had a bit of a lockout issue and had to order sledgehammer, fedex couldn’t find my house so it was a few days late and now 1 of the ladies has almost no leaves on it, she prolly has 2 weeks left but with little to no leaves would it do more harm to let her keep going?

i hope so, just the past hour i lost about 8-12 more leaves lol
I will have a look and i will see
I had a look on the internet it very could be that the leaves are dying because its up to it final few weeks it didnt say if it will be bad for the plant it said its diverting it’s energy to making flowers so it should last another week or two .but how ever there were other causes as well but its not any of them

@Aussie_autos @HMGRWN do you know if its ok to clip some buds early like that- like through dif stages of the trich development

Not sure about that
First, @Vtbudz is right. You can cut off buds as they develop. Only 1 or 2 at a time, every 3-5 day time frame in hydroponics (i.e.: coco, dwc, rDWC, hp circulation, aeroponics, etc.) or 5-7 day time frame in soil/organics. Try, if possible, to take opposing branches. You can harvest a single plant for up to 6 weeks, if large enough, without shocking the plant to the point of herm.

Sorry to bud into your conversation but it’s perfectly fine to take samples many people do split harvesting where they take the top buds off and lower their lights to plump up the lower buds. I purposely let some of the bottom little buds grow and cut em off to give to my kids as samples, it gives me an idea on the plants quality and keeps the kids off my azz 
I can have 2 pounds cured ready to go in the closet and they’re still in my room watching my every move hoping I will give em a fresh bud

Yep. A lot flush the final 2 weeks. And end up with leaves like yours 
You are at the end and just finishing. Congrats at making it to the end. You have some nice buds in there
