this starvation, she is such a fighter. Would you include silica to feed as well as they say it helps w/stress. Last question Haha! Much Mahalo's greatly appreciated growmiez, I've learned a considerably alot more on this forum about my problems in one day than I have the past month...

I haven't looked much into it so I couldn't say.
When I was in soil I used the FF trio, plus open sesame, beasty bloom, cha-ching, cytoplus (seaweed extract+humic acid), and molasses.
I also occasionally added mycos & azos (originally in the soil mix & in the feedings) for extra microbial bacteria to help with nutrient accessibility.

Whats the TDS or PPM of the water when you feed?

This morning's feed ppm 325, 1/2 feed. Run off ppm 690.
Regular feed, full is around 700-800 w/ cal-mag.

Bump it up to 1000 for the other two girls.
You should have gave the center one atleast 700ppm this morning
