I am currently growing 2 california hash plants that are 51 days into flowering (attitude said finish time was 45-50 days). This was my first successful grow where I actually reached flowering (my last grow had powdery mildew thanks to my local dispensary) so I accidentally let them veg for too long, 33 days to be exact. Since my plants grew so large and I'm using only cfl's, the lower buds and leaves have not received ample lighting. A good amount of lower fan leaves on one of my plants are starting brown, curl up and die and the lower buds do not look too well either. The upper buds do not look affected but I am worried that they will soon. At the moment the trichs are about 75% cloudy and 25% clear but no amber. Since the lower parts of the plant are suffering should I chop it early before the top buds become affected? Should I just chop a couple of the top colas to give more light to the bottom ones? I basically just want to know if cutting it early would be worse than letting it continue to live and have lower leaves die off so that I can assure that it is mature enough. Thank you for your time in advance
