I mean...literally these girls are at most a week away from chopping...buds are all fat, hairs sucked back in, trichs all cloudy with a trace of amber here and there on a couple girls...should i just let it play out?

If anything they are not showing enough symptoms. Near harvest plants should be losing N and yellowing and possibly showing other deficiencies, this is normal.

Question is, what do the buds look like? I have rarely seen a 'close to harvest' pic without some bud porn.

Here is one of my girls about a week or two out from cut. Yellowing leaves. Some canoeing and other crap. Nothing wrong, just the end of a life cycle.

And with any amount of amber I would be cutting, shoot for mostly cloudy.

If you're that close to harvest, I would just let it run it's course. It seems to be pretty common for people to drastically cut down on nutes, or to do away with them altogether and follow up with a flush, in the days leading up to chopping.

Personally, I wouldn't stress over it but that's just me - different strokes for different folks and all that.

I would let it run its corse, but like others said I would go ahead and go dark for a few days and harvest

Nobody in this thread said anything about darkness. It's myth anyway. In order for flowering plants to benefit off darkness they need to have 12 hours of light to work off of. 24-72 hours of darkness at harvest doesn't do anything positive.
