Just wondering how I'm doing. It's day 49 and the buds look like they're thickening up. Any tips for the last 2 to 3 weeks before harvest time?

Depends.
If you're trying to grow fine-looking dope, you're nailing it. Not many green beans, though.
Now is a time to panic. You don't need to, but if you did, this would be a time. You got purdy colors and trichome helmets.
Your next questions will probably be about flushing and 'is it ready'. Flushing is bro science. Some do it, some don't. Listen to your heart.
This is good for harvest time.

A question about flushing for whomever wants to answer.
I look at the leaves and they are doing what some plants do at the end. They turn colors, die, and fall off. That's because the flowers are sucking all the nutrients out of them.
If the plant were still getting enough nutrients through feeding, would the flowers still be sucking nutrients from the leaves?

Thumb for you Allenpro and your comment "You ever seen a farmer flush their grow?" I'm sitting here trying to think of a smarmy comeback. Alas, I am unable. So, let's google it.
I am finding the answer to be the same we are coming up with. Some do, some don't. Something else I read was flushing does not flush the plant, it flushes the soil. Your comment about plants stopping nutrient uptake from the roots suggests flushing is as beneficial as continued feeding because the roots only care about water. As long as the roots have good water during the last couple/few weeks, whatever happens is good.
Do farmers flush? I think that would be impossible, using the term as we do. We usually mean to give boat loads of water until it runs out the bottom of the pot. Farmers can't do that. Can they give plain water to save the cost of nutes? Sure.
So, if your comment is true that plants don't pull nutrients at the end, flushing or continued nutrients is growers' choice.
The next question might be at what point does a plant stop feeding from the roots? When it starts feeding from the leaves?

Flowers stealing from the cookie jar again.1 percenter's they are. Steal from a neighbor if the bank's to far. Flushing what, let the flowers take the rest of the nutes from the pot too. When it gets done sucking the leaves dry it will finish up on what's left in the pot. Wane a little on the water until harvest. Makes drying time faster and less chance of hay smell. Science not fiction, my brother in law is full of shit too.

Farmers that produce food for human consumption only follow the withholding period that is required for what ever they are spraying or feeding the crop with. Flushing in soil IMO is near impossible when you think about it you would have to wash away all the dirt so you know there's nothing that the plant is absorbing except water... all I would do is feed it straight water the last scheduled before the chop. With DWC etc Different brand nutes recommend different time frames, some say it doesn't matter some say 3 days some say 7....
And you doing really good. 🤙ðŸ¾
