its too hot in there, see the foxtails.
you need more air flow/exchange, or c02 and temperature controls.

Plant looks nice, why would you throw it away? If it is a sativa dominant plant, she will flower longer..you can consider yourself in midflower now or just past the midway mark..they pack on quite a bit of weight at the end. Leaves look perfect, she's frosty..not sure what the issue is or why think of throwing it away???

I wouldn't toss it. Just get your environment down to 25 and keep it going I've had a haze run 16 weeks and still not quite look done. It was a funky greenhouse seeds super silver haze and it turned out to be pretty nice. Just keep it chugging along

If your on week 6 and it's a sativa lol...
Sit back and relax man your in for a long stressful ride, I'd get the Temps down and airflow and fresh air from outside if you can. It will Replenish the co2 like chiqifella suggested.
Sativas take way longer, you might be in for another 4 to 8 weeks until harvest.
What strain is it?
Are you flushing already?
The last few weeks is where the magic happens pal. Be patient. Don't jump the gun and take your finger of the caplock button

If this is your first grow I'd be weary.
It's potent and if your girls are stressed this will throw them over the deep end lol. Your base nutrients have everything you need start to finish. They just sell these products to whoever had money, unless your peaking out your performance you don't need all these crazy additives like pk boosters or even co2 tanks . If this is your first run I'd keep it simple man. And if you do go ahead with the pk booster do like 1/4 dose seriously it's strong.....

Sweet bro, was worried cause i thought not using it might have caused them to stop growing. Minds at ease now... cooled the room down quite abit so hopefully see some changes in the next week or so might lock myself in there too and give them a co2 boost daily

1-HAZE-(ding ding ding!)
2 dont use pk boosters, ever
3 there are no money makers, you see how this one is working out for you right?
4 you wont need kitchen items if you choose a quality organic feed and follow the directions.
5 there are no tricks to growing, if so, we'd all be doing them and they wouldnt be called tricks.

OH NO! Here it comes again!
FLUSHING IS A MYTH!
Old school hippie "logic".....
I got asked about this in a PM by a member after seeing the disaster another thread became. He asked where to find books and papers on "flushing" and said he might try the "fade".
Here's my answer to him......I felt it needs to be seen,,,,,,again!
Your looking for post grad work. You would do better to search papers......The thing is, NOTHING in agriculture gets 'flushed" and that leads to little to no research in the area. You see, the thing is, the whole "idea" of "flushing is nonsense! Plants don't work that way! They do not take up nutrients or salts as most of you think of them! They do not "store" them in the sense you think of them! Not only that, but the nutritional "stores" in a plant are not in buds or budding or flowers! NO amount of "flushing" will "exchange" plant "stored" nutrition back "out" of the plant! Scientifically impossible by the way most of you guys understand......Ok, that's my word on "flushing". (No one listens to this in threads if they don't want to hear it or accept it.)
Now then, you propose the "FADE TO FINISH" method. Great idea in theory but, and this IS a BIG BUT! Remember when I said above that "the nutritional "stores" in a plant are not in buds or budding or flowers!" ? This shoots that theory in the ass right away. You see the main amount of stored nutrition is in either the roots and the rest in leaves and some in small amounts in transit in the phloam (the sap that actually moves the nutrients around the plant)......
Now when you "starve a plant" it will draw from it's self by actually breaking down the needed parts of it's self to do an "emergency" attempt to reproduce! (This can happen in certain plants even in veg! A kind of last ditch effort to continue the species.)
With that in mind you take the fact that the plant is not "moving" nutrients "out" of buds, but into them to speed growth and as fast as it can - "reproduce". This single minded process the plant now puts it's self on causes the plant to stress it's self. This self induced stress can, in many cases if done long enough, lead the plant to go bisexual, and produce "banana's" in a last ditch effort to reproduce and "carry on the line" and produce seeds...
Basically put, In reality you are moving nutrients that you're "attempting" to get rid of,,right to where your trying to remove them from! You are also stressing the plant in the way for "Herming" to actually happen easier!
I and many others that have tried to convey this actual plant science, are called everything you can think of and those 'impossible of understanding these facts", fight so hard against us that many of us have simply chosen to avoid the issue or don't fight to hard.
Anyway, there you are in as short and sweet and as simple/understandable as I can...
The thing is you have to understand Botany and Horticulture (and there are LOTS of subsections to those that are involved here) to truly put together the pieces of the puzzle to get your head wrapped around the idea that flushing and the "fade" don't work for what they are intended or alleged to actually do!
There you go Mods, nice, polite and to the point. (Sorry about the other thread Sunni)
There you go, Now have at it!
I'm stepping back to watch the circus.
Read this too!

Too much P, too early.....on that yellowing thing...
Cut back the P and tickle the N up a bit to slow that problem down.....Best you can do for that...
