When do plants stop growing in means of yield?

I am trying to find out what is the exact point when plants stop growing in yield, as it will be my determining factor will I harvest my plants tonight. My plants have currently 90% of the hairs colored as amber, thricomes are about 80-100% cloudy. Many of the leaves and sugar leaves have turned to lime or yellow colour (and everything between the gradient of those two) and are full of thricomes. I sampled out the weed, and the effects were amazing. The strong smell has also significantly decreased. They look very ripe as well. Plants strain is NL x Skunk (Indica/Sativa hybrid), Big Bud. I'm on the week 9 (and 2 days), strain's harvest window is around 6-8 weeks in flowering. I had to postpone the initial harvest as I thought my plants were not developing in the right time window due the lack of phosphorus in the middle of the flowering cycle. However, I have not noticed any amber colour developing in the thricomes itself. Do my plants grow anymore in means of yield, or should I go for harvest?

2-3 weeks after you should have harvested them to smoke. This is for seed production. The quantity of THC will decrease after the harvest window and CBN will increase.

Reread your post if your not making seeds you need to harvest. Have you flushed or are you in super soil?

I have been flushing about 11 days. Not organic, but soil. So, cut down?

I found this information online that when resin glands are fully developed the buds stop growing in size. Is it meant
that once they are full milky-white?

You will likely have a good strong physical effect with 90-100% of the pistols amber and nearly all the trichs milky especially since it's an Indica hybrid.
